Misread sprites in retro games. Everyone has them.
Time to be quirky and pretend to misread things for upvotes!
>tfw the fucking translators don't actually do their job and decide to misread a sprite insteadthanks, Moyse
>>12436179not sprites, but as a kid my dad insisted that the monkeys in super monkey ball wore diapers due to their asses being lighter-colored and smeared over composite. now that i think about it he might've just been fucking with me the entire time
>>12436187obsessed
>>12436189explain?
>>12436312The thing is a Myconid but the translator instead called it "leaf-vulture" because he thought that the hair made of leaves was a wing and the hand of the raised left arm a beak.
>>12436316i forgot that they called the first form a myconid. i was under the impression that myconids were specifically mushroom people. maybe that is a mistranslation/misunderstanding in some way. but regardless, i find it to be a pretty awful sprite read to think that thing was a bird and not a little swamp-man raising his arm. first time hearing about this one.
nes monster party. probably the most universal one. EVERYBODY thought this thing was a crumpled up dead spider.

I still have no idea what this was supposed to be and why it was in the game.
>>12436187Do you really live your life in fear of doing something reddit?
>>12436778Considering the carnival aesthetic with the ferris wheel I'd say it's a tent.
>>12436778Some type of cake below a glass bell?
>>12436737Spiders, famous for having lizard heads and fingers and toes.
>>12436786>zoomer has nothing to add so he miraculously sees the image properly after already knowing what its supposed to be
these guys in a link to the pasti still have to concentrate to not see an angry guy with big lips
>>12436801Well, what are they?

In Star Ocean 2 I always thought the back of Claude's sprite looked like a weird island native kid>tan jacket is the brown skin, white pants not wearing a shirt, looks like he's wearing sandals
>>12436737It was a weird thing, before seeing that toy art I could only see an apologetic mangling mess, and the game was already weird so by filling the spaces a spider was the closest thing possible (the bad quality of my older TVs didn't help)
>>12436801They do turn around you know.
>>12436778I'm seeing a bouncing castle surrounded by some energy wave. Still it makes no sense.
>>12436875It's a little super saiyan house.
