Forum:If Mario didn't exist, which Nintendo series main character do you think would be the franchise's headliner?

In my opinion, if Mario never existed, Nintendo's headliner would be Link. The Zelda series is the third best selling of Nintendo's franchises. The second is Pokemon, but a chunk of people don't know that Pokemon is Nintendo. I've heard all over that Zelda games are AMAZING and the series has even been higher rated than Mario's.

Bonus: Since Link would be bumped up to first due to Mario's absence, the number two would be Samus.

I think that it would definitely be Link, myself, but Kirby is also a distinct possibility.
