Did the AI create Mario Junk™️ that had to be blurred out?

[–] Ozzy@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago

Mario dong too powerful for the internet

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Looks like one of those stills from Ren and Stimpy, or Sponge Bob.

[–] victron@programming.dev 8 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah, the "gross-ups" lmao

[–] notst@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I watched Ren and Stimpy daily as a kid. 🥰

"Screenshots taken from various formats"

As a ZX Spectrum owner that phrase is still traumatising.

[–] notst@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

True. However back when these games were state of the art, you somehow were able to imagine the graphics to be better than what was actually on screen. At least that's how it felt to me (played my first games in the early 90s).

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Of course, although in the 90s there were also some that stood out in terms of graphics and soundtrack 10 years ahead of the rest, like MDK, a real gem. Now you can play it for free, right in your browser

https://playclassic.games/games/action-dos-games-online/play-mdk-online/play ( it loads DOS Box)

or download it from GOG or Steam for Windows (€9.99)

Well, I grew up with my first games being in the early 90s, and I'd argue the majority of that era still stand up visually today. Look at Sonic 3, Secret of Mana, Outrun, Turtles in Time, etc. They all still look fantastic. Even many NES and Master System titles still hold up today like Super Mario Bros 3 and Kirby's Adventure.

It was earlier, the Atari 2600 era to be exact, that needed an imagination...

[–] notst@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good examples. In general the earlier 3D games aged particularly poorly. Not only graphically but also when it comes to controls. I think around 2000 things get better, though.

Another young actor's life destroyed by drugs and alcohol (I knew something was fishy about these shrooms.)

Edit: I wish that GIF would play without clicking it (Jerboa). 🤔

Edit 2: Plays fine in Sync at least...

[–] zyratoxx@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

I'm fine since I'm using Liftoff :D

[–] Bene7rddso@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"4K" apparently just means "some higher resolution than pixel art" now

[–] notst@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that botheres me, too. Also when a game is labeled to have "psx graphics" and it just means that they use low res textures without filtering but at the same time it has real time shadows, requires 4GB VRAM and uses bunch of other modern techniques.

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How did it know to put an M on the hat?

[–] whileloop@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Because either the person who made this face the AI some extra prompting, which might explained the other oddities, or this isn't the work of AI at all.

[–] aranym@lemmy.name 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The more I look at this, the more I doubt an AI was involved. Too many aspects of the clothing, body, etc are just way too consistent.

JFC that’s unsettling shit right there. It makes my scalp itch

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do you have one of him naked?

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I promise to make you one tonight.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You are amazing.

I can't wait to beat it to Mario's fat cock.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I get home in about two hours. But soon friend!

New Mario X The Last of Us crossover.

Why is the crotch greyed out?

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Mario is suffering from incontinence these days. Dude is well over 70 years old maybe 80. He was a master plumber back in the early to mid 70s, so he would have been 25 bach then, at least.

[–] smellythief@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is this like when porn performers complained about 4K because you could see their imperfections?

[–] Toast@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

They did that?

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Turns out all that jumping about in the sewers was not the best for Mario’s health

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Take it back!!

[–] Disgustoid@startrek.website 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I see AI still can't render hands well. Apparently pixelated feet give it problems too, judging from Mario's nightmare fuel feet.

Someone needs to make a ROM hack out of this lol

[–] hakase@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I'd say this pretty accurately shows the current state of video game remakes.

Go back, go back!

Thanks, I hate it.

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

can we get a nsfw tag, that was very disturbing.

[–] sirico@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

Ah another corrupted by the blight of Nurgule
