I particularly enjoy his attachment of “-icus” to the ends of words and even names (“Simonius”). Kid Icarus is one of the most sympathetic figures in the show and his appearance remained consistent with his game-appearance as well with a slight alteration to his hairstyle to make it fall over his right eye.

Gary Chalk who did his voice would later voice Guts Man in the Mega Man cartoon series in 1995 (incidentally Guts Man has a quick appearance in the episode Mega Trouble for Megaland).

Beyond the fact that he lost the bandage over his bellybutton and his skin was coloured a strange light blue, he was more or less the same character. KING HIPPOĪnother character who wasn’t too heavily altered for his game appearance was King Hippo. One of my favorite little tidbits about the character is that he actually disguised the eggplant on his magic staff in Nightmare on Mother Brain Street. He’s a memorable character, always bungling and dropping vegetables everywhere. Probably one of the closest matches with the original game appearance, Eggplant Wizard took the role of Kid Icarus’ (Pit’s) nemesis in the show. Wily went entirely unaltered for his cartoon appearance (and incidentally his voice-actor, Ian Corlett, would voice Mega Man in his self-titled cartoon series in 1995). I especially love his addition of Mega in front of sentences and his rolled R’s in certain episodes. He’s the right size, his helmet is sort of similar with the exception of the vizor and at least he actually has arm-cannons and not a gun like he tended to have in the early box-artwork.ĭoug Parker’s voice performance as the character splits opinions but I personally love it. Now not nit-picking on the colour you could pose the argument that Mega Man in Captain N is far more similar to his original appearance than how he was depicted on the American cover-art for Mega Man 1 and Mega Man 2. Now, admittedly the first two Mega Man games had already come out in the US when the show started airing, but my guess would be that this design of Mega Man was approved while the show was still in pre-production and this is why it was never corrected. His outfit is a little off but essentially what people always react badly to is his colour. Probably the video-game (dis)similarity that angry fanboys are always quick to jump on is Mega Man. In addition to the previous post, I forgot the one appearance by a Dodongo from Moblins are Revolting, but because the early Dodongo just looked like a Triceratops anyway, I don’t think you missed anything there. Those of you who liked my The Legend of Zelda Monster Round-up might enjoy this. I’m sure this has been done before but I wanted to compare the Captain N characters once again with their video-game counterparts to see just how much did hey differ from their original versions.
