We as a community have ripped 1-bit calculator sprites.

Not quite, the Amstrad CPC has 3 colour modes with most games only uses the first 2 (the 3rd one was what RetroSpriter mentioned but very few if any game uses it). Mode 0 on that this game uses has a higher color palette as in 16 colors to choose from like the Master System however it has a lower resolution. In this case, the developers are trying to squeeze as much as they can so it looks a bit squashed or blocky. After all many of these games are often done by a single person or a very small team and depends on the skill. Some games only have a very small screen size with a border taking up the rest of the space, apparently to get a higher frame rate since the computer can get pretty slow.

Mode 1 only has 4 colors to choose from like the NES but for the whole screen instead of a character but has a higher resolution. It can be used as an advantage but most of the time it was used for Spectrum ports... Some games use both Mode 0 and 1 at the same time with varied results.

So they can flip the sprites and not have to worry about the D.

I know that downgrading from DS to GBA makes you cut out some content but that doesn't mean you should just reuse stuff from entirely different games

Why is it that whenever Danny has a video game, most of the time they always have to remove the signature D on his shirt?

While I'm kinda glad the GBA version looks more natural and it's easier to tell what it is, I am kinda disappointed they removed the fist-fighting aspect of it.

Akira, it's because they're in "multi-color mode" the regular single pixels back then could only support two colors. (Notice the title screen.)

@TheLEGOGamer Pretty sure inconsistent depth is still an issue. Also, to my knowledge, skyboxes are textures used of the backgrounds, without which the background will do strange things like use the previous screenshot of gameplay as a background, which is what happens here in an unfinished Battle for Bikini Bottom level:

Don't summon RTB for me please, I know that Mario is a model in this game, but since he is seen in only one angle, is it possible to rip him? Like in NSMB? And also the fact that the 3DS has a Low-Res Screeen.

Super Basketball (Prototype)

Looks like an early name for Pat Riley Basketball that also ended up being unreleased (was the same time period, demo was 1989 it would have came out either then or 1990). Had it might come out, the European name would have most likely been Super Real Basketball like the Genesis/Mega Drive version of Pat Riley.

It's not Great Basketball as that came out long before.

TCRF says they used the Nintendo DS version's 3D models to make the sprites. I felt that the gameplay in this game is too repetitive.
