I've also heard about this cool movie coming out called Signs, starring Mel Gibson. It's directed by the guy who did Sixth Sense and is about aliens. It should be good.

Might be old, but it's the first time I saw it. I thought it was pretty funny and creative yet simple.

I've seen a few things like this before, heck, back in Highschool this was the art students favorite pass time. We would have DBZish fights, with the aura and everything, I don't think we tried Mario, but I do remember drawing the first level on a black board.

What would make this even more is if they were to do a stop-motion version and make it into an animated GIF. That would be absolutely awesome!

I agree with Ozyman666. Someone give that man a star, and
throw a negative star at anyone whose only contribution is, "OLD! This news is, like, SO old! Mom! Get up here, Joystiq is posting OLD stuff again!"
It's not Crecente. Would be kind of funny if it was.

It was amusing; I haven't seen it. Why do you people assume we want to hear your opinion on how old the news is? Why don't you just not post?

Ironically (or maybe it was intentiona), it highlights what could be done with some simple chroma-keying ("green/blue screening") using the chalkboard or difference matching/subtraction. It wouldn't be much of an extension to convert the concept into stop motion or just full motion using a fixed camera position (which works perfectly for a 2D fighter anyway). It just depends how dedicated you are to the joke.

This is a brazilian photo from 2001. Joystiq at this time is being ridicularized in brazilian videogame forums.
Thank you Joystiq, We brazilians are gratefull for the very OLD news.

But I did think of that. Also, it won't be copycat'd. At least, it wasn't back when Moses saw it and thought, "Man, that's so old!"

I couldn't care less about how old this is. Joystiq is not a news site.

I don't understand you people complaining about its age: I'd seen it looong ago, but it still rocks as much as the first time I saw it! Bet most of the readers hadn't seen it before anyways.
My memory might be cheating on me, but I'm quite sure there where a few other pics.
