Well, if you've seen the new update, you'll see we got Icon 21...Nintendo DS...


The Icon could stands for the "Touch Generation" (Which unfortunately fits with the Icon Theory)

BTW, this is all an assumption looking from a different perspective than I actually believe based on an observation.

I would like to add, Touch generation itself seems to have an icon for the series...yet the DS icon is used...It may mean to represent any number of DS titles, including the touch generation but also pictochat so used the DS icon instead...We will find out after another updated...It could refer to DS in general...

BTW, I got this very interesting information about the Touch Generation Logo

One thing I hope you all know (especially the thread creator) is that the Touch Generations logo you see in the first post is the NORTH AMERICAN version of the logo. The Japanese and Europeans have a different logo:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/29/Touch!genjapan.JPG



Since the game is being released in many languages/regions, and it would be unecessary to create more than one logo for separate regions, it is very likely that a universal icon for Touch Generations was chosen as the DS symbol. So really, expect the DS icon to be used for the Nintendogs Assist Trophy, and for anything involving stuff like Brain Age, Cooking Mama, Elite Beat Agents, etc...
NA Touch generation Company Logo



Here is a list of the touch generation games: Touch Generation Link
Big Brain Academy
Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day!
Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes A Day!
Clubhouse Games
Electroplankton
Elite Beat Agents
Flash Focus: Vision Training in Minutes a Day
Magnetica
Master of Illusion
Nintendogs
Picross DS
Planet Puzzle League
Sudoku Gridmaster
Tetris DS
True Swing Golf

Touch Generation Wii Games:
Wii Sports
Wii Play
Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree


It comes with interesting music



...This may very well debunk the argument FOR an animal Crossing character...to my dismay (Though it would shove it to BlueWave)

...Or we could get an interesting character?

ex: Mii (Because of Music), Dr. Lobe, Elite Beat Agent, Hell...Even the Tetris Block!
(I would like to add I am against or don't know who these characters are, so I am not being bias...)


BTW, I would like to add that the DS Icon does NOT represent Pictochat only...Since the words Pictochat in the "My Music" option is referring to what game the stage comes from

ex. Mario



Notice it says Mario Sunshine, and not Mario



Possible Touch Generation AT?

Icon not confirmed yet


The Mii, not connected to the DS you say...why look at this...

Miis are not that big of a stretch (a stretch regardless, but a smaller one)

Miyamoto said at the GDC that the mii channel began as a DS project, so they are in fact connected to that system.

BTW, I am not claiming there WILL be a character represented under the DS Icon, I am merely saying it is a possibility people seem to be blocking out because it does not fit their ideal version of what THEY think Smash should be...

To be edited...

the icon theory is a bunch of ****. it has nothing to do with it. that Icon already existed, if you look on any DS/DS lite you can find it. the whole number things just shows the order at which the Icons has come in.

Either way, the Icon theory was proved that only part correct was N64, Melee than Brawl...

Try making this seem like it's in alphabetical order!


Could this be Mii as character though!?! Or Dr. Lobe!?!

...

They got the rights for tetris Block!!!

If a Tetris stage is in the game, I will **** bricks.

Also, the DS WON'T have a rep for it. Its found on the lite for cryin out loud.

I highly doubt Miis will be represented by this Icon, they will probaably get the Wii's icon.

WTF tetris block?

However, you don't know this for a fact, now do you?

You'd think that...yet, Mii music.

Tetris Block was joke...But since it is a gameboy game originally, and DS is the new gameboy...think about it...

no we dont but its HIGHLY IMPROBABLE it will. the DS is a system, not a game series. the stage and real life object are reps in themselfs. besides what would rep it, a stylus or DS with legs? or a DS with stylus limbs?
I gave examples...

Dr. Lobe, for one...

DS exclusive Nintendo games, under the DS title...which some actually do

People and their stupid theories. An icon has to be aided by a character........what a load.

The Icon doesn't mean anything for characters as the icons are made for stages as well as characters. The icon doesn't mean a AC character has to be in and it definitly doesn't mean a walking DS will be joining this brawl.

The same reason it has the Mii music...


...Now I am insane, but the AC people aren't? I know some of you would say they are...



But think about it

the seires is not the system. the icon is not for "Nintendo DS." the icon is for PICTOCHAT. the software. the stage. that is all it will be used for. period.

I'm not usually one to jump the gun on these kinds of things (as I'm usually the one arguing against the people who automatically assume things), but...

I am now willing to claim that (unless we get a playable character with this symbol) the "icon" theory is officially dead (if we get a character, the theory would still be viable.) And, as a result, the AC represenatives just took a major kick in the crotch. Though not 100% dead, they're hurting like ****!

As for characters who could have the DS symbol as theirs...well. No one immediately comes to mind.

The head silhouette on the box art of the Brain Age games would likely be Dr. Kawashima's symbol, Phoenix Wright would have the silhouette of him pointing (because that's his icon on the box art), and Derek Stiles would have a medical cross. Anyone else...?

Now, while it's true that anyone of these guys could use the DS as the symbol, it's unlikely as they have their own.

Also, Miis are a Wii thing, so it's doubtful that they would get a DS as the symbol.
Posted this in the Tom Nook topic... Seems plausible here too.

It's for the Pictochat STAGE, it could be representing the DS touch game franchise...Including Brainage...

...

Just saying...

Your all just assuming now

Ah ha! But that's just an assumption...How do you know what Dr. Lobe's symbol would be...Or anyone for that matter


Why does the Mii Music use the DS icon anyway?

the Icon's original use and current use is for DS. the stage is for DS. this is all to represent the DS. the Mii music and what-not probably just fit the stage very well, or represent the DS's sibling system (I dont know another word for it) the Wii.

Mii Music still is using the DS Icon...could that FINALLY mean that Mii's are deconfirmed?

Why would it use the DS Icon?

Mii supporters...speak up

i believe you're wrong. just as the series for Smashville is Animal Crossing, and the series for the Halberd is Kirby, the screenshot of the My Music screen clearly shows that the series name is specifically called PictoChat, not Nintendo DS.

If you look at the ****ing DS the sybol is right on it!
its the DS symbol!
picto chat is part of the DS!
this is all to represent the DS!
that is the stage name, this is chooseing its music, this is all to represent the DS and picto chat does the best job as a stage!
and I dont see any sybol next to the Mii music, so how do you know that it is useing the Icon?
you guys are over speculating something so simple....

The graduation cap at the top...

If you read my post, you would note that I admitted that the DS symbol could very easily represent any of the DS franchises. But the loophole in that plan is that each of these franchises has their own icons, so why use the DS symbol. The logical perception of this update is the death of the Icon theory (much to my dismay.)

The music only appears on that part if it uses the same icon...The Mario only had Mario music in it's section...

i'm sorry....i didn't realize you were visually impaired. here, let me circle it for you:



that is the name of the series. the DS icon is being used to represent PictoChat, which, unbelievably, is a part of the DS hardware. imagine that!

but the series is PICTOCHAT. NOT DS. there will not be a character fighting for PictoChat no matter how you slice it.

It might be helpful to show other music screens as well...for comparison

why, certainly!

Did you notice that they only use icons from whatever game the stages came from. (Please use Mario's Music/Stage Screen.) They had Mario SunShine Logo on that stage, so that meant they will use game's logo to represent the stages so your theory isn't working so here is my theory.

I think DS Icon represents all of games from Touch Generations.

Here is links

http://us.touchgenerations.com/index.jsp

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch!_Generations


Now I can see Nintendog would have his own icon from DS icon. (#21 since he is part of touch generation, along with Brain Age, Big Brain Academy)

Hahaha I hope Sakurai is watching you guys argue and is laughing at how bad he's ****ing with everyone.

I don't understand why you keep trying to fight over this, Pictochat is part of the DS, it's in the DS. It's not a series and you won't be able to draw your own character (which is the most unlikely thing I've heard). The icon theory is dead, the Mii's won't use the Pictochat icon and noone will rep for Pictochat, unless it's a doodle character similar to game and watch. Oops I should have watched what I typed, now people are gonna say there's going to be a doodle man in Brawl!

Unfortunetly the Icon stands for "Touch Generation" and not DS or PictoChat which fits with the Icon theory

Check out the Touch Generation games for yourself

God, you lot are actually serious? You really think there's going to be a "DS" chracter? MR DS maybe? Or perhaps Sir Stylus? Good lord.

And if it's a Mii, it's not going to use the DS logo.

You're just assuming now. If it did stand for Touch Generation, wouldn't you think it would be the G symbol? I mean it's right there.
First, I don't believe in the ICON theory, about the alphabetical thing at least

But unfortunetly, I do have as much evidence as the Animal Crossers

Sir Stylus would be top tier, and you know it!



and as for the "Icon Theory," that thing has been proven to be garbage. Touch Generation or not, it has nothing to do with transliterations.

I have no idea what the alphabetical thing means.

Even then, they would use the G icon, a more specific symbol, rather than the DS logo.
