10 Sidelined Nintendo Characters That Deserve Their Own Game

3. Captain Falcon

Speaking of falcons... Let€™s face it €“ Captain Falcon is totally a secondary character at this point. He's had his own games, but that was many years ago and we haven't seen one since the Gamecube days. People go crazy for the Captain in Smash Bros, so he clearly still has a following. Unfortunately, while F-Zero is an amazing series, the last game didn€™t sell very well, possibly being the reason Nintendo has left their gut-punching bounty hunter in the dust. But isn€™t it high time he made a comeback? Clearly Nintendo fans are into the idea of zero-G racing like in the latest Mario Kart, so surely a new F-Zero is on the cards? And even if not, Captain Falco has proven to be just as awesome on foot as he is behind the wheel. Imagine an action-adventure where you hunt down bad guys and punch them into outer-space? That€™s a ten out of ten prospect that Nintendo would be crazy not to explore.
