Yes Banjo originated in a Nintendo game but he is owned by Rare and not Nintendo.

Are you excluding multiplayer modes? Falco is definitely playable in Star Fox 64, etc.

Which game are you referring to when you mean "at least one main role in a non-spinoff console game" for Falco? Putting aside the multiplayer modes mentioned by bandersnatch, I only remember playing him in Melee and Brawl... You probably want to double check your qualifications for characters. I can think of more than 3 games where you play as Metaknight, of which in Return to Dreamland he is a full playable character.

Falco in Star Fox Assault for Gamecube. I did miss him in Star Fox 64 multiplayer, added that. Added Metaknight as well, I missed Kirby AIr Ride and so only had him at 2, not 3. Banjo-Kazooie games were published by Nintendo and he had 3 main appearances on N64, even if the current games are not. Letters indicate what characters are from the same series.

You should accept 'Popo and Nana' for the Ice Climbers.

Pit should qualify. He's playable in Kid Icarus (NES), Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters (GB) and Kid Icarus: Uprising (3DS), not to mention Super Smash Bros: Brawl...

But that's only 2 console games, and I capped it at 3, or there's a ton of obscure and minor characters that then qualify as well.
