If you combine all characters named Ryu in existence I doubt he'd still make it past Mario's over 200 game appearances.

EDIT: I just realized I'm likely missing a very obvious "Capcom releases 20 versions of every SF" joke here

Should be pretty easy to figure out if it's Mario or Ryu give me a second.

Okay so Mario stomps and it's not even close because there's a massive fuck ton of games he's in even if he's not playable. Like he appears in Tetris and shit.

A better question at this point is who has the most appearances, Mario or Mickey mouse.

You could limit Mario to just his sports games and he still probably wins.

I think the extra six decades of existence might give Mickey the edge here.

Yes he has a huge head start but they stopped focusing on him after a while. There's a new cartoon out now but it's the first one in a long time.

Wait, are we counting merch? If so, what constitutes an appearance? Do those hats that are just Mickey ears count?

Each slime is a unique character. That is like saying human is the character that has appeared in the most video games. Which going by your metric it has.

Mickey never left. He isn't in the spotlight as much as he used to be, but he's always had a show at any given time. It's just that they've been mostly using him and his pals to star in toddler shows the past 2 decades.

Uh I think it would just be TV episodes, Movies, Games, Board Games and comics.

No merch, no mascots, no commercials or any other kind of advertisement, no "solid mickey head shape stamp" or anything that's basically just brand management, no websites (webisodes are fine) and I think that gets us off to a good start.

Eh, even without merch, I still think Mickey wins here.

How much of those shows are reruns? I doubt he's had new material the whole time. For a while Disney had given up on animation until An American Tail convinced them to give it another shot which started the Disney Renaissance.

Mickey Mouse Works (1999-2000) and Disney's House of Mouse (2001-2003) feature a bunch of his old shorts along with new ones.
Then you have several CGI toddler shows from 2006 until present day that all feature original material.
Mickey Mouse (20132019) is a show featuring original material.
The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse (2020present) is a continuation of the previously mentioned show featuring original material.

So he's basically been getting new material for 2 decades straight. It's either poorly marketed or people just don't care anymore as I only knew of the toddler shows until looking it up just now.
