Line 43:
* ''[[Urban Champion]]'' involves two identical boys beating each other up.
* Every ''[[Street Fighter]]'' installment since ''Champion Edition'' allowed both players to use the same character by distinguishing one player with an alternate color scheme. ''Super Street Fighter II'', the fourth ''[[Street Fighter II]]'' game, actually has eight palettes for each character, allowing all eight players in the Tournament Battle mode to use the same character. The ''[[Street Fighter IV]]'' series kept the tradition, even though each character has an alternate outfit or two.
* ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'', the interesting part is that the alt colors make sense if you've played the other FF games or are otherwise a ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' nerd--some of the alts are based on original concept art of the character that didn't make the final cut for the original game ([[Final Fantasy IV|Cecil]], [[Final Fantasy II (Video Game)|Firion, The Emperor]]), some are versions of the character as they appeared in their actual game, their default Dissidia design having changed that (Golbez, [[Final Fantasy X|Tidus]], [[Final Fantasy VI|Terra]]), and others make references more complicated than that (''[[Final Fantasy III]]'' was originally a game of four [[AFGNCAAP]] [[Heroic Mime|Heroic Mimes]], while the remake did away with that and gave the characters all personalities, back stories, unique appearances, and [[Canon Name|names]]; Dissidia references this by basing the FFIII representative on the Onion Knight of the original game, while having his alt look like Luneth, the "hero" of the remake). And yet others are outfits the characters actually wore ([[Final Fantasy VII|Cloud's]] [[Advent Children|AC]] outfit or [[Final Fantasy VIII|Squall's]] Seed Uniform). And others are a referance to OTHER characters (Ultimecia and Jecht).
* ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'' used mainly shading variations (likely since Sub Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, Ermac, Human Smoke, Rain, Noob Saibot, and Chameleon were already [[Palette Swap|palette swaps]] at various points).
** Also, the women, Mileena, Kitana, Jade, and the often forgotten Khameleon.
