Go renegades! The homie Godfree from Gamertag Radio sent over this video (via his man DJ Idee) that Myk31 aka Mykola created for his own unofficial Kanye West “Robocop” video. Peep all the amazing vintage videogame references! Myk31 says he did not lift any pre-existing videogame images but instead was inspired by NES classics like MegaMan II, Punchout, Battletoads, Double Dragon, and Ninja Gaiden.
Love creativity like this : )

@th!z, the video is following 8-bit NES color pallette + restrictions, except for the widescreen and some overly technical things

Possibly my fave song off of 808s, and possibly my fave video of the year thus far.
Btw, Ms. Oh I sent you an e-mail regarding your domain…if for some reason you don’t get it, read this:
