The Lospec Palette List is a database of palettes for pixel art.
We include both palettes that originate from old hardware that could only display a few colors, as well as palettes created by pixel artists specifically for making art.
My own twist on GrafxKid's Arcade Standard 29 Palette. Sadly his website seems to be down for a while, but he had those very nice examples of how to use his pallete. I've used it a lot in my current game (NIPH), and ended up changing quite a few colors (removing 3, the lighter purple got fused with the pink, and a few others...), making them all more saturated (the red specially was really lighter on the original one, but I wanted a more in your face, bright red).

If you are searching a 64 color palette, there's 94% chance this is the one for you. How can I be so sure? I'm not, but at the same time we'll never get the actual statistics, so I can as well be right until further investigations. Anyway seriously, do download this palette, it's the only thing I am proud of since the day I was born.

Palette examples. Note how the less saturated brown examples used for trees/sand can help boost colors around it. You can have similar desaturated cold lifeless metals, wood, etc to apply this affect in other cases. For best use avoid mixing the brown ramps as this is intended to be used for specific cases where you need more contrast. - by

A palette containing two color ramps, blue and red, which share their same brightest and darkest color (white and black). The colors were made to be flexible, so the blues can work as a bright green too, while the reds can also work as a saturated brown.
