I'm kind of surprised that Mega Man doesn't have any colors that reference other characters in the franchise like Zero did in Marvel vs Capcom 3. I'm also surprised that Pac-Man doesn't have a Ms. Pac-Man or Modern Pac-Man alt.
Meta Knight has a Galacta Knight and Dark Meta Knight scheme. Cool. And Dedede gets a black color that sort of resembles his Mirror self from Triple Deluxe.
Charizard appears to have a second purple color. I assume that's the "Ridley-inspired" color people were talking about.
Dark Kirby is definitely a "Maskless" Meta Knight scheme. I suppose they went with yellow eyes just to make it obvious to people unfamiliar with unmasked Meta Knight's designs.
Zelda seems to have palettes resembling her Ocarina self and her Wind Waker/Toon self. Also cool.
Just for curiosity's sake, can someone tell me what Robot Master/Weapon each of Mega Man's colors are supposed to represent, if any?

You know, I sometimes wonder how much they bother with these alts.
Like, you have stuff like Wireframe and Tracksuit Little Mac, but they are too bothered to change Meta Knight's mask to have a scar or a cross-shaped cut on it for Dark Meta Knight and Galacta Knight costumes.
Also, they seem to hate shiny Pokémon colours.
PS, Shulk's colours are based on the other Xenoblade party members.

Customer: Most of Mega Man's palettes have been for multiple weapons in different games. Off the top of my head I can say that the red one is probably the Rush Coil/Jet/Adapter/Whatever palette, green and white could be Wood Man(2), orange is probably Metal Man(2), light blue and white is probably Air Man(2), yellow and green is Slash Man(7), red and yellow is Sword Man(8), black and yellow is Elec Man(1) or Top Man(3).

Looking at it, Lucina has, in order, Nowi, Cherche, Cordelia, Tiki, Tharja, and Sumia.
...I can't tell who the "gold, white, and brown hair" is supposed to be. It looks familiar, but I can't place it.
Don't PM me. We don't like being PMed.Hair is the wrong shade of brown to be either, plus I don't think the rest of the colors are right.
I think it's a girl, whoever it is, since all her other palettes are female Awakening characters.
Don't PM me. We don't like being PMed.Sooo with 2-3 extra palette slots to work with and a much larger portion of the cast getting different skins altogether, Sonic is still casually left with little more than various other shades of blue.
...Though they did somehow manage to give Pac even less, so I guess it doesn't quite stand out as much this time around.

(SE not having a rep is kind of strange since they are one of the few third parties that still works with Nintendo a lot)
