No, they are different. So's the hair.
The clothes and the hair aren't THAT different. The MAIN difference in the clothing is Young Isaac's enormous cape that HIDES most of his clothes, and what little you do see looks a LOT like older Isaac. And the hair isn't THAT much different. Small changes in hair is hardly worth the extra effort for changing a character's costume.
What you're suggesting is like making Young Link or Toon Link an alternate costume for Link. Giving his older self features of his younger self doesn't make sense because he never had those features as his older self. And don't even bother mentioning how Link can have an old or young version, because there's a big difference:
-Link, regardless of the age of his incarnation, is the triumphant hero of the story. Younger versions of Link have gone through their whole games and won.
-Young Isaac, despite being brave, is ultimately weak and naive. The extent of his efforts is pretty much almost getting brutally murdered by a pair of violent magicians. Not very heroic, is it?
Righto, so Young Isaac can't be Isaac's alt...why, exactly?
Is it too minor of a change, or what? Because I'm damn sure that some of these other alts are also, by those standards, too minor.
Like say, how all of the pokemon's alts are too simple.
Y'know, Here's an idea for alts for Pokemon; Their older/younger evolutionary forms. Bulbasaur for Ivysaur, Wartortle for Squirtle, Wigglytuff for Jigglypuff, Raichu for Pikachu, Riolu(A particularly tall one) for Lucario, and um...Charcoal for Charizard?()
And don't give me any of that different character bullcrap, because it's the same character just older/younger. It works for Ike, doesn't it(Alt is Radiant Dawn Ike, Also known as OLDER IKE)? I don't have a clue for Deoxys though. Does his movelist make use of the different forms? Otherwise I'd suggest one of those.
Evolved/prevolved forms of Pokemon are completely different from their current forms. What are you going on about? That comparison doesn't work with humans.
