Wow, "family black sheep" is right - he doesn't even have an Italian name! XD I'd have gone for "Pedro", myself - but Dave works. All in all, funny concept. =P Wow, I just noticed my writing style - two sentences separated by a dash and followed with a smilie. XP

Ooh, now THAT'S pretty. The house doesn't quite touch the ground in the back, but I guess that's OK for a mushroom house.

And instead of having a job trying to save the Mushroom Kingdom, Dave works for "Mushroom King" a popular fast food restaurant.

O.o HIS NAME SHOULD BE ALFREDO, IF ANYTHING.

Pedro is like the most generically Spanish name ever. His name clearly needs to be Giovanni.

Too much Pokemon ruins the name Giovanni for me.

No but see Pedro was intentional because people keep confusing Spaniards with Italians and... ah, never mind. It's Dave now, anyway. =P

Dave was not a very cute baby. I need to pick up the pace. The contest deadline is the 22nd! That's barely a week away! Edit: Now in Living Color

Are you gonna possibly have an 8-bit NES style version of Dave in there as well?
You could have it that Dave did have a few games made for such popular systems as the Virtual Boy, the CD-I, and the N-Gage.
Also, I've always pictured Mama Mario as being a bit fatter and wearing a blue dress, mostly due to an old issue of Cracked which had screen shots from a game called Mario vs the Mob or something like that.

Already made the version of her sprite I have on my HDD a bit wider (by about two pixels, which doesn't sound like much but looks like a lot ). As for colorscheme, I think I'll keep her the way she currently is; if only because orange lets me use more colors (I get to re-use the shades of brown on her face) while still staying in a relatively SNES-esque color limit.

blazefire.mooglecavern.com/davepreview.aviTook me two days to do that. Does the joke work? One of my biggest fears is that I'm not funny, which is why I usually try to never consciously be funny. "Funny on demand" is something I never thought I was good at. What about technical-wise? Anything about that bug you? I have to animate everything at 2x size so it's not this tiny little sprite, and actually making them lean over and take a bite would take forever (at least another day).

It's cute. Dave's sneeze needs to be louder though.
