Mega Man's Orange Costume

Flame Blast isn't the only Robot Master Weapon that gives Mega Man this color scheme. Almost every single fire-based Special Weapon in the Mega Man games gives Mega Man this color palette. Fire Storm (MM1), Atomic Fire (MM2), Pharaoh Shot (MM4), Flame Blast (obviously, MM6), Flame Sword (MM8), Wave Burner (MM&B), Magma Bazooka (MM9) and Solar Blaze (MM10) all use this type of color scheme. The only fire-type weapon in Mega Man's arsenal that doesn't follow this coloring tradition is the Scorch Wheel (MM7). Maybe change the current line to say "Resembles most of Mega Man's fire-based Robot Master weapons from across the franchise." SMM9673 (talk) 23:52, May 11, 2019 (EDT)

K. Rool's White Costume

The link for Mr. X leads to a blank page. I suggest changing it to lead to [1] to fix this. (Mr. X does not have a page on either the Super Mario wiki or the Donkey Kong wiki.) Burgrr (talk) 02:54, March 19, 2019 (EDT)

Wolf's Green Color is Leon

As it does resemble his Multiplayer colors, it is also a reference to Leon Powalski, Wolf's only consistent ally throughout every single game. The Green and Yellow matches his skin and scars as well as the purple to his body suit. It seems suitable that Leon is also referenced just like other colors reference the other members of Star Wolf. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shawksta64 (talk • contribs) 10:14, March 25, 2019

Ness' Green Alt

This alt has appeared in every smash game, but none of the other pages note it as a reference to Everdred. It still has a notable color similarity, but it lacks any notable similarities to his flowery shirt pattern. I'm not sure if there is a plausible source, but if there isn't I think the line should be removed. RandomUltimate (talk) 13:01, March 28, 2019 (EDT)

Isabelle's alternate costumes

Wanted to clear up some potential inaccuracies in the references for Isabelle's alternate costumes:

• Pink: The pink top with purple skirt very strongly resembles Pelly and Phyllis' outfits.
• Purple: I can't quite place this one, but I'm fairly certain it's meant to resemble an important character (like Sable or Reese) rather than a personal outfit Isabelle wears. It could also be Phyllis (her purple feathers as the purple top).
• Grey: This bears very little semblance to Isabelle's jean apron she wears on Labor Day. Rather, her clothes do strongly resemble those that Brewster wears (since he also wears black and white).
• Blue: Her light blue sweater and dark blue skirt look far more like Cyrus (who has light blue fur and a dark blue apron) than one-day-a-year Zipper T. Bunny (who just wears medium blue overalls).

Overall, I believe her alternate costumes (aside from her default and the yellow sweater) are meant to represent important characters in Animal Crossing rather than other outfits she wears.

Bayonetta's yellow and white costumes

These aren't definitive matches, but they're better than nothing:

• Yellow: The closest match for this is probably Loki from Bayonetta 2, as he wears a yellow hoodie and is predominantly yellow and orange. It also helps that the base costume is her Bayonetta 2 look (costume and color from the same game).
• White: I can think of three possible matches being Father Balder, the Masked Lumen, or Jeanne's white uniform (with black hair instead of white).

Wii Fit Trainer's Default

I'm pretty sure the default Wii Fit Trainer's hair is not from Wii Fit Plus and just from the original Wii Fit just like the rest of her design. In it she can have at least three different hairstyles, including the ponytail. The same can be said of the male Wii Fit Trainer, whose Smash hairstyle is also available in the original Wii Fit game. I suggest updating the page to reflect this. --99.88.120.176 00:43, April 14, 2019 (EDT)

Update: This may be unnecessary but I just want to say thanks for adding it in. --99.88.120.176 11:25, April 16, 2019 (EDT)

Joker's White School Uniform

It is a reference to his summer Shujin uniform, not Goro Akechi. It is simply giving the colors of Joker's summer school uniform to the winter model, right down to the pants. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mann-Nova (talk • contribs) 00:53, April 17, 2019 (EDT)

I'm going to assume whomever added the Akechi part has never seen Akechi before? He wears a gray coat, not a white one, and there's no black on the collar either. If anything, Joker's white uniform looks more like Ideo Hazama from if... or Persona 2's Joker (which would be most likely given his name), both of who actually wear white clothing with black accents. For reference: Hazama Joker. I should also add in his 5th red costume also seems to be based on Arsene, he shares the red jacket, gray vest and black gloves. --Scheherazade (talk) 19:27, April 17, 2019 (EDT)

I was skeptical about it too, but as I'm not especially familiar with Persona, I went and re-added it as a "passing resemblance". I think the summer uniform is probably the closest resemblance, though. DryKirby64 (talk) 19:58, April 17, 2019 (EDT)

Could be. When I first saw it I immediatly thought it was a reference to Hazama, but since he's a villain I guess not. Since there's no yellow on it I don't think it's based on Persona 2 Joker either. --Scheherazade (talk) 16:06, April 20, 2019 (EDT)

K. Rool's Mr. X costume

I've just noticed the link to dkwiki's article on Mr. X leads to an "article doesn't exist" page, and said wiki has no page on Kackle either. I can't edit the article to correct this but wouldn't it just be easier to link to an image of Mr. X in this case? Example given. --Scheherazade (talk) 16:16, April 20, 2019 (EDT)

I guess the link could be changed to the section discussing Mr. X on the Super Mario Wiki. The section is at this link. KungFuLakitu (talk) 17:19, April 20, 2019 (EDT)

Good catch! I forgot that the Super Mario Wiki had DKC articles. Also on the topic of updating the Mr. X link, maybe the description of the color scheme could do with a minor reword. Maybe I'm being nitpicky, but currently it says K. Rool's white costume is "Based on Mr. X" when the descriptions for other unverified references with costumes say "Resembles character". I don't remember seeing any sort of official confirmation that the white costume was based on Mr. X, especially since there's no source to verify it, so I feel that saying it's definitely "based on" is a bit too strong.--Scheherazade (talk) 21:16, April 20, 2019 (EDT)

Cyan Inkling

After the N-Zone (5/19 p. 10) is the cyan Inkling resembles Specs from the manga. Pokemon (talk) 10:53, April 21, 2019 (EDT)

Updating from Demo Pictures

For some reason Kirby, Zelda, Marth, R.O.B., Villager, Paluneta, and Simon's pallets haven't been updated from their demo pictures yet. I'd change them myself, but I unfortunately don't know how. Wolff (talk) 17:13, May 7, 2019 (EDT)

What do you mean by that? All of them have their full palettes. Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Sonic Fan Leave a message if needed 19:24, May 7, 2019 (EDT)

I guess something's wrong with the images on that page with my computer then. Weird. Wolff (talk) 15:13, May 8, 2019 (EDT)

Lucina's Purple costume

I know everyone says it's based on Sumia, but I feel like it references Panne. It makes more sense that all her costumes are based on the women who can't be her mother.203.63.233.223 09:19, May 28, 2019 (EDT)
