Grafitti Transforms Boxcar Into a Vintage Nintendo Controller

Train graffiti isn’t uncommon and is something that might not catch your eye. But if you were stopped at a train crossing, you’d surely notice this boxcar made to look like a giant Nintendo Entertainment System game controller. The painted car includes the large plus sign and bright red buttons we all know and love.

This impressive piece of graffiti is a slightly modified version of the console’s original controller, and was tagged by TEXER ALB. The real thing has two red buttons, not three like we see here. Each circle on the boxcar represents A, L, and B that corresponds to the tagger’s initials, hence the need for the additional button.

Is this our first look at an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090’s PCB? Probably not

With Nvidia’s recent announcement that it’ll be detailing its “latest graphics innovations” on September 1, we imagine excitement for upcoming RTX 30-series consumer GPUs is rife. These should become some of the best graphics cards of 2020 and 2021, and will give many gamers opportunity for a new upgrade. We’ve seen no official pictures of 30-series GPUs or PCBs, but now we have some pictures that supposedly show an RTX 3090’s PCB.

Is Nintendo Teasing the Return of Super Mario Sunshine on Switch?

Earlier today, Nintendo of America Tweeted out a new image of Mario lounging in the summer sun. The render could just be a fun summer-themed design, but Nintendo fans are convinced that there might be something more to it. Earlier this year, rumors began circulating that Super Mario Sunshine will appear on Nintendo Switch, alongside other 3D Mario classics. The game debuted on GameCube back in 2002, and has never been ported to another console. Whether the image is a hint at the game’s return or just some summer fun from Nintendo remains to be seen, but the company has certainly gained the attention of fans!

Asus unveils a NUC competitor with AMD Ryzen and Radeon hardware inside

Asus is launching a line of miniature PCs that are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand (see image above), but powerful enough to handle some lightweight gaming.

The new Mini PC PN50 series is built around AMD’s Ryzen 4000 mobile processors, which is what makes them so compelling. The Ryzen 4000 mobile series is based on AMD’s latest generation Zen 2 architecture (same as found within its Ryzen 3000 desktop CPUs), with onboard graphics based on Vega.

Ryzen 4000 chips are basically APUs (accelerated processing units), a term AMD doesn’t use anymore.

Super Mario Bros Has 256 Worlds, Not 8. Here’s How To Play The Other 248

You may have heard of the infamous Minus World in Super Mario Bros, the glitched ninth world that can only be accessed by clipping into the 1-2 warp zone early. Well, what if I told you there were actually 247 more glitched worlds in the game? Pretty cool, right? But I’ll warn you. The way to reach them is even more ridiculous than the Minus World.

Yes, that’s Mario swimming through the sky and a flying headless Bowser. Levels like this are what you can come to expect from this glitch. You’ll notice that it doesn’t say “World 68-3”, but instead “World Blue Dotted Square-3″. This is because that dotted square is the 68th texture in the game, and that text box is simply programmed to display the texture corresponding to the world number. So how do you perform this glitch?
