Talk:Costume Mario

Bowser
Someone (I am not sure who) listed in the amiibo page that Bowser can be used. Since I have not seen a source in the internet about it I'm not sure if I should list him. Marioguy (talk) 17:25, 12 July 2015 (EDT)
 * According to this revision, has added this information. You can request this user for the source of that claim.  21:44, 12 July 2015 (EDT)

Thank you. Marioguy (talk) 07:58, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

His source is a youtube video showing a level with Mario collecting a Mystery Mushroom and getting a Bowser Costume. Marioguy (talk) 15:01, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

P.S. Can I add this? Marioguy (talk) 15:52, 13 July 2015 (EDT)
 * Absolutely. Go ahead! 16:26, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

Thanks. I will go see the video again to get more information. Marioguy (talk) 16:40, 13 July 2015 (EDT) Can you fix the misplacement since I am losing my battery. Marioguy (talk) 16:57, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

Toon Link same as Link???
Will scanning a Toon Link amiibo give you the Link design? I don't know since I don't have a Toon Link or Link amiibo. Marioguy (talk) 21:22, 13 July 2015 (EDT)
 * The game isn't out yet, and they haven't said anything, so we don't know yet. -- 22:06, 13 July 2015 (EDT)

I asked this due to someone saying (maybe guessing) that Toon Link is a compatible amiibo. Marioguy (talk) 09:56, 14 July 2015 (EDT)
 * It might be different, with Toon Link having a more cartoony design and more modern colors. 14:46, 14 July 2015 (EDT)

Toon Link looks like this --Lightdasher (talk) 14:39, 16 August 2015 (EDT)
 * So, as I suspected. Thanks for the info! 16:17, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

Can someone help the misplacement? Marioguy (talk) 21:01, 16 August 2015 (EDT)
 * Yeah, it's an easy fix. 21:04, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

Donkey Kong
Since they revealed more costumes, I just saw DK's 8-bit sprite from the Super Mario Maker's official website http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/amaj/index.html.



Can I add this to the list? 04:58, 29 July 2015 (EDT)


 * Go for it! There's no need to ask; It's from the official website after all.

At least 90 costumes by amiibo
On this website http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/06/super_mario_maker_will_allow_you_to_unlock_amiibo_mystery_suits_for_figures_you_dont_own. It imply that mostly all amiibo can unlock a new costume, you can even collected a new costume if you don't have this amiibo. If you play a user-created level with a special costume (eg: Wii Fit Trainer) you unlock that costume.-- 11:16, 29 July 2015 (EDT) I saw a video that says it has 99. Marioguy (talk) 10:33, 31 July 2015 (EDT)

2 Isabelles
The isabelle on here isn't really confirmed to be #69 but the one in the winter outfit is http://i.imgur.com/XCGgu45.jpg

I can't edit the page too much as I'm new, so hopefully some veterans around here can make the required changes. --Lightdasher (talk) 14:19, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

Rosalina
Offscreen footage found --Lightdasher (talk) 14:39, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

Tingle amiibo?
Maybe some of you already know the rumor of a pixel Tingle appearance in Mario Maker, and I think I found the source: https://miiverse.nintendo.net/replies/AYQHAAABAAAtVHhnYPBmvw

Should we add Tingle to this page or not?

02:59, 17 August 2015 (EDT)
 * yes 05:04, 17 August 2015 (EDT)

New Numbering?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yucMTxXnyN0

With a new video out, the Wii Fit Trainer has a different number than in the E3 footage, which almost makes it seem random. Which I would say if the Mario characters didn't occupy very proximal numbers. My guess is that there were some revisions of the game, and the WFT having the number 59 seems to be a beta element.

Edit: The Wii Fit Trainer's true number is 66. WFT and Isabelle probably should be de-numbered until we find out the numbers in the retail version. Auranin (talk) 14:30, 18 August 2015 (EDT)

Abdallah Smash's stream
I was watching Abdallah's stream, and when he went into the "amiibo Cosplay" level when doing the 100-Mario Challenge, I saw Mario Modern Colors, Villager, Pikachu, and more. I forget the link, so if someone can find it, please find & add. Super Mario User (talk) 14:59, 18 August 2015 (EDT)

Waluigi?
As much as I would love to see my favourite plumber in the game, there is no source, picture or note for Waluigi. Should he be kept on the table? 12:58, 19 August 2015 (EDT)

I've noticed DK jr. but no source just to add. Marioguy (talk) 16:16, 19 August 2015 (EDT)

Here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKGGej6lbxg Marioguy (talk) 16:23, 19 August 2015 (EDT)


 * Well, that just made my day. I'll put the ref down if it isn't already there. 03:02, 20 August 2015 (EDT)

Woolly Yoshi
Woolly Yoshi is a separate costume from regular Yoshi, as seen at 9:23 in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXXbkFWJWaU&feature=share Added a new row for him, but I don't have permission to upload images. Can someone else add the image? DoctorDiablo 12:02, 21 August 2015 (EDT)
 * Well, you could just reuse the same image that the regular Yoshi uses, since the sprite appears to be the same. The only difference is sound effects.--
 * Actually, Woolly Yoshi has a chequered pattern. I checked. (geddit? checked?) 04:32, 23 August 2015 (EDT)

Duck Hunt Dog
Some guy on miiverse posted a pic of Duck Hunt Dog in Super Mario Maker. I uploaded it to my photobucket before it got removed (it still hasn't).



Can someone add it for me?

All those references
When the game comes out, could we change all the references confirming mystery suits to only one that shows a list of mystery costumes or just delete all of them? We're now at 27 references (maybe even more later...) and only 4 has nothing to do with the list... --Metalex123 (talk) 19:40, 22 August 2015 (EDT)

Sprites.
I am currently working on uploading all of the sprites in clear, transparent forms for Costume Mario. No edit sniping please. 04:31, 23 August 2015 (EDT)


 * I'm fine with you trying to recreate them, but I'm here to say that Sonic's Mystery Suit is not exactly his original appearance in Sonic 1. It is in fact a bit shorter, so it can fit Mario's sprite. Here is the Sonic Mystery Suit in comparison to Sonic in the original game. 13:58, 23 August 2015 (EDT)


 * Oh, okay. I'll change that tommorow (British time for me). The sprites are pretty hard to do if it's based on a screenshot, which is why I thought it would be easier to get it from a sprite sheet instead of just redoing what I thought was the same sprite. Thanks for letting me know. 15:18, 23 August 2015 (EDT)

Why are Mario and Luigi the only big ones, shouldn't they all be the same size? FlamingJumpCat (talk) 20:54, 26 August 2015 (EDT)
 * They're probably a leftover or editor oversight. I've resized them. Either way, don't be afraid to make the changes next time, what's the worst that can happen? 21:29, 26 August 2015 (EDT)
 * It seemed that someone intentionally wanted them bigger, as it was a user who edited them (http://www.mariowiki.com/File:ModernMarioSMM.PNG and http://www.mariowiki.com/File:SMM_Luigi_Costume.png). I reverted them back but it was reverted back again to the larger size, so I was confused... Anyways, thanks for fixing it! FlamingJumpCat (talk) 00:15, 27 August 2015 (EDT)


 * All the large ones are on my watchlist, so I'll revert them with a proper explanation and message the user. 02:12, 27 August 2015 (EDT)
 * There's no need to keep them at a smaller size. As long as you keep the image parameter at a fixed size (e.g. ModernMarioSMM.PNG] in the table, resizing it won't screw up the table. And if any reason it does, just input another value, like 60px. 14:39, 31 August 2015 (EDT)

That Bowser Jr. is missing a pixel in it's mouth, yo! Pretty sure the eyes are more squinted as well. I tried to do what I described > FlamingJumpCat (talk) 20:48, 28 August 2015 (EDT)
 * Well, the sprite itself is inaccurate. There seems to be a black spot near Bowser Jr.'s neck as well. Why can't wait until we get game rips before we jump the gun and make inaccurate sprites? 14:39, 31 August 2015 (EDT)
 * The black spot? That's the background. Besides, they're the best we've got, so until we get game rips (and when that happens I will replace all of them) then it would be best just to continue making good quality, even if it isn't pixel perfect, sprites. 04:04, 2 September 2015 (EDT)
 * I see, it's a transparency smudge. Anyhow, why not wait until the game gets ripped? Because it's now apparent that these are fan-made renditions and I'm confused as to which sprite is a fan rendition or directly from the files. Final note: Fan-made renditions are frowned (see revision summaries) upon. 21:51, 2 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Oop, never mind. BJ's spot is legit. Ah well. I downloaded the video below before it was pulled, so I might check some things. Wait until ripping it is... 12:04, 3 September 2015 (EDT)

Roy and Ryu
Since all smash amiibo are compatible (except the Mii Fighters) with super mario maker will the roy and ryu amiibo be compatible as well? 178.167.254.235 17:03, 4 September 2015 (EDT)


 * Maybe down the road, but I never saw them on that video showing all the costumes so perhaps they'll be added later. Can't say for sure though.

Also i wonder if the order of the costumes in the video the correct order and the order we listed them in is incorrect. 178.167.254.206 12:41, 8 September 2015 (EDT)

Early Releases
People have started to get the retail game early, so if you happen to have it and/or know someone that does, it can be a help with ripping the costume sprites. 22:49, 8 September 2015 (EDT)


 * I think that it only happens if the player has a large YouTube audience and/or media audience, e.g. Gamexplain or IGN. I doubt that the guys from the spriter's resource both have a press release copy and an account here.


 * (The Spriter's Resource is a website full of game ripped sprites.) 02:03, 9 September 2015 (EDT)


 * Naw, People have actually gotten the game early, some stores are selling them. I was just asking for people in here that have the game and can rip sprites. 16:59, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * They probably will rip the sprites very soon. There's no point in uploading fan-made renditions when the release is so close here. 16:16, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Yeah, now's a good time to remove them if any 16:59, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * I'll simply revert the images until we get a ripped version, all right? 17:04, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Yup, sounds good, just 4 hours left! (I am just now seeing how bad my signature quality is, I'll need to change that soon) 20:38, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Even IF they have review copies, I highly doubt Nintendo will allow them to upload sprites pre-release date. Something like this happened when they ripped Pokemon sprites, where Nintendo directly asked them to not upload Pokemon sprites until the NA release date or something. 20:41, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Oh yeah no, I was talking about copies that were accidentally sold by retails like Target, not review copies. I'm sure Nintendo has a lot of control over those. 23:10, 10 September 2015 (EDT)

HOLD IT!
"Necky the Fox"...a DLC costume? I find that incredibly hard to believe. How do we know those images aren't faked? Lest we forget, Famitsu has been known to make stuff up from time to time... The chortles have returned. -Fawful117 (talk) 20:02, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * It's real 20:39, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * How can we know for sure it's not fake? That those images aren't just photoshopped? Need I remind you, they HAVE faked stuff before. The chortles have returned. -Fawful117 (talk) 22:11, 10 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Major video game outlets are covering it, and unless they say it's fake, it's not fake. 22:27, 10 September 2015 (EDT)

Why are all the images of lower quality?
Who's been reverted the quality of the costume Mario images and why? There's not reason really. They were great quality! Apparently a user by the name of "BabyLuigi" has been doing this but I can't really find a way to contact this person. Could someone help me find out what's going on? 20:40, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
 * There is a reason and a good one: the "high" quality sprites are unofficial fan-made renditions, which mislead our readers and damage our wiki's credibility due to this. I've noticed this because some renditions have inaccurate details, a major red flag. Even if the structure of the sprite resembles exactly as the game, the color palette will likely be off. We should wait until a rip is available before we use better quality sprites. 20:44, 11 September 2015 (EDT)

Oh, I wasn't aware. My apologies. 21:55, 11 September 2015 (EDT)

All sprites have been uploaded! Enjoy.

Done! I might change some of them to the poses if they represent the character better. 12:35, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * See? See what I told you? It pays to wait so we don't have to go through millions of revisions. 14:02, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Shouldn't we make the sprites bigger? 15:32, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Personally, I think that we should. Right now, you can barely see them. 16:00, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * I say we shouldn't because we don't increase the size of the sprites in Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, or Mario vs. Donkey Kong? We can take the Donkey Kong (Game Boy) route, though, and increase the size to 32 px, but I prefer if the sprites were at native resolution. 16:05, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * I prefer it that way too, but, really, 100px is far too big for an 8-bit sprite. The sprite is vanilla resolution, we don't need to increase its size. 16:13, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * The problem I had with them was that there are some sprites where we can't tell what's sprite and what's background, take Robin or CHibi-Robo for example. 19:02, 13 September 2015 (EDT)
 * I could tell. 19:20, 13 September 2015 (EDT)

Someone uploaded all the costume sounds.
http://www.sounds-resource.com/wii_u/supermariomaker/sound/4826/ We could use this for the costume list. Something like [Name] | [Image] | [Jump] | [Special] | [Death] ect.

Proposal: Costume Mario Sprites- accurate or visible?
Well then. There has been a bit of a disagreement on whether or not we should resize the sprites in the Mystery Suits table, even resulting in a borderline edit war (no fingers pointed at anyone). The advantages of not resizing the sprites is that they are more accurate and consistent to, say, Super Mario Bros.. However, I can say that I can barely see them in their current size, especially with good old Necky towering over them all. Right now, I would rather resize them slightly, but I'm going to wait to see what you guys think first.

Proposer: Deadline: September 28, 2015, 23:59 GMT

Small!

 * 1) I have trouble with my vision (it's about -5.00 in my left eye, which is unable to read the large E in eye exams, to get the idea of how bad my vision actually is; my right eye has refractive amblyopia on the other hand.) and I can see the sprites perfectly fine. Also, what size do you want them to be? I'll oppose 100px size sprites, simply because they're too huge for small sprites. The reason we leave them this size is the same reason we don't artificially increase the size of 8-bit screenshots or sprites in the wiki; it's because it's not the actual size of the image. We shrink images in order for them not only to actually display them in the page, but to lower the loading times as well. What does making it large does? The main issue with these sprites is not because of their size, but their relatively low contrast they have to the background compared to other sprites, due to a lack of a black outline, like any 8-bit sprite, not because they're small. We don't enlarge any other sprite in this wiki when we display them on their respective pages, neither should we make them large because people can't "see" them.
 * 2) Big = Blurry. Blurry = Bad.
 * 3) I've been strongly supporting keeping them at native sizes in the comments around here, so per those and the ugly infant who voted.

Big!

 * 1) As I said in the previous discussion, he problem I had with them was that some sprites are barely noticable,Chibi-Robo for example. And I understand that the wiki is meant to be the most reliable native source, but it should also be where people go if they want to clearly see the sprites in all their glory, and not have to zoom in to have a blurry picture or put the sprites in a editor and make them bigger, so I propose to give them an approximate 42px code: Example http://imgur.com/EuCBUeH  13:33, 14 September 2015 (EDT)

Comments
I think going big is the obvious choice here. The placement and colors of the pixels is still accurate, the actual sprite is the same, but we can actually see it. Look at Nintendo when they presented Mario Maker Costumes- They made them a few times larger for visibility. Here's what I present: Make it 2x or 3x larger, leave the transparent background, and call it a day. Upscaling the sprites doesn't make them less official or accurate. 76.231.86.37 04:38, 14 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Just because they do it doesn't mean we should. We don't enlarge any other sprite in this wiki, save for gallery pages, neither should we enlarge sprites here. People might think upscaling this equals higher quality when it's actually less useful than leaving the sprite the way it is. I can still see the sprite, mind you, and I'M the one with bad vision around here. 14:40, 14 September 2015 (EDT)

Baby Luigi: The sprites are slightly enlarged in the Donkey Kong (Game Boy) article, but the norm is to leave sprites at native sizes such as in Super Mario Bros., Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros. 2, Wario Land 4, Donkey Kong Land, and Famicom Grand Prix II: 3D Hot Rally. 14:37, 14 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Then the sprites should be left at their normal size. It's literally only one game compared to the rest of the times the sprites were ---ing used in this wiki. Where's the consistency? 14:40, 14 September 2015 (EDT)
