Much better, IMO. With the colours, the darker shades could use hue-shifting, which, in the case of shading, is changing the hue (colour) in between shades. For example, having a red, a lighter red with a slightly more orange hue, and a darker red with a slightly more purple hue - Darker shades are generally shifted towards blue, and lighter to yellow (I think).

I find this sprite's blue to be too saturated and it's a nuisance to look at, tone down on the saturation a little.
the leg placement is also unnaturally stiff and looks very short, but i think that's the side-effect of making a SNES-styled sprite.
Another optional thing you can do is to optimize your palette! The yellow on the buttons only appears there, so it feels a little wasteful (no offense)
I think you could change their colors ro Mario's skin tone or white without loss in definition. As you're making sprites, efficiency is key.

Does it look good? I tried experimenting with hue-shifting as you said but orange and purple are exactly the colors I have most problem with, so I don't know if I'm not actually making Mario's clothes look like an orange and purple fashion abomination.

Same with the glove outline, I tried to change it to one of the skin colors once but it didn't look too good.

Not too sure about this one.
