I can't imagine the decision process at Konami.
Iga: "But if it's higher than 320x240, then the SC4, Dracula X, and SotN sprites will have big outlines and stuff."
Konami: "That's why you make new sprites."

"
Konami: "uh yeah that's not really what i mea-"
Iga: "Alright lemme load up Legion in Paint. Okay, fill tool and pencil, this'll take 20 minutes, tops."
