He was in Clayfighter for Genesis/SNES and, where I played him, in Clayfighter 63 1/3 on the N64. The image is the Genesis/SNES image. I couldn't find a N64 image of him. I'll have to do that myself sometime.

So apparently Clay Cowgill, who did the ROM hack as described here: http://groundkontrol.com/2013/05/behind-the-barrels-hacking-donkey-kong-part-1/, is co-ower of Ground Kontrol Classic Arcade in Portland, Oregon. I've been trying to find out who did the arcade cabinet itself, the side art, panels and everything, but I can't see to find out. I guess it's someone at Ground Kontrol or Clay himself, but I'll keep searching.
The details on this cabinet is crazy. Even the panel is done up with Pauline sprites.
So apparently Mike Mika's version is the NES one and this guy Clay Cowgill did the arcade version for the cabinet. Here's his gamplay video:
That's the first thing I thought of. What other games could be role reversed like this I wonder?
There's a video of a complete playthrough in that Wired article, and here it is.
Yea, I want to experience that story sometime.
I played the demo for Catherine and didn't really get into it, but I keep thinking about it, so I may pick it up someday and try and beat it and take in the story. Definitely a unique game.
I'm amazed at how many clowns are out there in games, but I guess it's no surprise really. Kids, games, clowns. Of course.
My favorite is Bonker in the Clayfighter series. He always says, "I'm a clown, laugh" in a not so nice voice and then he throws a cream pie at you. Someone needs to go back to clown school.
That reminds me to go play Odin's Sphere.
