Super Mario Levels Recreated On Animal Skulls
It's hard to find anyone today who doesn't know what Super Mario Bros. is. The impact Nintendo has had on our lives is apparent as soon as you start looking at all the games that are available today.

Hungry Hungry Hippos: The Custom Mario Inspired Koopa Version
Oh my gosh, remember Hungry Hungry Hippos? That was one of my favorite games when I was little. It was so loud and obnoxious and fun. Hungry Hungry Hippos made marbles useful again, at least for me.

Mario Guitar Is Another Flawless Custom Build
To get a little bit of a retro feeling into my day, I recently set out to play some Duck Hunt on the old Nintendo NES.

An Abstract Pixelated Mario Created With Colored Blocks
I seem to be on a Mario kick today, but there's nothing wrong with that, right? Mario is everyone's favorite plumber, and he will probably continue to be a form of retro inspiration for artists and designers for many years to come. This particular design is very unique though. I'm not an experienced ...

Video Game Characters & Their Fake Facebook Photos
It seems real flesh and blood people aren't the only ones addicted to Facebook these days. Apparently video game characters are too, at least if you ask artist Andrew Golden. His collection of fake Facebook photos below is almost as clever as the comments he's added beneath them.
