Look at it! Look at it! LOOK AT IT!

[J-Yoshi64]

Because of the cursed Yoshi-Mario swap... I see no reason not to plague your screens with this horror that assaulted mine eyes on Tuesday.

 

[Moldomré]

I honestly can't decipher which is Peach and which is Daisy...

 

[Mcmadness]

I feel like that's less horrifying and more a statement of facts.

 

[Kerrigan]

Thanks, I hate it.

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Daisy-faced Peach is still pretty cute, though Peach-faced Daisy isn't looking right.

I think the artworks weren't on the same scale.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

It's more of an issue with the photo shop job. The hair looks way too small on them. Otherwise, I don't really see the problem? It looks like they had some hair styling.

 

[J-Yoshi64]

Thanks, I hate it.

That's what I said when I saw it!

Wario seems unconcerned with Male Wii Fit Trainer's condition.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

He's just jaded after seeing some shit

 

[Marioro]

How. How have we not brought this up after 157 pages.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Because I don't really see a huge problem with this? Sure, the color palette is off, but I'd be forgiving on this one because of the limited space they had to work off from.

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Wait, is there someone that isn't me who hates the magenta sunburned Mario sprites? Finally?

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Not a huge fan either, but SMB3 Mario and SMB Mario are much uglier

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

SMAS SMB3 Mario is damn near my lifeblood.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Your lifeblood is ugly and pixelated?

 

[Koops]

SMB3 has amazing sprites if you ask me. In fact, I only think SMB's sprites could be better.

Idk SMB3 sprites just look really good. And for some reason I prefer the 8-bit variant of those sprites.

 

[zel]

the smw sprite is probably one of my favorites but people have different opinions! its fine
now that we discuss awful sprites apparently;

and of course oyu cant forget the sprites from the arcade game ports

theres so many of them and theyre all so good

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

No, I said SMAS SMB3, not PC Mario is Missing. Can't you read?

SMAS SMB3 is the second best spriting style the franchise has, with the best being the original BIS.

SMW and MLSS's styles can go jump in a woodchipper for all I care. Not only are they ugly, but they're overused. When I was young and playing flash games, if one of them didn't use the SMW Mario sprites, it was already worth a look for uniqueness. And I hear nowadays that situation exists with the MLSS sprites, which when I played only the real groundbreakers (like Super Mario Sunshine 64, the predecessor to the more famous Super Mario 63, which also had them) used.

SMB3 sprites are amazing...
...for its time. I personally think the sprites get better every game (not counting things like Mario is Missing! and Hotel Mario).

Don't you think you might be overreacting a little bit? It's just sprites.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Well, I am insulting this person's lifeblood so I guess it's very personal. World and Superstar Saga sprites are eh, and to me, nothing tops Dream Team sprites.

SENTIENT BOOGER

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Prerenders that are officially repetitively used work in the 90s (see the original DKC trilogy).

Not so much today, especially when fake. Granted, Bowser's rigged Sunshine model was used for ages.

Also that blue DK sprite with the red barrel wasn't even from a port, it was practically its own thing.

Regardless, I want to stop and talk about how fabulous Bowser is.

Spoiler

ohh nooooo they reused the SMB3 Bowser again :P

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

 

[Moldomré]

What are these even from? I'm guessing either Yoshi's Story or DK64, judging by the style of the art?

 

[ThatGuy62]

I get that they wanted Ozma to be a special boss in the next Sports Mix/Hoops 3-on-3 sequel, but Bahamut and Behemoth didn't need such drastic redesigns...
