// Stage Debut

Developed as a follow up to the Japan-only Mario Artist: Talent Studio for the Nintendo 64DD, it involved taking a picture of the player with a Game Boy Advance, transferring it to the Gamecube, and having it mapped over a cartoonish character model's face. The game was never released, but some aspects were reworked into concepts used for the Wii's Mii and Wii Sports years later.
