If Nintendo never went with the gamepad features I'm pretty sure little would change with its art direction. What we would have is a scenario where people are complaining not just about its graphics, but why there is no meaningful gamepad implementation. |
Gamepad definitely affects processing power. The graphics would have changed completely. Literally replacing the gamepad with a map/inventory would have been enough. The game would have improved vastly

Nintendo would have had the art style , character models and environments ready way before they started tinkering with gamepad controls. Plus as somebody has stated, Mario Kart 8 can render on both screens, and that's hardly a bad looking game. Star Fox looks like it does because its Miyamotos vision on how he wants the game to look.
