Yeah, granted FMV cut-scenes in video games weren’t common, but games like Don Bluth’s “Dragon’s Lair,” and the intro/ending to “Sonic CD” show you can have good quality animation in video game cut-scenes even back then.
At least, we got Youtube Poop parody material out of the CD-I Mario/Zelda game’s notorious cut-scenes.
I’d have to agree, The only bad things I saw from Hotel Mario was the cutscenes. The voice actors were okay, but the cutscenes themselves were really goofy and out of place.
I wouldn’t know as I never played them.
Some say “Hotel Mario” wasn’t as bad as the Zelda CD-I games though.
That doesn’t mean CD-i games were ALL bad, right?
Well, it was a puzzle Sonic game, (“Sonic Eraser”) not something you see often. Would’ve been funny if it had cheesy cinama-scenes to.
I kinda liked “Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine” though. (The Game Gear version is better due to it’s exclusive puzzle-mode.)
Another cancelled game was a second Mario game, “Super Mario’s Wacky Worlds” intended to play more like SMW, rather then “Hotel Mario.” (But proved a bit to difficult to pull on the CD-I surprisingly. The SNES allows more sprites, and special-effects on-screen then the CD-I did according to the Wiki entry on the game. So it was difficult to make a more-traditional Mario game for the system.)
I bet it’s because they were scared it’s gonna be worse than the CD-i Zelda games.
Surprisingly for such an ill-fated system, it had quite a few actually. (Even more then Virtual Boy had.) Including a Tetris game, adaptions of Don Bluth’s famed “Dragon’s Lair,” and “Space Ace” arcade games, (let’s hope they kept the original animation for those games) a compilation of classic Namco games, Lemmings, Jeopardy, Brain Dead 13, and oddly a game titled ”The Joy of Sex.“
Also, apparently, according to the list a Sonic game was planned to be licensed to the CD-I, but cancelled.
(And the cheesy cinama-scenes that the CD-I was known for.)
They’re breeding pony people now!
