Let’s also put the Rock in the game! He is WAY more popular than Goku and appears in multiple different game franchises. Namco already has worked with him, his wwe move-set (including the Rock Bottom and the People’s Elbow) even appears in the Tekken series, so they are familiar with it as fighting mechanics.
The Rock has millions.... AND millions of fans chanting the The Rock’s name.
His likeness appears in over 100 video games across dozens of dev teams and multiple publishing companies including (but not limited to): Disney, THQ, 2K games, Midway, Namco, Universal Studios Interactive, Spike Chunsoft, Warner Interactive, and Acclaim.
He holds Guinness records - including most selfies with fans in 3 minutes.
He has been the highest paid actor in the world multiple years.
He’s a 10 time World Wrestling Champion, collecting 29 championships in total.
THE ROCK!!!
THE PEOPLE’S CHAMPION!!!
BIGGEST VIDEOGAME CHARACTER NOT IN SMASH!
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
