Cats love to be fed to Chain Chomps
Chain Chomps are common enemies from Mario. They first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 and, as it turns out, cats love to crawl inside their gaping mouths and snuggle down. Okay, this particular Chain Chomp isn’t your traditional Mario enemy. This Chain Chomp is a custom made bed by Catastrophic Creations. Oh yes, Catastrophic […]
Mad Max: Fury Road meets Mario Kart mashup is a work of art
A great idea that’s been brought to life with skill and imagination. This is Mario Kart: Fury Road – a parody trailer – and it brings the crazy driving of Mario Kart to life with the crazy driving of Mad Max. I shall call it Mad Mario. What’s your favourite part?
Bob-OMB t-shirt
Bob-OMB is a limited t-shirt design by Mark Chilcott. You can pick it up, while stocks last, from Cult Collective. There are only 100. You’ll get a signed and numbered card to mark your purchase. I like t-shirts like this but then wonder whether I should wear them or not. Is it really a t-shirt […]

I’m not a fan of eating mushrooms and I certainly wouldn’t put them on cake. That said; this Super Mario World cake looks good enough to eat and it’s the mushroom that steals the show. This is a cake that watches you. Via Geek Art Gallery.
Super Smash Wars: Star Wars meets Nintendo in this mashup parody
May the triforce be with you. How many Nintendo characters can you spot? There are game references and hidden sections a plenty in James Farr’s clever animated Super Smash Wars. This is Star Wars as it might have been if Nintendo had wanted to throw a bunch of their favourite characters into a space opera. […]
Is this the ultimate Nintendo orchestra medley?
This is The String Player Gamer’s opus. An orchestral cover of many of your favourite classic Nintendo tunes. Nicely, the medley doesn’t linger too long on any one tune so it’s fairly fast paced and there’s plenty of variety. The musical nerd also manages to blend the tunes together skilfully and collection works as a […]
