i went back a few pages and didn't see this one. did a gaffer do this?

I think it's in the OP.

I first saw it here a couple of days ago so I think it is from a gaffer.

I'm still baffled as to why none of the Nintendo outlets (NCL / NoA / NoE) have done something about this. This thing has gone viral. Pick up on it. Engage with your fans. You are in desperate need of good press. Do SOMETHING.

I love Nintendo's games, but it's quite often that I think the company is run by a bunch of idiots.

Why would you want them to? Look what happened to Banderas. That got ran into the ground so hard. A small acknowledgement from Nintendo would be perfect, and then that's it. Let the meme grow organically and die naturally. Whenever companies try to take advantage of memes, they always get ruined

Meanwhile on Miiverse...

They know.

 

[Calamari41]

More than five people on my Facebook feed have bought a Wii U and Mario Kart because of this meme, and are loving the game and system. All of the them that I have noticed are the type of gamer whose collections consist of the yearly Madden and Call of Duty updates and not much else.

You missed my post I take it?

Can somebody make an iPhone 5 wallpaper version of this?!

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Is he the original poster? I wonder how much he will earn from youtube with this video.

Nah, I've just compiled what I could find in this thread.

 

[Andrew.]

I cant believe this shit got onto Fox News.

Mustve been a really slow day.

 

[Jane Mansfield]

I wonder what Chamillionaire ("Ridin' Dirty") think of all this. Does he still exists?

 

[mantidor]

Suddenly, Nintendo's recent crackdown on youtube videos makes a whole lot of sense.

They knew this was coming.

 

[Domcorleone]

This is one of the funniest threads ive been in for a while. WOW @ all those gifs. Luigi is a killer.

I just looked at the Vevo channel for the Ridin' video. Surprised at what I saw in the top comment.

 

[SnakeSlashRO]

This is the best thing to come out of the Wii U

 

[AdanVC]

It's incredible that all AAA games uses the most advanced facial motion-caps on actors to capture the most believable face reactions on their game characters, yet NONE of them have achieved what Luigi -a cartoon character created with hand made animation- has done with that epic death stare. You go Nintendo and all the animators who worked on MK8!

 

[Chaos17]

Amazing.

EDIT: Also,

What happened ?!
LIMAO XD

 

[SnakeSlashRO]

Nintendo planned this from the start, I tip my hat off to them.

Spoiler

Okay is it really a mean face? Or is it his epic nose, a nose so big that it covers his eyes actually giving him the appearance of angry eyes?

It was a local affiliate, not the channel that we all know and, er, "love."

Awesome. Let's hope Nintendo doesn't kill this meme somehow like Republicans and Doge.

Oh WOW. I need to watch that movie now and imagine Luigi in it.

 

[Principate]

There's no way they didn't know, it's pretty obvious the developers who made this had a lot of fun in doing it.

 

[Jagsrock]

Amazing.

I legit cannot stop laughing. Instant Classic.

 

[PlumCantaloupe]

Here's the GIF (almost) full-length version of the "Hello?" clip. Someone had to do it:

It's really my favorite of the bunch, even beating Luigi's death stares. The choice of music, the timing, the expressions, just perfect.

Wow, seriously take the first Youtube comments advice and watch in 0.25 speed. Mario Kart is one creepy racer.

Of course Nintendo know. This is exactly what they created things like Miiverse and MKTV for!

 

[Exile20]

Nintendo taking advantage of it

 

[XiaNaphryz]

That's not the right facial expression for Luigi though.

Last night I finally finished Watch Dogs and moved on to MK8. Couldn't wait play as Luigi and check out his chilling death stare first hand...

I got lots of good slo-mo shots of Luigi passing opponents and fucking them up... but he never had the awesome cold stare. He looked exactly like he does in that pic. I was pretty bummed.

Neh it's definitely a mean face it's more obvious with a transition.

Can some one make a 1920 x 1080p wallpaper of this for my nexus 5? It'd be greatly appreciated.

It's Not, It seems to come from Reddit. That's the earliest post I can find.


I was just browsing another site, saw it and posted it here.

 

[Ulysses 31]

Nice drawings but I can't help wonder why they drew Luigi with 4 fingers per hand...

 

[massoluk]

Amazing.

EDIT: Also,

Dat Yellow Yoshi.
