Dragon Quest X

yes let us judge a game by its ONE pre beta screen shot.......no really....go ahead.......

Hey mommy, i spot a nintendo fanboy bent out of shape because some people don't like a game's art style. The travesty!

Sorry to burst a big bubble here but you don't need more than a screenshot (and plenty video footage) to judge a game's character design, especially considering how well known (and incredibly fossilized) the style of the character designer in question is. The game is horribly cartoonish on the wii, and you can bet your monthly wages for a year that it won't change style on the Wii U. It'll have higher resolution textures, maybe the cel shading will be a tad more refined, but there's only so far you can bring cel shading, especially when you have to mantain parity of content.

If i want cel shading, I'll take a game with cel shading supported by good character design (like the one by Kosuke Fujishima and Mutsumi Inomata in Tales of Xillia, both completely obliterate toriyama in artistry, style and appeal), not this piece of crap that seem to be designed to appease five year olds.
