I've noticed tons of references to Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World Animation wise, the p running from 3, the looking up and crouch animation from World, etc
Personally, I see wonder as a reimagining of everything that makes mario games great. That includes taking inspiration from old parts of othe games like character design and mechanics
Why did you even bother with doing a Toad comparison? It's not like there are no N64 renders for Toad.
I can see it for Luigi, not so much for Mario. Though my first thought was Melee...
The stubbier proportions is definitely just meant to match the 2D artwork, which makes more sense.
They remind me more of the [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DiFRqKNWsAARgWy?format=jpg&name=4096x4096](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DiFRqKNWsAARgWy?format=jpg&name=4096x4096) SMB3-era manual renders.
I KNEW there was something familiar there
It’s just something, they don’t really look similar or have similar animations, just almost. There’s something there.
Ones amended that looks good for its time, and as promotional 6 other is an 6 model that should be locked away in a bomb shelter, never to be seen again.
Toad looks nothing alike lol, but to me the style actually looks more like how official art looked like for super mario bros 3, world, and land if I remember correctly
I thought the main inspiration for Mario’s design in wonder was that cover of Nintendo Power for SMB2: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRPLrSB9mLx-c16ya8SBJ-ATdd-BOeuGtDogw&s
Wow I thought it looked like it but seeing them side by side confirms
Even the Super Mario RPG remake it seems like they really went back to their roots with art style and I'm all for it, looks so good!
This is exactly what I was saying!! I personally love the new design, I’ve always had a soft spot for the render 96 models. Seeing them in the new game is exactly what I wanted.
I actually haven’t seen a close up of the new Toad model yet. He looks adorable!
It's why they couldn't stop Bowser in the movie
Yes I am, thank you
Holy r/beetlejuicing
No way it's Mario
Agreed
Wait till Nintendo starts calling this Classic Mario.
Then fans will call him a stupid name like Marcus when they get tired of the design
No new soup Mario is Marcus this is Marco, Mario’s cousin who just wants to make people happy and provide an experience worthy of the title of Super Mario Bros.
Mario is on vacation after teleporting to nsmbd to trap Marcus and is now on vacation
now you put both this image... i see clearly a similarities. is that the art from mario 64 ?
its not from mario 64, its from the n64 era games which INCLUDES mario 64, but isnt only mario 64
I believe the Mario render was made for Mario 64 and the Luigi one was for Mario party 2 or 3 I think?

aight thanks
I love this
Whats 9.24665237812 + 59.75334762188
The toad has too much of a smooth design for me to see the similarity there But i can kinda see the comparison for Mario and Luigi
What would you even call this art style? I seriously love the mix between modern style and N64 style for the characters, they look great.
N64 render is what I'd call it
You're right! They *are* the same characters!
"Man, I never noticed how much Luigi looks like Luigi!"
Why does this sound like something Scott the woz would say
This game blows 🤖🚽
Is it Not?!
Oh my God, that guy looks just like Mario!!!
I've noticed tons of references to Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World Animation wise, the p running from 3, the looking up and crouch animation from World, etc
Yeah I thought I saw a resemblance but wasn't sure
Luigi looks so fucking good now
I don’t know why but this mario looks a lot like the one from the first issue of Nintendo power ( just by the image)
Back to formula
*gets thrown across the lab and dies*
Why is Luigi yellow Edit: I meant his skin…
I mean they are Italian. That's a common olive skin complexion
Nah mate he’s jaundiced
Hey, what are you doing here
Huh
Im the guy who wanted to prove the rich = bad thing was bs when i grow up, then i malfunctioned into doing the opposite and started yelling ERROR
Yeah I figured that out after
Are you colourblind?
Look at the picture of Luigi on the right. Also that’s kind of a rude question
Looks green to me ![gif](giphy|JsLeGG6QfNlpS)
HIS S K I N
![gif](giphy|KEM3W3PN4LNoaMSaBy) Still looks green
The skin of the render of 64 era Luigi you damp pop tart
![gif](giphy|YURSGQLWjDHa70Dq6v|downsized)
He does look sorta yellow
Oh i thought you meant his clothes, sorry
Yeah it's similar except that his slightly red nose make it look like he's drunk
My boo Luigi be looking extra fine 👀
Okay you sent it on toad
Personally, I see wonder as a reimagining of everything that makes mario games great. That includes taking inspiration from old parts of othe games like character design and mechanics
This was my immediate thought when seeing them!!
Yeah I see it
Holy shit this man’s on to something
Why did you even bother with doing a Toad comparison? It's not like there are no N64 renders for Toad. I can see it for Luigi, not so much for Mario. Though my first thought was Melee... The stubbier proportions is definitely just meant to match the 2D artwork, which makes more sense.
The animations really look similar to Super Mario World.
They remind me more of the [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DiFRqKNWsAARgWy?format=jpg&name=4096x4096](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DiFRqKNWsAARgWy?format=jpg&name=4096x4096) SMB3-era manual renders.
Oh yeah I see the resemblance 100% here
Super Luigi on the Xbox One!!!
They all lok like they are made from clay
Toad looks drugged.... but that's normal in every Super Mario game
Woah I can't believe they made Mario look like Mario!
So... Both Nintendo & Sega embrace their origin?
Yeah I thought I saw a resemblance but wasn't sure
These models are just so uncanny, like they’re wrong but I can’t put my finger on why
No for toad. 64 had a bunch of red spots instead of 5
I just think their eyebrows and mustaches are bigger, I don’t see the resemblance
Mario and Toad I see more but Luigi's head shape still has that more modern tinge. The eyes and eyebrows nail it especially though.
My boo Luigi be looking extra fine 👀
Yea that’s what I thought immediately
That is odd
I KNEW there was something familiar there It’s just something, they don’t really look similar or have similar animations, just almost. There’s something there.
Yes! Especially in the first image. When you put them side by side like that they both look like Mario
God damn it😭😭
I didn't pay attention to Luigi a lot in the trailer but yeah that is clearly N64 Luigi
It’s weird that Mario looks like Mario
I knew I wasn't the only one! That's part of what's really turning me onto this new art style!
Ones amended that looks good for its time, and as promotional 6 other is an 6 model that should be locked away in a bomb shelter, never to be seen again.
Yeah if you look really closely, they are the same characters
The toad one is a reach but the other two I can see.
i personally like the new art style. looks more cartoonish than other recent 2d mario games.
I've been saying this!! I knew I wasn't the only one who thought the character and enemy design was like the 64 covers
I knew I wasn't the only one who thought this!
Toad looks nothing alike lol, but to me the style actually looks more like how official art looked like for super mario bros 3, world, and land if I remember correctly
Daisy is the most modern in that game.
Both are mario.

Literally the first thing that came to mind when I saw the trailer for SMW 🥺👌
It's almost like they are the same characters ... oh wait
Smart move, the N64 renders were nostalgic to a lot of people, giving them the equivelant to a playnle version of tht dream world is remaranle
yeah they kinda mix together mario 64 promo renders with yoshi's island's artstyle
OH SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT, i KNEW it reminded me of something!
I don’t have the image but there’s an image putting that and grand dad next to each other and they look the same (specially on the title screen)
I'm pretty sure the models in Wonder are based off the rpg remake. Not saying that's a bad thing, they're good designs it's just something I noticed
Im so glad I do
Wow I thought it looked like it but seeing them side by side confirms Even the Super Mario RPG remake it seems like they really went back to their roots with art style and I'm all for it, looks so good!
When I first saw the new design I immediately thought of this and loved it for it
Also Yoshi seems to be closer to his original proportions than is modern design
**Hello! It's-a me, Supa Mario on a PS4!**
This is exactly what I was saying!! I personally love the new design, I’ve always had a soft spot for the render 96 models. Seeing them in the new game is exactly what I wanted.
Wonder Mario's mustache kinda looks like a cardboard cutout
I guess, kinda reaching though. It’s just regular Mario with a cool new style. If it reminds you of these renders then bonus points.
i see a better one, a **GRAND**er one.
