I was hoping they'd go into what inspirations Wind Waker did have if not European. The houses on Outset and other islands are clearly Polynesian style and there's a clear Incan inspiration for Gohdan but I don't know much more than that. Honestly Wind Waker isn't a game I thought of as being very non-European in the first place, considering that you ride around in a Viking-style boat to a soundtrack the devs themselves said came from Irish music.

They used the gun sprite because it looked good and they had it laying around. There are a lot of times in lighting that you use a wrong/random image because it looks good enough and takes infinitely less effort. really doesnt matter for n64, but even in modern games, unless your doing realistic reflections/lighting then often times a random image wwith somewhat similar features (a forest is rectangles, a gun is rectangles) then itll probably look fine. I think there was an instance of an image of actual dog poop being used in a spongebob game for a lamp or something like that. sometimes you just click a few buttons and see what stuff looks like and it just works well enough ya dont put in effort.

@TheRealBlazingDiamond Жыл бұрын

As someone who's studying 3D modeling and animation, this is extremely accurate and probably was exactly what happened. Now, onto the final question: _where does this texture come from?_

@the-NightStar Жыл бұрын

this is pretty much correct, yes. The only reason fans think this is even remotely interesting because they look at the image and go "LOL GUN HAHAHA FUNNY", but a developer absolutely doesn't think like that. To them it is 100% just a random asset. It really shows a clear divide of thinking between how a creator sees things and how an audience does.

Like in how the SNES perfected 8 bit concepts and added to them with high fidelity graphics, the GameCube took the first 3D try for many concepts and ironed them out to make them even better, and look good while doing it. I think every Nintendo franchise that has an entry on the GameCube - the GameCube entry is my favorite in the series.

Photoshopper here The machine gun probably has no meaning nor reference to anything Nintendo related. As a photoshopper myself, I've used countless of stretched out images to give a reflection or change the color of an image appropriately to give a more natural look to an image. Most plausible answer, developers looked at a similar image and adjusted the colors and saved time by stretching an image instead of having to do it themselves which most likely wouldn't have come out as natural. Probably don't bother in trying to make sense or think it's an Easter egg. It's just to save time since stretching an image is ALOT easier and faster than having to color it themselves. Specially with 300 trophies to render.

Plus it gave us so many great games: Mario Sunshine is my favourite 3D Mario platformer, Double Dash is my second favourite Mario Kart, some of the Mario Parties are ok and Luigi's Mansion is one of the all time best spinoffs. Don't get the love for The Thousand Year Door though.
