@Doc I know there's art of Mappy's wife, I'm saying I don't think there's any for the P2 character specifically so it's hard to really say if they look alike or not (apart from the outfit). It's only a 16x16 sprite so being a little taller and thinner doesn't mean much either - look at old Luigi sprites for example.
That said I agree it probably isn't her, especially with the best source for the name being (seemingly) a fansite anyway.

@DigitalDiamal Yup, what Doc said. Nobody's debating "Morvin" anymore, we're just trying to figure out the character's actual name/identity if any.

@DigitalDiamal I think you're missing the point. There's no way that this is the same character as the Mappy-Land character, which either means that "Mapiko" is not the name of the Arrangement character, or there are two characters named Mapiko.

@P-P Shouldn't this end by now? I already confirmed that Morvin is a fan name I created, and if you're wondering where's Mapico's official artworks check this vg artwork extraction blog: http://videogameartarchive.com/post/159122590067/artwork-of-mappy-and-his-kids-from-mappy-land http://videogameartarchive.com/post/159127591403/in-bandainamcouss-mappy-land-mappy-must-search

There's art of the Mappy-Land character, who is additionally tall and thin. The Mappy Arrangement character is a recolor with some extra redrawing to give shades.

@Doc Can you really say that for sure though? There doesn't seem to be any art of them beyond the sprites, could very well be the same Mapico but wearing uniform and shades. Giving the same name to two different characters would be weird as well, especially in such a small franchise.
(Is that website even official in the first place though? I can't find any other source for the name so keeping it as current might be best anyhow.)

@P-P It couldn't be the same character, they look nothing the same and only one seems to be female.

@Sonicfan32 Correct, Morvin is actually a fan name I created for the Player 2 character in Mappy Arrangement. It seems like Brian Fan used my fan name here, as I mentioned it in a spritesheet.

I've revised the spritesheet name to "2-Player (Mappy-Arcade Style)" I'm surprised someone thought the fan name I created was official...

@Doc You're not wrong per se, but "Mapico" is actually the official romanization. (Assuming they're meant to be the same character.)

It's in Japanese, so a proper romanization would be "Mapiko."

According to this article, Mapico is also applied to this "Mappy Arangement" character as well. So it should be changed to Mapico.

@Adam "Mapiko" is Mappy's wife's name.

His real name is actually "Mapiko"

•Who's "Morvin?"

Your cousin? Morvin Berry?

He's the second player character from Mappy Arrangement. I believe Morvin is just a fanmade name.
