Yeah, I'd say that it looks like Zelda has an OoT3D costume and a separate OoT/Melee costume.

 

[The Captain]

hey guys let's discuss which Lucina alt is your favorite

The colors of her canon mother, Sumia.

I'm still leaning lighter pink/lighter hair as Toon Zelda. She isn't that blonde in Ocarina of Time or Melee.

awwwww snap!


lol

Spoiler

Cordelia color is best color

Too bad she could never inherit those colors naturally.

 

[Fiktion]

Tharja is the obvious choice so I'm going to say Lissa.

 

[zroid]

Cordelia is the only correct choice

 

[DICKS AHOY]

Lucina probably has my favorite colors in terms of everything being a reference to something or in this case, a different FE:A girl. I'd say the same for Samus but while it'd obviously be more work, part of me wishes stuff like the Fusion/Dark/Light suit physically changed her suit model as well. Palutena's suffer a bit from her hair color never changing so the Pandora/Viridi/Hades/Medussa references in her recolors don't come through that well.

Pac-Man and Sonic both have the worst colors by far. Pac especially since in the 3DS character select screen I can barely even tell them apart since his gloves and shoes are mostly cropped out!

 

[theprodigy]

surprised nobody said Tiki yet lol

Cordelia is the only correct choice

I always knew you were a good person

And you still believe the Bowser alt is based on ALTTP?

 

[Golnei]

I think Tharja's palette looks the worst - if anything, it should have been used on Robin. As for the rest, Tiki's the best, followed by Lissa, Cordelia, Sumia, Cherche and Nowi; Tharja in last place because of the ugly, clashing shade of yellow chosen. They really should have replaced the last three with Nephenee, Mia and Eirika.

 

[Moonlight]

hey guys let's discuss which Lucina alt is your favorite

Cordelia Anna alt, Tiki alt, and the Tharja alt. Tharja mostly just because I think the black hair/tunic looks really good on Lucina than Tharja herself. Cordelia Anna alt for the obvious reasons, and Tiki pulls double duty as repping the Best Manakete and if you squint you can say she's repping Terra, too.

I like this suggestion!

awww you'll come around to admitting it eventually :3

 

[Neiteio]

I think Tharja Lucina looks nice. Black and gold is always an eye-catching combination. That Lissa Lucina looks amazing, though.

At any rate, my favorite alternate color is green Bowser, who I like to interpret as a throwback to Bowser's sprite in SMB1 and SMW. And while it might not have been intentional, it also reminds me of "King Koopa" in the DIC cartoon.

 

[Neoxon]

The colors of her potential mother that doesn't bring about the True Son of Chrom named Inigo, Sumia.

FTFY

....I think I just realized what the inspiration for King K Rool was

 

[Xpike]

The colors of her canon mother, Sumia.

Nah brah, my Robin is the canon mother and no one's taking that from me.

 

[Golnei]

Also, speaking of recolours, I like how the Zero Mission palette looks on Brawl Ridley. It makes the googly eyes seem a little less incongruous, at least.

Nah brah, my Robin is the canon mother and no one's taking that from me.

Also that.

 

[TWILT]

Cherche Lucina is clearly the best one.

No bias or anything.

I also think that color palette makes Ridley look cooler as well.

Spoiler

Brawl mods, I love them so.

Haven't seen any good Ridley movesets though.

 

[theprodigy]

wait what are all of Robin's alts based off of again?

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

I prefer default Lucina since blue is my favorite color, but my favorite alt is Tiki Lucina.

Nah brah, my Robin is the canon mother and no one's taking that from me.

But then we wouldn't have this hilarious conversation.

[The Captain]

Huh? I was just pulling that up because it seemed familiar and I was wondering if the pink hair was just reminding me of Link to the Past's Link. Of course I don't actually believe that.

And yeah, I'm still on board with dark purple blonde Zelda being Ocarina of Time Zelda and pink light blonde Zelda being Toon Zelda.

Anna. Emmeryn. Olivia.

On the subject of support conversations, it really bothered me that most conversations went like this:
C rank: friendly conversation
B rank: friendly conversation
A rank: friendly conversation
S rank: MARRY ME
I know they had to keep options open, but it just seems so sudden.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

Anna. Emmeryn. Olivia.

Robin's white alt. reminds me of the Sage of Six Paths.
At least the male does.

It's the best of both :3

Chrom is actually picky, should be Robin

Speaking of alt talk, some Tumblr images showcase the origins of some alt costumes.

I still wonder why they didn't give Ness a Lucas color palette. At least give him some blonde hair.

Iggy's face kills me.

you get NOTHING, that's why

I still stand by my earlier assertion that Tiki!Lucina looks like Terra Branford.

I thought the same thing

 

[The Captain]

I hope I'm not the only one that's bothered by the lack of a hair color change in Palutena's character-inspired costumes.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

I hope I'm not the only one that's bothered by the lack of a hair color change in Palutena's character-inspired costumes.

That's literally what I said near the top of this page! Makes the references really vague and nobody else's hair seemed off-limits so it's weird.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

I hope I'm not the only one that's bothered by the lack of a hair color change in Palutena's character-inspired costumes.

Add Marth and Ike to that list as well.

I would have never gotten that obscure Japanese Mario Bros movie costume without thatr gallery. Now, where are our western SMB movie palettes?

 

[Golnei]

That's literally what I said near the top of this page! Makes the references really vague and nobody else's hair seemed off-limits so it's weird.

I share that sentiment - it also serves to make the costumes less distinct than they could be. The same could also be said for Marth's Roy palette, Ike's Greil and Chrom palettes, Link's ALTTP palette and a few others. Maybe I should do a few colour edits to demonstrate.

 

[BGBW]

Pretty sure that's not a Dr. Stewart reference what with the lack of red scarf and blue gloves. Also Pico's colours don't seem to match at all.

However, what the colours do seem to match is their vehicle's colours.

Sakurai loves Awakening confirmed

 

[J@hranimo]

Looking at that Mario Bros alt, is Sakurai a tad colorblind?

Please do.

Pac Man has the worst colors though - I remember looking at GameXplain's video of all the color swaps, and being unable to tell what color he was because his hands and feet were cut off.

 

[friskykillface]

light x dark samus is best suit color

also like the game boy colors for kirby and king dedede


also at the toon link colors, never saw all the retro ones, might just use him occasionally now, as opposed to never, link to the past link B^)

 

[zroid]

Such a scam. Where are the ponytails, Sakurai? WHERE?!

 

[Berordn]

FEH. That's not Atomic Fire.

It's Flame Blast!

The blue one is also Air Shooter, not Ice Slasher. RESEARCH, TUMBLR PEOPLE! But it is neat that the weapons he uses are actually represented with their proper alt colors.
