Navi (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)
Like Tingle, whether or not someone thinks Navi is annoying or a staple of the Zelda franchise depends on who you ask. The fairy is Link’s traveling companion in Ocarina of Time, and her catchphrase “Hey, listen!” is embedded in gaming culture—someone you know has that as their text tone on their phone, while others would probably roll their eyes if they heard it. As her name implies, Navi is your navigator, your right hand, your blabbermouth friend you wish you could mute. But she’s also a trailblazer for characters like her throughout the series and one of the most memorable companion characters in all of video games.
