I agree with the commercials and that way Mario looked did change a lot.

Mario and Michael have changed about the same amount, but they went in different directions. Mario went with improvement and Michael went with the ,"OH JESUS WHAT IS THAT THING?! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!" direction.

they have changed alot, i remember the console where you the game was a tape, took 2 hours to load, they said if it was to load a cinematic video from metal gear 2, it would take 8 years to load!

20 years ago, I would not have thought that the platform game would have been relegated from its crown as, in my opinion, THE videogame staple to being seen as a relative niche.
