Here's my top 3, because I'm too lazy to do 10. 3. Sceptile/Banjo & Kazooie (I couldn't choose which one I wanted more, but I guess Pokemon has enough reps already.) 2. Shantae (I haven't played her games yet, but I have seen some footage of her most recent game, Pirates' Curse, and I think she'd be a fun character.) 1. Shovel Knight (If you've played his game, you'll know why.)
