This is fantastic! I had not even considered the video game genre. With so many video games being made into movies, it is a genre that has to be considered with every bit as much respect as literature, movies and stage.
I had to look this character up, but to say the least he is one that has such an appeal that his very character has propelled him into being more prominent than he was originally intended, sort of like Star War's Boba Fett character.
