Smash!
by Steve Napierski
YES!! Another animated music video from the comedic supergroup Starbomb. This is from their second album entitled "Player Select" that was just released yesterday. It's the animated version of their song Smash!. Enjoy!

Looks like someone else made a Throne of Games. This one is made of consoles, while the other was with in game weapons. They're both good and besides, seeing the bottle of Mountain Dew next to it was a very nice touch.

Gaming’s Scariest Story Finally Solved
by Steve Napierski
First off, if you haven't seen The Game Theorists' first Five Night at Freddy's video, watch that first. Then come back and watch this video.
So my wife and I watched this video last night. We were both fine the theory presented in it, until minute mark 15:12. At that point they suggest that the Purple Guy is holding a phone. Unfortunately, I cannot give them that one. Hell, they might be right, but based off of the image provided there's not enough details to interpolate what is missing.
The premise behind their hypothesis is that these are Atari 2600 graphics. Unfortunately, they are not. They are only inspired by graphical limitations of that era. As such, it's up to the imagination of the viewer to fill in the blank areas. If it was using the Atari 2600's resolution and sprite limitations (which it most definitely is not), it might look closer to the image below. Which to me looks more like he's holding a knife than a phone. But then again, that's just my interpolation.
Five Nights at Freddy's - Atari Phone Guy
Besides that, I feel their explanation is pretty darn sound. It clearly demonstrates the painstaking effort and attention to detail that Scott Cawthon, the creator of Five Night at Freddy's, put into the franchise.
I definitely cannot wait to see how Five Night at Freddy's 3 completes the series, once it's released...Which of course we all know will be.

Gifify Creates Animated GIFs from the Command Line
by Thorin Klosowski
We've covered a ton of different ways to make animated GIFs before , but if you're looking for something even simpler, Gifify converts any video into a GIF from the command line.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens – George Lucas’ Special Edition

Talynebearwow super well done
Just saw this and started laughing. Especially the mention of trade negotiations. Plus, it's very well done. Someone definitely knows their way around Adobe After Effects.
Just in case you didn't see the original teaser trailer, or wanted to compare the two, I included it below.

New battery composed of lots of nanobatteries
by Ars Staff
We’re increasingly dependent upon our batteries, so finding ways of building ones with enhanced lifetimes would make a lot of people happy. Research on batteries has ranged from trying new materials to changing the configuration of key components. Now, researchers have managed to restructure the materials in a nano-battery, then bundle lots of these individual batteries into a larger device.
Batteries rely on two electrodes to create separate currents of electrons and ions, generating electricity. Nanostructured electrodes have useful properties, such as large surface area and short ion transport time, which enables a high storage capacity and enhanced lifetimes—these batteries hold charge longer and can undergo more charge-discharge cycles. 3-D connectivity and organization of nanostructured electrodes could further improve these devices.
Previously, researchers had developed 3-D nanostructured batteries by placing two electrodes within a nanopore (made of anodic aluminum oxide) and using ultrathin electrical insulating material to separate them. While this system had improved power and energy density, use of such thin electrical insulators limits charge retention and requires complex circuits to shift current between them—it's difficult to retain the benefits of the 3-D nano-architecture due to spatial constraints of the material.

Do the Mario!
by Steve Napierski
Personally, I never watch Dancing with the Stars. After seeing this video, I have no problem admitting that nothing has chance.
Also, since the title of this post was "Do the Mario!", I felt obligated to share the video that it references.
