Awesome find, xtop. That's pretty sweet stuff. The Castlevania (I'm assuming that's what it is with the whip and skeletons) looks really good... as does Mega Man.

Awesome drawings. I imagine remaking games to actually look like that during gameplay would be quite challenging to the system's processor; and the system on which you would play games so graphically exotic would be quite expensive...but hey I'd be into it.

Thanks for the update xtop.

I might finally change my wallpaper on my PS3. I've been using a high-res version of the Zelda one since that first batch were posted.

Might switch to Donkey Kong now.

. This is so awesome on so many levels! I would pay $60 per game for these and I don't even do that with new games nowadays. Heck, make a new system just for these games like this and I'd buy it up day one.
