S do we know if there are non-amiibo costumes?

because if not, the thought that Rosalina is "playable" in a 2d mario game before Daisy is hilarious to me.
I'm just surprised they've been so quiet with the Super Mario Amiibo line considering they said it's considered their "main" line of amiibos that they will always keep stock of.
Pretty sure tons of people would kill for Daisy and Waluigi or the like.

I wonder if they'll use Sonic's sprite from the Master System version of Sonic 1?
Assuming he will have his usual ball spin jump, I'm going to get hit SO many times thinking I can hit enemies anywhere but above...

Soooo will they be using Sonic's 16-bit sprite?
No one knows. We don't even know what half of the lineup will look like. But I assume they'll either go Master System or a new 8 bit sprite sheet.

Probably not.
They did that crap with Pac Man's promotional art too. Sega always seems really quick to ignore the Master System/ Game Gear games.

Nah I wouldn't kill, maybe cause mass genocide and cause grievous bodily harm, but never kill :teeth:

Doubt it. Too big of a sprite and they actually go out of their way to make new 8bit sprites of almost everyone, even Bowser.


That's just promotional art so no one had new sprites. SMM features new sprites for almost everyone!
Kirby uses his Kirby's Adventure sprite, so its possible for some rehashes

Let us think for a minute here. There's a Mario game where you can pick up a costume that turns Mario into Sonic.

Think on that for a minute.

Link/Kirby both share the same size sprites as regular Mario does in terms of height. Pretty much every other character, even Pit/Mega Man will have to be redrawn from scratch in order to fit the 16x16 size limitation.

Well that's only because his sprite shares a perfect hitbox with Mario. All of the 8-bit playable sprites are 16x16. AFAIK, Sonic's existing sprites don't fit that. They have to make a new sprite. They're all going for the SMB1 style, even though a lot of them are breaking the NES limitations pretty hard lol (Like Bowser)

Why so? Rosalina has already made a playable appearence in a main Mario game before Daisy did

This makes me wonder what they'll do with Pac-Man.

Will he just be the pizza shape or will he just have his World appearance?

Spinphony is one of my favorite Jigg's custom
It has a large turning hitbox and it's so goddamn fun to gimp with it

I actually enjoyed using the explosive rest one. It's kinda fun tricking people into attacking me as I sleep.

It's probably only fun in Free For All matches though. 1v1, it'd be pretty useless unless your opponent is really really gullible.

you could probably space out fox or falco if they try to illusion onto the stage instead of the ledge and catch them with it, but what fox or falco player is going to not grab ledge
