Box art was undeniably as cartoony as now, but in-game graphics? Well, we could even define "cartoony" DK1 graphics too, but in-game graphics of Mario himself were more masculine, despite already cartoony, in the first games. Just think about this: the earliest in-game Mario looked quite like Ron Jeremy, the newest Marios don't.   

Mario has not changed much at all.

 

The first Mario, as he was in the earliest games. third from left, upper row: he was very different. I agree that successive ones are more similar to each other, but anyway he noticeably changed since they started drawing the iris of his eyes.

Funny thing is that's Mario from Mario Land. The SMB Mario isn't mentioned, neither is the one from Donkey Kong, nor the one from Mario Bros. Key Mario entries imho are missing from this pic, and odd thing the new mario pinball is displayed but not the old one.
