Super Mario, Megaman, Super Metroid, Donkey Kong; caught with proof of them running here and there in real life – the world’s gonna be messy! But something tells me that we might enjoy this kind of world! Just glance through these photos and see if you agree with me!

Full chaos after the jump.

Well if you’re also a gamer, we have got some awesome game-related posts dedicated to you!

Advance Wars. The first thing retro game characters will do if they enter real life? Carry out an invasion! Well maybe not, but this piece is just too realistic! (Image Source: RETROnoob)

Super Metroid. It’s the same kind of manipulation but using the reverse method, which utilizes the game’s background instead of its character. (Image Source: BITMOB)

Super Metroid: Going Stealth. So Samus decided to attack in a cool way. Never knew a photo like this can be manipulated in such a cool way. (Image Source: KillingRaptor)

The Turned. What makes this one really epic is that it’s not actually digitally manipulated, but a real life 8-bit cosplay by ChozoBoy! You can view the making of it by visiting the author’s gallery. (Image Source: ChozoBoy)

Samus Vs. Minecraft II. An awesome photo where you can’t differentiate clearly between the 8-bit characters from the real-life characters. I like the weapon that third guy is holding. (Image Source: ChozoBoy)

Reflection

These manipulated works of art did really bring up so much of my memories! I love the days I spent playing these retro games, and I believe all gamers agree that it was the best gaming period [ever] – when most of the games are filled with great gameplay instead of high-end graphic, and boring gameplay. This could be subjective though.

Well, at least you enjoyed these amusing works! Many thanks to those who crafted these out! We do love to see more from you creative guys! Caught a game character in your real life? Show it off to us! We will never get bored with them!
