The snow zone in Sonic Triple Trouble (Game Gear) includes skiing penguin-shaped bombs! They're also thrown at you by that world's boss, which is a large penguin robot.
Man, I remember Happy Penguin! I would've always been on the "Penguins in GPL games are cute." side of the poll.
I even discovered recently, thanks to the current installment of your Building a Retro Linux Gaming Computer series, that there are apparently a couple of old Bomberman clones where Tux appears - I'll have to investigate those further!

The free-to-play party game Stumble Guys (Proton) features the unlockable character Willy Penguin.
So we've got the Grinning Terror, his friend who's obviously appalled by whatever's being looked at, Dean Cain wandering in behind them both, and a bunch of extras from Metal Gear Solid watching the proceedings. At least their penguin mascot doesn't have a face like those!
