I thought this was worth sharing. He goes through all the different 3D Mario models since SM64 in detail.

That OG Smash Bros model is....something lol
I love how they swap out the "detailed" model for a super low poly one when the camera is far away. I presume lots of games do this.
Also, it's pretty amazing that the highest quality Mario models wasn't even made by Nintendo, but Sega!
[edit] He's done a Sonic episode now as well.
