My friend is in a statistics course or something and performed an experiment for it. He sent me his results when I said /v/ would be interested in it.

Poor Chrono ;_;

what is the point of this 'experiment'?

>>338109539
Hell, I'm surprised that two mall randoms even managed to recognize him. Chrono Trigger is pretty niche these days.

That's really neat. I wonder how many were just normies. It's also interesting that Pacman had only one guy that didn't know who it was.

I feel bad for Megaman, Crash, and Chrono.

I don't believe it at all, unless they were only talking to young as hell kids. Megaman was a fucking household name before Capcom started neglecting him. I have never in my life met someone who'd never heard of megaman.

I've never personally bothered to ask, but now I'm curious to see if my area remembers him or not.

Hahaha, Megaman and Crash are that dead.
>>
>>338110314
Yeah, in mean I've not asked every single person I've met, or anything, but I have a key chain of him, and everyone who's seen it has commented on it, and usually by name. Maybe I just happen to be sorrounded by people who know him, but I always considered him up there with at least sonic, though definitely not to marios level.

A lot of people aren't used to seeing him with arms and legs, even if he's on arcade cabinets like that.

Bullshit.

Ouch.
Suprised Link didn't need an entry for "Identified as Zelda"

>>338110616

I'm more shocked that 9 people recognized him, but didn't know his name.
>>
>>338110594
>>338111085

Maybe it's all a meme and no one actually thinks Link is Zelda anymore.
Smash is popular and the Default name in Zelda games these days is always Link so it wouldn't shock me if Zelda "fans" figured it out.

>>338109891
There is also the issue of there being more than one Mega Man, and they look quite different from each other.

Most of the 80s kids grew up with classic Mega Man.
Most of the 90s kids grew up with X.
Most of the 00s kids may or may not have grown up with Battle Network.
Legends was a niche series, and is probably the least popular of all the Mega Men.
The franchise started to peter out around Star Force, so who knows if the common man recognizes Geo Stelar & Omega-Xis.

So yeah, it's quite possible that the post-90s kids don't recognize classic Mega Man.

What was the demographic that he questioned? Age range? Males, females, or equal amount? From a certain area? Different economic classes?

The data is useless if we assume that he asked 100 schmucks at his liberal arts college. Only thing we can assume is those assholes have no taste.

No chance this is correct. Unless the guy was being a faggot if someone called him "King Koopa" instead.

Also, how the fuck can someone name a character, but not recognize them? That's illogical.

how do you recognie pac-man but not know his name? That's like recognizing pizza but not knowing what it's called. Who are these 9 people?

It's spelled Chrono in Japanese materials.

It's spelled Crono in English versions of the game because your party members' names are only allowed to be five characters long.
