Does anyone have the complete 'meta' folder of 'pikmin 3' and 'game and wario' ?
This is not a META folder share thread (there is one already) but I'll look them up. Write me a private message so I can answer as soon as I got them.
 
Neat work! Any chance you could do Taiko no Tatsujin Wii U version and Mario Kart DS? Thanks. Really looking forward to seeing this progress.
 
Wow I gotta say those icons did impress me!
I really like them. :)
I'd like to see some for Supe rMario 64 DS, Metroid Prime Hunters, Resident Evil 2 (N64) and perhaps both Zelda titles for the Ds. :P
 
Sure guys, i'll do those icons, but be sure that you request them with the Google Forms in the main post if you want me to do them!
 
Thanks for the great icons!

@All the others: Please respect his decision and use the form from the first post for requests.

Edit: But a small question: Your icons are all 256x256 while the original Nintendo ones are 128x128 ...
Do 256 icons work as well for Loadiine?

Thanks so much for getting my SaGa 3 and TWEWY requests! They were bugging me being the only ones without icons.

I know his icons are great but as I said a bit earlier in this thread: Before you end up having no icon at all for a game you can always google a picture like a title screen of your game, open it with GIMP, Photoshop or Paint.net, resize it to 128x128 and save it as iconTex.tga.
That's all and pretty easy. Not always beautiful but better than having this "no icon" shit in Loadiine. ;)
 
I've had this hack for less than 24 hours and have 2 kids. It wasn't that big of a deal, but I'll take that into consideration next time.

Isn't there a better way to do this?

For the Wii, there's a tool called VC Save Icon Generator that made an icon from a screenshot.

This is what should happen with the Wii U Virtual Console Icons, as it saves time.

I will make a script right now with ImageMagick so you can take a title screen and it adds the Virtual Console thing.

P.S. I'm working on it right now. https://github.com/larsenv/VCiicon

Don't want to be harsh but he said multiple times that you should use the link in the OP to request instead of posting it around here.
