Also, you can't say SMW looks gross and then put NSMB's aesthetics on a pedestal. that's just straight up trolling at that point

So this is how the world ends. The free world bans anime and people turn into monsters thinking SMW looks ugly.

Weirdest Zombie apocalypse scenario ever.

There's nothing bland about NSMBU's art. It's a drastically better looking game than the other NSMB games (and all 2D marios not named paper mario)

 

[Fantastapotamus]

It's funny though that Jeff and Dan love Mario Maker so much when they hate NSMB, they never use SMB or Mario 3 tilesets, they hate underwater levels, they hate auto-playing levels. They enjoy making levels in the SMW tileset and that's it. They enjoy maybe 30% of the game, and yet they loved it enough to make it GotY.

Spoiler

Maaaaaybe MGSV should've won.

If I'm not mistaken Jeff mostly makes SMB levels and Dan uses the SM3 tileset a lot.

I automatically skip any level in the NSMB tileset that comes up. Even the very best Nintendo levels in that style are just okay, but it seems to be the default style for the worst level creators.

It seems like you're basing your opinion purely off of these levels, which are made by committee. They've totally made levels using SMB3, SMB, and even the NSMB tilesets.

Man, Mario World is just an ugly look. Like some kinda shitty fan art.

Get out.

The truth hurts. Mario World looks like dogshit, some of the worst pixel art of the generation. NSMB is vibrant and beautiful, it's what Mario is supposed to look like.

Fight me.

NSMB looks like a plastic nightmare. Like a mid 90s attempts at 3D rendering.

How am I trolling? I enjoy the colorful, cartoonish look of NSMB series. It's crisp but playful. It looks like a game made out of how the 3D Mario renders have looked for years. When I see it, it looks exactly like how my brain has always thought Mario is supposed to look like. Especially the castle levels with the lava glowing off of everything. It's gorgeous.

Super Mario World looks like Nintendo didn't know what to do with the extra technology offered by the SNES, so they just threw shit at the wall. Mario World looks like they weren't sure what they really wanted Mario to look like.

Liking Anime and hating the SMW look is basically the same though.

Totally. It looks like some bootleg iPhone game somebody made using preexisting Unity assets

I have a G-R-E-A-T idea. They should drink every time they lose. This would be way funnier that way.

Someone gif Jeff's face when he got killed by that bob-omb.

I don't know, I like the New Super Mario Bros. look. It's not especially attractive in the earlier stages, but when you get to the non-grassland style stages, it looks great.

People have been clamoring for another Jeff endurance run.

Exactly. The first world can be a bit by-the-numbers, but the further the games go, the better they look.

The only good looking level in NSMBU is that painting-like level and they only use it once and never again.

Well, there are only 3 so at least that's a pretty easy-to-satisfy addiction.

That would still be one more than Mario World has.

hyperbole, but the feeling is genuine.

Did Jeff say he unplugged his Xbox One?

I'm thinking about selling it myself.

Isn't he playing Quantum Break? He mentioned the embargo. I imagine they sent out an Xbox copy and not PC due to how demanding the PC version is.

Fun fact: My XBox One is my most used console.

I just don't ever game on it. I'm the one person in the world who uses the TV passthrough and actually likes it.

 

[justjim89]

Now I know you're just bullshitting us.

I think I've just really turned the corner on Mario Maker. All I wanted at GotY time was for MGSV to lose because of how it hurt me, but I never stopped to think about how I actually felt about SMM.
