Miyamoto: games nowadays look so realistic that they all look the same

I also feel like Miyamoto is kind of pulling this opinion out of his ass too. Yeah, a lot of games that may be considered AAA employ a more realistic art style because it's the best choice for that series. Could you imagine if Uncharted was more cartoony in anyway? If Until Dawn decided to go more colorful instead of realistic? If Gears of War decided that colors popping or a less realistic style was better than a more realistic gritty look?

Games pick the most fitting art style. If realistic doesn't fit Nintendo's time, budget, and overall style, that's fine. Acting as if other games are doing something wrong for employing more realistic looks that people are, you know, asking for just smells like jealously and frustration over criticism towards the look of some of Nintendo's latest announcements.

Edit: Even then, he's missing the mark on Starfox. People aren't saying the overall style is bad, but rather, the quality looks like something out of the Gamecube era in quite a few places currently. This is just dumb all the way through lol

disagree with your points, I think a Gears of War game could be really cool if it had more of an over the top cyber punk sort of imagery and possibly less realistic graphics

    I think plenty of people would find it interesting to have totally off the wall graphics in terms of things. who wants to constantly play games that look like real life? gaming sometimes is an escape from real life, it can be nice to see a totally new and alien environment, particularly if it is based on something that we already know and understand
