the trees look atrocious compared to the originals. everything in the new one is just boring or ugly or both.
i really just do not understand why they threw away the illustrated look just to emulate pre-rendered sprites on a console that can easily handle 3D models. they're throwing away a ton of what were conscious decisions in the originals in favor of changes that just don't make sense or don't work.
Look at the background, there's nothing resembling the original other than the placement of the castle. No hills, no trees, no mountains - just a sickly yellow plain with some barely visible NSMB hills. It probably boils down to Beanbean vs. Mushroom Kingdom, but the background alone shows a worrying lack of effort
