May 17, 2024 4:14 PM Redstone Asset: Characters, Enemies & Objects @SpaceHarrier64 I theorize that the unused music in the arcade labelled "lady" was gonna be used for that cutscene, and then the devs of the Famicom version tried to convert it but due to storage price and poor storage optimization, the process was stopped

Something that could support this theory is how Pacman (which both have common inspirations for their power ups) had Intermissions
So it only makes sense DK devs would try to implement something as such
May 17, 2024 4:11 PM Redstone Asset: Characters, Enemies & Objects If I'm being very honest, DK's defeat sprite is much better in here than arcade, in arcade he kept his same normal pose, his face was wackier but the restricted pose made him less expressive
May 17, 2024 4:04 PM Doc von Schmeltwick Asset: Squidward Tentacles Fun fact: in the Spanish dub, the delivery fish that misreads his name as "Tennisballs" says "Testicals" instead.
Probably because "testículos" sounds more similar to "tentáculos" than "tenisboles" does.

May 17, 2024 3:51 PM Tailikku Asset: Vernon Since I mentioned the Ultimate Retro Mod on the Channel 6 staff page (and how mods need to be put into another game altogether), I should bring up that since Tiffany is made Bebop's hostage in the mod, Vernon is given new sprites to have him running away.

May 17, 2024 3:22 PM Franketepoke2 Asset: Characters (Battle) Not as bad as the time i was stuck fighting butt-shaped veggies in a weird Pokémon knockoff
May 17, 2024 3:02 PM DracoZ Asset: Tiny Forest (Overworld) For a largely complete enemy that is quite strange.
Also thanks!
May 17, 2024 2:51 PM Tailikku Asset: Casey Jones Yadda yadda yadda Mods in other game section, Ultimate Retro Mod, Casey is given a mod to reduce his sports gear
May 17, 2024 2:48 PM Tailikku Asset: Baxter Stockman Yadda yadda yadda Mods in other game section, Ultimate Retro Mod, Baxter is given Turtles in Time color scheme
May 17, 2024 2:47 PM Tailikku Asset: Leatherhead I know that Mods need to be put into another game altogether, but in the Ultimate Retro Mod (same as the one reinstating Tiffany as the Stage 1 hostage) there's a custom palette for Leatherhead that gives him his Turtles in Time colors
May 17, 2024 2:45 PM Doc von Schmeltwick Game: Mickey's Wild Adventure (PAL) Proof that SEGA's Bernie Stolar (who I think had previously worked for Sony) wasn't the only one in that era making retarded self-destructive decisions as to what gets imported.
May 17, 2024 2:45 PM Tailikku Asset: Burne and Irma I know that Mods need to be put into another game altogether, but in the Ultimate Retro Mod (same as the one reinstating Tiffany as the Stage 1 hostage) that includes Irma in the running Channel 6 staff with unique sprites made for it
May 17, 2024 2:43 PM * Tailikku Asset: Channel 6 Workers and Tiffany I know that Mods need to be put into another game altogether, but there exists a mod (non-conflicting with Dimension Shellshock) called "Ultimate Retro Mod" which reinstates Tiffany as the hostage for Stage 1 and even gives her unique sprites for her being tied up and carried by Bebop.

May 17, 2024 2:37 PM Tailikku Asset: Ending THEND
May 17, 2024 2:25 PM glaber Asset: Death Egg Zone With all the work you've put into these sheets, I think you at least deserve a Special Thanks as a show of appreciation.
May 17, 2024 1:47 PM amogussus69 Game: Sonic Mania @Skeebins sonic mania handles the level graphics quite differently than in the genesis games
(they dont use 128x128 chunks)
May 17, 2024 1:28 PM amogussus69 Asset: Sonic CD Objects (Genesis-Style) huh, why is the "you say" sign black in the sonic 2 one
May 17, 2024 1:27 PM Prosto_igrok2 Game: Pyongyang Racer Wow, Kim Jong Un didn't kill us for ripping these sprites!
May 17, 2024 1:20 PM amogussus69 Asset: Super Sonic (Sonic 1/CD-Style) this is clearly made for cd because the walk cycle is 6 sprites
(the 2 missing walk frames are in extras)
May 17, 2024 12:53 PM VustFlood Asset: Fonts & HUD @MDTravis are you talking about the knuckles life icon with the yellow text ? because it does looks like it's from the mobile port
May 17, 2024 11:32 AM kellym Asset: Randi (DOOM HUD-Style) if you wanted to make it fit more in doom you should make it darker and also focus more on contrast. otherwise good stuff
May 17, 2024 10:07 AM i dont know Game: Battle for Dream Island Customs anyone liked bfdia 12?
May 17, 2024 9:34 AM Yawackhary Game: Mickey's Wild Adventure (PAL) The game was a PAL exclusive was down to SCEA (Sony America) having a policy. This made 2D games very difficult to get onto the console, not even Sony's own divisions (SCEE - Europe and SCEI - Japan) were safe from this, Rapid Reload was another game that wasn't released in the US due to this. It only started to get relaxed when Capcom threatened to pull out but even then the anti-2D policy still lived way into the PS2 life usually with some condition and was dropped some point into the PS3/PSP life.

Even then, 2D games often had worse reviews than 3D games back then. This game, Rayman and a couple of others were actually the highest rated 2D games on the console (Symphony of the Night is now considered a classic but not as much back then, "lacking sparkle" to quote one review). Games such as Tomba and Klonoa were classed as 2.5D due to the use of polygons. It was a miracle regarding Rayman really...

As for the rename, can only think of marketing reasons.
May 17, 2024 8:04 AM Unoriginal_Fox Asset: Level 1 Sprites Ah, Q*Bert. My favorite Nintendo franchise.
May 17, 2024 6:27 AM teh_supar_hackr Game: Arkanoid Vs. Space Invaders I don't blame you, Tiki from New Zealand Story is pretty underrated compared to most other Taito characters
May 17, 2024 4:47 AM teh_supar_hackr Asset: Title Screen Pilot SpongeBob artwork
May 17, 2024 4:33 AM * SomRobPiz Asset: Napstablook and Dummies @pacmastermeow wouldn't that make the mad dummy by proxy also transfem, since it's the same ghost inhabiting both?
May 17, 2024 3:52 AM ShitingScrotum Asset: Backup Dancer Demon @MsmSpriterXD hey, at least they're looking as cool as they can within their role.
May 17, 2024 3:26 AM BrandonPanek Game: Cartoon Cartoon Food Bash FUN FACT: This game was made to promote a sweepstakes Cartoon Network and Chef Boyardee once held back in 2002: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mBfuS7XF1tA
May 17, 2024 3:02 AM Kartwheel Asset: Intro, Title, & Data Select @You Gotta be Joshing me As much as I'd LOVE to see the uncompressed original model for this Kirby, I wholeheartedly doubt it still exists considering that stuff isn't preserved hardly ever.
May 17, 2024 2:53 AM Tailikku Game: Taboo: The Sixth Sense I see dead people
May 17, 2024 1:49 AM RedYoshiKart Asset: New SUPER MARIO BROS. Wii WHY DID NORTH AMERICA NOT GET THIS GAME ON THE ESHOP????
May 17, 2024 1:37 AM Takerboi365 Game: Mickey's Wild Adventure (PAL) Honestly I'm not sure why A) this game was pal exclusive, and B) why they deemed it necessary to rename the game. The old title is in the game via a unused title screen according to the cutting room floor, but all that does is make the choice to change it even more questionable, frankly.
May 17, 2024 1:37 AM SusMogussFanV1LOL Game: Baldi's Basics Plus @Random Talking Bush my life sucks /j
May 17, 2024 1:31 AM Doc von Schmeltwick Asset: Mario Revision sent to be more complete.
May 16, 2024 10:33 PM flabberghastio Asset: Tiny Forest (Overworld) a little weird that this didnt originally have an overworld sprite

May 16, 2024 10:32 PM flabberghastio Asset: Hard Man (DOS-Style) how am i only now hearing of "hard man"
