Dynasty Warriors is Koei Tecmo's biggest franchise sales-wise, and it's responsible for the creation of the musou genre. So it's got its place in history, for sure. But I really don't see a character from it getting in. There's just no getting past Hayabusa. Ninja Gaiden is a franchise composed of classic after classic, unlike Dynasty Warriors which has kind of a stigma of being mindless and lowbrow. Hayabusa is iconic, and the face of Tecmo Koei. Add to that the Nintendo history, and yeah, I don't think larger sales can combat that. Like Cutie Gwen said, it's Mega Man all over again. Even if Hayabusa wasn't in contention, I wouldn't feel very confident. There are still other games like Dead or Alive and Fatal Frame that I could see getting in over DW. And even within that series Lu Bu competes with actual protagonist Zhao Yun, and who knows if being popular will give him an edge.

I like Dynasty Warriors but I can't say it's for the characters. I'd be okay with having one, but within Tecmo I have many others I'd rather see.
