New Smash Bros for WiiU

[PsychoIncarnate]

Still that's completely unfair in a competitive environment.

It works in competitive pokemon

 

[Artsy Omni]

More icons coming where that came from.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Hehe.. Let's see them!!

This is Smash Bros. though, not Pokemon.

Anyway, on another subject, I did create a franchise icon myself.

This is pretty much the best answer I have for Final Fantasy's icon, as the Chocobo is a common species in that series.

If you can deliver unto me the Dragon Quest slanted sword logo I will be a happy man.

That icon was a nightmare to try and create. That's why I'm so proud of my Custom Robo icon, it actually worked out exactly how I envisioned.

Any competent smash player would figure it out by the way the character moves. They'd only be tricked for a very short period of time.

Black Knight ICON!!

 

[OmegaXXII]

I like this!!

Somebody should make a Slime and Young Taboo lol....

I always envisioned Dragon Quest's icon being the slanted sword.

 

[OmegaXXII]

I always envisioned Dragon Quest's icon being the slanted sword.

LoL, but wouldn't that look to similar to Fire Emblem's sword?

But if it's iconic to the series then I guess, i'd rather see the Slime shadow himself as the icon, like Sonic's lol..

Zoroark still needs to be on the character select screen though. It's a tradition that unlockables have to be displayed on character select screens when unlocked.

Yes, I agree, who said he wouldn't be on there? its makes no sense not to have him like that.

It isn't that bad.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Well, i will admit, it does look thicker and nicer, 3 Dimensional would be nice.

Alss, how did your Custom Robo icon turn out to be?

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

I was thinking the following for the Dragon Quest icon...

Slime is the mascot of that series after all.

 

[OmegaXXII]

precisely how I envisioned it.

 

[Starphoenix]

This would be more accurate to an already existing icon.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

This would be more accurate to an already existing icon.

So you basically rotated the icon. That's pretty creative there, and it's not like Nintendo to not do that anyway.

Yes, like that, but with a sword on the background lol...

No... This is an actual icon...

 

[OmegaXXII]

But, i don't believe all those words are necessary. <_<

 

[Starphoenix]

The point was to focus on the Slime's... Ugh...

Here is the icon with the proper rotation.

This time, I split them up. So you can have some in your sig if you want or something, with "4 Smash" at the end.

Thinking of more to do, and I'm considering people's suggestions as they come.

(going to repost the other one. Need to make an adjustment)

 

[OmegaXXII]

Nice, nice!!!

So.. how about doing a Paper mario one

Want to try something I failed at? lol

 

[OmegaXXII]

Yes, you should do it!!

How about Takumaru's or Little Mac's as well.

 

[Artsy Omni]

Grr... still not right...

 

[OmegaXXII]

Grr... still not right...

I like it, it has a gun eh? Nice touch!!

 

[Starphoenix]

If you're interested Hex try doing a Sin and Punishment icon. What I had tried doing is making an icon out of the first katakana symbol in the title.

It didn't work out so well...

 

[Artsy Omni]

Final revision.

Does the use of the kanji character for "sin" really represent the franchise? =P

 

[OmegaXXII]

I love it, a XenoBlade icon for Shulk or Elza would be fantastic.

Even in the English version it still uses the symbols.

I think it suits the series.

If it was not so difficult for me I would go for the grungier symbol as seen in Star Successor's Japanese box art.

[Artsy Omni]

I don't think that's a valid criteria though...
The English cover has the Kanji, but the Japanese cover has the English words...

It's purely used for aesthetic purposes on the cover. The symbol for a franchise has to characterize the game. I don't see how a word, albeit a singular kanji symbol as a Japanese word, meets that criteria.

My opinion.

 

[OmegaXXII]

It's good I guess, but I don't think it should be a letter imo, more like an actual icon instead.

Problem is there is no other consistent symbol given within the series that I can think of? To me the kanji was always symbolic in the way that a singular "X" or "Z" represented the Megaman X and Zero series.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Hex, you should do your own version of Sin & Punishment.

 

[army man]

really,you're obviously good at this kind of thing

 

[OmegaXXII]

Idea, you guys should post these in that thread just for reference.

 

[Artsy Omni]

I mean, there must be SOMEthing in the game that is extremely iconic and simple in terms of form. I've never played the games, so I'm not qualified to make a suggestion, but I really don't think the kanji character "tsumi" is sufficient.

Just remember, a lot of the symbols for Smash are just objects in the respective games.

The mushroom isn't a "symbol" anywhere in the games, but it's an item you collect.
Kirby's star could be a warp star, an ability, etc. It's non-specific.
Ice Climbers is just an eggplant.
Pokemon is a pokeball.

Are there any objects in S&P that are important?

Of course they are, they are the best two artist around!!
