William Shakespeare's resume is unparalleled. The famous playwright wrote Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, and King Lear just to name a few. Unfortunately, his genius only went so far. Did he write any plays about Mario, Sonic, or Earthworm Jim? Did he take two-dimensional sprites and turn them into polygons with mixed results? Looks like all Shakespeare knew was ado about nothing. Fortunately for you, we know how to wax poetic about this topic. On today's episode, we look at video game characters and franchises that jumped from 2D to 3D. Shakespeare might have written Macbeth but his head would have exploded if he knew what Mega Man's first foray into 3D was!
