Kinda Funny: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfKxP3jQUTo

OK, that is my last video. I will not watch anything until this game is released.

Amazing video, by the way.

 

[Diddy Kong]

I cannot wait for this game. I need it. I need it. I. NEED. IT.

From the previous thread:

That's quite an upgrade for the eel.

 

[Myze]

This is going to trigger so many people that still have nightmares from the original eel.

To be fair, the SM64 eels are much more terrifying. Probably because of lower poly count and devil-spawn vacant eyes.

 

[farting]

are those, nipples?

why wouldn't mario have nipples?

 

[Luigiv]

Posted this in the other thread but I should probably reiterate here for those who'll miss it.

Did a quick pixel count on one screen and counted an internal resolution of 1600x900. of course since I only counted one screen, I have no idea if dynamic resolution scaling is used or not.

Edit: here's my count for the horizontal axis, if you're interested.

The real question is why Mario lacks a belly button

From the previous thread:

Haha ofc felt the same. And it's actually tricky section, as cheep-cheep controls are funny. (Buttons to go up/down, then shaking and stick).

Here's my first 14-screen gallery from those three kingdoms:

Those ground based 2D levels are such an improvement to that awful underground pipe network in Sushine.

Thank God for the resolution bump, I can live with that at 60fps, thank you Nintendo

Another set of impressions with video: http://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/mario-odyssey

 

[Otakumegane]

So this looks 720p.

With only a month left I doubt they could get it to 900. Slightly disappointing.

[Red Devil]

I need this game in my veins.

Indiana Pupper

Well, didn't Indiana Jones refer to himself as "Indiana" because of his dog? #DeepestLore

From the previous thread:

I wonder if you can control the eel, it seems that any enemy that has a hat is off limits but the eel doesn't have one.

 

[Sygma]

portable game. PORTABLE GAME

this what a time to be alive

 

[Boke1879]

That's quite an upgrade for the eel.

This is still going to make me uneasy.

One of my biggest things that scare me in video games and in real life for that matter are big open areas of water. And in video games having to swim in that. I'm always worried some big shark or some otherworldly creature will be there.

 

[Litri]

SOLD, SOLD, SOLD!

 

[silva1991]

The game that might make me buy the system.

 

[Markitron]

I think I'm going to go on blackout with this, which I rarely do ever.

Yea, me too. Think I'm gonna bail out of this thread now too. I'll be starting this on the 23rd of December (it's my designated Christmas game) so I'll have to be careful.

 

[The Main Event]

I'm avoiding all the previews. But reading people's comments sure brings a smile to my face.

 

[RichiRamjag]

Looks like someone tested it earlier and came to the conclusion that it is already 900.

I was playing freedom cry the other day and those sharks were scaring the shit out of me lol.

 

[Currygan]

The real question is why Mario lacks a belly button

Mario lacks something else as well

 

[Dwight Schrute]

It's totally the

Spoiler

Mushroom Kingdom

which we already know exists, but the question then is how much of

Spoiler

Mario 64

is actually recreated in that?

Imagine if it's not just

Spoiler

Peach's Castle, but also several of the worlds from 64 too...

Spoiler

There are Void levels which are similar to those pure platforming levels from Sunshine.

Wait whaaaa

 

[Platy]

Mario lacks something else as well

He lacks eyelashes because he is a boy in a cartoony style

 

[Graphics Horse]

Wait whaaaa

It exists on the globe, so..

 

[Red Devil]

Well for those worried about the lack of platforming...

 

[bequietdrive]

Absolutely loved the three hours I spent with this. Was difficult to tear myself away!

Here's my preview for Fandom.

 

[Dyle]

Mario lacks something else as well

Not everyone can grow a beard

Maybe there will be a Viking outfit with a fake beard for Mario to wear

 

[DLaicH]

Mario lacks something else as well

Oh my gosh you're right! How did I never notice that his left kidney was missing?!

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

Did Digital Foundry get a chance to take a look at this build? Interested to see if they managed to get the game up to 720p for release. Otherwise, everything about this game looks amazing!

Edit: I also wonder if the screenshot mode is nVidia's Ansel technology/software?

 

[Bendo]

Waypoint also wrote a great preview. I'm loving the comparisons to adventure games, sounds like Nintendo are absolutely knocking it out of the park on this one.

The caveman costume/hat from the direct had a beard I think.

 

[Alrus]

Well for those worried about the lack of platforming...

Hope there's tons of them.

Spoiler

And bring back the rolling ball stars from Galaxy too,
I know everyone hated them but I found them really fun.

 

[StereoVsn]

Well, between this and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 I am getting a Switch. That will make it at least 4-5 games that I will want to get for the system.

 

[ghibli99]

I think I'm going to just quit the internet for the next 5 weeks. This is too much.

Well for those worried about the lack of platforming...

YES.

 

[crecente]

Uploaded the Glixel video caps to Youtube, if you'd prefer to see them there:

[Vital Tundra]

Gotta resist... I don't need to see...

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Pretty sure this soundtrack is going to top Galaxy's.

 

[Askherserenity]

From the Metro preview. oh shit

Not really a spoiler, but I'm gonna' tag it anyway.

Spoiler

"For each demo we had a Nintendo rep hovering over us, telling us when to stop and what we absolutely could not do or talk about. For example, portraits in each stage seem to work as quick portals between kingdoms, and one of them let us get a sneak peek at one that’s not yet announced. We can’t say what it is but it looks amazing, and will blow the minds of Super Mario 64 fans."

Give me this game.

Ughhhh

Pirate Mario costume looks great with an eye patch and all.

It's 900p, see above. At the very least it reaches 900p, if it uses dynamic resolution.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Well for those worried about the lack of platforming...

Now that's what I'm talking about. It's not that exploration is bad, it's what this series needed too. It's that the rewards for exploration need to be awesome and not just a bunch of repetitive tasks. Finding a random door that takes you to an awesome platforming challenge is exactly what this game should be filled with. The platforming level is the reward for exploring.

 

[Kinsei]

Well for those worried about the lack of platforming...

Neat. Hopefully Volbono is early on in the game based on the challenge of the platforming in the video.

 

[Undead Fantasy]

Peach's Castle confirmed.

God... PLEASE BE LIKE THE 64 ONE.

 

[ZugZug123]

I need to stop clicking on these threads, want to be surprised by the game as I play it

 

[Nere]

What I care is if those adorable penguins are making a return from galaxy and 64.

 

[Red Devil]

Ughhhh

I think people should keep their expectations in check though, I think at best it'll be Peach's Castle and that's it, we shouldn't be expecting any SM64 worlds or anything.
