Non-platformer video game series whose name is also the MC's

Sorry Link.
Someone tell me if Arc the Lad, Goemon, Rastan, Vigilante 8 or The Legend of Kage should be here or not.

I included Tomb Raider because originally, for a lot of releases it was called "Tomb Raider: Featuring Lara Croft".
Phoenix Wright could be on this list, but the original title doesn't include any names: Gyakuten Saiban Yomigaeru Gyakuten.

Making this list I found games that would fit in secondary lists. For example, one based on roles that the MC is or has to fit. Mr. Driller, Shadowman or Prince of Persia would be three of these games. Another example, series whose name is the one of the planet you inhabit, like Lunar, Darius, Tobal or Zill Ơll (as a "world", not a planet).
I also discovered that Turok is not an original video game character.

Nah mejor no la incluyo. Parece igual que Arc the Lad. El primero tiene a Arc, los demás no.
Sigue estando curioso.
