Video Game Cross-Stitch Pt 2.
sirinth | 7:21 AM on 09.19.2008 16 comments


I've been working on a large, detailed cross stitch of a semi-well known Ps1 game cutscene. Thus, I haven't had much time for smaller stitchings in order to post somewhat regularly.

But, in preparation for a detailed "this is my house/gaming setup" post, I've been working on covering my fridge in game-related magnets.
It's the only room in the house not already completely plastered with gaming images and/or logos, so it needed a bit of filling.

The thing is... I'm out of ideas.
(See my previous blog for most of the stuff I've stitched in the past)

Nintendo is overdone, but old-school Nintendo games are so wonderfully easy to stitch due to their already small size and wonderfully uncomplicated nature. The sheer simplicity makes it a quick project while still looking good.


So, what do you think? Any older sprite-based games that you think deserve a place on my fridge?


Here's the few so far:

River City Ransom and Final Fight, for sure. Those are some great pieces, btw.

You need a Charizard on there.

Also, Kirby.

Mega Man and Cutman come to mind. Love the Link to the Past Zelda.

Anything from Earthbound and the final form of Kefka from FF6.

Those are awesome looking

@Messer
Kefka would take far too much time/ be too big.
And I already did basic Kefka... that took 10 hours of work alone.


Not that final form Kefka hasn't crossed my mind before as a stitch project. but he'd be better off framed, rather than stuck on a fridge. At least I think so.

Earthbound sounds like an idea, though.

Sweet Link.

That's a pretty awesome Kefka!
But, yeah, definitely something from Mother2 or 3 :D

I love the little Bulbasaur! You should look into some Sega Master System games. If you made Alex Kidd or anyone from the Phantasy Star series, I would be your friend forever :) :) :)

Also Bubble Bobble could work

@Guagloves

Yes! but I already have a framed Bub and Bob sitting around somewhere. :(
(If you check out my older blog, there's pics of quite a few stitched works. In fact, Bubble Bobble is the first one pictured.)

Holy crap, what incredible detail. Major kudos!

It's not really game-related, but I'd very seriously be willing to pay for an AWESOME magnet.
