Non-playable character: Difference between revisions

(Undid edit by BowserJrFire: The links are programmed so that any text right after them without a space is highlighted in blue. Doesn't seem to work with anything other than letters, but it's not really worth trying to extent the link just so the "apostrophe s" combo can be highlighted blue. Lastly, I'm very iffy on listing his cameo in Little Mac's taunts since only his voice is heard and there aren't any physical appearances of him there.)

A '''non-playable character''' (or '''NPC''') is a character that cannot be controlled by a player via any legitimate means. Most of the time, these characters are controlled by the game (e.g. [[enemies]] or [[boss]]es). A few of these characters are playable via the use of a [[GameShark]] or [[Action Replay]] but may cause [[glitch]]es and/or freeze the game.
