It's just a rip from a clone game, not Black Squirrel's original work. In all, BS did a great job. Nice rip, but yes, it hurts to just look at them! Especially Bowser.

Weirdness! I thought the rules were 3 colors per sprite, not 3 colors per game?!?!

Despite the...shall we say...ODD coloring, they are pretty accurate to the NES Super Mario Bros Sprites wouldn't you say?

Note that the PC88's colour pallette is barely more than the original gameboy. I counted 8 possible colours on my last couple of sheets, although I can't say for sure since I don't know the techincal specifications.

As for Super Mario Bros. Special - It isn't a hack or some stupid edit, it hasn't been submitted in poor compression quality , that's how it looks in game. Why is this? Because the PC88 only has 8 or so colours and probably not enough memory to actually display a ton of different pallettes on sprites. Super Mario Bros. Special is probably the same size as the original game, which was a fairly big game for it's day. The PC88 probably had a hard time coping with this, meaning certian cuts had to be made (Like the scrolling, although I'm not sure if the PC88 could handle that anyway).

The result is aweful, I agree, but it still could be used for some Thingio type game that specialises in weirdness and obscurity. If Wario Ware managed to stick in a Mario Clash virtual boy minigame, I'm sure that a Wario Ware fangame could do something similar with this.

For some education on the game, please see this link:

This is an awesome set of rips; you saved me from having to rip it myself. Is there any chance you can rip some more stuff like tilesets, and SMBS-exclusive enemies and power-ups (such as the Sidesteppers, Hammers, Hudson Honeybee, et cetera)?
