Digitized Sprites	comment	When the sprite graphics in a Video Game are made by conversion of an image created externally (such as a photograph, CGI render, hand-drawn artwork, video feed, etc.) into a sprite, as opposed to the Pixel Art methods typically associated with the creation of videogame sprites. This can actually save a lot of time and effort in the production cycle, but the results are often not as pleasing (particularly when photography is used). This was popular in the The '90s (The 16 Bit Era Of Console Video Games) before processing power and tech prices could make Polygonal Graphics practical for home computers and video game consoles. The process could actually make more detailed graphics than many of the early polygon-capable game systems since it was taking more advanced CGI and converting it to 2D images. Also, if a photo is used, it could be anything from Real Life pictures, to actors, to Stop Motion (e.g. Claymation models). Compare Sprite/Polygon Mix (and can overlap if the sprites or bitmaps are also digitized). Also compare Pre-Rendered Graphics.

Digitized Sprites / int_db501140	comment	Kirby's Dream Land 3 also used the Yoshi's Island technique, where its sprites were drawn in pastels first before they were digitally scanned to be inserted into the game. The style is so thorough that the whole game looks like a chalk drawing, even the menu screens. Some of the original drawings were showcased in the booklet included with Kirby's Dream Collection.

Digitized Sprites / int_e483f251	comment	The first Dark Forces game was populated using these. It's easy to tell what's rotoscoped, what's hand-drawn, and what's a digitized render by the light levels of the sprites. Sprites with minimal lighting like those of the Dianoga and Gammorean Guard are drawn, moderately shaded human enemy sprites are rotoscoped, and the highly shiny droid enemy sprites are taken from renders.

Digitized Sprites / int_e5d5561c	comment	Some of the monsters from DOOM and DOOM 2 were first created as clay, 3D, or latex models which were photographed and then rendered into sprites. In mods, it's common to see weapons from modern 3D games imported into Doom via the same technique. Likewise with Duke Nukem 3D and Shadow Warrior.

Digitized Sprites / int_ed113c02	comment	Saints Row IV has the mission Saints of Rage, where The President goes into a 16-bit side-scroller to rescue Johnny Gat. However this is actually an Inverted Trope, as technically the game is still in 3D (and given massive filter to make it look blurry, choppy, and low quality) as your customized protagonist appeared with your currently equipped outfit in the mission, just having a large Genre Shift just for the one mission alone. It's all, naturally, Lampshaded, and comes complete with choppy sound bites and nonsensical food healing items.
