Exactly.

His head needs to face the same direction as his body, or Ness just isn't going to feel right. He'll have to turn around for every attack that is supposed to go forward, which would just be weird. If you fight with your back to the enemy, you have a backfighting-style, primarily using your elbows, not baseball bats and psychic powers. Plus a pose like this could confuse the player as to which direction they're facing. I like the spriting, good job, but I really don't like it as his idle.

wow that was really hard

Maybe move the whole body (the torso and lower) a pixel over, thats just me though.

Much better. Shoulder needs to be rounded a bit more though.

I like that Ness.

His hands need to looks something like hands.

I liked Nin's Ness so I decided to do the idle for it :]
with and without shirt movement

Very nice. Should the hat move a bit too?

I don't know if I like the hands on his sides since Wario is already doing that.

Ness's idle does not look like in game, are we changing them?

They don't have to match up exactly. Though he does look like he's doing "I'm a little teapot." Maybe we can give him a more active stance?

Haha, give me a second to fix the arms.

Hey that looks swell.
