Nintendo when started producing video games in 1974 never thought of making it this big. With game mascots such as Mario and hit arcade games like Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. the company simply took off by the 1980s.

By the time Nintendo released its latest game Cult of Lambs, the console giant had more than 5000+ titles under it. But with so many titles came plenty of characters and it became a challenge to know which character could be regarded as the strongest of them. Therefore, the popular YouTube channel WatchMojo released a list of the strongest characters of all time. So let’s look at five of the most powerful Nintendo characters ever.

1. Kirby

The star of Nintendo’s well-known Kirby video game series is Kirby. Since Kirby’s Dream Land, Kirby has used its characteristic maneuver, the inhale. With the exception of Kirby’s Epic Yarn and Kirby Mass Attack, it can be found in practically all the classic Kirby platform games. Kirby: Squeak Squad’s instruction credits this skill to his “Powerful lungs,” despite the fact that all Kirby ever does is open his mouth extremely wide and take in large amounts of air in a way that more closely resembles using a vacuum cleaner.

In 1992, it made its screen debut in Kirby’s Dream Land. Thirty games bearing Kirby’s name have been produced over the course of the series’ thirty-year existence, the majority of them were created by or published by HAL for co-developing firms.

2. Arceus

Arceus is referred to as “The Original One” since it is believed to have created the lake guardians, the creation triad, Sinnoh, Ransei, and potentially the whole Pokémon world. It is the creation trio’s and the lake guardians’ trio’s trio master. In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Arceus is an important character and an integral part of the narrative that drives the game’s plot.

Arceus is one of the primary adversaries in the HeartGold & SoulSilver chapter and intends to wipe out mankind because of its mistrust of people. Team Rocket’s ambitions to develop Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina were aimed toward it.

3. Galeem and Dharkon

In the 2018 video game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s “World of Light” story mode, Galeem and Dharkon are the two primary adversaries. It is Dharkon’s lighter polar opposite. Galeem wants to bring everything into the pure light, whilst Dharkon wants to destroy all that exists in the dark.

When Galeem first emerges in the story, every present known warrior engages it in combat. He is always accompanied by several Master Hand clones. Whereas Dharkon appears in the skies, commanding a force of Crazy Hands.

4. Giygas

Giegue, also known as Giygas, is the main antagonist in the EarthBound series. Giygas is an evil extraterrestrial who goes by the names “Embodiment of Evil” and “Universal Cosmic Destroyer.” After failing in its initial objective to wrest back from humanity the knowledge of PSI, it now plans to condemn all of reality to the terrifying terror of eternal darkness.

Its impact also makes humans and animals aggressive and agitated. It is a member of a species of extraterrestrials that formerly possessed the PSI ability and kidnapped humans in the 1900s for unexplained purposes.

5. Palutena

Palutena, often referred to as Lady Palutena, is a made-up deity from the Kid Icarus series by Nintendo. She initially appears in the 1986 video game Kid Icarus as an unplayable character. Her name is a contraction of the Greek goddess Pallas Athena’s full name.

In the game, Palutena experiences a foretelling dream in which an army of demons invades her beloved Angel Land. She hurried to the oracle, who informed her that Orcos, a terrifyingly powerful demon, was in charge of the army. The pit was promptly summoned, and Palutena informed him of the looming emergency. The pit was then dispatched on a journey to find the Three Sacred Treasures and gain the strength necessary to stand up to Orcos’ evil might.
