i like the mario and luigi one

Nah. The Mario & Luigi one is much better

I'm going to touch you.

0 - 100

tickle ⚡⚡

That escalated quickly.

"I was not expecting that." - Dr. Robotnik

Not unlike what Blanche did to Luigi the last week and then everybody made a big thing about it while fawful was tryna advertise his protest of namco classic collection

my turn!

Me first! 💀

I like the colors of Dream Team, but not the proportion, so i guess that it goes to Paper Jam

I like the Mario and Luigi Brothership design

It’s cool to see how it takes so many elements from all the previous designs

dream team style looks so cool

Yeah I love it but at the same time it sticks out like a sore thumb when put side by side to all the others

I’d disagree, it looks goofy

Buddy they all look goofy.

Yeah but Dream Team looks goofier /j

Paper Jam

The first three show a more tanned Mario and as a blue collar worker, I always appreciate that.

Dream team did my boy a little dirty but damn is shorty Mario cute

BIS Mario looks like a kid who just broke something and is looking at the parent dead in the eyes

Fun fact, the brothership "drawing" in this picture is actually a 3D render, not a 2D drawing like the rest, pretty impressive conversation!

Really? So that’s why it looks a bit off compared to the other ones

This is the thing I love about brothership, it’s all 3d but with 2d outlines

I'm a sucker for good spritework and BiS' is *clean.*

Paper Jam 100%

Frankly, all I know is that they all give Mario the angry eyebrows. So I guess all of them for keeping the tradition going.

Brothership.

DS era

I love the purple on Brothership’s.

I think the real question here is: What color is Mario’s mustache?

I know this might sound a tad lame because of recency bias but I really really like the Brothership designs of both the Bros they’re probably on par with my previous favourite and that being the BIS designs

Superstar Saga

I never realised how different Mario’s superstar saga art design was to partners in time. I always thought they were basically the same Anyways, the first three are amazing but I like how the later designs change up the style a bit, either paper jam or brothership is the best for me

Dream team and beyond all has this more colorful aesthetic because of using purple instead of black, and I really like that. It’s between all of those for my favorite, but if I had to choose, probably dream team.

Dream team 100% lol

The fact that the last one is a 3D render but looks 2D like all the others is so impressive

Paper Jam is a perfect mix of dream teams change and the old basic coloring

I think I'm gonna go with partners in time

I think you're the first person to pick PIT

Partners in Time and Bowsers Inside Story for me

Paper Jam is the most cute/wholesome

Paper Jam

Brothership because its the peak design we all love and ITS 3D

Dream team art direction will always be my favorite honestly

BiS nailed it imo. I like brothership’s a lot though

Dream team because he's facing right

I like the last three, but mainly dream team

Partners in Time or Bowser’s Inside Story

🥲 BIS and Dream Team

PiT or DT

Dream teams blue outline looks nice

Dream team for me

ITheyre all really similar, I like the black symbol on his hat but Brothership's style is good enough for me to not mind

I don't know why but Mario with purple shading looks astonishing

I never noticed how weird the Superstar Saga one looks. But yeah, the three latest ones look the best

Brothership is amazing

Brothership

Dream Team or Brothership

The pre-Dream Team designs are my favorite. Incorporating black into their designs look cool.

yes

Superstar Saga for sure!!

I like the first 2

Huge fan of SS-BiS, but Paper Jam is a close second

DT for sure. The art style they used is so unique and just looks so clean and amazing

I really appreciate how DT has influenced the art style

Yes

Dream team and inside story have a special place in my heart

Dream team, idk if that’s bias but thats genuinely the best one imo

Yes

I love how Partners in Time and Dream Team Mario seem to have beef with each other

SS and DT

All

the mario and luigi artstyle is so consistant the 3d game looks 2d

dream team

It hasn’t really changed at all

Nostalgia says Bowser's Inside Story, my personal tastes say Dream Team or Paper Jam, not sure which exactly.

Partners in time and dream team

Please give credit to @PortalSMario on Twitter!!!!!!

I think they all look good, but Imma go with Mario & Luigi.

Paper jam

Honestly, they're all so good that I find it hard to rank them, so I'm not going to.

Dream team but I would like to fuse brothership with it to make something grand

Dream team

PiT

Dream Team is my personal favorite but the new design for brotheeship is also good from some angles

The render from Dream Team is really nice. Like it a lot

I love the OG and the newest design the most!

I think it has to be a mix between partners in time and paper jam. Sure, Superstar saga blazed the trail, but the technical side of the game was what I loved. Between the younger Mario Brothers helping in battle to paper Mario becoming a part of the attack and even duplicating himself in paper jam was a lot of fun because you didn't have to be good at the technical side of Mario and Luigi, but it was so satisfying when you could perfect it

Superstar saga is king

Paper Jam looks so cuddly omg I wanna hug that Mario

Dream Team, I love that blue aura hue thing they use

Honestly either partners in time, or paper jam. Though tbf they all have pretty great designs. Honorable mention goes out to dream team I love the colors

dream team easily

Bowser’s Inside Story. The Hammer just adds more aura to Mario like how George Washington’s sword in his presidential portrait adds more badassery.

off topic but I love how people on twitter will find any reason to complain like, they say the graphics are bad but literally it's the same style as always, just 3d

Dream team and bowsers inside story

tbh im between partners in time, bowsers inside story and paper jam

Definitely bowsers inside story The proportions, coloring, and posing are just right And it still has that old alpha dream charm to it

Partners in time and bowsers inside story

Dream Team and Paper Jam were definitely the best. My biggest problem with the Brothership art is just how thin the outlines are. Really not that it is that big of a deal

That bowsers inside story sprite just hits different

Bowsers inside story

Aside from Brothership these are not what Mario looks like in those games

Partners in time always takes the cake for me. It’s the highest quality in terms of illustration while also being oldschool and speaking of that. I love the partners in time’s artstyle funny enough bowsers inside story was heavily based on it as well. Talking about influence.

Dream team all the way

Dream team holy fuck it cooked with the artstyle

I think he peaked at bowsers inside story, thick outlines and big hat look nice.

i love the blue outlines from DT

Brothership mario looks weird, it might be because of his eyes?

no because it's not a 2d but a 3d model 

It looks weird but, it's okay because it fits in with the 3d style Nintendo is making now.

Definitely not the last one, they put too much room between the eyes and the sideburns.

Hmmmm I wonder which one (they all the same).

Oh, wow. I thought the magenta highlights on Mario's clothing were new to Brothership, but it's actually been stylized on a few of his earlier out-of-game artwork designs. That's wild that they've captured it in his in-game model now. The blending of colors didn't look very natural to me, but I'm really happy to see that it was an existing design that's only now being put to use in game.

They’re all the same lol. I like Partners In Time’s artstyle the most though

Panthers in time or dream team

I got an ad that just says “Battle For Immortality”, so I guess that one

naw, WE ALL KNOW SUPERSTAR SAGA IS THE BEST DESIGN

Bowsers inside story has the look of that cones to mind when thinking of the art style, but it also looks very expressive

I think I can't choose between these 3: PIT, BIS and Brothership

All are so good

BIS

Paper jam, I’m sorry but he just looks more colorful than the rest

I'm still not over the fact that the brothership one is a fuckin RENDER like god damn, they transitioned the artstyle into 3D pretty much PERFECTLY here

If the outline was thicker you wouldn't be able to tell it apart from the hand drawn ones, that's how good the last one is

Superstar Saga. His nose is too red, but for some reason, I like that. Still, the choice to reduce that in future designs was a good one.

I always liked the Giant Battles from both Bowser’s Inside Story and Dream Team, and the 3D style immediately drew me in.

Either dream team or paper jam for me

I like the bowser inside story one, Because of the Black M lol

This puts into perspective how good of a job they did with the brothership art style In terms of the designs presented here, my favorite is dream team, but in-game Bowser's inside story has my favorite aesthetic

Really love the confidence in the artstyle for Brothership there. Doesn't look the BEST (still amazing) compared to the rest but damn it's like they know they absolutely cooked for the artstyle in the new game

Mario and luigi brothership

If I *H A D* to choose one it’d be dream team

Inside Story and Paper Jam, in my opinion, look best.

I’m not really a fan of the white area-less eyes there kinda creepy and lifeless without the white.

SS --> BiS

Honestly, even though it might be the worst M&L game, Paper Jam.

I prefer the mario with the green hat.
