Fused King Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 'Super Stupid Bros.' How do you come up with this stuff, it's pure comedy gold:D
Sprout Posted December 21, 2009 Author Posted December 21, 2009 Note to self: save regularly, because powercuts aren't your friend. Damn snow. =P Hopefully have another two up this evening (no promises though), but for now here's number nineteen! I have a top hat of my own. Not quite as magnificent as Professor Layton's, but maybe one day I'll show it off. Also, I couldn't find Layton sprites anywhere on the interweb! I had to painfully get these out from the game myself. Twice. =P
Serebii Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 That.Is.AWESOME I was not expecting a Layton reference haha
Jonnas Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Man, that was awesome. And is that Hyrule Castle from Super Smash Bros?
Retro_Link Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 What game is Castle B from, one of the Mario&Luigi games? Fantastic episode Sprout!!
Fused King Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 What game is Castle B from, one of the Mario&Luigi games? Fantastic episode Sprout!! It almost looks like Bowser's Castle from a Mario Party game. Not sure if there ever was one in it though.....
Serebii Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 It's Bowser's castle from New Super Mario Bros
Nintendohnut Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 That, Sprout, is literally genius. I loved all of the references to things he says in the games as well! "Critical eating is the key to success" is so awesome. Keep it up!
Sprout Posted December 22, 2009 Author Posted December 22, 2009 We've hit the twenty comic mark at last! Two days late, but at least the updates are still goin' this year. =P It was a toss between spicy chicken and cake or fiery drumsticks in regards to what food Bowser enjoyed. Eitherway, both are a reference to Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Yeah, I don't actually have anything interesting to say... Though I never do, really. =P
Tphi Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 Four to go! Almost there dude But just three days til Xmas!
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 That sig is absolute genious. True. It is beyond awesome.
Sprout Posted December 23, 2009 Author Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) In the event that this doesn't get completed by tomorrow, updates for the last few will commence around the 28th. In the meantime, here's comic number twenty one. Super Mario Bros. will turn 25 next year. I should plan something for that. =P Edited December 23, 2009 by Sprout
Jonnas Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Man, I really have to play Bowser's Inside Story. Meanwhile, the comic is still great.
Sprout Posted December 24, 2009 Author Posted December 24, 2009 As said yesterday, if I don't get any done today, the updates for the last couple of comics should resume again on December 28th. For now, here's comic number 22! I always love numbers like this.... didn't I already say that...? Well my comics wouldn't be complete without a blatant Smash Bros. reference, would it? =P
mr_bogus Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Also made me think of Super Paper Mario, like using the 3rd dimension to make him fall off the 2D platform
Jonnas Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 So DK at the beginning wasn't just a throwaway joke? Brilliant! And Sakurai quotage always makes my day. Here's to a Happy Christmas, Sprout!
darksnowman Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Diddy Kong mixed with Daisy... what a gaming combo!
Sprout Posted December 24, 2009 Author Posted December 24, 2009 Surprise! I've got comic twenty three completified. If you're wondering why Luigi is in a bubble, you haven't played New Super Mario Bros. Wii in multiplayer. =P One more comic to go! And here's number twenty four! I'm finally caught up. =P (Oh, and sorry if this doesn't automerge) And with this, A Gift from Mario is complete. Well, there might be a bonus comic in time for new year, but as far as the story goes, we've achieved completion. I'd like to thank everyone for reading and for putting up with me during this month. And since I have a tendency to disappear, if he's reading, I'd like to thank / nando / now for nominating me for best signature and avatar for the N-E Awards 2009 (and additional thanks to any of those who voted for me as well). Since the bonus comic will be a bit later than usual, I should probably make up for it somehow... Well, I guess I can share what I've been up to, and what I might have in mind in the future. Though, bear in mind anything I say isn't guaranteed... First off, there's N-Sprites, which would basically be a sprite comic that'd update throughout the year. It likely wouldn't have storylines, incase I give up midway through. Still, if there's interest, I'd likely do it. Secondly, for Christmas I've gotten a Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch. Though I'm not sure just what I'd like to do with it specifically, maybe in the future you might see a bit more than sprite comics. I certainly won't be replacing n-comic though. =P Finally, one more thing I'd like to share with you. I was working on this a little before this year's advent comic, just for a bit of fun. "What if N-Europe was a videogame?" Yes, The backrounds are from Super Paper Mario From left to right: ReZourceman Sprout (yay ego) Eenuh Dannyboy-the-Dane (complete with Matrix outfit) Coolness Bears Just gonna say, I'm not actually making a videogame. I do have a videogame concept, but I know that I would never follow through with it, plus I lack the computer knowledge to make such a thing. No, I just wanted to share some stuff I "drew" with you. =P Okay! I think I've ran out of things to say now. Once again, thank you to everyone who read, made comments and displayed their thanks. I hope I've managed to entertain you for the duration of the comic, and it's been a great pleasure to make it for you all. And bar the potential bonus comic, I shall now disappear from posting once moooore! Merry Christmas. Steven "Sprout" Maidens
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Great ending, Sprout! And pretty much on time! Good job! Oh, and I'm terrribly flattered to have been made into a sprite. I'm not worthy at all.
Nintendohnut Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: You, sir, are a genius. That was awesome. Please just do more comics - the N-Sprites sounds like an awesome idea
Tphi Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Sprout thanks once again for all your hard work this year. And you're back up to date! I will get these up on the main site asap. Hopefully your creative juices will allow for more N-Sprites over the year.. and another Xmas comic in another twelve months!
Eenuh Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Yay, well done on finishing the comic Maidens! Knew you could do it. =) Merry Christmas to you!
