For shits and giggles I went through past lists and found that only one character has made the top 10 in all 10 lists, and that is Samus. Additional props to Cloud, Squall, and Link, who all had perfect top 10 attendance in each of the first 8 lists, but dropped out after 2010 once board demographics shifted. Out of further curiosity I tallied the number of times ever character has made the top 10 and here's what we have:

Samus Aran - 10
Solid Snake - 9
Cloud Strife - 8
Link - 8
Squall Leonhart - 8
Mario - 7
Phoenix Wright - 6
Celes Chere - 5
Kirby - 5
Magus - 5
Yuna - 5
Auron - 3
Miles Edgeworth - 3
Kefka - 2
Mega Man - 2
Sonic the Hedgehog - 2
Vivi Ornitier - 2
Big Boss - 1
Bowser - 1
Estelle Bright - 1
Kanji Tatsumi - 1
Kratos - 1
Luigi - 1
Mega Man X - 1
Tidus - 1
Yuri Lowell - 1
Zero - 1

Probably the most interesting thing to me is the list of characters sitting at 5 appearances - Kirby and Magus, who seem low there, and Celes and Yuna, who are shockingly high there.
