...........*gasps for breath.*

Those are just.........wow. I'm not sure what to say. My favorite was 'For Princess.'

Interesting.

I got a kick out of "Dig Dug's Funeral", but I also thought "For Princess" was infinitely cool. As for "Power-Up", I'd say that is definitely the weirdest one of the bunch.

"For Princess" is my favorite as well.  And I got a kick out of "The Ugly Truth About Warp Tunnels".

Yeah. Some of those I find rather disturbing (not all of them, though).

Opps.  Thanks.  It's fixed now. 

I'm an idiot.  After viewing the first page I click the images at the bottom without noticing that there was a second page.  When I saw the extra image (the winner) I wondered why it was included.  <Napoleon Dynamite>Idiot!</Napoleon Dynamite>

Guy in "Painacia" looks like MegaByte with stubble. Am I wrong?

The first one is my fav.

I enjoy "The Ugly Truth About Warp Tunnels" and the winning piece, but the rest are just good-looking gimmicks.

I can just see Bowser going "What the crap?  I mean, literally!  What the crap?!"

For some reason I can't stop laughing at "For Princess". It's a muscular, real serious looking Mario with hairy arms ready to punch out Bowser. Oh, and Bowser looks like a freaking T-Rex. Whats not to laugh?

I think "For Princess" is really cool.  I kind of like Mario's serious look.

I like how he's about to give Bowser a good smack in the kisser.

Wow!  Those are really radical.  Not only do they include Mario, but they include a psychedelic uniqueness to them, I should deffinatly join this contest.  I have some great works of my own that might have a chance.

Yeah, I'm deffinatly joining next years competition, I'm already talking to one of the staff, apparently there is no real way you cant get in.  Unless of coarse you draw like a 2 year old... well, maybe.......

That one entitled 'Power-up' is freakin scary.

The latest NP has a big feature on the contest.  Included is this month's pull-out poster:  a two-sided barrage of [edit] Nintendo art.

The way Gabe Swarr drew Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and just about everyone else was very humorous, and I got a hoot out of the giant koopa staring Mario down.

(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y17/Bucketeer/scratchhead.gif)  Erm... Does anyone know what I really said?  I'm trying to remember, but I'm drawing a blank... "Barrage" isn't my style, but I might have typed it (doubtful).  I know I said "two-sided" something with "Nintendo art" at the end.  I'm pretty sure it wasn't "two-sided $*#~%! of Nintendo art"... So, I don't know why it was changed.  This is killing me.
