This is basically a thread where you tell us which person is in the picture and what game series they are from. I guess after all of the people have been successfully guessed I'll probably let someone else do the next list of people. I put them in order from easiest to hardest, at least, in my opinion.

1. I guess I'll start with a really easy one.

2. I guess most of you will know him from your childhood.

3. You may know him and his game series, but you probably won't recognize his new artwork.

4. Some of you will probably recognize this one, I hope.

5. You probably don't know her, but you most likely know one of her (potential) boyfriends.

6. He's not Ultros, I'll tell you that much.

7. Most of you are probably familiar with the series he's from, but you probably don't know the character himself.

8. If any of you know who he is I'll be suprised.

9. I don't think many of you will know her game, partially because it's Japan Only.

10. Unless you're Kishi or something, you're probably clueless about this one.

Oh, and have fun using the picture names to find out who each person is, because it won't work. ;)

1: Zero, as seen in Megaman Zero. 2: Iggy Koopa, I think. 4: The villain of Rayman on the PSX. 8: C'mon, that's easy as pie. He's Rick Wheeler, from the F-Zero Series after GP Legend!

Nice game!
Thanks!! :D

I thought it'd be too hard at first, but I guess I was wrong since you got most of them.

Anyways, I'll put the answers (for the ones that were successfully guessed) in spoilers, as well as my logic behind why I think some of those were more difficult to guess than others.

Answers:

1. Yep, it's Zero from Mega Man. I'm glad all of you got that one.

2. It's Larry Koopa. He shows up in Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. I'll give qwertyxsora and Kentarou credit for knowing it's a Koopa Kid. Iggy is the one with glasses, swirly eyes, and a blue shell while Lemmy has dizzy looking eyes and rainbow hair.

3. It's Pisaro/Psaro/Necrosaro from Dragon Quest IV. The artwork is from the DS Version, which is probably why some of you didn't recognize him. I put him as 3rd easiest seeing how this is an FF forum and Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy are kind of related to each other.

4. It's Mr. Dark from the first Rayman. Since Rayman is well known (though not as much as Sonic or Mega Man), I thought the main villain from his first game would be somewhat easy to guess.

6. It's the Octopus from Parodius (didn't know he had a name until now). I thought he'd be easier to guess than Melora since he starred in Konami: Crazy Racers, making him more well known.

7. It's Miror B. from the Pokemon Colosseum and Pokemon XD. It's kind of a shame that those games are so underrated, at least they are in my opinion. Since those games (as well as Miror B.) aren't really well known I thought Miror B. would be quite hard to guess.

8. It's Rick Wheeler/Ryu Suzaku alright. I'm guessing him receiving a Jody Slap gave it away. Since F-Zero isn't really the most popular Nintendo series, especially the GBA Versions, I thought he would be hard to guess.

9. It's Princess Melora from Twinbee. I was kind of expecting only Kishi to get it seeing how he knows a lot when it comes to Japan Only game series. I knew about Twinbee since I had a Famicom with that game when I was young.


I guess that only leaves 5 and 10 (Though nobody will probably get 10). If you want some hints for them I'll tell you that JKTrix was on the right track for 5 and 10 is kind of similar to Fire Emblem, since it's a Japan Only game.

Feel free to post some new pictures for 1-4 and 6-9. Just try to keep the easiest to hardest format, try to get a good variety of games in there, and make sure people can't cheat off of the picture link or name.

Dr. Acula got 5 right.

I didn't really think the answer would be common sense. At the same time, I thought that quite a few people would know it from playing Roy's Fire Emblem game after learning about him in SSBM.

I was thinking of using Lilina for 5 instead but I thought I should avoid using any Nintendo characters that showed up in the Super Smash Bros. series in any way whatsoever since it may become too easy that way.

Keep sending in more pictures for people to guess. I should be submitting a few of my own eventually (unless I'm too busy).

9. Eliel Evergrand, from EoE.

Not that hard =P. But, I suppose I have beaten the game over a dozen times. *shrug*

Damn, I thought I was the only who played that game.

Hmm, okay. How about this?

I guess I'll update the list.

1. I hope this one is easy enough.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii157/Kyudi/YouShouldKnowThisOne.jpg

2. This guy should bring back some old memories.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii157/Kyudi/IKnowThisOneButNotTheName.jpg

3. Since this is a RPG forum (since it's Final Fantasy) he shouldn't be too hard.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii157/Kyudi/HesNotMarthIllTellYouThatMuch.jpg

4. Some of you may know him from your childhood.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii157/Kyudi/NiceClothesYouGotThere.jpg

5. You may not get this one if you weren't really much of a GBA person.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii157/Kyudi/ThatsAwesomeMetalHairYouGotThere.jpg

6. I'm looking more for a game name to these guys since I don't even know their names myself.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii157/Kyudi/TheyreNotReallyCharactersButTheyreS.jpg

7. I'm not sure how this compares to 8 or 9 in terms of difficulty, but I think it's the hardest out of all the new ones I posted.

Can I make a guess about a couple of these?

Is one of them from Xenosaga and another from Maximo?

I don't know the answers for 8 or 9, so if you're absolutely sure those are the right answers, feel free to post new pictures for 8 and 9.

Also, 1-4 have been successfully guessed so that leaves 5, 6, 7, and 10.

Keep in mind that anyone can send in pictures for 1, 2, 3, and 4 (and 8 and 9 if you're sure they're successfully guessed), regardless of whether or not you participated in this thread before.

ljkkjlcm9 got 6 right. I don't know if those guys have actual names.

That leaves 5, 7, and 10 unguessed. I'm guessing 8 and 9 have been correctly guessed already, so people can replace those ones with new pictures if they want to.

Tasura
02-11-2009, 06:02 PM
No one's even posted guessing what they were, so they can't have been guessed correctly. And I know for certain 9 hasn't been.

9. Loreille? From Ephemeral Fantasia

Not sure if the spelling is right.

There, now 9 has been guessed correctly.

Depression Moon
02-12-2009, 04:37 PM
8 hasn't been guessed correctly and if it's that hard I'll add another picture from the game for a hint.

4 is the main character from Super Adventure Island.

His name is Master Takahashi, or Master Higgins.

That original #10 looks very Shining Force in art style. I dunno the artist or what other games he worked on, but it looks like a grown up and ragged Max from the original SF
