Actually I was thinking if we were going to have alt costumes then maybe we could make one card be the alt?

Could there be a simple way for the engine to automatically create cards whenever a character is entered into the Character Design section? (eg, if Runouw made a character, the engine would automatically simulate a card, or whatever.)

I guess so. I don't know much about AS3 but I hope it uses the same basics as AS2. So if the movieclip is created, a card is then put together by taking the objects in the library and placing them in certain places. Not sure if I'm right though.

Maybe for the Adventure Mode card while they are doing their attack they could have their alternate costumes on.

Yeah, it a little bit like that.
If I were to swap different different graphics in, it would probably take less than a minute.

Yeah, I was thinking something similar. I reckon for the final smash card, they should have their alternate on. But then, for characters that have final smashes where they aren't viewable.. that doesn't really work. So yes, I suppose the Adventure mode one would work best.

How about;

Default (PA)
Final Smash (gameplay scene)
Alternate Costume (PA)

Can't argue with that. So we are going to make the Pixel Art right?

The PA could probably be the same art as on the character select screen.

Oh man, I was hoping to see some fancy art on Mario Finale, with all flames around, it would be great.
...But I like the idea of having an animation (with the holographic anim, obviously) for the FS.

And we are going to use an PA or an sprite of the game for the others cards? (PA, plz)

I would prefer Pixel Art

Well the FS has a LOT more going into it. It seems like it we used a scene from gameplay it would be easier to showcase more of it.

Pixelarts would requires alot more time to make than sprites
I understand the playable characters having the select screen pixelart for the default and alt costumes cards but having every single card as pixelart is CRAZY. Who would sprite all of them?!

This. It would be ludicrous to say that every card should get the pixel art treatment. I think it would be fine to use the current sprites for the card art. Maybe pixel art can be used for rare cards?

I'll leave that up to whoever wants to do it. The main characters and costumes should be PAs though, I think.
