Talk:List of 16-bit computer color palettes

Atari ST
Just a small thing, but worth including the STe in the ST section? (Same standard palette size, given that we're not discussing capabilities granted by programming tweaks e.g. Spectrum 512 or Photochrome, but with a 4096-entry lookup). The illustrative pictures could be copied verbatim from the 4- and 16-colour (2- and 4- bitplane) Amiga entries as it gives exactly the same result.


 * Only standard hardware palettes, no tweaks here (see disclaimer in the article's summary). Images for 4- and 16-color Amiga and ST not the same: Atari ST has 8 levels per RGB channel, while Amiga has 32 levels per channel. But output is almost identical, visually.

Texas Instruments TI-99/4(A)
This page should have a section available for the color palette of the Texas Instruments TI-99/4 line, as it uses the TMS-9918A video display processor also used in the MSX. Even the Tomy Tutor shares the same VDP chip. WikiPro1981X (talk) 15:55, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Incorrect images
See here: List_of_16-bit_computer_hardware_palettes I looked back on archive.org and they always seem to have been like this. Mattsephton (talk) 23:27, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
 * The first two colour images for Atari ST seem to be MSX images, the third monochrome is indeed Atari ST hires.
 * There's also an AppleIIgs image in the Amiga section.


 * As we say here, sofixit. So I've boldly removed the 'wrong' images. ◦ Trey Maturin 15:37, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

Can 32-bit section be on this page?
Can 32-bit section be on this page?
 * Yes, because the lead section says "Due to mixed-bit architectures, the n-bit distinction is not always a strict categorization." — BZAW31559 (talk) 03:38, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Wrong name, moving the page: List of 16-bit computer hardware palettes → List of 16-bit computer hardware graphics; change “palettes” to “graphics” in the wording after “computer hardware”.

Report false positives; I moved the page from List of 16-bit computer hardware palettes to List of 16-bit computer hardware graphics by changing „palettes“ to „graphics“ wording.

Abandoned user draft
Please would an interested editor assess the tables added at the (blocked) user page User:BZAW31559/List of 16-bit computer hardware graphics, incorporate anything useful, blank the remaining page content as WP:FAKEARTICLE, and leave a note here when done? – Fayenatic  L ondon 20:37, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
