There are two things in this world that we can always rely on: video games and Disney! I’m sure there are plenty of times in your childhood that they did a bigger job of raising you th♓an your parents did.

Disney characters always seem to bring back nostalgic moments for some people. I’ve met grown-ups who collect Disney toys and still watch the old cartoons on a regular basis. I’ve met multiple people who got engaged at Disneꦆy land and even had Disney-themed weddings. (Plus, we’ve all heard the stories of people sprinkling ashes in the Haunted Mansion.)

This does make it very annoying when people tell me to “grow up” for liking video games. Some people, guilty of the above, have told me that I take video games too seriously and 𝔍that I play them too often! It’s not so much the pot calling the kettle black as the pot yelling at the kettle for being too much of a pot. Video games are fun. Some of these games and classics, with characters we remember forever.

That’s why I want to show the world these fan arts. Why not le🅺t these two obsessions coincide, showing how memorable characters both from Disney and gaming are? They obviously both meant enough to someone for them to cross-them over. It’s also interesting to see which video games are played by which Disney fans. While everyone most likely enjoys multiple video games and Disney movies, some of these crossovers might surprise you. (Most are just fun!)

25 Aloha Pikach👍u! 🥀

I’ve never really understood what Pokémon are. Are they animals, aliens or just weird experiments? Now that♑ I see the most famous Pokémon, Pikachu, next to Stitch, a lab experiment that went wrong, I think I’ve finally decided what Pokéౠmon really are.

Stitch has always been one of the cutest Disney characters in my opinion.

While I’ve never found Pikachu as cute (although they are cute), Stitch in that li♛ttle onesie is positivꦏely adorable. I wish they made plushies of this!

24 ♚Aurora Of Hyrule

If there is one thing Disney and Nintendo have in common, it’s their obsession with princesses. Princess Aurora from Sleeping Beauty is one of the oldest and most well-remembered Disney Princesses of all time. Princess Zelda has been appearing in video games since 1986 and hasn’t left us alone since! Bꦬringing wisdom and bravery on several occasions.

Aurora isn’t the first Disney Princess I would think of if we were looking for a soul mate for Zelda. B💛ut both characters are 🤪known for big flowy blond hair and for staying locked in towers.

23 The Legend Of Bun♛nies

If there are two, small misunderstood characters that coincide, it’s probably these two. I’m imagining Judy as the “toon version” of Link from Wind Waker and its sequels.

The character is half the size of most adults but still far more dangerous, but there is an obvious contrast here.

While Judy had to stand u🍌p to pretty much eꦡveryone and prove her skills with difficulty, Link had all these expectations put upon him without even saying a word! Judy is without a doubt a much more interesting character than Link. She could probably kick his behind too!

22 ❀ Ferb-Fletcher Bros ⭕

Phineas and Ferb is one of the few kids cartoons that I didn’t watch as a child, but actively watch as an adult. It’s just got this cute little charm to it, being funny while still keeping this childlike sense of 🎀wonder.

Still, I would have liked to have seen one episode where the brothers decided to stay in and play video games!

I haven’t seen every epis𓆉ode, but does that ever happen? Okay, so it wouldn’t be a very interesting episode. But it would be relatabl🍌e and make me feel better about how I spent summer vacation as a kid.

21 (Disney) Princess Peach ꦐ

Given Disney’s desire to buy justไ about everything, I worry that one day Princess Peach may become an unofficial Disney Princess after Disney buys Nintendo. Sure, there is no evidence that they have plans to do so, but I certainly wouldn’t put it past them.

Even though Peach has just been Nintendo’s ✱trademark damsel, she’s still been a fun character for the franchise for decades. Even if her dress meets the requirements, I’d much 🌳rather she stuck to being the Mushroom Kingdoms Princess than become just another Disney Princess. Her Disney-fied face is also really creeping me out!

20 (Disney) Princess Daisy ൲ 💞

I couldn’t bring up Princess Peach without bringing up her slightly less irritating friend Daisy. Even though Disney Prince෴sses have improved rapidly in the last eight or so years, I doubt you’ll see them running off to play golf and go go-karting with these guys.

What’s amusing to me about this is that Daisy’s dress looks qꦇuite plain underneath when she picks it up in this picture, since real Disney Princesses have white ruffles underneath their big gowns. But shoot Disney through a ꧙cannon during a race and you’ll see plenty of white layers underneath her skirt!

19 Resident Princess 🔥 𓄧

I say that Disney Princesses have improved in the last eight years; by that I mean they’ve become more independent and have had more interestin🐈g goals than “be saved by the prince,” but I’ll always acknowledge that Mulan lived up to this long ago. That’s why she became a Disney Princess purely out of popularity.

That’s one of the reasons why this cross-over, showing Mulan as Resident Evil’s Ada Wong works. Both characters bring funny moments and are🀅 very strong (both mentally and physically).

18 ꦑ Nintendo Wars

Remember ꦺwhat I said about Disney buying franchises? Well, them buღying Nintendo doesn’t seem as crazy when you remember this!

Star Wars, whether you love the new films or hate them, has taken a different turn than when it was first released.

I just can’t he💦lp but feel they’ve lost some of their original charms. (Possibly due to the advances in CGI.) But if I saw a Star Wars film being played out by these characters in this style, I’d find it both hilarious and adorable.

17 Inside Mario ♏

I know that this, much like the Prin✃cess Peach and Daisy fan arts shown earlier, aren’t so much Disney characters reimagined as video game characters as video game characters reimagined as Disney characters. But the princess artwork was beautiful and we’re all better off having seen this!

If I’m honest, Mario doesn’t seem to have as much going on as adolescent Riley.

Sure, he’s fighting bosses and rescuing princesses, but he doesn’t do it with a greater range of emo♏tion. He’s mostly just happy to be running around jumping on stuff. Maybe there is something we can learn from that.

16 ಌ Jasmine Croft 𝔍

What could be better than combining one of the most classic Di𝄹sney Princesses with one of the most memorable video game characters?

I’ve often criticized both these characters. Lara Croft for being designed to appeal to a young male audience rather than a female audience, even if as many girls and women play video games as boys and men. And Jasmine for being… well, young. But we don’t kn🔴ow what became of her ten years after the events of Aladdin. It’s a fan theory we haven’t heard yet, at least!
