"New York City" is called "New Donk City," and I see "Dixie Street" and "Cranky Street" on signposts

I guess the Kong's took over the City... mob like.

 

[Alienous]

The art direction for this looks like a mess to me.

 

[Nepenthe]

except for the games being fantastic...sure. mario is the new sonic. well done. really good conclusion.

Lemme reskin Sonic 06 with Classic-style graphics.

Owait, it's still shit. How does that work?

 

[sappyday]

It looks really weird but enough to make me interested. Haven't been that way since Galaxy for me.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

This game looks crazy and amazing. I can't wait.

 

[Aquavelvaman]

Can't wait to raise my chao in New Donk City

 

[Milly Osworth]

Are you saying that Mario will have to rescue Princess Peach from a Donkey Kong who grabs her and clambers up the side of the Empire Banana Building?

 

[ohdearohdear]

The art direction for this looks like a mess to me.

theres (probably) going to be a plot reason for the mix of realism (the trees and city) and the colourful abstract areas...dimensions or some shit.

 

[Ran rp]

"New Donk City,"

ohmy god

 

[Ravek]

Plot and Mario?

 

[Road of Ease]

Looks like Sonic Adventure done right and I CAN'T WAIT

 

[MadJackChurchill]

Name looks familiar. Was this one of the leaks? If so, who leaked it?

4chan.

Mario Goes To Manhattan.

 

[Ginger Hail]

Game looks fantastic. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

 

[Toparaman]

So are we finally going to see Mario doing some actual plumbing in New York?

 

[Messiek]

No power-ups were shown...

 

[daTRUballin]

Wait, is this like a true sequel to 64 and Sunshine?????

 

[OldMan]

The dudes been MIA since sunshine but I like this new one

One of the screens shows Construction Goombas!!

 

[brandonh83]

i just want to say

That this looks fucking amazing.

 

[TrueBlue]

Heh, people wanted Mario to do something a little different. They even went to lengths to say that this is set away from the Mushroom Kingdom.

 

[Mesonak]

I really hope that they DON'T change the city art style. It looks fantastic and unique and incredibly varied.

 

[Slamtastic]

Sonic Adventure city and a return to open sandboxes...

Worth the price of admission, easily. Nintendo has delivered.

 

[darklin0]

The City reminds me of Sonic '06 and that makes me worried.

The rest of it looks damn good though.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Christ almighty this is looking incredible!!!

 

[visiblemode]

This looks....superb.

 

[rex]

Is that a checkpoint flag at 1:47?

We want zero linearity Nintendo! Remove it please!

I actually think the city looks great but they gotta get rid of those dreadful humans. I think it's gonna be amazing to jump around and explore it.

That long jump off the skyscraper is amazing.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

I guess the idea is that he's travelling to different worlds, but it just makes the game look like it doesn't have cohesive art design to me. I don't know. It's so disjointed and lacking in strong art direction in certain parts that it feels like one of those demos where someone put Mario in UE4 to show you what it would look like. That city level looks eerily reminiscent of Sonic Adventure (art wise) which I don't think is a good thing.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

Christ almighty this is looking incredible!!!

Yeah it looks so good. Im not even as big of a mario fan as most on Gaf

 

[Bronx-Man]

I really hope that they DON'T change the city art style. It looks fantastic and unique and incredibly varied.

same

fuck the haters

they just don't understand us true new donkers

 

[Goldenmoney]

This game looks epic, though I'm a little worried about the camera, but maybe it's just cuz it's a trailer.

 

[lamaroo]

Open world Mario never sounded appealing to me, so I hope everyone else is happy at least.

Hopefully I don't have to steal somebody's car to drive to the next level.

 

[Agent Unknown]

Look crazy awesome but really irritated that it's not launch or at least a summer title, really sick of having to wait until holidays after for every 3D Mario.

 

[Galang]

No complaints from me on this one... looks good. The humans kinda surprised me, but I oddly think it works. They really killed the style imo. And yay for original bosses

 

[Net_Wrecker]

City section is so bad aesthetically. Like oh noo. Why didn't they make a downtown mushroom kingdom instead.

Rest of this looks fantastic.

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Love that they're going back to "open world" design philosophy of 64 and Sunshine but those visuals were rough as hell to me. Think Galaxy games have aged better than that style personally.

 

[Woffls]

This game looks so crazy. Expecting some off-beat 90s creativity.

 

[sanstesy]

Really? No GIFs?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Why are people complaining about the city.

Did you guys not see it? It was intentional. Superimposed with the cel shaded food world, the realistic forest, etc. among other things.

 

[Omega Kirby]

So if mario gets a real human pregnant , how does he child look like?

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

The trailer is the first time I've been really wowed by a Mario game since Mario 64. I love the series, but this is the "something new" I think it's needed for a loooooong time.

 

[BowieZ]

I don't get why people race to make OPs and then don't even add relevant images, details and links?

Not even the logo?

 

[Alcotholic]

Mario is gonna kiss a human!

Hahaha love it! Count me in as a fan of New Donk City!

Why not New Kong City? It fits better.

Intentional or not it still sucks.

 

[Brashnir]

shoehorning in some plot reason it looks terrible won't make it not look terrible.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Conflict emotions.
I hate Sunshine and Sonic Adventure.
But then this could be that getting rid of the bad parts and being more Mario 64 in spirit.

I like the city BUT the humans... would have liked they were a little more mushroom kingdom like. Hell, they could have used Diamond City (even if it looks like New York) and have the Wario Ware characters there. Now that would have been amazing.
I do like they still gave the a 1920's aspect to the humans though.

The rest looks more than amazing, Galaxy and 64 style.

EDIT
Oh New York is supposed to be from the DK games... Oh that could be really cool.

 

[Kneefoil]

Can't dig how the realistic style of the cities clash with the rest of the game, but other than that it looks really damn good.

 

[watershed]

Loving the varied levels. I hope this game is as amazing as it looks.
