For rew.'s NES Palette

Click here to return to the main page.

These screenshots were generated by NEStopia; if you see any oddities at the top and/or bottom, that's because NEStopia's screenshots ignore overscan clip settings, thus showing the top and bottom 8 pixels that are normally hidden on an NTSC television (and in most emulators).

I take it back: this is the palette that killed Battletoads's Ragnarok Canyon, and the battlefield in Battle Chess (though the battles could just all be taking place at sunset…). FCE Ultra's got nothing on this palette's browns…

Looking at the screenshots for Metroid, I'm almost convinced that this is the palette Nintendo used for the NES games on the The Legend of Zelda Collector's Edition disc (which had the first two Zelda games) and in Metroid Prime (which had the original Metroid as an unlockable).

"rew." was an interesting emulator: it was actually primarily an emulator for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, but it had the ability to play some NES games, and even some TurboGrafx-16 games!

It was also the first emulator I ever encountered that offered reverb for the sound channels, and the ability to mix the current and previous frame for smoother video.

Sadly, this emulator didn't support Color Emphasis. :(

Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt


Adventure Island II


Adventures of Lolo 2


Battle Chess


Super Mario Bros. 3


Adventures of Lolo 3

If the animation sticks, just wait a few seconds. It SHOULD restart. :)

Battletoads

This is my personal favorite line from Professor T. Bird.

Bucky O'Hare


Dragon Warrior


Metroid

If the animation sticks, just wait a few seconds. It SHOULD restart. :)

Dragon Warrior III


Legendary Wings

The last vertical-scrolling level uses $11 and $12 in a way that creates a really cool texture when playing the game on actual hardware and on a CRT TV. :D

The Legend of Zelda


Dragon Warrior IV


Zelda II: The Adventure of Link


Solstice: Quest for
the Staff of Demnos


Monster in My Pocket


Adventures of Tom Sawyer

The alligator boss at the end of the rafting level uses two greens ($19 and $1A) that, on my actual NES Control Deck, are
almost indistinguishable — but they do add a cool texture due to the composite artefacting! :D
Avoid the lighter ink blasts! The darker ones will ink you up, but the LIGHTER ones will INSTANTLY KILL YOU. To be honest, I never knew there even WERE two different colors until I really studied this game for screenshots.
