Copyright problems?

by CTMN » Tue Oct 09, 2012 06:35

I´m going to make a texture pack of super mario advance 4(looks like SMB3, but not so pixelated), but Nintendo has copyrights of the game and of its graphics. I´m already having a nice looking version(not ready yet), but what should I do with the copyrights?

You aren't going to ask Nintendo personally, are you? Thus, you can't (remember: it's not because everyone does something it is legal).

I think you can upload it as long as you have permission from the author of the images, and you have to disclose if anyone owns the copyright to the characters depicted.

EG:
The products or characters depicted in these icons are (c) by Nintendo

Here is an Icon Set that uses mario images:
