Ripping Sprites from SNES Games
Load the ROM that contains the sprite you want to use.
Press the snapshot key. After disabling the background and sprite layers you don't need. You might be able to configure which key to use for taking snapshots.
Check the folder that contains your ROMs,and look for your snapshots. These are usually in PNG format.
Remove any backgrounds the sprite is on in Adobe Photoshop or another editing software.
Using Sprites from the Internet
Open your favorite web browser.
Then go to Google.
Type: "*insert name of sprite you want here" sprites" For example: Metroid Sprites. If you want full results, or you want sprites from a particular part in the game, type for example:"Metroid Zero Mission Sprites".
There should be about a few thousand links. Click on one, and look for sprites you want.
If you've found the sprite (Or sprite sheet) that you want, right click and select Copy.
Open an Image Editing Program and Paste your sprites in. Save them as GIFs or PNG (I highly suggest PNGs because they keep sprite quality and are smaller file sizes)
Save the sprites.
You have your first Ripped Sprites!
