I thought he was gonna pull out a gun

no

I think the fact Nintendo barely tries to be "relatable" on their brand accounts nowadays shows that they weren't trying to be genuine or sincere in the Wii U era, they were very clearly desperate for money cuz their system was hot ass

intentional or not, they kinda give off the vibe of what FNAF could've looked like if it intentionally had the 90s 3D style and I like that

this is what Nintendo were working on before SM64 /j

people like to say things like "oh Nintendo are making SURE Illumination don't do their usual thing" but are they? 😭 Nobody has ever considered Nintendo are resting on their laurels cuz they know the fans will eat up anything they make

I'm definitely gonna make new refs someday so that's why I haven't posted em here

yes

would the pack include whatever this thing was on the bottom left

finally

Somewhat Dry Bowser

If the final version of Mario is a little gremlin then Beta Mario is the failed experiment they tried bringing into the real world

why not

using Blender rather than SM64 itself honestly kinda gives off the same vibe as these old images and I like that

I'm just curious why the textures on the characters somehow changed

DK looks like he's made out of chocolate
