Decisions, Decisions: Mario’s Dilemma
Let’s play a little game. You’ve spent your entire life killing the closest friends of Bowser. But how will you take action when your two most beloved are at the edge of death, and only one can possibly be saved. Neither path will be easy. You’ll have to choose. But be quick, the clock is ticking. Damn you, Jigsaw! Mario super fan Michael Mayne created “Plumber’s Dilemma,” the hardest existential situation Mario has ever encountered. Pauline or Princess Peach? You... Continue reading
Comics of Our Dreams: Batman vs. Donkey Kong
Can Batman outlast Donkey’s flaming barrels? Can Bruce Wayne put aside his devotion to ape conservation in the face of death? Will Robin ever recover from his monkey bite? Next week on The Brave and the Bold! Deviantart user deankotz created this awesome ode to comics that only exist in the mind of a geek. Link [via]
Arcade Game Expressionism
When geekism meets fine art, the results are usually breath-taking. Such is the case with Brock Davis’s Arcade Expressionism pieces, which reduce the 8-bit arcade images to their basic shapes and smudges. Above is Donkey Kong and after the jump you can spot Dig Dug and Missle Command.
Donkey Kong Meets Star Wars
The majesty of Donkey Kong meets the awesomesauce of Return of the Jedi on this awesome Threadless potential tee. Currently stuck in the voting process, this mash-up t-shirt seems like a shoe-in for me, but you never know with those fickle Threadless voters. You know what to do fellow GEARheads. I want this shirt. Make it happen. Vote, vote, vote! Link [via]
Mortal Kombat vs. Donkey Kong
Oh, come on. The Kong man didn’t even put up a fight! In his defense, I guess it’s kinda hard to fight back when your being speared by Scorpion. Link
Soda Donkey Kong Has Sweet Root Beer Nipples
I’m not quite sure how this Donkey Kong soda monster remains standing while simultaneously defying the laws of gravity in several places. In fact, it might be shopped for all I care. All I know is that I have a sudden craving for root beer. Link
Retro Arcade Game Messenger Bags
For people who grew up on games like Pac-Man, Asteroids, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and Super Mario Bros. these Retro Arcade Game Messenger Bags are like a little piece of heaven. I’m a geek, which means I tote a lot of crap around with me wherever I go. My camera, a book or two, my various electronics, a moleskine, so on and so forth. A bag of some sort is essential for getting through the day. I might just have... Continue reading
Donkey Kong Shelves Are Worth the Asymmetry
Asymmetry is a big no-no in the world of interior design. But much like any other rule, there are exceptions. This Donkey Kong shelving idea is definitely not symmetrical, but the dash of gaming culture it adds is SO worth it. Anyway, the asymmetrical parts sort of cancel each other out. Am I right? It brings Donkey Kong from the screen, to the streets, and back to your wall. Link [via]
Stop-Motion Donkey Kong Takes To The Streets
They should have used a real ape. And a real princess. And a real superhero plumber (not you Joe). Video after the jump.
Donkey Kong In Brick Form
Don’t get any ideas with the words ‘brick form’ floating around, you pothead. The bricks I’m talking about are none other than LEGOs. Some guy named Fantastic Rob managed to construct this beautiful homage to the original Donkey Kong video game, complete with flames, barrels and a big ol’ ape sitting atop it all. Ten bucks says it’s easier to beat than the original title, too. Link
