Mario is the only answer.

Additionally, Mario is the same answer to, "What is the most iconic character or mascot for any company of all time?"

2nd to that question is Mickey Mouse.

Eh, I'd argue that Bugs Bunny is bigger than Mario and only topped by the likes of Mickey Mouse (for a company that is). In video games, nobody really even comes close to Mario, it's a complete shut-out.

Bugs???  Are you crazy?

You might have an argument with Mickey, but there is no way Bugs Bunny is more iconic than either of them.

Mario and Mickey are on EVERYTHING related to their companies. Bugs is on very little for WB and it was only very recently that they even began to reintroduce Looney Tunes as a franchise.

Mario is THE most iconic character the world over followed by Mickey.
