Insane Super Mario World Music Video Proves Androids Are Among Us

The ultimate automatic Super Mario World music video has been discovered, but there's no way it was created by a human being.

Someone, or something, likely an android with similar capabilities to that of Star Trek: The Next Generation's Data, has re-created Queen's Don't Stop Me Now using a Super Mario World mod that plays automatically from beginning to end. These mods are nothing new, but the thing that makes this one so amazing is that it uses four levels playing in tandem. Don't Stop Me Now was represented well by this Super Mario Galaxy music video, but the SNES version has trumped it with technical ability.

I can understand how a regular human could spend lots of time assembling a single Super Mario World level that plays a song, but four levels that work perfectly together and even coincide with each other for the purposes of video, such as writing words with coins between the four screens, are beyond human capability. Putting aside the impending doom that the video heralds, the video is quite artistic, with the mural at the end topping everything off perfectly.

Seriously though, whoever created this video needs to be interrogated as to how far along the infiltration of human society has progressed. Likely, it's already too late, and now the androids are just having fun with us. I guess it's also possible that someone from Japan (the video's apparent origin) spent all of his free moments over a long stretch of time creating a Queen song using Super Mario World, but it's much more probable that we have been infiltrated and will soon be destroyed by beings beyond our comprehension.

Wow. Just wow.

WHAAAT!!!

I never liked these kinds of videos, but FOUR OF THEM!!!...to the music OF QUEEN!!!

Forget androids! Somewhere out there, there's a gigantic nerd who hates us all!

Wow. Just amazing..

If they were using that version, maybe Bill wouldn't have crashed the damn bus!

Perhaps there is a God, and this video was made in His image(s).

Excuse me while I rewire my synapses.

This isn't really a new thing.

Still, it's the first time I've seen someone use four concurrently running games to do something like this, and it helps that I can understand the language being spoken :D

Thanks for sharing, Tom.

eh, not bad, still enjoyed the super mario galaxy one better though

OMFG.
That is all.

Epic.

That was so awesome, to get all four levels working simultaneously is just spectacular.

That was EPIC! The screen actually unified at around 1:55-1:57!

This has a good precedent. I think I might prefer this one simply for sheer length and complexity of sound.

Admittedly it doesn't use four levels simultaneously but both are well within human capabilities. It's similar to singing 4 parts of a song on your own then splicing them together.

EDIT: Ah, scott got in before me.

Gigantic nerd? He/shes the emporer/empress of nerds.

Seriously, the effort this person put in is mind boggling.

It's from Japan, it was probably made in a spare weekend.

I've seen that video before on CollegeHumor, but not with the voices added.(which IMO makes it slightly better)

w-wow... epicness... overload....

Too. . . much. . . awesomeness to take in at once. Wow, androids is right. This was hard enough to watch, I can't think of the amount of time this must have taken to make.

Bricks have been shat.

That. Was. Awesome.

I...
ah...
I think my head exploded from awesomeness.

Excuse me while I clean the mess I made on my computer upon seeing this

I'm sorry but that's just a mass of noise.

i dropped a tear with this vid... amazing... simply amazing, it was masterfully interpretted, i loved it!!

Um... I have no idea what to say

A billion dollars says the dude who made this is asian

This was epic, what else can be said?

ya i don't really get how it's "playing the music" or how any of the onscreen actions/sounds relate to the music

Really? When "racecar" comes up in the lyrics, there's a car on screen. The sounds in the game go in time with the song. Words in the lyrics are spelled out in coins. It's pretty blatant, I'm confused as to how you can't see it.

I know, where the hell do these asians find so much free time, I've barley got time to sit down and enjoy a book let alone choreograph something like this.

And there in lies the problem with videos like these. If on their own they really did sound like the song they are mimicking they wouldn't need to run the original in the background. Its like when you sit around banging out the beat to a song you know on your knee, in your head it sounds just like it, but unless you run the actual song for anyone else listening they won't know what you're doing.

Even so its only at a few points in the video that you really notice w/e is going on in the video matches up with the beat and tune of the original song. Still that doesn't mean I don't enjoy things like this so I can marvel at the planning it takes to pull it off.

wow that is one of the most epic things i have ever seen!
does anyone know how long it took to make this? o.O

My god. Now that is amazing. Cheers whoever did that. Most likely God...

I think it's a coincidence

...I...I just..don't know what..seriously, how in...and...wow...I, *whew*...wow, I can't even...I mean...and how...and...wow...

Okay, now do Bohemian Rhapsody! :D

That was.....amazing. Wha...how...wow.......

I think most of us don't have much to say, the video speaks for itself.
