In pretty much the biggest show of geekery humanly possible, 80 people dressed up as video game characters to set a new world record for the the Guinness World Record Gamer’s Edition. I do find it hard to believe though that it took only 80 to establish a world record for the largest gathering of game characters… I do believe that some of our friends in Japan would scoff at 80. You could probably find more than 100 on a random street corner in Tokyo on a rainy Friday night, and they would have all just been out for a walk and just happened to run into one another. I expect this will be a fast record to fall.
BTW, Jill Valentine has had better days.

Yeah, only 80? You think you could gather more easily at a large convention. Disappointing that it’s like 30% Marios. I was surprised to find only 2 possible 3 final fantasy cosplayers.
Speaking of which, here’s some weird Mario art I came across, weird.
