It doesn't seem like there were many aesthetics other than a shout out to this guy.

We're probably not going to add them to the SSS, since they're there for easter eggs more than anything else.

Soooo... Ashleyware? That's Easter Eggy enough for me!
I wonder if different times or seasons for stages could be an Easter Egg Z Stage.

Just Kongo Jungle HD. I won't rule out the possibility of doing more in the future, but for now, that's all we have planned.

I think I just heard my heart give a sad fart!

Of all the silly and ridiculous costumes Toon Link wears in Tri Force Heroes, this is by far the coolest.

I like how absolutely in character it is while giving off an archer vibe even if you couldn't see the arrows there.

It reminds me of the Minish.

I made some space G&W's. I think they look cool as ****. Most ended up being purple because most of my space porn folder is purple/I like purple/PM's color is purple.
I tried giving the very last one a starry outline instead of the normal thin gray outline, but it looks bad.

Also, unsharpened shaded:

Some Final Destination camo stuff going on there.

I think it would be interesting if Mr. Game & Watch got a recolor mimicing the Game & Watch colors such as having hs primary color being that beige color then with a red outline. That would probably blend in too much on Flatzone to work though.

Also, I think it would be cool if Mr. G&W got an alt/recolor that made it look like he was quickly drawn in Pictochat.

This is amazing, but can't GnW only have solid colors on his costumes?

I have no clue. It might be weird placing textures on his model since it has to flatten itself from a 3d model, but you might be able to prepare for that in some way/use a texture that wouldn't look bad.

First I'll just say that they do look pretty awesome.

But TRJV is right. G&W only has one costume file that simply loads different numerical color values depending on which one is picked. It doesn't even have any textures. I'm pretty sure that applying one on any of his costumes would change all of his costumes to use it, unless PMDT work some magic on him.

It would be pretty neat if they could find the code which tells the game to load a color based on which G&W is selected and tell it to load different textures instead, although I have no idea what that might involve.

 

[Nefnoj]

Don't forget - this is the Project M team we're talkin' about. They've amazed me to the point that now I think that literally nothing is impossible. Except for legal stuff, of course.

Eventually, I want CRT Game & Watch utilizing Game Boy colours, Virtual Boy Game & Watch with a grid pattern, and I love the Pictochat idea. The CRT could utilize a similar system to Beta Knight's magic sword, but with horizontal lines, the Virtual Boy would just be mapped to the surface of Mr. Game & Watch for extra 3D Virtual Boy reference-ism, and I imagine that the Pictochat would be animated or something.

Of course - that dream of mine would take forever, so I don't expect it ever.

Unless... the PMDT wizards find out a way to reprogram Nintendo lol.

 

[nimigoha]

I think a GW space costume that works the same way as Beta Knight's sword would be amazing.

Wouldn't be the first time! Definitely wouldn't be the last. Didn't they make the menu for Project M navigable with the GameCube Wii U adaptifier magicy thingy?

I see. That's really lame. I was hoping we'd see something other then plain colors for G&W some day. Maybe there's still hope, though.

Also, unfortunately, he only has 1 costume slot left..

PMDT, if there's a way our G&W alt ideas end up being functional, can we have them instead of recolors?

And then comes the tough question... Which colours would have to go?

I think the Pictochat one could replace the white one, they're so similar, the Game Boy one could replace the yellow one, and virtual boy... Maybe pink? Game & Watch has so many great colours already...

It's definitely possible and it does look cool but... I'm not sure about readability. There was already troubles keeping track of the cyan G&W on bright stages. I don't know what will happen you give g&w some legit camo for some stages :x

Playing doubles against a team with a red G&W on Norfair is like a 2v1 fight with the solo person being helped by a friendly ghost.

This might be a bit weird, but what if every Game & Watch had a CRT effect? Then there wouldn't be any problems of invisible fighters.

 

[Game&Watcher]

I just had an idea for a palette swap for Game & Watch!
Beige with a Dark Red Outline as a reference to Flat Zone 1.

I mentioned basically the same thing a few posts back although I said red instead of dark red, so I agree with you that would be a cool recolor, but it might be problematic because it might blend into Flat Zone too much. Although I can't think of another stage at the moment where those colors would be an issue and Flatzone is not competitive, I am not sure they would be comfortable with something that would act as stage camo (for those rare gentleman to Flat Zone moments).

Edit: Maybe Bowser's Castle might be problematic with color mergers, but there are worse.

 

[hotdogturtle]

Hey, so this is probably illegal to add to P:M (since it's a current [and non-Nintendo] game) but just in case it's not I have a suggestion anyway.

(And before anyone misinterprets this, I am not suggesting the hammer, just the armor and the coloration)

 

[Nanobuds]

Hnggghhh those are too cool I gotta make them.

The armor looks awesome, but I feel like it could use a bit more color. It looks like the shoulder and knee pads are based off of Blue shells and Spike Tops, respectively. That's awesome, and I definitely think both should have the same coloration as his normal shell and collars.

Definitely. I think, like Squirtle's costumes, the main shell should have a colour change with the armour. Other than that, they could recycle a few textures from the standard palette and the black palette. Maybe they could even add an armoured swap to Dry Bowser.

Though it just wouldn't be right if Bowser got it but Donkey Kong didn't, and he doesn't have room for the dark version.

But - like that one guy said - copyright. What if they used old concept ideas instead?

 

[ThePlacidPlatypus]

I like some of those concepts, particularly with DK. I'd like to see the Barrel armor. I imagine they could reuse parts of the barrel model in the game already.

I know Darkspine Sonic has been brought up several times, but I just wanted to share the ripped model from SatSR.

ALL MY FREAKING YES. Especially in contrast to the Jet Set costume - from a game about breaking laws.

It might be a good way to bring back the classic ring alt was removed, they could ruse that model but switch around the textures. I miss that alt, and the other bracelets, for that matter.

 

[NinfanNanz]

Yea I think the bracelets being removed was a bad idea. Although it makes them consistent to the default model, It makes the Red and green ones seem a tiny bit dull.

[sarcasm]Where have I seen those before...[sarcasm]
It seems he's also making pretty awesome Mario custom metals.

Is he part of the team?
And while I'm talking about certain Brawl Vault people, I would like to point out some of Program's work and fixes:

Spoiler

Though Zero Suit Samus, in my build, also has lights that change based off of Samus' suits, and a holster.

 

[Comeback Kid]

So we Skylanders now? Good, I hope the development team gives Diddy a second look then because it is the best idea for a costume, a jacket he actually wears not just a reference to something else.

As to what Hotdog said, It's all pretty official I would say. Not much different than when Nintendo contracts out one of their franchises to a second party or even third party studio. Punch Out Donkey Kong for instance.

These don't really fit the style of Game & Watch IMO, though I'm happy for the technological progress. What exactly are people hoping for in a G&W alt? Personally I want this to be used if possible (this is from kazan):

 

[Rᴏb]

The alt Theytah made made was a good start, but I'd like to see a more pixelated alt rather than an angular one as a reference the Game & Watch Gallery games, or the Game Boy in general. His color could be greenish-gray, and maybe his sfx could resemble the ones heard in this video? I don't really expect much else.

I personally don't see much entertainment value from something more basic/pixelated than the already minimalist G&W design, but it's fine to want two separate things. The reason I like the above concept is that it's based on characters you'll see in other Game and Watch games, like in his Brawl stage. The sounds are awesome, too, though I think they need a little refinement to fit with each move a little better.
