please don't call anyone a "joke character" Jigglypuff was added because she was a popular pokemon with the same structurr as Kirby (making it eady to make her), Game and Watch is Nintendo's first protagonist, WFT may seem odd, but she is the most recognizable representor of Nintendo's non-adventure benefitial games.

nobody was added specifically as a joke.
