I would like to guess William "B.J." Blazkowicz - the protagonist of the "Wolfenstein" games.

I like that guess, but sadly, no, not B.J. Blazkowicz.

Mario?
We have established that this character did not first appear in a Japanese video game.

Mario was created by Nintendo, Japan.

It's definitely not Mario, Damo.
wtf do I know about shit like that, I'm old.

The original Castle Wolfenstein game was really impressive at the time.

Would they be considered a video game mascot?
This question still needs an answer I think.

It does! Somehow I missed that one, sorry about that.

I would say the answer is no, this character is not considered a video game mascot.

I have already guessed, but I was thinking it could be Duke Nukem, but I think this rules him out, as having a game named for you pretty much makes you a mascot...

Surely the Duke Nukem series is "sci-fi", no?

<Shrug> I think there is a lot of gray area in video/arcade games. Wolfenstein veers pretty clearly into the supernatural, so...

Would agree that there could be gray areas with certain games... but I'll just go ahead and state here that you're not looking for Duke Nukem, given that I am considering that series sci-fi as noted above.
