UPDATE!: Used Bin2Jpg program and now pictures are better quality (the brawl ones)

This thread's purpose is to show the transition in visuals using characters in certain situations.

I will be updating this here and there.

Meh, good idea, but you'd be much better off using a Capture Card for this so we can actually see the details. Gl. :)

This isn't particularly useful for comparison.

Brawl looks many, many times better than Melee in actual play. Screenshots do not do it justice.

much better comparison. Melee was a bigger jump in graphics i think.
Yeah that's because the hardware transition from the N64 to the Gamecube > Gamecube to Wii.

You can only get so much better after a while.

there isn't much to say but brawl graphics look like the best out of any wii game i've seen so far, twilight princess is up there, but from the screens and videos i've seen, brawl's graphics really show what capability the wii has for future games.

Like some other people said, it would be better if you had a capture card so we could actually see the transitions instead of what the camerawork will show us =/

if you dont have one, lets just home someone does.

The Smash Bros. graphics just looks better than better in my eyes.
Your eyes must be pretty messed up, if you think we enjoy reading purple text. -.-

I think some Pokemon look better in Melee than in Brawl.
Yeah, I always thought it was funny that there is no real way to improve pokemon graphics, because they are so ambiguous in design. Thus, once you find a way to make them look smooth, there is no real way to add texture, because no one really knows what pokemon/skin ought to look like up close.

Brawl's Graphics look quite nice. A big step up from melee, I would say.

Destiny. The old ganon looks alot better than the new. But nice idea.



muesli :)

I disagree. The new Ganon is a lot more detailed and a much better model.

However, Ganon's actual animation took a nose dive in Brawl. For all the time they spent making other characters really well animated (like DDD), it seems like they slapped Ganon's TP model in and didn't do any work on it.

Really, he animates poorly. He doesn't bend or move dynamically. Really looks pretty bad in action. But at least the model looks good.

I think the Graphics look great. One thing has always bothered me.

it seems clear to me that Wii has to the worst Graphics of any next Gen. systems, and it just bothers me as to how much i notice how bad they are, I'm i just over reacting? eather way i would never give up my Wii for any other system. xbox360 is really cool though.

Thought I'd do another one of these

I can do these for every character if people want. I guess stages and stuff too.

Good idea. I like to see things side-by side so I can compare. I have 2 things to say..

The first screenshot is one of the funniest SSB screenshots I've ever seen.

The second one is awesome.

Link the best of those 4 how much graphics have been improved. The design and amount of details has changed a lot after Melee.

Whoa Twilight Princess was ugly as crap for a wii game. Everybody had a triangle for a hand and a blurry clothes.
