Normally I like to address issues with updates, but there are quite a few things to say so I'll give an update with just the tweaks and layout change.

Well...When drawing Excitebiker, I used a real-life motocross rider as a pose reference. But Excitebiker had a more upright pose, so I'll change the sprite for the sake of accuracy. I'll make a tweak or two to Devil.
Done! I wanted to give him a dopey look but I suppose you're right.
Both the Duck Hunt duck and Little Mac have black in their designs. And when drawing NES sprites, I like to use dark shades as a substitute for black so that they don't blend into backgrounds. Personally, I prefer the green-blue-yellow duck because all of those colors are adjacent on the color wheel, while blue-magenta-yellow can create some eyeburn.
Well...I originally wanted to have 1989 as the cutoff date, but that would mean excluding Kirby, so I decided to accept any 1st-party character on the NES. I went ahead and ordered all of the characters by their release date, so the viewer can decide what cutoff date they want for themselves. Was SSBD released in 1989? Only include Ninten and all the characters to the left!
As for Mach Rider...yeah. He should be a bit taller. Thanks for the feedback!

a couple of things on the devil is that I feel the eyes should take up a little more space on the head and the horns should be a little more straight up

My palette edit for the duck. I don't know why you have its palette shared with Little Mac. The duck doesn't even have green.

When I saw you wanted games from 1989 and prior, I didn't suggested him based on that. With that said, I'm surprised Marth hasn't made an appearance yet. His game came out in Japan in Spring 1990, before Mike Jone's game did near the end of 1990. (StarTropic didn't even make it to Japan, I think.)
