If NES can only display 4 colors, then how does SMB2 Mario have red, blue, white, and peach?

Here's a hint:

Can you figure it out?

Which he then rejected - that symbiote become Wario.

:lol :lol

"We call ourselves Wario."

Then why doesnt SMB3 Mario have white eyes?

 

[BocoDragon]

Back when SMB3 came out... to my immature eyes, SMB3 looked downgraded compared to the previous two.... Now that I'm older I see that it was a stylized choice... but it was really wierd to see those less-rounded goombas and such.

Here's another hint..

Look at quadrant.. er um.. septant? Look at square 2-2. Notice anything missing?

It's the color red. You'll note they also took artistic liberties and made the sprite shorter to make sure the eyes lined up where they should.

And thus the answer is out. /thread

 

[jamesinclair]

(otherwise all sprites would be big squares)

Are you suggesting without the binary alpha, sprites can be big circles?

And thanks for the

I never owned a NES, and my first real Mariow as All-stars (I had played the older games, but at my cousins house). Thus I didnt have enough experience to rememebr the different marios.

To me, All-stars version = real version.

 

[FortNinety]

Also note the redone Mario in All-Stars has red overalls and blue shirt staying true to the original Mario look.

And I for one really appreciated it.

You know, I think you're closer to the real reason they made his overalls black than anyone. My first reaction to this thread was, "wtf? Mario's overalls weren't black, they were blue." If somebody had asked me, I'd have said blue without hesitation. Maybe I'd have thought it was a trick question and the answer was red, but I'd have never said black. The eye sees what you want it to see.

I totally agree. That's what I thought entering the thread.

I totally agree. That's what I thought entering the thread.

Same, I even had a lame 'tint' joke prepared.

My mind is blown.

 

[jett]

I'll never look at SMB3 the same way.
