Nintendo has released a new 3D render for their flagship character Mario.

The render was shared by Nintendo of Spain, and at first glance looks like any other 3D rendition of the plumber. As shown by @Gold3Conner on Twitter however, there are some key differences, mainly visible in the new render’s textures.

You can check out the comparison with past Mario renders below:

I always find it kinda cool how they update already made renders, while it can fall under the trappings of a lot of renders feeling the same (Sonic kinda has this issue as well) but I always find it cool that it shows how much they refined the character over the years pic.twitter.com/GSdfZRjXaM
