I guess Nintendo will try to get a nice comic look. The power of Mario graphics are effects, lighting, details, etc. It doesn't need a fully detailed, realistic guy that's supposed to be Mario.
HD itself will just offer a greater resolution so everything looks cleaner and sharper. It doesn't automatically change Mario, that's still Nintendo's job ^^

I can imagine Mario in HD the problem is imagining Mario with Mass Effect-like graphics, I agree that he's not really meant to look realistic. I'm guessing they will just make the areas more brighter and nicer looking, I already think Mario looks pretty sharp so I can't wait to see Super Mario Galaxy on the Wii 2.

I can't believe i hadn't noticed the graphics of Tales of Vesperia when i made this topic.

The graphics of that game are an example that not all Xbox 360 games need to look realistic to look great.

At e3 2010, Nintendo showed us the debut 3ds trailer, and at 1:20 it shows Bowser chasing Mr.Iwata and Shiggy. Could they be using that as the next graphics engine for the next mario game on project cafe? Let's Hope so!!!! Look at how shiny the coins are!!

That's not exactly a graphics engine that they showed in the E3 3DS trailer. It's a pre-rendered animation they probably made in Adobe After Effects or something. If anything, it's more likely a teaser for Super Mario 3DS than Super Mario Café, though it just as well may be meaningless.

Still, I have absolutely no doubt Super Mario Café will be friggin' incredible. Let's hope we see it at E3.

I hope so too, although I think that like with the 3DS, Nintendo will leave their big franchises for a while until announcing them. Having said that, the 3DS hasn't sold brilliantly so Nintendo may learn from their mistake and make a Mario launch title.

[Waller]

I don't think so. I'm sure the coins in project cafe will be shinier.

eh.....graphics graphics graphics seems thats what everyone is concerned about now. I would rather have gameplay over graphics. Remember when the PSP came out? everyone was like ohhhh look at those awesome graphics for a handheld! ya...well the gameplay stinks like the games. just pointing that out there.

Let's just hope that if they do make an HD Mario, they won't make it look like this! I would love to see an HD Mario, since I would love to see Bowser's castle in HD, but I wouldn't like it if they started to try make the characters more realistic.

Not all PSP games suck, there are good games in it just like in the DS.
No I do not only care about graphics, I just couldn't imagine Mario with PS3 graphics when I made this thread.
Now i find it easy to see Mario with PS3 graphics.

to tell the truth i dont see how mario can even get even better graphics than now.

We'll just have to wait to see.

[nintendo3DS]

yes...yes...we will.

[Merchiodos]

Yeah Brawl

[Gruff]

I can imagine Mario on better than PS3 graphics. I picture it as, Mario will still have a cartoon style graphics but with a lot more polygons. (like the grass would be 3D rather than a flat surface with a texture and Mario's body would be made of a lot mare polygons)

One Word... Brawl

Brawl? Brawl styled Mario game?

[.Hamish]

i would like mario with better graphics, but would not like it if he got really realistic. For me, id prefer the simpler cartoony version than a real life version

[CBNS]

Cartoon style HD graphics have looked pretty awesome in RPG games like Eternal Sonata & Tales of Vesperia so i can't wait to see Mario in HD.
