Duuuuuude, I pinged you several times here ... -.-"
I'm still waiting for Neiteio to actually update the OP and put a link to Robin's site in there. Hasn't been updated since the forum was founded basically :(
Give me some text to copy/paste and I'll add it to the OP at the top with the header "UPDATE"
You have my blessing; I just don't have time to maintain it.If there's a lack of desire to host continued updates I'm down for designing/making/updating a thread/OT/hangout for Switch icons.
Definitely don't want to tread on toes so appreciate that Neiteio as the one who stood for us when others wouldn't. Agree on having the updated/changed icons and more of an overview on the 'icon landscape' as a whole. What were you thinking TheMoon ?You have my blessing; I just don't have time to maintain it. Feel free to copy/paste whatever you want from my OP by way of explaining things. I think it would also be cool if you showed a variety of icons that have been updated, so that people can see the feedback has worked in many instances. :-D
🙏With any luck, a new thread's increased visibility will save RE4 from its current icon.
It's all love and respect in here. <3 We're just trying to make the home menu of the BEST SYSTEM EVER a prettier place. :-3

I look forward to the new thread, if you decide to make one. :-)
I was so pumped to buy this game for the third time, but the icon (and exorbitant price) is pretty rough.With any luck, a new thread's increased visibility will save RE4 from its current icon.
Any volunteers? Robin? Or is that self-promotion even if you're not actually getting anything out of it.
Otherwise I'd offer.
well, do you wanna do it? otherwise I'd start on it during lunch.
I'm definitely down to do it, would love to if that's alright. Can have it done by end of the weekend. Agree on the content suggestions, will link in with you when I have the draft on an old post too. Same for you Robin64well, do you wanna do it? otherwise I'd start on it during lunch.
definitely some before/after comparisons, best practice examples, "how to approach devs" guide blabla.
Aka the wall of "don't waste your energy, they'll never be updated"We need a new wall of shame with some big titles with shitty icons like Hellblade, Sonic Mania, Resident Evil 4 or World End Syndrome.

Odallus is still in there!Yeah, ones from devs that should definitely know better. Half the LEGO titles are just a picture, where half have the title. Very annoying.
I also keep this post updated with 2019's titleless icons, though it's a bit hidden.
I found this interesting..
Makes me wonder if similar things have happened elsewhere and it might explain some of the bad ones out there.
Can someone with influence please tweet Ninja Theory and ask them to update the Nintendo Switch Icon for Hellblade? Thanks :)
No Logo - No BuyGetting excited for the thread, what were people thinking about the title - same or something different?
Do you guys have a proposed better icon for Retro City Rampage? I could pass it along to VBlank.
Isoland and Isoland 2, which launched yesterday, have some lovely little website icons.
Surely, SURELY, they wouldn't mess this up.
Surely.
....
Oh.
"B-b-b-b-but it doesn't have the title clearly visible!"
Yea Switch Icon Watch is the canon name of this ...initiative. Should not be changed.I like the term Switch Icon Watch. PixelKing started #SwitchIconWatch on Twitter when talking about Switch icons, and it's something I've taken on since too. In fact, anyone tweeting to devs about their icons should include this so we can easily find them. ;)
They actually already made a better icon, for the Nintendo UK (and probably others) website.

Just putting bits on the page and playing around.
Section titles will be little switches with the title on the screen and different coloured joycons ♥(ˆ⌣ˆԅ)
Thank you, have to go big with that header lol.

Agreed :) I don't understand why they often chose the worst Icon, especially since the Website has a great Icon. Nintendo should really make it mandatory that every Icon has the official Game Logo on the Icon and that the Game Icon is the same Icon as on the Website! And thank you for your Work and Website :)This is one of the ones that hurts the most. The game is gorgeous, gorgeous icons already exist, and the guys won an award for "Best Art Direction". Come on then, artists, spot this flaw...
