Apparently the post I made yesterday never showed up. Huh. Anyway, I clarified a couple of the rules a bit more. I'm experimenting with how it's laid out at the moment... I think what I'm going to go with is going to be something like a bigger version of the World of Nintendo background, with more tiers. More tiers for more characters!

Anybody know where I can find some decent artwork of Bill Rizer? The only full-body stuff I can find is from Neo Contra, but I'd much rather use the Contra 4 design.

Hm, let me go take a look, kirbychu. Edit - Well, my major sources turned up nothing, so a quick Google search provided a larger version of the box art (which apparently was a folder of some kind?), which may be your best source (unless Nester has something). Here's a link: www.megatonnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/contra-4-15p4ky8.jpg |

 The official site also has a bunch of wallpapers in the downloads section. |

Ah, of course. I don't know why I didn't think to check the official site. XD
Thanks guys, that's perfect!

UBER COOL! And Chibi is to scale! So cute!
I reckon you need one or two protagonists from Streets of Rage in there next.

That is so awesome! All the characters look great!
Just a comment: the dark platform is a bit drab.

Well, I just beat Psychonauts (amazing game, incredible story, I highly recommend it for everyone here), so I'd like to see Raz in the pic.

Just a comment: the dark platform is a bit drab. Mm, they are a bit. I spent a long time trying to find a look for them that worked, because I wanted a theme going there like what I had with the Nintendo picture (the platforms there were based on Mario blocks). I actually experimented with using actual consoles as the platforms, but they were difficult to stack convincingly, and I didn't want to look like I was favouring consoles by having some higher up the pile than others. In the end I just looked at the colours consoles have had over the years, and black/dark grey seems to have been a heavy favourite, though light grey/white was a close second. I just went with that. Hopefully it won't notice so much when it's full of characters. Teev, one of my real-life friends has already begged me to put Raz in. So consider it done.  EDIT: Oh, and Old Man, I'm gonna go ahead and put that down as a resquest for Axel.  |

Psychonauts is indeed a fantastic game. The only part I didn't like was the last stage, which felt unpolished compared to the other stages. But a great game regardless.
Looks great so far, Kirbychu! ^_^

Ooh! Ooh! Raz can be using his psychic hand to thumb wrestle Isaac's Psynergy hand. That would be AWESOME!

Heh, now that's a cool idea. ^_^

That is an awesome idea, Teev, but it'd take up a bit more space than I'm willing to give them. I need to save as much space as possible!

Here's something that should go well: Q*bert, and make sure he has those infamous bleeped swears. Q*bert 3 was for SNES.  |
