Super Mario 3D World's assets for example actually look pretty close to NSMB's assets when placed in a 2D view (where you can't take advantage of camera angels and the lighting in a 3D scape). But you still see that style in the game (unless I'm wrong and the 3D style isn't actually in the game, with the cat power up being a separate thing, but I doubt it and either way you get my point).

Oh yeah, the 3D World style is absolutely in the game.

Go to 56 seconds: You can see the 3D World logo in the top left corner. Also, the gameplay does have some pretty significant differences from the NSMB style. The camera in NSMB is completely orthographic, but 3D World uses a perspective camera. Pause at 1:00 and look at stuff near the edges of the screen. You can see the undersides, tops, and sides of blocks, which isn't something that ever happens in a 2D Mario style.

Yeah I figured it was it's own completely new style in the game - thanks for confirming. Looking back at it I shouldn't have doubted myself at all considering the background even has 3D World stages and music. I've forgotten by now I'm glad it's in because I love that game! 

So yeah, overall I think Mario Odyssey is incredibly likely ... it will probably be the big E3 reveal for the game.
