Anyway i really love this kind of simple mech designs!

In fact, Twinbee's design didn't get fully realized until a year after DA! with Detana!! Twinbee, which redesigned his arcade-design from the groundup to be more anthropomorphic and feature teenager pilots - who Japanese would come to love fondly during the series' golden era.

However, back during the release of Parodius DA!, Twinbee-series was still in early legs and experimented with the series on NES via two games - hence why Twinbee's design seemed to get inconsistent as a whole (See Stinger and Japan-only Twinbee 3)

Actually it's not that intentional, but the reasons for it is even more stranger:

- The artist drawing Twinbee as the "Rocket Shite" you're referring to is actually taken from how Twinbee was portrayed on artworks of Parodius DA (hence featured on this Kelloggs-card)

ツインビーPARADISEよりパステルアイコン。
元絵はボンバーガールのやつですかね。
作業BGMは、
「風に誘われて(Pop'nツインビーSTAGE1)」
「Twin memories」「二人は冒険者」「私が天使だったらいいのに」
思いの外、コナミヒロインキャラが増えてきたような気も。

I never talk about it but Shmups are honestly one of my favorite genres. I think they’re a lot of fun.

So... when will Twinbee & Winbee get into Smash?
