... Are there no Nintendo characters?

Sad to see no sackboy/marcus feonix

How many Nintendo characters actually qualify? The staple Ninty characters that I can think of don't.

Pikmin or Animal Crossing probably.  Both were pretty popular, Pikmin's really loved by core gamers and the industry press and AC was a HUGE seller, more than most of the games up there.

I'd have liked to see Chibi-robo myself, though he wasn't actually created by Nintendo.  

AC is most definitely not this decade. The AC game you know and love was a Japanese-only N64 game, which has been ported repeatedly with almost no changes for the last 12 years to the GC, Wii, and DS.

The N64 game was released in 2001 though... ie: this decade.
