Love the Kid Zombies; love the weapons: the slingshot, the bat, the garbage can lid as shield!

Nicely done!

Super Mario Meets The Ninja Turtles

Check out this cool piece of retro-inspired artwork by artist Vladimir Gerasimov (“FullPlateMail” on deviantART) called, simply, “A Tragedy,” depicting the unfortunate consequences of an encounter between Super Mario and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:

A Tragedy By Artist Vladimir Gerasimov

(A Terrible Mishap In Manhattan With Super Mario And The Ninja Turtles)

Fun stuff.

I love the expressions on their faces, especially Splinter, and the fact that Mario’s drawn with a bald spot up top the way he used to look back in his pre-Koopa stomping, Donkey Kong days.

And here’s another piece in a similar vein, although I can’t seem to recall who to credit for the piece.

Can anybody help me identify the artist?

Super Mario Ninja Turtles

(Mario's About To Get Stomped On)

Looks like Mario’s back to his villainous ways, a la Donkey Kong Jr.

It’s payback time for the Turtles apparently.

Love the nerdy Koopa with the spectacles!

Must’ve taken forever to make…


Zelda II FPS

June 6th, 2010

Check out this cool video trailer for a playable, fan-made Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link First Person Shooter:

Neat idea taking Link into the FPS realm of gaming a la Samus in Metroid Prime. The old school, 8-bit graphics and sound add to the charm a great deal; I especially like the Title Screen, which at first glance looks just like the original game until the 3D camera begins moving about.

Check out the game itself here up to the first Boss fight for free, although you’ll need to download the Unity Web Player first.
