Line 204:
* Interesting case in ''[[BioShock (series)|Bioshock 2]]''. Buck Raleigh is a fat, ruthless, [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]. However, he is the most sympathetic of the multiplayer characters. He was never interested in plasmids but started using them when {{spoiler|his wife disappeared. Almost a year later it turns out she was leading a revolt against him.}}
* [[Wario Land|Wario]], though he's got [[Stout Strength|plenty of muscle]] as well.
* Porky Minch, the [[Enfante Terrible]] co-[[Big Bad]] of ''[[EarthBound]]''; his name is something of a [[Lampshade Hanging]], and his Fat Bastard status is later played up in full force as an [[Animal Motif]] in his [[Big Bad]] status in ''[[Mother 3]]'', where his [[The Empire|empire]], army and everything else are pig-themed while one of his highest-ranking servants ([[Arab Oil Sheikh|Fassad]]) is another [[Fat Bastard]] who ''quite''-nearly is as despicable as he is.
** ''[[EarthBound]]'' also provides a subversion in the form of Apple Kid. He's fat, apparently unhygienic and socially awkward, and accordingly less popular among the citizens of Twoson than rival Orange Kid, who's thinner, has considerably better social skills, and uses this to get funding for his work. Then the subversion comes into play - Orange Kid is a [[Small Name, Big Ego]] type with virtually no talent to back up the formidable sums of money he asks for, whereas Apple Kid is an absolute genius who actually cares about the fate of the world, plays a massive role in enabling the heroes to defeat Giygas, and never asks for anything in return.
* Jack Turner of the ''[[Art of Fighting]]'' games is one of Mr. Big's thugs, and the leader of a tough gang of bikers called the Black Cats. At the age of 13, he subdued a rampaging bear.
