Favorite video game mascot?

There's really too many to list so a poll is out of the question, but what's your favorite video game mascot?

 

To me it feels like, aside from the classics that are still around today (Mario, Sonic, etc.), the idea of video game mascots has sort of died off. However, the recently independently reformed Kojima Productions has their own full-fledged mascot, Ludens:

I'm still a fan of Mario and Sonic and all those guys, but the fact people are still willing to make new video game mascots, combined with his kickass design, makes Ludens my new favorite.

I'm a fan of the old school, but does Neptune from Hyperdimension Neptunia count?

 

I'm not sure what would count for Idea Factory, if they have one. That's another thing about trying to list things out in a poll or anything, some could be argued as being or not being a company's mascot. A lot of things aren't as clear cut as Mario/Nintendo, Sonic/SEGA, Mega Man/Capcom like back in the day.

 

Pikachu.

 

This doesn't feel like enough of a discussion to be here, really... mostly since I have nothing to say but answering the question, personally.

You could always give an explanation. It doesn't need to be super in-depth or anything.

I'm not sure how much Pokemon spin offs I've actually played, so in the end, I can't be quite as sure how overdone things actually are, but on the other hand, it's this: They branched out to more than just video games a lot sooner and noticeably than other companies/series mascots with Pikachu being Ash's starter in the anime, and I think it's adorable.
