For AW, I would probably use an infantry helmet because the soldiers are the face of the series.
For AE, I would suggest making an image with a couple of basic faces put together.
Another Code is tricky because the series is more character focused, maybe the reverse of her DAS to distinguish it from Pictochat.

For AW, I would probably use an infantry helmet because the soldiers are the face of the series. Really? Just their helmet? Will that be recognizable enough? What would the helmet look like? I want to use an in-game reference. For AE, I would suggest making an image with a couple of basic faces put together. I want to use something that is acttually shown in-game/boxart/posters and not just make something up. Believe it or not, all the icons I made above are taken from screenshots and boxart. Yes, even the fish for Aqua Space was taken from a screenshot of the decoration on top of the "fish house". Another Code is tricky because the series is more character focused, maybe the reverse of her DAS to distinguish it from Pictochat. Even better, why not use the symbol that is on D's chest in the first game? It looks pretty iconic. Although that symbol doesn't hold any weight in the sequel.

I was thinking a helmet like from this old art. I know a lot of people use a wrench, but that really only represents the GBA trilogy. I guess a flag with a star could also work, most AW games feature one nation with a star emblem. With regards to Smile Book Collection, there really isn't anything available to use by default. I looked around for stuff, and I can't find anything outside of NCL's site, even Niconico is turning up empty. I think the Another Code symbol should be something close to Ashley since the games are about her and her family. I know someone on pixiv for instance used the loading icon from her DAS as her emblem.

Yeah I didn't want to use the wrench either. I thought about using Orange Star as it's icon too. I'd like to hear what others might think of this idea.
Oh can you show me a pic of that DAS loading screen?

Hmm. Doesn't seem to be working.
Edit: Okay thanks!

I thought about the Red Star / Orange Star emblem, and dismissed it for looking too much like a star panel from Puzzle League when presented as a silhouette. I also thought about using a tank, but it may feel too generic. Maybe have this talking box or the balance for Egaocho? I think asking for icon for something like this is like asking for an icon for Adobe Flash Catalyst of Microsoft Azure: there simply isn't anything that represents it well outside of its user base.

Aha! I found the icon that I want for Another Code! And here it is! What is it? Why it's the logo for JC Valley Technology company. Look: i.ytimg.com/vi/f20ql1ddHzE/maxresdefault.jpgBy the way I might redo the Archaic Sealed Heat icon. The "S" doesn't look too good.

The Mr. AR image on the far right would have been better for AR Games. Without the S on it.

I was deciding whether to use the little guy or the ? Block one. Ultimately I chose the ? Block. But if I hear an outcry to change it to Mr. AR, I'll do it.

Looks like I'm finished with everything for "A". Time to tackle "B".

Oh boy, time for Battle Clash.

The series under the letter "B" is looking to be extremely difficult. I need advice for almost all of them!

For Battle Clash, I would keep it simple and use the cross hairs from the box art. Big Brain Academy I would use a motarboard cap, and Brain Age the head silhouette from the North American box art. For Barker Bill, maybe use his top hat, there really isn't much unique to that game.
