[Vinesauce] Vinny reacts to Elephant Mario

[@timmyreobed5043]

The fact that Mario just straight up turns into an elephant instead of putting on some kind of costume is the big thing that makes this so off putting

[@MandrakeHorse]

They even animated a quick transformation sequence instead of the usual "flickering between before and after" effect

[@lasarousi]

Exactly what I was thinking on the moment. That is the weird part, Mario inflation had happened worse on 65DS

[@thousandsofclowns]

the elephant put on a mario costume

[@ImTheGuy]

@@MandrakeHorse Looking at the trailer, it seems like most, if not all, powerups will have quick transformation sequences. You can see it with the mushroom near the start of the trailer

[@susanaalmeida593]

Yeah, it’d be like if the Tanooki Leaf just turns Mario into an anthropomorphic tanooki instead of just putting him in a cute little costume. Imagine if Nintendo retcons all of the animal-themed power ups into turning characters into humanoid animals instead of giving them costumes.
