Nuff said

The silhouette was quite a bit for a 14 year old.

Im dating myself, but Jill of the Jungle. All 12 pixels of her!

Don’t quite remember if it was high school or college for me….

Princess Daphne from Dragon's Lair. I'm so very old.

I've got to go with Sophia Hapgood.

It was Led from Septerra Core.

For me, maybe Razor from Maniac Mansion, even though I never made it more than ~30 mins into that game. My kid brain didn't understand the funny tingly feeling but years later I realized, "oh duh, hot punk babe".

There was also Princess What's-Her-Name, though she wasn't much of a character.

In terms of characters with actual detailed personality, the first big one was probably Rinoa from FF VIII. I was the same age as her when I played it.

Battletoads The Dark Queen

Would 1,000 percent accept being stepped on

I was convinced, until the end of the game, there had to be some way to bring her back.

I'm a little embarased to say--I mean I was a preteen boy at the time--but I spent way too many hours fantasizing and lusting over the picture of the Rogue class in the Diablo 1 manual.

Those pixelated succubus titties in the Hell stages were really something too. Kids today just don't know how desperate we were for even a hint of nudity.

See also, the other love of my young life, Samus Aran.

Lucca, from the 1995 SNES JRPG, Chrono Trigger.

yeh, I'd hit that

Rikku taking off her outer bodysuit was probably a sexual awakening for a lot of young teenagers.

^ < > ^ < > 🍼

Yes please suck the life out of me.

Let's just say, I wanted to get "eaten" by a grue

Like, I kinda get it based on her in game model, but not from that rendition.

Shana, the legend of dragoon.

Babette from Cosmic Fantasy 2.

Cosmic Fantasy 2 is the only game in the Cosmic Fantasy series that ever saw a North America release. It was released on the Turbografx 16 CD, which is the game system my mom bought me when she bought my older brother and younger sister of Super NES and a Sega Genesis.

She figured buying each of us a different game system would mean that we would share and collaborate, but nobody wanted to play my role-playing game, and they didn't want to let me play Sonic or Mario, so I sat down and played Cosmic Fantasy II from beginning to end.

It was the first role-playing game I ever beat, it was the first role-playing game I had ever seen with full-motion video, it was a really good story, and yeah, the introduction of Babette was a full-motion anime video of her taking a shower in a space ship, which was fantastic to preteen me.

::: NSFW Tap for pic :::

Sorry! Tried to mark it NSFW, but the format wouldn't take.

I scrolled pretty far and didn't see a single mention of Marle from Chrono Trigger (or I'm blind). Needles to say, she was mine. I've always had a thing for redheads 😊

Lt. Eva Lee from Red Alert 2. Yeah Tanya was hot too, but something about how Eva talked just made me swoon lol.
