Look at it! Look at it! LOOK AT IT!

I think that distinction goes to our Mario Kart Wii

 
Supper Mario Broth is back last week, so we have some catching up to do:

While the image below isn't what I would call "ugly", I will post it here since I can see why some people think so:

Thank you for reading.
 
Pinging Ultra Mario.

Also, I saw that Yoshi toy in the computer lab at school that I work in.
 
That looks like 3K's OC but in normal colors.

The guy who made that model does a little webseries ("A Day In The Life of Bowser Jr." or something like that).
It's less the model itself and more the artstyle. 2D art for that series looks very similar, if not exactly like that model.
Man, you guys should see Bowz, if you think that's off.
 
nothing too bad, but in mario kart, toad arms are super long

Eh I think that series visual quality improved a lot with the jump to 3D. Sure the model is off compared to Nintendo's official models but clearly the maker of this series wanted to make his own instead of using official models. I still loved most of these episodes and I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

Probably to make sure he can actually reach the steering wheel.
Kinda like how Bowser and DK are basically genies when using the smaller karts in Mario Kart DS.
 
The baby characters' arms are elongated too and have bigger hands

Their arms were elgonated in Mario Kart Wii as well but it's less noticeable because the model quality is poorer.

Their arms are longer than their legs.
 
Yeah, that had always been the case. Their structure is very similar to Toad's, who, mind you, has no legs at all.
 
I think it's a bit more obvious there for some reason.
Although, looking again, their legs are longer too, so that balances it out I guess.
 
I'm looking at stuff from the SMB Movie and, apparently, Koopa's transformation into a T-Rex was supposed to happen gradually over the movie rather than just at the end.
So we have pictures of these:

Also, some of the posters are really weird.

The good thing is I just woke up, otherwise no sleep would've been had by me.

I actually own one of those! Its saddle is a button. I think it plays the classic jingle from Yoshi's Story when you press it, though my memory is a little hazy since it stopped working years ago.
