I received my Bachelor’s Degree from the University of California, Berkeley upon completing irrationally rigorous levels of Sudoku. In pen. I pride myself in a variety of minor, personal nuances, including my animosity towards wearing pants and my adamant refusal to comb my hair. I have a steady level of accomplishments that strengthen my metaphorical "manhood": (1) I’ve completed Super Mario World in 13 minutes and 26 seconds, (2) I’ve squatted 135 pounds, and (3) I have to omit this pornographic tidbit for "professional" reasons, but you guys know the deal. I also like to cook and clean and my Internet only works in the kitchen.

    I think my favorites are either Turnip Murder or the last untitled one.

  6. Thanks for sharing these with us Jamie. I like the Donkey Kong and Mario haha it’s so funny. I am wondering what kind of graphic software they used to make these graphics? I always want to learn how to make these graphics. They just look so cool. Thanks again :)

    I gotta say, the Super Mario World one with the Air Force One wearing Yoshi is great…but the Star Wars ones are boss.

    Oh How many “Warp Zones” I must have explored and How many Gold coins I must have collected and how many fire balls from the dragon I must have ducked? When I was younger I used to play Mario Bros. till the point that I get a seizure. Mario Bros. is a one of a kind concept.

    Super Mario World in 13 minutes and 26 seconds. Now thats some feat!!!!

    Life can be like a Video Game!

  12. I’m luvin’ it! My first Gameboy Game was Warrior Land featuring yours truly. It’s still as adictive now as it was then. One of Nintendo’s hero brands, our pizza luvvie still cuts a swagger against games like Grand Theft Auto and shoot-em-ups; appealing to all ages and genders. Nice tribute post. Think I’ll hunt around the attic for my old Gameboy :-)

  13. raitucarp says:

    Mario is source idea for all people who like it,

    actually I like super mario too, especially the mushroom, who is he ?

  14. Fenster says:

    Haha, I love Mario, now I am inspired to draw my own Mario :)

  15. Thomas says:

    I remember drawing Mario as a kid in school, but this is real art! I’m very impressed!

  16. these are totally f’ing amazing. super mario world is probably the funniest, but Untitled by Malinko is the most impressive.

  17. mr nice guy says:

    I also love Mario. In fact, I am really addicted to Super Mario Nintendo version. I have defeated all including the Lordie witch and save the princess. Of course Luigi is my partner then.

    ESSA JAMIE É UMA DELI…RSS

  28. Josh says:

    Yeah, this has been one of those things over at 4chan for a while now. While I can appreciate someone furthering the meme, it’s all just the same old pictures. I do appreciate you linking the original artists though.

  29. eumesmo says:

    Olá jamie, te achei uma delícia, adoraria chupar sua buceta e comer sua bundinha

  30. That first picture is really awesome. I guess it would look something like that in the real world!

  31. Those are awesome! We have made a pixel art tribute to Mario Bros in the front of our digital engagement agency, in Sao Paulo – Brazil. =)
    For the ones curious: http://www.foreplay.com.br/blog/2009/05/06/power-up/

    Cheers to all and long live the tubulators! =)

I have a steady level of accomplishments that lengthen my metaphorical penis: (1) I’ve completed Super Mario World in 13 minutes and 26 seconds, (2) I’ve squatted 135 pounds, and (3) I’ve probably watched more porn in high school than Redtube will ever have sufficient bandwidth for. I also like to cook and clean and my Internet only works in the kitchen.

    I think I love you haha

    Man, I told Yoshi to stay of the ‘roids. And DK to keep going to his AA meetings. I am disappointed.

  38. Jordan says:

    I find it fascinating seeing something as simple as the 8bit mario, transformed into an artists interpretation. And almost all of them were spot on.
