Mario, Charmander, and More Meet the Unreal Gaming Engine

A slew of original Nintendo video games have gotten sleek 2015 updates, thanks to YouTuber CryZENx and Unreal graphics engine. It’s the same rendering software used in games like Gears of War, Kingdom Hearts, and Street Fighter V, and seeing classic Pokemon, Mario, and Zelda games rendered with its capacities feels quite literally unreal. Also, CryZENx is great at putting his characters up to hilarious, asshole antics, like having Charmander light a herd of deer on fire. Watch that clip and more in his handiwork below:
