    this was exactly what came to my mind when I read this topic. Lester the Unlikely or possibly Leisure Suit Larry would do it.

    Bernard from Maniac Mansion is pretty wimpy. Also, the surfer fellow from the same game.

    Zidane from FF9. Not because of his tail, but because he was the most uninteresting character I've ever had to play. His little limit break thing was so fucking stupid too.

    TRANCE!!!

    WHOA, I am kicking so much ASS now!

    Kool Aid Man didn't exactly command anyone's respect, and the new Pitfall Harry is a wuss, too.

    Honestly my first thought was Cloud too heh.

    In more seriousness...

    The boy from Zone of the Enders would be a good choice like said before. A whole game about fighting with the protagonist whining about fighting the entire game.

    How about mega man? One little spike and he's a goner.

    Or any character with one-hit death (crash, alex kidd, psycho fox, etc.)

    Come on! Come on!!!! Now you're just TRYING to piss me off.

    What the hell are you talking about? We all know Palette Swapping has created the most interesting characters in videogame history...

    Or not.

    Ummmm... no.

    How about Little Nemo the Dream Master?

    He's a little boy in his pajamas who can't even hurt anything 90% of the time. He can jump and throw candy. The enemies mock you when the candy just bounces off them.

    Sure, Nemo can climb down the throats of some animals and take on their powers, some of which can kill enemies, but those are the animals doing the work. Nemo is still just a kid in pajamas who can't hurt a fly.

    There are a ton of wimpy VG heroes. Off the top of my head...

    First thing that came to mind was Wally Bear but someone said that.

    Chip from Chip's Challenge.

    The earmuff kid from Kickle Cubicle.

    Chubby Cherub.

    Michael Jackson from MJ's Moonwalker.

    Shawn Bradley in NBA Live '98.

    The face from Faceball 2000. A giant smiley face is about as least badass as you can get.

    Don't forget the mistranslated Xenogears plug in that scene.

    That would be Raiden, all the skillz, none of the personality.

    Bub.

    Or Bob.

    And "that guy from Amagon" as mentioned above is pretty high on the list, too.

    Take your pick---its gotta be Bubsy or Cool Spot.

    Bubsy was the most contrived gaming mascot probably ever created.

    Cool Spot was the very essence of product placement.

    BOTH are equally lame.

    Oops--almost forgot Michael Jordan from Chaos in the Windy City
    Parallel universe. Bush, destitute, joins army.
