4. Chubby Cherub
What could be more amusing then doing battle with Mario or Sonic then with a flying, slightly over-weight cherub whose main attack is to throw hearts at them? Chubby Cherub was released in 1985 for the Nintendo Entertainment System and also the 'hero' try to rescue his friends kidnapped by a suitable evil bad guy. The cherub would be a fun character to use due to his flying ability, his love of eating vegetables (healthy eating is good kids!) and as I mentioned his 'attack' his shooting hearts at his enemies. If angled well it could be a really cute but hilarious return of an old Nintendo stalwart and would have people cracking up at the sight of him.
