I just stumbled upon this picture and realized... I've been seeing Agahnim (Zelda: A Link to the past) wrong all these years. I always thought he was some guy with a big mouth and a goofy haircut covering his eyes, and did not think much more about it... but nope, that's not what he is (I was not particularly old when I first played the game...)

Another one my younger self could not see the right way was the Peon from Warcraft 2 (but which adult me can see the correct way). Here's a small picture. Imagine the left tusk being a mouth, and the left ear being a green horn. That was what my young self thought it looked like (it made it look like some evil lizard thing rather than an unhappy orc).

Any sprites from older games and such that you got all wrong (or still get all wrong, despite knowing better?)

And of course, 3 small (and probably not very good) giveaways

Sorry, but I did not make that drawing, it was just something I found online.
