Crash Bandicoot

[CDH15]

I have been thinking about the MBTI types of characters from my favorite video game series: Crash Bandicoot. Input is welcome.

Crash Bandicoot ISTP
Coco Bandicoot INTP
Aku Aku INFJ
Neo Cortex ENTJ
N. Gin ISTJ
Nefarious Tropy INTJ
Nitros Brio ENTP
Tiny Tiger ES_P
Ripper Roo ENFP
Nina Cortex INFP
Polar ISFP
Crunch Bandicoot ?
Dingodile ?
Uka Uka ?

I'm basing this off the first 3 games. I played up to Crash Tag Team Racing, but everything after that was absolutely terrible.

Uka Uka - ENTJ
N. Cortex - INTJ
N. Gin - INTP (Assuming he's essentially the evil version of Coco)
N. Brio - ENTP
Tiny Tiger - ESTP
Dingodile - ESTJ
Ripper Roo - ESFP
Pinstripe - ESTP
N. Tropy - ENTP

Aku Aku - INFJ
Crash Bandicoot - ISTP
Coco Bandicoot - INTP

I agree that the last couple of games were bad. The Naughty Dog era was easily the best Crash era. The Vivendi/Traveller's Tales was OK to good(depending on the game).
My thoughts on your typings vs. my typings:
Uka Uka/N. Cortex: I could see why you put Uka Uka as ENTJ and Cortex as an INTJ. Uka Uka's evil was more fiery and forceful than Cortex's was.
N. Gin: I initially thought ISTJ because of his loyalty to Cortex, but once I thought about it, INTP makes more sense because N. Gin is an inventor/mad scientist more than just a henchman.
Dingodile: I couldn't really tell what Dingodile's type was besides an Extrovert. He's too rough to be an E_FJ, so therefore, ESTJ seems fitting for him.
N. Tropy: I initially thought he was a typical INTJ narcissist. Really, any NT can be a high-key narcissist.

I searched for a Crash Bandicoot MBTI thread before creating this thread, but all I found was one post about Crash Bandicoot in a general video game character thread (on this site, nothing on PerC). It was about time TC got a Crash Bandicoot thread.

Crash Bandicoot is so ESTP! Where's the I coming from?

Inability to speak.

Inability to speak.

Right. But the Se/ Pe dominance is apparent. What other types could eat 50 peaches in a row and still have the vigor to spin around like kindergartners on adderall?

He sleeps when he's not on an adventure and he can't talk. I just seems more likely.

I'll make this the Official Naughty Dog typology thread!

Jak - ISTP (same as Crash)
Daxter - ESTP
Keira - ISFP
Samos the Sage - INTJ
Gol Acheron - ENFJ
Maia Acheron - ENFJ
Kor - ENTJ
Baron Praxis - ENTJ
Krew - ESTJ
Count Vulgar ("It's Veger!") - INTJ

Samos the Sage - INTJ

Why not INFJ?

 

[Chrysanthe]

Why not INFJ?

Okay I rewatched a few scenes from the games consisting of Samos the Sage- and all of his beauty- since all of these typings are based off past experience and you considered an alternative for him. He does seem to quite emotionally volatile and doesn't suppress his own thoughts of others at all. His voice definitely has more character and variation in tone than maybe a Te user would have. His quickness to voicing criticism does make me wonder if he's actually more of an ENxJ... anyways, when he does reveal his own, not so nice, sentiments for Jak & Daxter... well I'll just give a random example quote:

"Every bone in my body tells me that the answers rest on the shoulders... of a young boy... oblivious to his destiny, uninterested in the search for truth, and rejecting of my guidance! And why would he want to listen to old Samos the sage, anyway? I'm only the master of Green Eco, one of the wisest men on the planet! So it seems the answers begin not with careful research or sensible thinking. Nay! As with many of fate's mysteries, it begins with but a small act... of disobedience." - Professor of the Green stuff

So here he criticizes Jak's character for possessing the "wrong values" (which tells me INTJ because of hidden agenda Fi being so stubborn and unwilling to accept that others have different motivations), and then ends by guilt tripping him for not appreciating his own help... which makes me even more conflicted since that generally that's a trait of Fe users... I'm sorry I couldn't have been more helpful with bringing up reasons for why Samos is INTJ, and that trying to only made me more confused about his type. Fuck it, he's ESFP now.

I havent seen more of the new characters. Nina Cortex? Dr Cortex has a relative?! I'm missing out alot.

 

[RobinSkye]

Naughty Dog has a thing for ISTPs. I believe Crash, Jak, Nathan Drake, and Joel are all ISTPs.
