With as many gaming geeks as we have here, I'm surprised this hasn't made it out yet...!

[edit] ah, now that's more like it!

I once heard a marching band play the Who's "Pinball Wizard," and I thought that marching band music could get no better -- but this has topped it. Awesome.

Pong (gameplay footage), Tetris (gameplay footage), Mortal Kombat (making the MK and the dragon logo), Pokemon (making a couple of Pokeballs) with a band member dressed as Pikachu beating up... the USC Trojan?, Zelda (making a Triforce and a sword), Super Mario Brothers (making pipes and blocks), one or two songs I don't recognize, and then back to Super Mario Brothers (making the castle with flag at the end of a stage).

Any body recognize the songs/shapes for the things in between the pipes/blocks and the castle that the princess isn't in?

Don't worry umber, the other two were also from the mario series... The first was from Super Mario world from the SNES and the other was the underwater theme from the original... not a bad performance...
