Arale-chan from a Japan only Jump game!

Dr. Slump had a game... I didn't not realize that...

It was from a Jump superstars like game. I have no idea what type of game it is. All I know is that I saw Arale-chan and decided to turn her into an icon.

I think April should be 64-bit character month.

vudu · « **Reply #28 on:** April 03, 2008, 04:53:41 PM »

No. April is semi-obscure eight-bit video game character month. August is semi-obscure sixteen-bit character month.

Any other month (except vudu-month and Iwata-month) is fine--take your pick.

can we have "an ode to the rat" month? Maybe October or September?

vudu · « **Reply #30 on:** April 03, 2008, 11:30:49 PM »

Weren't you paying attention? September is Vudu avatar month.

Lets see what was in 32 bit...

Playstation
Saturn
Sega 32x???

yup lets skip it...

animecyberrat · « **Reply #33 on:** April 04, 2008, 02:24:58 PM »

No way dude, Saturn mighta sucked but it had some great original characters, clockwork night, that guy from NiGhts, the dudes from Panzer Dragoon, Bug! (hey Bug itself has some cool characters) virtua fighter, Fighting Vipors, the Virtua Cops.... ok maybe not some great characters but enough to chose from plus PS had SPyro, Resident Evil, Crash, Gex, 3D0 had the dudes from Way of the Warrior, 32X had Tempo, there's plenty of characters to go around.

Ok so make October Ode to the rat month. You can use my old mushroom avatar and images of famous rats, like splinter, that pixar character, the three blind mice, Mickey Mouse, and others.

No way, I totally want to be Aeris with the sword through her chest.

32-bit month doesn't work because it's hard to find 32-bit sprites.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #36 on:** April 04, 2008, 03:17:37 PM »

sorry I forgot you aren't supposed to link to images that ain't yours.

vudu · « **Reply #37 on:** April 04, 2008, 03:19:58 PM »

OH GOD MY EYES

I don't think any of those are sprites.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #38 on:** April 04, 2008, 03:22:37 PM »

Who said it had to be a sprite? I thought it only had to be an in game picture of the person in question.

vudu · « **Reply #39 on:** April 04, 2008, 03:27:55 PM »

Everyone knows sprites are infinitely better than polygons for avatars.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #40 on:** April 04, 2008, 03:28:46 PM »

fine, use Gex, Tempo and the 3D0 Games then,

Not a lot of us on this board have fond memories of those games. I don't think October is Gex, Tempo and the 3D0 Games Character Month!! would be a big hit.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #43 on:** April 04, 2008, 04:55:14 PM »

fine.

Let's have Video Game Blasphemy month. For a month, everyone have a character that you think is absolute blasphemy for to that Video Game series. Such as Tricky for the Starfox series or The Robot in Sonic Adventure games.

What do ya think?

I've got my zero suit samus avatar ready for that.
