Sonic: gets new redesign Alax: M A R I O R E D E S I G N Never change alax, never change

[@Sgt-Wolf]

"BUA!"

[@teenageapple3788]

He did a video about Sonic's redesigns now that I remember

[@chocov1233]

Sonic wasn't redesigned, he was just recerted to how he looked after 1998 (for the most part).

[@powerstar5113]

No he probably made this video before he saw the redizen

[@jerrisatyourwindow]

Chocov 123 I’m not sure if that was a joke or not but that’s literally what redesign means

[@GigaSyntax]

Strikers Mario is basically like that one annoying athletic kid in school

[@ChristopherMoom]

Personally, my favorite Mario redesign is the *_mario pissing design_*

[@Sgt-Wolf]

I think it’s funny that he used an arcade version of the doki doki literature club music when he’s talking about doki doki panic

[@jaysonwingo5925]

The Movie design feels like it could be the next step for a Mario redesign. It’s pretty good.

[@Koko-pm4qq]

NGL SEGA's renders of mario for some reason are always crazy good. It's the most emotion I've ever known Mario to show.

[@moist537]

i like when alax doesn’t talk to the camera a lot and his editing is crisp i know talking to the camera and not editing that much is easier for him but you know... i like it

[@stevengoomba6490]

I absolutely love the 2D promo art and really wish they made a game or something using it. It would be so fun!

[@supernintendofan778]

One of your best videos in a while, hilarious!

[@EnricosUtLP]

Mario Galaxy Mario was so much more slim and nice and I loved it.

[@stee8613]

For some reason when I heard the first music transition I knew Red Hot Chili Peppers was gonna be in it somewhere lol

[@HyperSuck771]

Bro says why does he have a plunger, when Mario is a plumber

[@MASAHIRO-X-]

Super Mario Bros. 2 AKA The Lost Levels had the same sprite as Super Mario Bros. (1985)...because they were both built on the same engine for those of you who didn’t know about Super Mario Bros. 2/The Lost Levels (1986)...and yes that is canonically the real Super Mario Bros. 2 and not Super Mario USA (1988)

[@HardTahc]

the reason the 2000's Mario looks a bit weird is probably because his head and his body look seperate

[@WolfXGamerful]

4:40 Wait...this song sounds familiar. 4:42 WAIT. NO! 4:44 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[@catthem]

"Lets just put Brawl Mario with the rest of the Marios. Does that look right to you?!" Me: "Seems legit" *Bowsette in a group of Bowsers Me: "Looks about right"

[@quinnencrawford9707]

Relaxalax shows his discomfort around mario's feet th whole of the video, but proceeds to use mario barefoot in the outro.

[@loljustacomment2799]

My favourite Mario design is the green tall one

[@MJGaming57_REAL]

Mario in the game cube era looked weird because he was shaded with black

[@squill9446]

5:22 holy shit a Bojack reference!

[@Philiponbread]

I was hoping you'd call out Mario's disgusting Lanky Kong arms from Galaxy : (

[@juicemanjimbo]

Bruh what is that song during the transition slide on 8:04

[@stee8613]

It’s Otherside from Red Hot Chili Peppers

[@togathin7009]

Why tf is Mario’s mustache a different color from his hair?

I found Alax again and i just remembered his as the cool intro guy

[@krossi2214]

Love the Bojack refrence

[@Shad0wed]

Who's Mario? I only know red Luigi.

[@5StarsIsHungry]

Alax deserves more subs tbh

[@thesupernintendokid4012]

here's why a lot of early 2000s mario renders look weird: flat textureless models, gray sclera over pale skin, wide eyed stare into your soul faces, super dark shading and very unsubtle lighting effects. it bugs me that they still use this old renders nowadays, they have way better ones. those scary, eyes way too apart looking peach renders still give me the creeps.

[@RamblyngRobyn]

What if... Pikachu redesigns...

Wait where were those 2d mario kart animatuons from, ive never knew those existed, where can I find them?

[@mrboot4391]

Anyone reilize Mario doesent have socks

[@LealFireball]

Mario needed that render without socks because you can't be successful nowadays without appealing to the foot fetishists. It's an important marketing material.

[@bradens.3125]

"mario has legs now"

[@GreenTopaz213]

Did you changed the thumbnail?

[@tvb5509]

Dont be upset that some of Mario's best renders are from Sega. Lots of Sonic fans say that some of Modern Sonic's best designs are from Smash.

mario did do live action in the 80s and it was marvelous without looking ridicu- well, it didn't look like a cheap youtube job anyway

[@lepidotos]

@Keaton Harris it was a tv show and some people consider it so bad it's good. personally while the actual animation quality was complete garbage it had too much soul and effort and people who actually played the first two super mario bros. games (1989) for me to ever call it bad. oh, and the 1993 film was garbage but possibly enjoyable

[@murrao5820]

"From there we devolve into the Mario Bros. Mario, where we first meet Luigi." Incorrect, as Luigi, contrary to popular belief (so popular, even Nintendo believed it), actually made his debut in the Mario Bros. Game and Watch game released months prior to the arcade game of the same name. That game is the debut of Luigi.

He was probably writing the script for this video, recording it, and editing it before LM3 came out, and got too deep into development to add another section about LM3 Mario. Or he just, y'know, didn't play LM3.

9:46 I see your problem with it and I know EXACTLY what’s wrong. The shading color. They used black to shade. Using black makes it look dull and takes away from the color of the model overall. Current Mario uses bright warm colors, which looks so much better.
