I've had a NGPC since the day it came out in the states but there's one thing that has always bothered the HELL out of me...the 2-3 color character sprites. Why did SNK do this? Every fighter has a max of 2 colors +black...I've always found it awfully lame since the GG (released 6 years before) could easily do multiple colored sprites. The pallete is there too if you look at the backgrounds...so does anyone know why SNK chose this route?

not exactly sure but I think it more had to do with them just upgrading the B&W unit to color (not really any real changes to the hw in the color system).

Also I believe the limit is 4 colors (which follows closly to the gbc limit).
