 The Final Boss of Sword Master |
 Red Falcon from Super C |
Submitted by Brigade Delbrack.
FO's Comment: Another thing about the Sword Master boss - That picture is from the opening cinema scene. But when you fight him in the actual final battle, he looks a lot like the final boss of ActRaiser 2. The way you have to attack him is similar, too. |
 Ark from CIMA: The Enemy |
 Raven from Fire Emblem |
Submitted by Codie Martin.
FO's Comment: And I still say they all look like Adol Christen from Ys. |
 Orusoh from Metal Combat |
 Bono from U2 |
FO's Comment: Why do I get the feeling this one's not coincidence? |
 Agahnim from A Link to the Past |
 Orko from He-Man |
FO's Comment: Doesn't it look like Agahnim could be Orko's older brother? |

 Ami Mizuno from Sailor Moon |

FO's Comment: Holy crap, they DO look alike! |
 Hotaru Tomoe from Sailor Moon |

  Kat & Ana from Wario Ware Inc. |
 The Powerpuff Girls |
Submitted by Deven711, "Kat and Ana sort of look like the Powerpuff Girls. They have 1 or 2 ponytails and they have stripes in the middle of their shirts. Don't tell me that the guys at Nintendo actually like the Powerpuff Girls!"
FO's Comment: Hard to say if it's coincidence. Ana's hair looks like the bow on the leader. |
 Kuwabara from Yu Yu Hakusho |
 Shinji from Neo Super Dodge Ball |
Submitted by Will B., "This is one that
I've had in mind for a long time, but I wasn't able to find suitable pictures
until now. Long story short, the first time I saw Yu Yu Hakusho, the character
designs in the early part of the series reminded me heavily of the Nekketsu
Kouha Kuniokun (River City Ransom, Super Dodge Ball, etc.) video game series. In
particular, Kuwabara makes me think of a goofier, red-haired Riki. "
FO's Comment: I thought he looked a lot more like Shinji than Riki. Picture of Shinji from RCHS Class Reunion.

 Johnny-5 from Short Circuit |
 R.O.B. |
Submitted by Deven711, "They both have the same heads. And something with wheels at the bottom. Strange!"
FO's Comment: R.O.B.'s head scares me. |
 Mario |
 Saddam Hussein |
Submitted by Deven711, "Well, they both have mustaches. But they're on different sides. Kinda strange. But that's not all..." |
 Grassland King from SMB3 |
 Osama Bin Laden |
Submited by Deven711, "This is just freaky. The King of Grassland is turned into a dog, mankind's best friend, by Larry Koopa and Mario, who looks like Saddam Hussein, has to change him back by infiltrating Larry's airship (which is also kind of a warship, too). After defeating Larry, Mario changes the king back. There could be a connection to SMB3 and "The War on Terrorism" somehow. It's really strange."
FO's Comment: Strange, indeed. |
 Weedle from Pokemon |
 Wiggler from Super Mario World |
Submitted by Deven711, "Their names both begin with "W", they have big noses, and they both "look" friendly, but start attacking once you attack them. Strange."
FO's Comment: Don't really have anything to add.

  Chip from Chip's Challenge |
 Bill Gates |
Submitted by A H, "This one may be a bit obscure. The character Chip is the protagonist from the game Chip's Challenge, originally published for the Atari Lynx. Well, Microsoft has owned the rights to the game for a while, and the game was released with Windows Entertainment Pack 4. At some point in time I noticed that Chip's haircut resembled Bill Gates's. Now that I think about it, I doubt it's coincidence. The image displayed when you've finally beaten the game is a portrait if I've ever seen one. Of course, it was only after I beat the game that I was able to see said picture, and it's a long game, so for years I was only given the 32x32 tile (also included) to conjecture by. The tile looks just enough not
like Gates to leave a person wondering, but it is about as close as you can get at such a low resolution with 16 colors."
FO's Comment: If Microsoft owns the rights to the game, then it's probably not coincidence. |

 Wang Tang from Power Stone |  Goku from Dragon Ball Z |
