Sundry Sunday: The Amazing Circus, and Christmas in Mario Land
Two new items. The short one first, a brief holiday video from pannenkoek, the Mario 64 expert. It isn't about beating the game without pressing the A button, nor is it a deep dive into the game's internals in such a way that you could use it in a computer science course.

Sundry Sunday: Eggpo Speedrun
To recap. Ten years ago, Disney hired the Brothers Chaps, creators of seminal Flash series Homestar Runner, to make for them a series of Flash shorts for Youtube and (I think?) broadcast as bumpers, called Two More Eggs.

At that time Matt and Mike Chapman already had a working relationship with Disney working on their shows Gravity F

Sundry Sunday: The Failed Pilot for the Bubsy Cartoon
Bubsy has been undergoing a bit of a revival lately, with a well-received collection out from Limited Run/Atari and an upcoming 3D platformer that's the talk of the flat-toned polygonal town.

Soon after release hopes were high for Bubsy. Games like Sonic the Hedgehog and... well... Sonic the Hedge

Sunday Sunday: Kirby Air Riders Meme Videos
Aah these were laying around my video list. If I don't post them now I'll never have the chance, so let's get them out of the way.

Made after the first Global Test Ride, where one particular character was very popular.... (1 minute):

Sundry Sunday: Recent Wigglewood
Presenting Wigglewood here is kind of a cheat, I suppose. It has the aesthetic of an old VGA MS-DOS game, with voice acting supplied on CD-ROM, but it's really more of an animated fantasy cartoon. Its DOSness is more of a stylistic choice than something that really connects it with the world of interactive eclectic electronic entertainment (with t

Sundry Sunday: Link Gets Bullied
Waverly Films used to be one of the foremost sketch comedy groups on Youtube, when sketch comedy was pretty common there, along with other groups like Barats & Bereta.

Link Gets Bullied was from MTV's "Gaming Week," a long-forgotten (much like MTV itself) feature where they pandered to game players for seven excruciating days. It's just a

Sundry Sunday: Mario & Luigi’s Vacation Videos

Sundry Sunday: Malo Mart Animation
This week's subject: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

The first LoZ didn't have much ROM space for whimsy, but every Zelda game afterward made sure to spare some space, and time, for goofy characters.

Zelda II had Error and Bagu (a.k.a. "Bug"). Link to the Past had that bat that "cursed" you with a

Sundry Sunday: Sonic Gump
There's a lot of game parody videos out there. Here in the Sundry Sunday department, we realize we could just throw anything up onto the page, and fill the requirement of the form. But we don't want to do that.

A parody should ideally be something more than just, here's a thing, floating around the culture, and we put game character

Sunday Sunday: NATRAPS X FINAL
As I type this it's about an hour and a half until my presentation on the history of Loadstar at Vintage Computing Festival Midwest 2025. I think I'm ready for it, but yeah, am I really? That's the kind of question that sends me into a panic attack.

Since I'm so busy panicking, and because I've been on my feet for most of the day, I'm going to

Sundry Sunday: Susie’s Ideas
So, Deltarune Chapter 4. After the mostly-comical adventures of Kris, Susie and Ralsei through three alternate-world dreamscapes, the fourth got a lot darker with the revelation that there's an entity trying to revive Titans, huge evil monsters that could rip up the world.

During the battle with a Titan near the end of the chapter, a point

Sundry Sunday: Attack of the Pepsimen
Something has come up. I'm no longer at DragonCon. This weird animation (3 minutes), another done in the style of an old DOS game, will have to suffice for this Sunday. I'd have trouble describing it anyway, so I'll burn it today on a day where I really can't describe much of anything.

Sundry Sunday: Sonic Characters Act Like Real Animals
I find this video hilarious. (1 minute) It does feature the vaguely upsetting image of a couple of cartoon anthropomorphs being devoured by predators, who are also cartoon anthropomorphs. Surprisingly safe for work... except for a couple of not-illustrated pieces of trivia.

Sundry Sunday: The Amazing Digital Circus Goes Full Shooter

Sundry Sunday: K. Rool’s Villain Song
In response to Bowser's "Peaches" song from the Super Mario Bros. Movie (the later one, not the 90s one), and a certain Smash Bros. announcement from a few years back, Alex Henderson Animation made a villain's anthem for Donkey Kong's (other) nemesis, King K. Rool, ruler of the Kremlings. My suggestion is to tur

Sundry Sunday: Nathorz’s Sounds of Link and Zelda
Nathorz is an animator who has made several videos that took game character noises and put them into humorous contexts. To date he's made videos with the sounds of Luigi, Kirby, Wario, Yoshi and Donkey Kong. The longest of any of these videos is 1½ minutes, so they're not going to eat up your day.

Sundry Sunday: Master Chief Sings
I'm really dipping into the archives today, from long-time internet funnypeople Waverly Films comes a 15-year-old video hyping from Master Chief's mercifully short singing career. It's just a minute and a half long.

Sundry Sunday: Metal Gear Nonsense
othatsraspberry is a hilarious maker of comics and has a Bluesky account. One of the things they've made comics about is the Metal Gear games, a surpassingly fertile ground for visual weirdness, because the games themselves are often very weird. (FISSION MAILED)
