What is snes color palette?

The SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System) has a color palette of 32,768 possible colors. This palette has 15-bit RGB values, which means that each color is made up of 5 bits each for red, green, and blue.

The SNES can display up to 256 colors on screen at once, chosen from its full palette. However, some games may use fewer colors due to hardware limitations or stylistic choices.

The SNES also had a special mode called Mode 7, which allowed the console to rotate and scale background layers. This mode used a reduced color palette of 128 colors, but allowed for smoother animations and the creation of 3D-like effects.

Overall, the SNES color palette provided a wide range of colors for game developers to create rich and vibrant visuals, even with the hardware limitations of the time.
