I would think twice before stomping on that goomba!

I would have loved to see a spiked blue shell blast someone away right before they cross the finish line. And a lightening [...]
Aled Lewis (Fatheed on Flickr) transported your favorite old school video game characters into the real world in some impressive photo manipulations.
