Line 77:
* [[Super Robot Wars]] is so named because the villains in the games start these, with the good guys having to end them.
* Every ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' game in the Xehanort Saga (essentially, every game released between Kingdom Hearts 1-3) is linked by the same mysterious evil figure who just won't stay dead.
* The [[MOTHER]]/[[EarthboundEarthBound]] series is a special case. None of the heroes ever return, but the [[Big Bad]] from the first one reappears in the next one, in which a [[The Dragon|Dragon]] for him is introduced. {{spoiler|The third one then features only [[The Dragon]] from the second one, since the original [[Big Bad]] was killed in the second game.}} A couple of characters ([[Wild Mass Guessing|how many exactly depends on the player]]) from the second game appear, though, and Ness, the hero from it, is referenced a lot.
* Doctor Wily of [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]] is one of these. His declaring world domination pushes Rock to undergo the change to Mega Man. Wily is also nfluencing events long after his life thanks to his hand in the creation of the [[Mega Man X|Maverick Virus]].
 
Line 93:
== Western Animation ==
 
* Each season of [[Code Lyoko]] has a plot that focuses almost entirely on [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot|XANA]]'s schemes, attacks and evolution. Which is kinda ironical considering he is [[He Who Must Not Be Seen|never actually seen]] [[Ultimate Evil|or heard in person]].
