post misunderstood sprites from videogames
I'm confused. Is this implying that a scene from Mass Effect has sprites?
>>732180994Why the fuck is the original picture resolution 200x100?
>>732181146It's a promotional picture for Japan and japanese people are really small, like ants.
>>732181524Oh, jeez, now I see it.The OP's context is all sorts of fucky. I could see what it was trying to get me to see but the scene it originated from confused me, being from a 3D seventh generation game that wouldn't be using sprites.
>>732180994I hate these fucking threads because it's all people pretending to misunderstand sprites that they obviously didn'tSomeone post the WoW flying sheep shatterskull thing so we can all just move on
>>732181101jesus this took me a bit
Porky from Earthbound something

Am I the only one who isn't a fucking retard?
Captain Vidya
>>732182692At first i thought he was moneyed like a cyclops or something. First, i thought he had a closed eye and that white thing was supposed to be his mouth. Then, i thought it was actually a big pupilless eye with a single eyebrow.
>>732182992I refuse to believe that anyone has ever seen that.
Anyone else see it too? Can't be just me, lol
this one never gets posted, but I love it because you can totally see it if you look for it. I never misunderstood the sprite myself, but I could see how other people might have.
>>732183135
>>732180994i never played mass effect so i cant even see what it's supposed to be
>>732181101I can only see the unintended look. Someone help
>>732183139Not the first.
>>732183304That doesn't account for the green on the other side though
>>732183348Omni tool: used for hacking, communication, etcetera
>>732183139Just you, I'm a level 90 pervert but I can't squint my eyes hard enough to see a Ponytas asshole congrats
>>732183304I can't see it
>>732183139>>732183351How? The lines don't actually work like that, the face is clearly in front of everything else
>>732181101>plot twist: right is the more accurate one
>>732183225Strokes are no jokes
>>732183139Yours is a stretch but I can sort of get the shape here >>732183351
>>732182128cry moar
>>732183809They used this retard for Terranigma walkthrough too, I hope he died since then.
>>732183906So is it like a christmas tree shaped looming fortress or a star wars imperial cruiser in black? Because I'm still seeing the christmas tree
>>732183914still alive and drawing
>>732184010the latterI think the number one reason for why people think its tower-shaped is the way it explodes on the map.
>>732183349the white pixels at the top are the reflection at the top of the glasses, ignore those and you'll see the eyebrows and the eyesno idea what they were thinking with the white pixel in the middle
>>732180994Isn't that the gay italian dog from Rawdawg Comics
>>732184079I wouldn't be surprised if even the devs got it wrong by accident.
>>732184079For me it was more that it just sits there over Lavos
>>732183304nigga you blind
>>732183225I STILL do not get it. Is the illusion that it's not actually a gun he's holding but some sort of tube shaped spy gadget?
>>732182692Wait, that's not supposed to be his mouth? Then what the hell is it?
>>732184782>>732182692no no, that's his mouth
>>732181101how horrifying
>>732184718the space between his fingers on his gun hand, held at the right height in front of the camera make it look like his mouth is unnaturally wide. hence the bottom architect's extra long grimace at not seeing a well fed woman.
>>732181101This is a pretty bad sprite so it's easy to see wrong
>>732185005>>732182992These are funny and Captain Vidya is from a better time but you know it's bullshit when somebody needs to ad the rest of his delusions to have it make any shred of sense
>>732183070Yeah it was one guy spamming it trying to force a meme, I guess enough time passed that part to be forgotten
>>732183317holee fug :DDD
>>732183304It doesn't work because his eyes are blue, whoever made that is either a retard or pretending on purpose
I thought the cyberdemon's nostrils were his eyes, still can't un-see that to this day>>732181328their bodies are normalish sized, but their
>>732184018What the fuck Terada worked on Terranigma? Genuinely and sincerely surprised and shocked.
>>732180994
>>732181101Is it really not the one on the right? Seems like it would have been easy to not make the sprite shit.
>>732185827>their bodies are normalish sized, but theirmeant to finish this with "eyes are ate looking through slits so they can't see very large images"
>>732182873Guilty
>>732185906>>732185827Double fail lol
>>732182128More like, people reminiscing of their childhood memories.
>Yugioh FM/DotR 3D visualizer vs original card art
>>732182128You're a bitter autistic faggot that can't possible imagine the possibility that other people perceive things different than you do.
>>732185928
>>732184782It is his mouth. It's his "nose" that's making the confusion.
>>732182992Ahh, better days, better days...
>>732180994Surely there is porn of the dog thing by now, right?
I thought this was a sociopathic evil cloud in a fancy green hat
>>732184907yeah but it looks like he's holding the gun wrong if that's indeed a gun.
>>732187415it felt sooooo good to finally jump on this guy
>>732185869What is it actually
>>732188013nobody saw this
>>732188072speak for yourself, fatso
>know I had several things I misread like this back in the day>cannot for the fucking life of me remember what they wereAnyone else?
>>732188013>removes the obvious nose end point>adds eyes that isnt there>its still hard to see Wild mental gymnastics
>>732188171This one got me as a kid who didn't watch the anime
>>732188171>Smithers
I used to think that the body of Goomba in the original SMB was a beak, similar to a hawk.
>>732183225Classic
>>732188172Only because it's been more than a decade since I saw them that way
Bump
>>732181101Was about to post this, I completely lost it the first time I saw it.
>>732182692china
>>732190118 my sides
>>732182873>ingame sprite uses completely different colors than intended designWhy did they do this?
>>732181607Christ this guy hasn't had breakfast this morning.
>>732187153Man, that's how I always saw it. I always felt it looked a bit awkward, but never thought much about it.In fact, I had to look at your picture for a while to figure out why you posted it.
>>732183304This is me but I thought the green antenna is a feather.
The image is made for ants, but it probably helps emphasise how things can look off on older smaller CRT TVs.
>>732194295I see more like a gorilla's chin on left instead.
>>732194295I see a mouth and like a pointy witch chin.
>>732183304I saw this too, my old monitor would blend in the colors and the sprite being tiny also didn't help.
When I played Bowser's Inside Story on the DS, I always thought Fawful had metal lips instead of a toothy grin.
This isn't something I ever saw as a kid but I remember seeing it mentioned in earlier thread. I don't have the original image saved, so I had to recreate it.There's also dog Wily, gotta see if I can find that one.
somewhat vidya related
>>732193571Colors may have been limited back then. Early displays couldn’t show a wide range of colors, so designers had to work with what was available.
>>732187919Only for him to show up again 10 seconds later.
>>732180994i always thought vincent's character icon in ff7 was this weird freak with red skin, one massive eyeball and his collar straps being an open mouth with exposed teethit's hard to see it now without being on a CRT
>>732181101I must replay IoG soon
>>732194295I HAD THIS SAME GOD DAMN PROBLEM WITH THE GAME!
>>732195929I can kinda see it by not focusing on it very much.
>>732195597
>>732196128Thanks dude, saving this one.
>>732180994In Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum I thought these NPC's had really high turtle necks but they're actually just holding DS's
>>732184010It's a Star Destroyer for fucks sake.
>>732183304its a me quoteio
>>732194295Even now that I know what it's supposed to be I still see the face on the right unless I try very hard not to.
>>732181607>being from a 3D seventh generation game that wouldn't be using sprites.You were saying?
>>732196278It looks like they are mooning the viewer
>>732190118YAWEH IS THAT YOU
>>732180994I always thought those things in the temple of the ancients in FF7 were a pokemon looking thing like Goodra, but they were actually human mages... Tell me im not the only one that thought this...
>>732194295I thought it was supposed to be like that forever because i didn't play FF9 and the only artwork i ever saw of her was that official one.
>>732194295What the fuck i only just found out now that shes not supposed to look like an old mummy. My life is a lie.
>>732195929Did you not own the manual?
>>732197493I saw this image and the first thing I thought was wondering how the fuck that was supposed to be Goodra before even reading your post. Sorry anon...
>>732197715Is the "seeming frail" the translators just making shit up? Because even without all the post OG stuff he looked like a muscular tall dude
>>732183906>>732184079There are just too many things that make it seem like a tall structure>slightly bobs up and down on the map>never changes position for 14,000 years so it looking like an aerodynamic ship is pointless>multiple long elevator sequences when inside>next to mountains in some time periods that make it look like the same tall perspectiveIf they really wanted it to be a long ship, they should have just had it pointed west or east instead of directly perfectly north.
>>732184079It kind of looks like a guy sitting on a throne imo. The white in the middle is his eyes and mouth, and he's got massive shoulders, huge ass space marine feet, and a pope hat.
>>732197945Here's the JP manual. The relevant line is "スマートな体型", which essentially means slim and lightly muscular.
>still no rugby player with a goatBoring
when I was very young, I used to see Peach on the cover of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time as some sort of angry chink dog creature with a black eyeI could not explain why her head seemed to be attached to her body sideways
>>732195929I can see it
>>732185827Feel free to fork the project under a
>>732199581Had you never seen a human before then?
Who else thought the Tentacles had little Vortigaunts riding on them? You don't really get a good look at them all I ever saw was the big eyeball and little dangling legs.
Took me long as a kid to understand the enemies were turtles, which I'd see as a good benign animal (ninja turtles, my pet tortoise, etc). I thought the joke was that they were insects larping as turtles:>shelless koopas = termites that were pretending to be turtles with a shell>thick shelless koopas (blue shells) = fat caterpillars>flying koopas = termites that didn't opt for a shell, instead having wings to flyDidn't help that were actual caterpillar enemies ingame, further confusing me.
The little bombs swimming towards Link always looked like Luigi to me.
>>732201440Insanity.
>>732200801no
>>732188659I thought it was a beard
>>732180994i doin't even know what im looking at the original pic
>>732183304...is this not what he is?
>>732183304this so much thispeople below>>732184601>>732185807>>732183770are larping, these eyes were so far apart it was just impossible to see it as a face. Dude is constantly running left and right, he shoots left and right, why would his face look directly at you?
>>732183135It's funny, the first time I saw spurdo I thought it was meant to reference that sprite
>>732182128The Warcraft sprites are INCREDIBLY unclear
>>732183135ebin
>>73219571590's TV's could distinguish green from red retard, it was a palette issue
>>732207535 Nah I’m with you. It never read as a face to me either, more like some abstract mechanical piece or maybe a glyph. People only started calling it a face after that one dev interview years later. Even then it felt like a retcon to justify the weird symmetry. Unless it was supposed to be a face being *worn* by something else (which kinda makes it scarier, honestly).
>>732201758Yeah I see it
>>732207469I saw these as angry cloud faces
>>732193571I AM A GREAT MAGICIANMY CLOTHES ARE RED
>>732207890It was a sprite limitation. Aghanim had the same color pallet as Link (and bunny Link which was why Link's hair was pink)
>>732207603I didn't realize until last year that the berserker stance icon was a screaming dwarf. When it's really tiny on your action bars it just looked like a chain or a shield being broken to me or something, I never saw the face.
ITT: Lots of NPCs who can't picture the apple in their head
>>732185843At least I "THINK" that he was the one who did the Nintendo Power / Club Nintendo illustrations for all those RPGs.He drew those infamous FF4 ones and the artstyle looks pretty similar.
>>732208026she slim!
>>732184010it's a star destroyer, with a giant bust-tower on top
>>732180994This one isn't mine, but I definitely saw it every time, even with a "nose".
>>732208560The goat.
>>732208560Ive seen this one a million times by now, i know what its supposed to be, and i still cant fucking see it
>>732207603They're clear now but on old monitors with shit resolution it was impossible to tell what some of them were
>>732208560what is is supossed to be?
>>732208910A broken skull buried in sand, the 7 is the nose ridge, the guy's head is the right orbit, his shoulder pad is the cheekbone and the sheep is the broken/hollow part
>>732209216A skull exploding, the "7" is the nose, the pistol is part of the jaw
>>732181101How did it look on CRT?
Just got into Touhou, so here is my contribution:
>>732210121Before someone calls me retarded, I thought it was supposed to be a niche reference to some Japanese gag about streetcars or something.
Papu Papu in CTR. I thought his chin was a smirking smile, his lips were a red nose, and that he had two tiny eyes that were really close together.
>>732208026now I get why people say stripes make you look slimmer
>>732207038Yeah this
>>732208205It's the avatar icon from WC3, which made sense because it was a dwarf powerup. Made far less sense to be recycled in wow. Then additionally awkward when warriors actually got avatar
>>732210632Same. The CRT we had did not show the white part of his eyes at all.
>>732208560kek, i opened the thread for this one
>>732208231Kain is awfulCecil is just funnyEdward is greatRosa is goodCid works, but should have a big beardRydia is nonsenseTellah is okay, but should have glassesYang is goodEdge is surprisingly greatPalom and Porom are horribleI don't understand why he ignored some of the main features of the characters
>>732196128The original Doro...
>>732210632I'm still not sure how it's meant to look like, even if I always knew the way my eyes interpreted it was wrong (because Papu Papu does NOT look like a smirking Chief O'Hara, the Mickey Mouse character).
>>732211414
>>732211308>>732208231Rosa's sprite and face artwork suggested "1980s aerobics babe"
>>732209370broke my brain trying to understand it but finally
>>732209323AT LAST I TRULY SEE.
>>732183304tgis could make sense for like 10 seconds before you walk out of the firs room and see that 90% of npcs have the I _ I eyes/face
I always used to think that he's got a black eye socket, a nostril and a single tooth, but apparently the "tooth" is actually his eye and the black holes are just ornaments.
>>732212860>the "tooth" is actually his eyeThat reminds me
mmm croissant
so is he supposed to have a stupid frown?
>>732208560came here for this
>>732195715What about Link's hair??
>>732185827>>732200464kekdid notice the nostrils, but I thought he was eyeless
>>732197493Every time I play ff7 I tell myself I'll remember that thing and it always slips into oblivion
>>732208560Here's how they remastered itall soul removed
>>732197194This is a LOD retard, even today games do this.
>>732180994wth is that supposed to be
>>732213496it's a skull? man that's nowhere near as cool.
>>732208231is he just an Amano wannabe with no understanding of aesthetics?
>>732208205Blue eyes white dragon
>>732213119I think it's a bowtie
>>732188013I thought it was a HUMONGOUS mole peeking his headwhile keeping his body underground and the claws were like heir tufts or one of those egyptian pharaoh hoods
>>732213739He actually IS talented.Nintendo probably simply told him>"do this in a western style and on a budget. Nope, Square didn't send us any reference material for game X but there's an old guy, some weird midgets and a white knight in my party here on my screen - you figure out the rest..."Probably the most amusing thing is that he was also tasked with redrawing the Secret of Evermore characters for whatever reason.
>>732214307Meanwhile, stuff like his Prince of Persia or Zelda artworks rock.
>>732214396Same guy? that's amazingI actually thought that was Amano so I won't take back the wannabe part
Glasses, you'll need glasses
I firmly believe that misreading wc3 icons means there's something wrong with youThere's no way my 10 year old ass understood everything yet people keep seeing parrots and shit. What the fuck.
The fairies from the Oracle games always tripped me up. I can see what they're supposed to be if I really look at the sprite, but I can't stop my self from seeing a red flying caterpie at first
at least half of these are people blowing up the sprites to 600x600 then going >now, what do I see if I try hard xD
>>732215141they looked like Maya the Bee to me
>>732215387
>>732210632Alex really let himself go
>>7322157857
>>732215785That's canon
So it's Gygas supposed to be a torso of a guy with two arms and an alien head, or a deformed head doing a drunken soiface?
>>732217115It's just a ghost face with an open mouth stretched out and wispy
>>732217170I always saw the torso guy though. And it's much cooler than the drunken face.
>>732215785this shit is too funny
>>732217115it's a fetus
>>732215785Can't unsee.
>>732217282I don't even understand how to see that
>>732217809deboonked
>>732217945The two sides are his arms, and top part is the head with sanic hair and face spikes
>>732218458No matter how hard I try I can't see thisEspecially because there are clearly teeth visible in the soiface optionI'm convinced half of these posts are people trolling
>>732207469>>732207932
>>732218458Doesn't work at all with the teeth and obvious eye sockets and nostrils

>>732208026Olive Oyl...
>>732197715This isn't a sprite thing but as a kid I always saw art of Yuffie on the internet and thought her arm cover was like a big extra bit of flesh that was bolted onto her skin and found it super disgusting as a design.
>>732209215That's actually pretty accurate to how May is drawn in porn.

Warcraft 2 was the first top-down game I ever saw and I could not parse the Peasants, to this day they look like they're headless, with the black hair looking like holes ala Serious Sam enemies
>>732222861i can kinda see it, it doesn't help that they've got battleborn syndrome
>>732218773>>732218909I can't draw but basically the nostrils are on the shoulder level, and everything below is just the torso.
>>732207297Look at his sprite in the remake, it makes it more obvious he's looking at the screen.

>>732208071>palletamerican moment
>>732225370four forks on a purple carpet

>>732183906How do so many people misinterpret this when you can have the Epoch oriented the same way on the same screen?
>>732208231Did he even look at the sprites beforehand?
>>732226593Never saw the top. Taban always looked like a surly bastard to me.
>>732225370salty milk and coins
>>732207880It indeed took me about a second to refocus and see the forks but that is hardly the mindfuck advertised.
>>732208071>>732224098I think they just did it because he blended in too well with the ground and grass otherwise
>>732228569This is really it, some CRTs back then were horrifyingly bad.
>>732228214I think shadow has to do with it. Yes, it still has clear features like you'd get from top-down view, but it's also kind of squished?
>>732183906My favorite is Slash, which Square themselves misinterpreted the sprite and can't decide if he has really big lips or a mustache
>>732229548Or that's a really big nose
>>732229548Always looked like lips to me

>>732180994Its kinda hard to explain but when I 1st played FFVII I thought Red's face was more rounded in his menu art. I drew how I thought his face shape was.
>>732230178still see it, kek
>>732229462That's exactly it. The shadow is the cause of the misinterpretation. It should be much longer
>>732196278As a kid I thought these guys were just having a pissing contest. It looks like their backs are against the camera and they're holding their wieners, looking at each other. I never thought they had DS consoles. It's retarded anyway, why are they looking at each other instead of just looking at the screen?
>>732232090It's a little dark spirit corrupting a sword.
>>732229548I think the "moustache" is just him frowning
>>732213496Call me crazy but I can still FEEL the sportball guy and the sheep in that icon. Like a phantom pain I just can't shake the feeling of what used to be there.
>>732218458I still don't understand what the fuck happened here between Mother 1's cute lil alien thing and this.There are only a few years between Mother 1 and 2 so the whole "going back in time" thing is presumably before 1? There was some talk of Giygas himself time traveling too though, so maybe it's mindbroken future Giygas actually?And no it's not the alien abortion thing, Itoi himself shot that down
>>732232940It's supposed to be mindbroken future Giygas that's been so corrupted by power that he lost his corporeal form and has to be contained in the Devil's Machine. The red mist is what comes out after the Devil's Machine gets turned off.
The undisputed champion
>>732211712The horns from his helmet are covering the sides of his face in a weird way, it's hard to tell that it's even supposed to be a face at first because of them.
>>732183304literally mewhen i saw the remake and quote was looking at the camera i was like wtf???
>>732193571HE'S A GREAT MAGICIAN
>>732229548well... it's a toriyama design...
>>732227221To be fair I think WoW actually uses that icon for parrot items
>>732190118Kek
>>732230178Can't unsee
>>732183906It's a Star Destroyer right?
this thing is either a griffon or a thunderbird
>>732188013Fucking retard
>>732226285I see it. Los Santos was a sassy mutant cyborg reptile all along
I don't have the means of drawing out what I saw at the moment, but I definitely saw a face in the OOT minimap. The big circle being an eye, and where that player's yellow icon is, there is a gap in the line that makes it look like a mouth. Then that triangle right above is a nose.
>>732239325Meanwhile I saw Kakariko Village's map as a deformed Goron with huge buck teeth. Kinda reminiscent of the Goron baby in MM before I played MM
>>732180994What is it supposed to be?
>>732182992this isn't pausible because robotnik turns his head every time you hit him.
>>732239325I see it, but at that point anything can be a face>>732239374This is pretty genius, cannot unsee
>>732180994The person who drew that goes by Dawmino and now draws hyper futanari furry porn.
>>732240813i thought he drew obese furry porn
>>732236731I see Vulcan 7 of 9 here
>>732229548I thought it was like a ninja mask.
Here's a personal one, I was like 4 when Crystal came out, but I was a retarded child.
>>732241620>Vulcan 7what's that
bunp
>>732242925Not a misunderstood sprite, but a related mandela effect, I thought Croconaw had a wooden club as part of his design, the same way Farfetch'd has a leek.
I always thought Chiquita logo was an alien monster. Turns out it's a woman with a fruit bowl
>>732245436Probably because of his Caveman look
>>732182873Right is unironically cooler
>>732183906>star destoryer>christmas treeniggas that TRIANGLE has GOOGLY EYES
>>732188659yeah I always saw a beak tooI still try to maintain it, I thought it was cooler than what it turned out to be (a mushroom)
>>732180994As a kid I thought Shadow was a black dude with shades.I really don't know why since they have those portraits in the menu
>>732249974I kinda get it. I've known some dudes as black as Shadow. Funny, they all had rottweilers and dobermans too. And a couple of them probably did robberies.
>>732183906
>>732226102funny they're leaking their timezone instead, anon with no name is likely south american
>>732196128lmao
>>732228214see>>732184165
>>732249974Wait is that purple dot supposed to be his eye? I thought his whole face was covered and he was wearing some cyclops shit on his head.
In the book Rockman Memories (published in 1997), there's a comment that says when Dr Light saw Metalman for the first time, he remarked the robot looked like "a dentist of the future".
>>732210632It always looked like a smiling clown with polka dot eyes to me.
>>732183139youd have to be retarded
>>732195715...so then just make Aghanim green?
>>732217115
>>732195929i always saw that as a kid even though i knew it was a zipper or something
>>732197194of all the things in me3 this was the fucking dumbest to get buttmad about
>>732234058See, that's the thing that's so weird. I know how Papu Papu looks, but the little mugshot is so squished that I legitimately cannot see it the right way, I'm just unable to see the little red circle as a mouth instead of a goofy nose, and everything unravels from there.
>>732216249kek
>>732187415it's not ?
>>732183225I can't unsee this one.
>>732183304oh fuck...
>>732188013you're retarded
>>732188013I have a better one
>>732249974I thought this is a black guy wearing a bandana. I didn't know he was a ninja until years later after seeing his portrait art.
>>732240813>now
>>732181101What's funny is when I first played this game, I saw it the correct way at first, and at some point later on I saw it the wrong way and thought there was a new freaky evil character.
I feel some of these are less than genuine...
>>732246048how fucking dumb are you
I thought these guys were crabs and was pretty bummed they weren't when the reignited trilogy came out.
>>732252572Would.
>>732180994Oh my gosh redditsisters....
>>732185890Now that you have the Internet and 30 years of pixel art community and guides? Yes yes you are very talented anon.

To this day I still can't see the bodies as anything other than beaks, I used to think they were some weird bird creatures
>>732180994The Lives Counter from Donkey Kong Country 1.It's always looked like a little ghost to me. I didn't even realize what it was until like last year when I replayed it on a whim. I can still hardly interpret it otherwise.
what would be the equivalent of the rorschach test of this confusing sprites
This is one I had as recent as a few hours ago.
>>732215785giraffes don't have genitals on their chest
>>732257734?????
>>732224098I always see it as the brim of the hat being pink rather than his hair. because if you see the pink as his hair then his hat looks way too small on his head, like he's wearing a jew hat.
>>732256861Were you working at Rainbow Arts in the 80s by any chance?
>>732255032 About as dumb as thinking Zelda was the guy and Metroid was the robot. Everyone's got at least one gaming moment where their brain just straight-up blue-screened.
>>732257734No shit retard. they also don't have fore legs connected to their necks.
>>732258482>>732257734also i'm told they're only rarely seen wearing jeans and boots.
>>732253092I mean I can see your interpretation too but come on man it's not too hard
The health bar in Yoshi's Story. It still looks like the flower ended up getting a mustache whenever you died. I can't see it as anything else other than a mustache.
>>732183172
>>732257224 Bro I thought it was a screaming onion or something when I was a kid. Like, some haunted vegetable that just happened to be keeping track of how many tries I had left. It wasn’t until I saw the balloon promo art that it clicked. That low-res render really did it no favors lmao.
>>732185005Genuinely don't understand what the drawn image is even supposed to be. A camel head robot? How do you see that from the sprite?
>>732213551And? What did that anon say? A 7th gen 3D game wouldn't use sprites. I know English is difficulty, particularly when you were taught to read with the Whole Language method, but do try to comprehend what is being said and responded to.

>>732254691lmao
>>732207880Kind of frightening to think of the possible subliminal messaging you can hide in plain sight if you master this type of imagery.
>>732196128holy kek
>>732196278I thought the Gen 3 version of this NPC type was holding a big cup of coffee/hot chocolate
>>732264912I can see it.
What about things that were exactly what they looked like but not exactly what we thought they were?
>>732213496Opening this is the only time I've ever been able to see the original. Like a flashbang of consciousness
>old images from games i need to make my brain work to see the right wayYou have made a good contribution>everything elseYou are a fuckwit
Not a sprite but I played Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX all the way through as a kid reading the character of the "Wind Fish" in my brain as wind, the verb, which rhymes with mind, like when you reel in some fishing lure. Even at the final boss I was thinking to myself what the heck is a Wind fish
>>732261330>t. ChatGPT
>>732249974Wait, he fucking ISN'T?
>>732207880I'm sorry but if you didn't immediately identify these as forks you unironically have some type of cognitive disability
>>732196278This is just bad sprite design. It's too much of the same color. The DS should be a different color
>>732254952whats the lore behind(heh) the anime asshole girl
>>732265815He's got a chibi big head, and what you thought was his eye is just a Naruto headband.
Not a personal one but the amount of people I've seen remark that they thought Momo's ears were either head wings, or just feathers attached to her hat always catches me off guard.
>>732256298Not really any need to act like that anon, calm yourself down and take a moment.

>>732265718>t. Fleshcuck
>>732259951The funny part is the thing this actually is is now more dangerous to authority than the thing it mistakenly looks like.
>>732259918Same.
>>732266562Yeah, a lot of people don't even realize that she's a bunny girl, her animal nose isn't so obviously with the ps1 low resolution but you can definitely notice it in other artworkI fucking love bof3
>>732269981There's a book of 4koma for BoF3 and it's up to the whims of the artist if she has her animal nose. Heck, even the guy who designed her in the first place seems to just flip a coin on if she'll have one in the drawings he's done of her.
>>732208205To me, this looks kind of like a guy with his back turned, getting stabbed in the chest by a slice of pizza
>>732210632Same. I thought the icon was of a weird clone with two socks on his head. I always wondered why they chose that icon for a guy who looked nothing like that.
>>732270305>clone*clown
>>732270131yeah, I'm aware and it's really funny, but I was specifically referring to stuff you'd only see in-game and the manual. Hell, Yoshikawa made Momo art just two years ago without the bunny nose, I'm starting to think it has become a sort of an inside joke
>>732225567You can see it if you squint - which is probably a decent approximation of how it would've looked on a CRT
>>732270531Sort of related, I love when fan art that can't tell she's wearing a mortarboard and they just completely change the shape of the hat or turn the tassel into some random dangling charm or the like.

always saw the Los Santos map as Homer Simpson in profile, complete with the blue crayon lodged in his brain
>>732257734They're not on his chest. He has his pants pulled down slightly.
>>732266562The fuck? They're NOT feathers?
>>732280284reminds me, first time I saw X i thought he was some sort of elf or some shit somehow

>>732280595>Inafune outside this one anon's window doing the sickos laugh as he gets the idea for Cyber Elves
>>732280672I'm not used to bunnygirls having ears anywhere but the top of their heads. Doesn't help that iirc you meet her in Windia which is full of people with wings or something.
This rock texture always looked like a girl with big titties to me
>>732281856I see a dragon.
>>732281856Looks like a turtle to me

>>732183225I have no idea how this box art got approved, they should have immediately noticed this and reworked it
>>732283809I can't see it. I can only see the chick
>>732207469I can't ever not see thatbut instead of the beard it has a pinocchio nose
The rooster statue, I always saw a weird surrealist face, with the wing as its nose
>>732283746Yeah, gotta admit, I did see it as this as a kid. I just tried not to think about it too much. First thing in the thread that I actually saw
>>732281856I see Gohma
>>732187153I was too captivated by the nonsensical placement of Saturday
>>732193571>>732207890>>732208071I was wondering about this, so I did a bit of digging.>Aghanim had the same color palette as Linkthat's wrong. Agahnim's green is #90D038 and #688020, Link uses #78B820 (hat), #509010 (hat shading), #40D870 (tunic), and #389068 (tunic shading). Agahnim's colors are not used on any of Link's sprites.Agahnim's greens DO share a palette with another few sprites... The thief that steals your money in the Lost Woods, the king as a skeleton in the game's intro, and the electric blob enemy. These characters all share exactly the same palette for every used color. There are NPC palettes that contain red (like the thief NPCs). I don't know why they didn't pick one of those Agahnim unless it was a specific design choice.Likewise, Link's hair is #E860B0, while the rabbit's fur is #F098A8 and #B86078. They don't match up.These palettes are all pulled from Spriter's Resource rips. Pic related is the palettes all juxtaposed. First row is Link, second row is the rabbit, and the third is Agahnim, the thief, the skeleton king, and the buzz blob. I copied Agahnim's green color switches next to Link's for comparison. I couldn't find any other sprites that matched Link's hair, although I didn't check every overworld tileset, just a handful of them. It doesn't match any UI element, enemy, or NPC. I think I checked them all.
>>732215785the inevitable RE6 remake will ruin this and I'm preemptively disappointed
>>732226285I always saw Homer's head, Fort Zancudo being the nose and the Alamo Sea being his brain just matches perfectly
>>732280595First time me and my friend saw Zero we thought he was a girl for longer than I'd care to admit.
>>732265152Advance wars has many in my opinion.
>>732276823it Midnas
>>732285580wheres the gif
>>732180994okay but what actually is it if its not a smug dog
>>732232940If you turn the red background white it's in the shape of Giegue's body
>>732249974I thought he was wearing a knight helmet and the brown was the mask part with the holes
>>732285580i find this one funny mostly because you couldn't even fucking get totodile in gen 3
>>732232940When you travel back in time in earthbound time still passes. So like if I went back to the year 2025 I'd age a year that's why ness and everyone had to go into robot bodies. I might have made all this up completely though. But its something like that. Someone who knows shit will correct me
>>732208231Kain is packing holy shit. Rosa really missed out.
>>732208231Rydia is a bbw?So that's why I loved her.
I can't see them any other way nor do I want to.
>>732210878what?
>>732182873I'm a pixel artist who tried to redraw Agahnim and it was really difficult to do it in Lttp's style. Kinda makes him look like he's got his big blue cock out. Or maybe I just suck idk.
>>732256298You don't really need a guide to understand that the eyes should be white, you know, like every other character sprite.
>>732290363yeah, "looks like"
>>732290468I can assure you that was not my intention
>snake turns south>becomes a little angry big lipped fella
>>732290472
These threads have to be insane on shrooms. You can see everything as anything.
This one still baffles me. It's supposed to be a chime. I just see a wooden club hitting a big ball of leaves.
>>732246048to be fair its not a normal woman with a fruit bowl. its some kinda banana woman with a fruit bowl. still pretty retarded
>>732266893Lol, you're a hack
>>732291312I see it more like a club smashing an orc face
>>732291550>its some kinda banana woman with a fruit bowlIt's a banana woman based on Carmen Miranda who wore stuff like that
>>732290363Actually I think most of the problems with this came with trying to be too complicated with the shading when lttp has very simplistic shading. Is this better?
