BOOK

So I was at uni buying this nice new book for some inspiration and a guy who also happened to be buying the same book told me about Cory Arcangel. He takes Nintendo games and consoles, and messes around with them. For example the picture to the right is of an original game on the Nintendo’s NES game console. The picture to the left is what Arcangel decided to do to it.

art......game

Everything has been removed apart from the clouds! He had to tamper with the hard ware and software to make it.


(picture from his web site with instructions and coding as to how to create your own edited games)


This reminds me of some research I did before into homebrew games.




This is a picture from Jun 2, 2006. Someone designed and made this using Nintendo programming and software… very clever…



here is Nintendo’s release of Paper Mario released a few months ago since then 1.55 million copies sold.. ( i have played it... its awesome).

Anyway thats just a side point for now, im looking at corys work, something rather indearing is like me... he cant spell... his blog looks like an old geo cities website too... retro blogging allready??
