Adventure Time meets Super Mario Bros. 2... again photo

Do you guys remember .Tiff? She used to write for the site. I miss her a lot.

She was the first person to show me how perfectly Cartoon Network's Adventure Time! and Super Mario Bros. 2 fit together. Ever since I first saw this image (and the promo that followed it), I've wanted to play a full-fledged game based in the Adventure Time! universe. Seeing this more detailed sprite sheet (created by the mysterious Adventure Time! Art tumblr contributor IT) only makes my hunger for a Adventure Time! game more intense.

In case you can't tell, the show means a lot to me. For most of my life, I've been waiting for the day when the children who were brought up on videogames would grow up and spread videogame logic to other forms of entertainment. With the release of the Scott Pilgrim comic/movie and shows like Adventure Time!, I feel like that day has finally come.

Some would say it's too much inbreeding for Adventure Time!, a show that's pretty much just a non-playable videogame, to get a videogame adaptation. All I can say is, that inbreeding seems to be working just fine for the Scott Pilgrim game. I think a game would work just as well for Adventure Time! (especially if you got Paul Robertson involved.)

Not every child of game-on-movie-game incest turns out like Street Fighter: The Movie Game (HuuuuuOUUGH!).

That is bloody amazing, as is Adventure Time. As are you for liking that show, while I'm at it.

Just so you know, Jon - Street Fighter: The Movie on Sega Saturn was great. I mean, the graphics were delightfully cheesy, but the gameplay was actually really solid - nothing like that abortion of a game that is the Arcade Street Fighter: The Movie.

Thus far, I've only seen one episode of Adventure Time, but it was great. I wish I could watch it more often, but I'm usually watching Boomerang instead.

Adventure Time is the savior of hope for Cartoon Network. Flapjack helped too.

@ the7k- I think I remember Street Fighter: The Movie on the Saturn. Didn't it have a bunch of new characters, and played almost exactly like Super Turbo?

All I can remember is seeing a live-action Akuma and being like "Whooooooah", but I don't know if that was the arcade game or the Saturn version. I also have the vague recollection of a gentleman named "Sawada" and thinking "You are not Fei Long, but I guess you'll have to do."

I love Adventure Time, because you shouldn't get freaked out about Gnomes and illusions, cause their just Gnomes and illusions. lol

@ epic-koryuken- Isn't that her to the upper left, next to Finn? She's a bit blue, but I think it's her.

Also, anyone watch the show tonight? The guardian angel was AMAZING.

Sorry, but I can't get into Adventure Time. It just doesn't really do it for me.

having never heard of this until now I have to ask. Did I see them jump and then play guitar with two penguin's asses? Awesome.

Is this airing over here in Canada?
