Mario: Game Over (2007)

Serving as Nintendo’s mascot and the main protagonist of the series, Mario has appeared in over 200 video games since his creation in 1981. Let's look at what remix culture does to our precious nostalgia... :)

Here is a short movie created with some animation features, a good example for remix culture and early video games. Mario video games series are great nostalgia for many of us. The short movie above, "Mario: Game Over" was nominated for Best Comedy Video of 2007 in the Youtube Awards. It's quiet simple and doesn't have a happy ending, but they have a serious production team, and you need to see how many views they got on YouTube: 21,880,046 views

People watch these things! Really, they do! Me too...
