This thing is huge! Each colored square is 4 x 4 meters. (That's a person on his left foot.) It was in an empty part of a sandbox, too bad I had to delete it...

It's on the NES. It's Super Mario Bros. 1!

Hellll-oooo!

And I play it like every day, along with SMB 2 and 3.

If you like Mario, I have a picture of Mario breakdancing for L$20...I'm also working on a Shine Sprite.

ha! That's pretty cool.

It reminded me of someone who did the same thing with post-it notes.

That's cool. Someone else also made a giant Mario (in RL) like I did, only each square was a painted Super Mario Bros. NES cartridge.

Well EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE me. :p

But as I dont have him on NES (or a nintendo older then SNES)

I'll play what I have lol

It's very good, I do remember someone else doing one like that, only it was about 5m tall and about 300 prim (like yours each pixel was a prim)

Oh! That's what you were doing! I saw you earlier today when all there was was a little bit of the foot. I couldn't imagine what all those flat squares were for.... Alas, RL called and I didn't get a chance to come down and chat (I live just above that sandbox).

Very fun. Will this be up somewhere in SL? I think you should mount it vertically - it would be just awe inspiring that tall!

O.O When I said RL I meant the abbreviation for Real Life!


[edit] Whoops, I just misunderstood what you just said, sorry. Never mind.

And sorry, I already deleted it, since I personally don't own land (I share a part with my friend) and he doesn't have enough prims to support it. I will make many more of these in the future when I have enough money and my own land, only I'll make them smaller...I can make hundreds of Mario sprites!
Thanks for the unintentional inspiration, but I now know what I'm going to be doing in the future...

Oh, yeah, here's the Shine Sprite I made. Pretty cool, huh?

Yeah, the Super Mario Bros. cartridge. It has the exact same Mario, only with a fireball. I didn't have room for the fireball, though.

OMG 8 BIT WONDERS! I love this, next time I'm on a sandbox cruise I look forward to c-c-checkin' it out... what would be cool is if you could animate them... HEY, KURIBO'S SHOE! There's an idea. ^_^

Then what? I still love him...I have Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, and 3, Super Mario Worlds 1 and 2, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario 64 DS, as well as many other games that include Mario but not as a main character.

That was kind of off-topic...do you think my "sprites" would sell well? The problem is, they don't have much of a purpose and they eat prims like crazy.
