[Marioro]

"Geometric minimalism looks good, right? RIGHT? It's what all the modern Western cartoons are doing!"

Always amused me how they'd use the Dic Zelda design for various promotional stuff at the time.

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Link looks even more androgynous than usual...and this was before "at all" became the norm for him.

 

[Nyorori]

DK flat out never made it on the CD-I at all, dodged a coconut shell

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

JhoShi!!

 

[Ten]

It's beautiful.

 

[Koops]

It's cute

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Back to the CDi thing, I just realized it looks like they used his Saturday Supercade render of all things for reference.

That made me want to eat my own **** instead of seeing it.

 

[Ten]

Luigi's head is the best part of the image.

 

[Nyorori]

I think the fact they only got Waluigi's eyebrow makes this better

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Oh but this might be an individual effort. I wouldn't go hard on this. It's not 100% horrifying unlike the balloon stuff either.

 

[Marioro]

True, but Peach's (O_O) face is amazing.

 

[zel]

yea mario and luigi look mostly fine (even a lil cute) but. Yoshi
peach feels like a shrek parody i dont even know how she does but she does

 

[Doc von Schmeltwick]

Peach has just hit her middle ages, don't be too hard on her.

"Oh well at least they're unique and not Toads"

You know what else is unique and not Toad? A pile of barf being its own character.

This design is just awful, there's no indication of the bare minimum of thought put into it. "It's an alien". Yeah, no, that's not an excuse for trotting out this crap that has nothing to do with Paper or Mario or being Super. You can do better with "weird alien from Paper Mario", especially when the rest of the game is already geometrical and weird. You can love Super Paper Mario, but c'mon you know they can do better than that.

 

[Marioro]

What on earth is that and how is its neck not breaking. It's like a chopstick holding a potato.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

It's a wildly deformed Pianta whose skirt mutated into an extra eyeball.

it's a Blobule aka idgaf about character design how am i getting paid
