Remember that collage of hundreds of videogame stars made to look like Mega Man sprites? Wasn’t that neato keen? What would you say to the same kind of treatment, only in the style of EarthBound / Mother? Would you also approve? You ought to!
Pikosaru, a member of Japanese art community Pixiv and a huge Mother fan, has posted several art style crossovers, including a big, honkin’, wallpaper-sized beast that features such characters as Conker, the viruses from Dr. Mario, and even the Axem Rangers from Super Mario RPG. He also has smaller, game-specific collections for Chrono Trigger, F-Zero, Street Fighter, and others. Even the Gorillaz make an appearance!
My feelings towards these masterpieces are perfectly summed up by the Engrish banner that cuts through the F-Zero piece: “Faster than the sound guys came.” Damn right, I came faster than the sound guys!
