Homebrew WIP Retroarch Game Icons for Custom NSPs

[tomnjerry74]

I started to put together some basic 256x256 JPEGs in Photoshop after recently learning to make custom Retroarch redirection NSPs from a tutorial on here.
I've only done a few of my personal favorites but thought somebody might like to use them. I'll update with more as I make them.

Nice, but Switch icons need to be 1024x1024 BMP, not JPG.

A 256x256 JPG icon of the game you want to forward (I suggest that you make your own)

I'm not interested in game forwarders but your Warioland 4 icon looks superb!

Woah, great stuff in this thread! Those icons are really looking good, it even inspires me to contribute some myself haha
Keep up the great work.

Here you go!

But when put on switch, a weird red blur appears around the logo that I couldn't remove with paint... If someone better skilled could help me clean it out that would be great

Thank you but same result, seems like the switch is recompressing the image somehow

No

Right, I just read the tutorial you wrote.

Was not aware you could divert from standard methods.

 

[XorTroll]

Yeah, bitmaps are only required by packaging tools

Thanks but same result, as I said the Switch is recompressing the image, the blur only appears in hanheld mode so that's ok.

Here are some other icons :

Oh shiz, I forgot the first two GTAs were on ps1, and I could be playing them on my Switch. Pinnacle of the series, obv.
