Boy, does that ever look like a N64 game more everyday.

Even though some might be turned off to the "kiddie" look, I'm actually excited to play this next installment of Mario.

Hopefully it will be at 60 fps... if super monkey ball can do it, mario can too!!

Nothing wrong with another Mario 3d platformer.

That blotchy green textured wall behind them looks really ugly. I hope the game looks better being played.

This was a scan from famistu magazine, so the quality takes a hit right there, i can't wait for this game!

i think it looks pretty good. i'm looking forward to this one. i've not been dissapointed with a mario title yet. they always seem to be real fun to play.

The characters seem to have a higher polygon count than earlier screenshots, which is a good sign. Hopefully the rumors that the textures are just placeholders are true...because the ones in that shot are awful.

Miyamoto and others have said that these textures are just placeholders, and are actually from Mario 64. Hopefully that is true and the game will look much better at E3.

If not, as long as it plays well, I'll ignore the textures.

Besides, if you went and played Mario 64 RIGHT NOW you'd see it looks nowhere near as good as MS. I played it last week and it was terrible (graphically). We've been spoiled with silky smooth framerates and now M64's framerate is just so bad.

Sweet!! I can't wait to ride <big> Yoshi!!!!!! </big>

I think the exact oppoite is true. That new Yoshi pic looks pretty good.

Just to clarify, I don't think Miyamoto or anyone actually involved with the projects has said they are placeholders. That claim is from Planet GameCube.

Could be. I don't care personally. Graphics don't matter jack to me, and the newest screen shot looks more than good enough to me. Graphic whores are ruining the game industry. There's way to many games out there that look great but have no gameplay because so many people, including some on this forum, care more about graphics than anything else. This has all but ruined the PC game industry, hopefully something will stop it from ruining the console industry.

Anyway, people saying it looks like an N64 game are full of crap. Super Mario 64 looks like crap compared to these screen shots. Unless of course other system fanboys post pics of Mario 64 running at a higher resolution on a PC emulator.

I just saw a video at planet gamecube, both Zelda and Mario are looking awesome in full motion. They shoot themselves in the feet with this captures.... full motion all the way baby!

i watched the video stuff they had over at planetgamecube as well and i gotta tell you, zelda and mario looked to be awsome. i am very interested in the post-E3 impressions of these.
