Fusion came out approximately the same time as Prime, so it should be after original Smash Bros Samus.

DorkimusPrime

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> The early samus ones look like homo-sapian evolution. And sonic became anorexic or something, because he is damn scrawny in those last 2 ones.

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> what on earth is that ugly peach model from? (the one immediately before her Brawl appearance.) It's not her from Melee, or from Sunshine, so dear sweet lord, what happened to her?

@excel_excel: Pit would have had three stages because of his GameBoy title.

big whoop I say! It's still pretty great to look back at it all :P

@CallMeRotten: It's creepy at how right you are! O_O

Gorp900

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> Wow, the Donkey Kong one is so limited and screwed up. We get three iterations of the arcade DK, but his appearances in the Game and Watch series (where there is much more notable progression) are left out. A sprite from Mario Basketball is all of a sudden placed between the Arcade DK and Rare DK sprites (The DS came out before the SNES?), the cel shaded Donkey Konga model and the Melee model aren't there, and theres absolutely no reference anything Paon did in the franchise.
These sorts of mistakes seem to occur in every other timeline as well.

If you're going to do something, at least do it right.

Lockenator

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> My only complaint is the water mark on every image. If someone were going to bite part of it, wouldn't they go for the original? I try not to hate, but this makes it look like D4N thinks he created each of those images with no hint at copyright love whatsoever.

No, I'm pretty sure they got it right. I kinda remember the second gen pikachu looking kinda weird compared to the first one. I could be wrong, though.

It is a mystery.


Channing

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> Isn't the second Pikachu model supposed to be first? Just looking at art alone it appears the the second model is not quite as well drawn. Also, i seem to remember this vaugeness about Pikachu's model that was that in the original red and blue, that Pikachu looked quite fat.

Termisk8er

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @urbanLAN: ...No, stupid.

That said, I was going to post something bad about the image, but this one was done a little better than I thought. Normally you see these things and they have the GBA versions next to the SNES versions and it's just stupid, but this one suprisingly didn't do that. Although, I am going to complain about the inclusion of the completely different characters included. Like having Wind Waker Link with Regular Link, sure, they're both Link, but I consider them completely different characters. And Giga-Bowser is 100% a different character than Bowser and has no place in that image. Same for Zero-Suit Samus.

One last thing. Notice how all the final pictures are from promo/reference/whatever images? The earlier images are in game graphics, yet the newer ones aren't. So, overall, it looks nice, but if you're looking for accuracy...it's certainly not here.

TheDoomer

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> Come on, surely SOMEONE is able to do one of these and actually keep them in the correct chronological order, regardless of any 3D-2D backtracking.

GOOR

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @TOCATL: You said "cave's drawings." Not "cave drawings." He's making fun of your grammer...which is why he intentionally screwed his up in his response.

Cogito

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @Erwin: Im not joking i saw a couple drawings of a lions and they where almost perfect, borderline rennaisance, i cant draw like that, sure a skilled drawer could, but the average modern human would have a lot of trouble trying to match those draws...

TOCATL

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> zelda is missing minish cap which is equally distant from the rest.

@manabu: im w/manabu. this or something a little better spaced out would be an awesome poster.

Demonbird

@Demonbird: Except for Link. Wind Waker came out after SSBM.

Erwin

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> Why has Nintendo dialed up the "cuteness" on Yoshi so far? In thier attempts to make him even more lovable, he's become an atrocity I would expect to see on some godawful Saturday morning cartoon for preschoolers. I want my green dinosaur back, dammit!

Not only that, but Luigi has become a certified sissy. He used to be Mario's equal (he's even been the better jumper on a few occasions) and now he's panicked and running like a little girl. Did they really intend to do this with his character all along?

Personal fan of the Samus evolution, and the Donkey Kong evolution. Love both sets of pics. Also, using Giga-Bowser as the final picis awesome. That's Bowser in megabadass state, the way he was supposed to be all along...a giant, spiked, fire breathing turtle that looks like he was ripped straight out of a Godzilla movie.

Cogito

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @Trowble (XBL/PSN): You must be crazy.
@TOCATL: SSB on DS would be pretty cool. Eh, maybe I'm just bitter over the fact that they left out the Yoshi's Story sprite. Although, I'm very pleased at the inclusion of Link from Link's Awakening.
And weres was these good cave's draws? I bet their from the whest. but Could they relly be better then the one by homo-sapiens like I and you?

Erwin

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @Mikazukinoyaiba: Actually these are just in chronological order. His links are accurate in that respect. The brawl WW link was a new sprite made after the TP one.

Demonbird

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> Mmmm peach~

Witzbold

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> Just a world of differences with the Kirbies there.

Nobuyuki

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @Erwin: They are not that bad, i just hope someone at nintendo thinks that a SSB in the DS is a good idea, that would sell even more DS units, and overload more the wifi connection XD...
Also, some cave draws are pretty good, some dont, but i once saw ones that where beyond the skill of the average modern homo-sapiens sapiens...


TOCATL

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> How the hell does Zero Suit Samus fit at the end of that line up? It should either not show her outside the armor,or show a seperate time line that starts with her bikini-wearing NES sprite.

kidnicky

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> @Mikazukinoyaiba: ...What?

It's not the evolution of toon link, it's just the evolution of link, Period. Both toon and "normal." It's kind of retarded, yeah, but I guess he just didn't want to give what is ostensibly a single character two different chains. That'd be unfair, or something.

Erwin

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> YesyesyesyesYES for using the Sonic Pocket Adventure (For the Neo Geo Pocket Color) sprite. Here's the only problem, though- SPA came out AFTER Sonic R- notice the green eyes. I think it came out after Sonic Adventure 1 as well... yeah, not placed right, but still, that game deserves some credit.

Deaf Mute

]]> <![CDATA[From Pixel To Polygon: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Stars Evolved... Again!]]> He made a mistake with using TP Link and SSBM (OoT Link) as part of the evolution chain of Toon Link.

It should have been straight from Majora's Mask Link to Toon Link. Twilight Princess Link (who came after the Wind Waker) obviously had nothing to do with the evolution of that character's design.

Deaf Mute
