Hot on the heels of Paper Mario comes Nintendo’s next big franchise… Cloth Mario?
Perpetuating the current deluge of Mario-themed handicrafts, Alice of Eat A Duck I Must has painstakingly recreated these NES-era Super Mario Bros characters in felt, lovingly preserving all of their 8-bit pixel-y goodness in the process.
We’re guessing she’s still working on the flagpole and the castle…
MagnetGames Esty shop is all kinds of awesome, but these SMB sprites take the biscuit…

”What has occurred in the world of Lego?” roared the maniacal hoards…
Well, Entertainment Earth has made these fantastic Watchmen Kubricks,
What? Kubricks don’t count? Damn, you Lego folks are hard to please…
Well, here they are anyway…
they come in two limited edition sets (each $19) and can be preordered now…
Lego peripherals are somewhat ubiquitous, but this USB hub is pretty subtle…

Arkov.Adorable has made this amazingly small NES…

Sonic the Hedgehog’s overwhelming influence on the world of pop continues with this superb mash-up by Afriquedeluxe, in which he juxtaposes the classic Sonic 1 Green Hill Zone theme with Fergie’s 2007 single Glamourous.
Not only is it a substantial improvement over the original, it’s also possibly the most exciting development to hit the R&B/pop scene since Janet Jackson nicked the melody from Bridge Zone for her 1997 hit Together Again.
Here’s a mindbending model by Mandy Smith constructed from paper, glue and foamboard…
Incidentally, Mandy was the assistant art director of this video for the highly underrated Ben Jacobs, aka Max Tundra:
This superb WarioWare: Made in Ore microgame ingeniously reprises the excellent Bit.Trip.Beat. If you’re unfamiliar with Made in Ore, it’s a WarioWare title which enables the creation of your own microgames, complete with custom graphics and music.
Let’s hope they don’t spend too long localising it…

Stem Cell guru Robert Lanza just published an interesting book about Biocentric universe theory (the universe is created by life not the other way around).
