Nintendo's Unexpected Dive Into Realism
Nintendo has always been known to have cartoony art style and worse graphics compared to the Playstation and Xbox. But what if I told you there was a time when Nintendo opted for realistic graphics on their flagship franchises like Mario and Zelda? Join me as we take a look back at realism in Nintendo's graphics, and how we could potentially see it in the future.

The Potential Greatness Or Disaster Of Fire Emblem Engage
Переглядів 1 тис.Рік тому
Fire Emblem Engage looks to be the most ambitious entry in the series, bringing back its loved gameplay style, but taking major risks by bringing back fan favorite characters in a mainline format. In this video, I break down the initial trailer, theorize gameplay mechanics, the story, and give my overall thoughts on the game as an avid Fire Emblem fan.

12 Predictions For The Upcoming NINTENDO DIRECT

Nintendo's E3 is right around the corner, and this time it's particularly interesting because we know so much about the Switch's 2022 lineup. Typically, Nintendo likes to reserve trailers for their big titles within Directs only, but this year we've already seen Nintendo release follow up trailers for big titles like Splatoon 3, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Mario Strikers Battle League, and Fire Emb...
Can Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Be Surpassed?
Переглядів 7732 роки тому
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is a phenomenal game, but now that our final fighter has been revealed, what's next for the series? Series director Masahiro Sakurai has made it clear that making a game that includes this many fighters again wouldn't be possible. So how can Nintendo top Smash Ultimate? Enjoy the video as I give my ideas for Smash's future. This video is partly inspired by Super Mario...

    Twilight Princess art style uses more of a grounded fantasy art style much like Lord of the Rings. It’s style was even based on those movies.

      Yup Metroid Prime and Metroid Other M were actually some of the games that inspired this video! They already take on a pretty realistic style and with better hardware, I think the games could look incredible

    Miyamoto always wanted Zelda realistic in 3D. He stated "You know, it's not too late to change course and make a realistic Zelda." during Wind Waker's development. Early games had realistic official art drawn by Katsuya Terada. Ocarina of Time's art style was rendered even more realistically in the 2000s Spaceworld Zelda tech demo. As well as the North American commercial for Oracle of Ages and Seasons.

      Oh wow I didn’t know that! I really like how the Zelda series has always changed its style but a part of me wants to see Zelda in a fully realistic style. Especially if that was what their developer’s have always had in mind for the series, I think it just needs to happen again (TP being the first time). Hopefully they’re able to come through with it with the Switch 2

  • @entral298

    Graphics aren't everything, style lasts the test of time. That said the switch is basically a smart phone in terms of specs, so can't really expect better until a switch 2/pro/+ or whatever they will call it happens that is at least an 80% power increase happens

    • @etherealah
      @etherealah 2 місяці тому

      Totally agree with you. Style does outweigh graphics. I’m not really opting for graphics over style, I’m just saying that I’d like to see the series take a more serious/realistic style which obviously would be enhanced with better graphics. I’m really banking on Switch 2 rumors for the graphics and processing to be a lot better tho haha

    Noooo, I want a huge Zelda in a similar style to the Zelda track in MK8. Also, TP isn't realistic it just has a muted muddy brown colour palette.

    • @etherealah
      @etherealah 2 місяці тому

      Oh wow I’ve never heard anyone say they’d want a Zelda in the MK8 style track but that’s actually really interesting to think about. It’s kind of similar to the Hyrule Warriors style in a way. I’d actually be really down for a full game of that. Also I’d disagree that TP isn’t realistic. It may seem that it’s just a muted color palette, but that might be because of the hardware limitations. I only say that it is more on the realistic style because Aonuma himself has said that they made TP to be the “realistic Zelda.” You can see that quote at 01:58.

      Twilight Princess is more of a muddy dark fantasy art style. That’s why it resembles movies like Lord of the Rings.

    Warning: Fire Emblem, once again, replaced "sexes" with "forms". On top of that, the political correctness is happening in the Japanese version too. The Twitter comments by Nintendo and the Japanese Fire Emblem accounts showed them. Make video game companies understand by not buying their bloat video games.

    My main concern for this game aside from the questionable art style (3D Character Models) and the gimmicky engage mechanic, is that I hope this doesn’t turn away any potential new fans. Like if this game turns out to lean heavy in fan service over good story and mechanics, newer fans may skip over fire emblem in the future…. And that can be bad….

    • @etherealah
      @etherealah Рік тому

      Yea I agree with you there. I think the gameplay looks good so far but too much fan service and a bad plot could definitely turn newcomers away. I’ve already seen reactions like that from non-hardcore FE fans that don’t seem to be super excited for this game, but I still have high hopes for it

    A remake of a classic series like melee might also be possible - keep mechanics/characters the same and change the graphics and effects. They could also add a story mode to it to appeal to a newer audience. Similar to the Pokémon franchise’s Brilliant Diamond / Shining Pearl.
