Title: Opinions Wanted for CandyCade marquee artwork
Post by: killbill on September 12, 2006, 05:29:41 pm

Hi Guys,

I'm in the prelim stages of creating a marquee for my little Japanese 25" sitdown MAME candy cab.

I'm calling the cab CandyCade.

The theme is to showcase all the girl characters in games that we have all spent tons of coin on trying to save over the years, and also other famous girl game characters. 

Examples are:

Daphne from Dragon's Lair
Ms. Pac Man
Girl from Donkey Kong
Maybe one girl from Street Fighter

I thought the words "Candy Cade" would be done in a red and white striped candy cane font

Any ideas to further the theme? Or other characters I forgot?

I thought about doing something similiar, but I didnt think of enough girls to satisfy my plans.. I kept wanting to include Zelda.. but thats not a coin op in the slightest.

Byyytheway The girl from donkey kong is named Daisy. That might help in the picture search or something... or maybe I just wanted some street cred for knowing her name... either way: Daisy.
