A Minor Question on R.O.B.'s Color Schemes and Localization...

[Game&Watcher]

If someone's playing a Japanese copy of the game, playing as R.O.B. with the JPN default palette swap, will it show in an American copy?

I believe one of ROB's US costumes is his Japanese default

I know, but if someone's playing a Japanese copy with its version's default costume, and playing with someone with a US copy, would it show the U.S. Default R.O.B. or the JPN Default R.O.B.?

It will show up normally as if they'd chosen the alternate costume, so it'd show the US ROB

So if someone playing a Japanese copy is playing as their Default ROB, it'll show on a US copy of the game... Thanks, I was curious.

Can you clarify? You did not make it clear whether the scheme changes between the Japanese version and the American version.

Like, is the default JP color scheme for ROB the Famicom design or is it the NES design like in the US version?

I mean, If a Japanese Copy of the game is playing against an American copy, if the Japanese user uses R.O.B. in his Japanese default color scheme, will it show him in the US default or the JPN default on the American user's copy?

It just shows whatever color they're using. So if a JP player is using the red-armed ROB it'll show that for US players, same if they were using the green or blue ROBs, it'd show those. The only thing different is that the default/first alt color for ROB in JP is the red-armed one and the US ROB is the grey-armed one.

Default in Japan is Famciom colour.
Default in the west is NES colour.

Thanks, just needed to fill my curiosity.
