Maybe Wario from the "Wario" series; he's obsessed with coins/money. Also, maybe the Shy Guys from the "Mario" and "Yoshi" games; they're very shy, hence their names, and because they're so shy, they hate being unmasked, and when they're unmasked, such as when they're jumped on by Mario or Yoshi, or in the cartoon series that they appear in, "The Super Mario Bros. Super Show", they run away before their unmasked appearance is revealed.

Cloud and Squall. However, Cloud does speak in the Advent Children film so the theory around him being an Aspie can be off a bit.

Not so sure about Cloud... but Squall, definitely...

Also, Carth from Kotor...

Tidus is an exception to this? Good to know. I've never played the game but I picked him as an avatar cause he kinda looks like me, or at least i'd like to look like him. Plus he's in all these wonderful couple shots, sigh.

Don't forget Zidane from FF9!

Vera Misham from Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. She seems to be borderline lower-functioning to me.

just because some characters have no real talking ability doesn't mean they have aspergers!

if mutism was the case i guess you could add Claude from GTA3

it's pretty funny how we are trying to base a disease on FICTIONAL characters!

Pacman has obsessive compulsive eating disorder!

Sonic has hyperactivity problems!

Sephiroth (FF7) has skitzophrenia, OCD & social problems!! !

What disease?

Funny how many game characters are based on NT's rather than the autistic/aspie community, sometimes they do and it's just an accident and that character seems eccentric. Can't think of any at this point in time, even while I write this post - nothing comes to mind

I agree that Squall is very aspie. Riku (from Kingdom Hearts, not FFX) could possibly be aspie too. He's obsessed with finding new worlds, very naive, and doesn't have the best social skills. Oh, Shadow from Sonic the Hedgehog also seems a bit aspie to me. I'll try to think of more.

Since the last thread died, I made a new one.

But now, one rule has been added: silent protagonists are NOT Aspies. They're just mute. (Unless they act like Aspies without any guidance from the player.)

Anyway, for my choice, it would have to be Victor Niguel from Trauma Center. Definite Aspie.

My sister has the game for Wii but I never really noticed.

Kine the Fish (Kirby's Dreamland 2 and 3)
Zero (that nerd you meet in San Fierro and gives you missions involving RC vehicles in GTA: San Andreas)
and...maybe Megaman

Why not Rick and Coo?

Zexion and Vexen from Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories could be considered Aspies. Very logical and scientific, seemingly more interested in gathering knowledge than in other people. Plus neither of them gets respect from the younger members.

Let's put it this way, Kine was the odd man out in terms of looks and powers.

Kine never shows much emotions, while Rick, Coo, Nago, Pitch, Chuchu always show them. Kine was a rather monotone animal compared to them.

Also, Kine's electrical abilities was the ability to spawn a light bulb, in Kirby Dreamland 2, he could shoot out exploding light bulbs. In Kirby Dream Land 3, whenever he had the broom/cleaning ability, he would spawn a toilet plunger out of his math.

Aspies are known for carrying a whole bunch of utilities with them. Kine was the most utilitarian animal in both Kirby games.

Cloud isn't aspie, he's just whiny. Squall and Zidane are definitely aspies, though. I'd also say Vivi counts.

Squall definitely. Cloud probably not.
