Mario.



got to go with Mario too, I wish it was pichu though



It would have to be Mario.. and, to a lesser extent, Pikachu.



samus Mario , but samus deserves it more. Just like she deserves to be in mario kart, since nintendo doesn't want to make  a samus kart.

 I disagree here, pokemon is more known for the show, and the cards than video games.

 It really depends on what market you are talking about.  Miyamoto is a console legend.  However, if you start talking casual PC games, Will Wright is an icon.  For FPS games it's John Carmack, although an argument could be made for Gabe Newell also.  It is difficult to say there is one icon for all of gaming.

 I give this thread a 9.5. 



Thank god for the disable signatures option.

who do you guys think is the icon from game developers?
