2D Sprites are still two dimensional images that are integrated into a larger scene and change quickly to different poses to give the impression of movement. Sprites looks like small, still images that act as characters or objects within a video game. Popular games that used 2D sprites are games such as street fighter and mario.
3D sprites are similar to 2D sprites in that they are still images that change quickly to give an impression of movement. 3D sprites are still essentially two dimensional, but through using lighting and shade it gives an impression of depth which then looks essentially 3D.They would imitate the look of 3D when consoles couldnt use actuall 3D models. Mario also used these.
