Description

High resolution sprites of Chuck Quizmo, a wormy quiz show host (and the first non-Toad I've done in a while) from Paper Mario 64.

Throughout Mario's Star Spirit quest, the video game mascot can find the expert showman Chuck Quizmo hanging out in various towns. Mario can indulge Chuck Quizmo by answering a question about his quest so far, something Chuck Quizmo has to be keeping tabs on. For every right answer, Mario receives a Star Piece for use in buying badges. Then, like some kind of sorceror, Chuck Quizmo vanishes within his hat, followed by thin air.

While Chuck Quizmo hasn't returned in future Paper Mario games, Mario Party 8 has another worm showman named MC Ballyhoo as that game's host.

Originally, I was going to redesign Chuck Quizmo with features of Super Mario Odyssey's Bonneters (hat ghost people). However, I didn't feel right adding a reference from so far in the future to an N64 character. In the end, it was a simple remastering.
