NTA but there's all sorts of ways colors can get messed up when it comes to old scans. Recently it was discovered that the Gen 1/2 Pokemon art circulating online had very off colors
Granted arguing over NES palettes is pointless for reasons >>10085270 said. If you're playing on real hardware you're just gonna use whatever your TV spits out. If you're RGB modding/emulating then "developer's intent" has gone out the window anyway and you should pick what you think looks best for each game. If you must feel "correct" then the most objective answer would be the RGB PPU, as that was what Nintendo consistently used for RGB screens back in the 80s and makes the SMB1 sky purplish like Miyamoto said, indicating Nintendo probably used that to make their games. But that's not a popular option which speaks to how this is just people using "authenticity" or whatever to justify their personal taste.
