I expressed some of my ramblings to BaB. Your feelings?
Danchastu: *thud*
Danchastu: Question: Besides Shiggy does anyone else make original first party games for Nintendo?
Penguin Bobby: um sure.. but none as famous
Danchastu: He seems to have control over every single project though.
Penguin Bobby: haha he directs
Penguin Bobby: he doesn't directly control
Danchastu: I think Mario Sunshine was gonna look like how it did at spaceworld then he told the guy to make it to be like Mario 64 and hence the new graphic change
Penguin Bobby: I think u misinterpreted da quote
Danchastu: Ok then why doesn't the Arctic One explain it
Penguin Bobby: da quote if u will
Danchastu: Actually, at this time, we're on this media tour showing the game to people, but we're not really talking in too much detail about the contents of the game. [laughs] It's true that Mario 64 really was a very, very innovative game when it came to the execution of action in a 3D world. So really what we see Mario Sunshine as being is kind of a continuation and expansion of Mario 64. So while we're working with this idea of maintaining the same system and style of gameplay as Mario 64, the director is really trying to add new elements. I mean, you see in the video that Mario is now carrying a water cannon, and that's going to play a role in the game. But he has so many ideas and so many things that he wants to implement into the game that it would take a very, very long time to get them all in there, so we're at a point where I've kind of stopped him and said, "You know it's OK if the game is more like Mario 64." But I think you are going to see that there are a lot of other things that have kind of been piled in there to help round out the game, and it's going to be something for everyone to look forward to.
Penguin Bobby: ok good.. now wut did u think it meant
Danchastu: That the director was changing Mario a lot with all the tropical stuff and making the world look realistic and such adding a bunch of new elements. Then Miyamoto comes by and drop kicks this guy's ass telling him to stop with all the ideas and base it more off Mario 64. Thus the style changed to resemble more of the Mario 64 look.
Penguin Bobby: hahah
Penguin Bobby: I think da quote refers more to da gameplay
Danchastu: You would that if there wasn't such a drastic change in the overall look of the game since SpaceWorld.
Penguin Bobby: Well how do we know it was a change afterwards?
Danchastu: because those shots are from the new video
Danchastu: Old stuff wouldn't be shown without being called old stuff
Penguin Bobby: u mean new as in recently released.. dat doesn't mean it was a new game
Penguin Bobby: did they call it new stuff?
Penguin Bobby: dey r new shots
Danchastu: ya
Penguin Bobby: doesn't mean it's an updated version of da game
Danchastu: Didn't say it was. Just that they decided to make the art more resemble Mario64 than that of the realistic direction they were heading
Penguin Bobby: Hmm and dat is a bad thing?
Danchastu: It was great for the N64 and all but now it appears to be like Mario 64 but just rounded off the sharp edges...slightly updatining the graphics. They can be compared to Conker.
Danchastu: Mario Sunshine looks like it could be a late Nintendo 64. Just like how some games that came out on SNES in 98 have sprites that are comparable to PSX.
Penguin Bobby: hmm
Danchastu: Miyamoto seems to be pushing Pikmin more than anything else. He wants to create new series but the consumers want the classic characters so he continues with those games yet while he wants to be innovative he also seemed afraid of change for his old characters. Afraid to make Link and Mario more real.
