Title: Nintendo "Goomba" likeness license/copyright question... Post by: SharpestTool on May 29, 2009, 06:56:00 PM Has Nintendo copyrighted even the "likeness" to the goomba character? Does anyone know?
I've got an itch to develop a "goomba" award prototype (like if you land on somebody, it kills them)....and have one of those little buggers show up on screen as a medal...

They even try to patent gameplay concepts, like 'insanity'.
I think a 'spring' would be a neutral image instead, since springs BOUNCE! AND YOU SPRINGED ON HIM or maybe an anvil. Title: Re: Nintendo "Goomba" likeness license/copyright question... Post by: SharpestTool on May 30, 2009, 04:18:52 AM HMMMMMM....
The anvil would work...or perhaps a shoe stomping ON something... Title: Re: Nintendo "Goomba" likeness license/copyright question... Post by: pulchr on May 30, 2009, 04:45:47 AM how about an animated medal of a boot stomping an ant :D
