Thank you for your expertise! Retro systems are a hobby of mine as well, though clearly I don’t have as much experience with it as you.

Agreed on all counts except the yellow: AFAIK 0x37 is usually a pale whitish-orange [0]. Is it possible you were looking one of the PlayChoice palettes on that page? I know I’ve done that more times than I care to admit...

And you’re right about gen3 consoles being fairly similar. I am not very familiar with that generation besides the NES, so for some reason my mind was going to a bunch of gen2 consoles and home computers as comparison points.

Re PlayChoice: yes you are right. Good spot and apologies for that mistake!
