with the increase of cel shading in games like zelda and time splitters, i think that sooner or later there might be a mario game made using cel shading,

also games could use part cel shading, ie, you play most of the game using ur standard polygons or spritesm, and maybe for one level or something you get warped into a kind of cartoonish land whereby everything is cel shaded????????

what do u all think????, would you be horrified is mario became cel shaded????????

Heh, they could go part realistic and part cel-shaded to make a Hellraiser game. Or part realsitic, part plastacine...

I think cel shaded mario would work fairly well, the idea sounds better than zelda did at first. I think mario's style has changed so much across all his releases since donkey kong that it's hard to pin him down to anything specific anyway. Then again, you could say the same thing about zelda.

Wow, this post isn't utter crap! Congrats to Boxcar boy.

I don't think Timesplitters 2 is cel-shaded though...? The only FPS I know of that is is that XIII game... And people at one point thought Zelda would employ a part cel-shaded, part-realistic two world system. (OOT had 2 worlds, adult and child, and the SNES Zelda had the normal world and the 'dark' world, so another 2 world game seemed a possibility) That idea would have been really innovative, if very difficult to implement... Still, I don't see why something like that couldn't happen, maybe even do a game like that Roger Rabbit film (anyone remember that) where certain characters (like the 'Toons' were in the film) are cel-shaded, while others look realistic. It could work.

I have grown to like cel shading (especially Zelda) but I don't think it would work with Mario!

I've got a pretty strong feeling that mario games will not become cel-shaded. After all, there's a certain style to Mario games, and to change the look would change the games altogether.
