The couch coop is a funny term. All coop used to be couch coop until about 10-15 years ago or so.

What would a pack-in icon look like?

A Joey in a Kangaroo?

How about an icon for games that support LAN?

negative icons --> 'too much reading' (we know you hate it!)
specific icons --> 'contains dinosaurs' (we know you love them!)

BTW I think your icon list is nice, but it needs an update. (Cooperative Play without Bubble Bobble or Double Dragon II! e.g.)

I like your ideas Captain! But what would "too much reading" look like? We already use a book symbol for another icon.

I will add the coop icons to the games you mentioned.
Please let me know what other games are missing icons and I will add those too.

Maybe a reading glass? A school bord full of text? A cross-eyed smiley? An 'ABC' logo?

Some more ideas for 'Cooperative Play':
Battletoads
Brawl Brothers
Bubble Bobble
Double Dragon
Double Dragon II
Double Dragon III
Final Fight CD
Final Fight II
Final Fight III
Golden Axe
Golden Axe II
Golden Axe III
Kirby's Epic Yarn
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Gunstar Heroes
Peace Keepers
Rival Turf
Spinmaster
Super Double Dragon
Toejam & Earl
Toejam & Earl II
World of Illusion...

...probably a lot more I forgot :)

How about an icon of a box or a crate, as in 'comes in the box'.

How about launch title...could be a rocket or a 321.

For arcade ports, you could use a Pac-Man ghost, a Space Invaders Alien, or even a coin (for coin-op).
