Hey there, new guy. Been wanting to submit some sprites here for a while.
*hopes nobody's posted these before, tried to make sure beforehand* Sorry if someone already has.
The Hal Labs Ghostbusters 2 game.
*shrugs* didn't see sprites for this game, anywhere, so decided to go and get them. Hope this looks good. >.>;;

Those look cute. I'm not sure if they were submited, but they look good enough for me alright.

Maybe for copyright issues, Tom. Some actors don't allow their likeness in licensed products, like Jim Carrey and the Mask cartoon. Sometimes it can happen.

You know what's strange... a lot of older Ghostbusters games from the NES era usually didn't have Winston for whatever reason. This game not only has Winston, but Louis. Plus, you know, it was actually fun to play, a big step up from the other GB games on the NES.
I believe because those developers are damn racists.... That's the one reason that makes sense to me....
I wonder if anyone can make a genesis sprite of Winston for the Ghostbusters game on Sega Genesis? I was so upset as a kid that the genesis version didn't had Winston.. That's like playing a TMNT video game with only 3 ninja turtles.... T_T

Probably the lack of Winston was because since he was black, he would need an entire new sprite for himself and it was easier to simply reuse the same body of the other white guys and swap their heads to have all the Ghostbusters. (1 body base + 3 different heads= less work, bleh.)
The cellphone version DID had Winston, though.

Good to know that I wasn't submitting something already seen.
Thanks for the warm welcome as well. Hope to keep up the work on various games.
