LOL: Misleading Xbox 360 Advertisement

by Chad Lakkis on October 30, 2008

Would I like to win an Xbox 360 console?? Sure!! Wait, what the hell do Super Mario and Yoshi have to do with an Xbox 360? This appears to be a University campus message board, so let’s hope the person who made this isn’t an advertising major. Sheesh.

Shigeru Miyamoto teams up with a trio of video game characters he created in an impressive short illustrated and animated by Newgrounds user, Awkward-Squid.

The concept behind the flash animation, titled “Legend of Miyamoto”, involves Mario, Link, and Donkey Kong helping their video game father make his way through their world. Squid says that the work was rushed a bit due to the fact it was being done as a university assignment, but I think it turned out great.

Check it out after the jump. Read more…

Geeked-Out: Space Invaders Cupcakes

by Chad Lakkis on July 28, 2008

Throwing some game related art on a few tasty cupcakes is surely a double edged sword dipped in frosting. Part of you wants to admire the art, while the other part wants to eat the damn cupcakes.

The 8-bit Space Invaders cupcake display above is the work of Flickr user (and pixel baker), Hello Naomi. Naomi has also used her baking super powers to create Mario and Pac Man cupcakes.

Hey Nintendo, if you are reading this, we totally expect to see Super Mario cupcakes in the waiting area before your next E3 press conference. Just one of the many ways you can make it up to us.

[Thanks Jeff]

by Chad Lakkis on July 10, 2008

Oh no! Look out Mario! Swim for your liiiiiiiiife! The beautifully illustrated “Mario meets Jaws” art above is the brainchild of 24 year-old deviantART user Ian Austin (aka:mostlymade). Kudos to Ian for bringing shrooms of joy to gaming geeks everywhere. Check out Ian’s portfolio site at coroflot.com/mostlymade.
