20 years ago today, I posted "Luigi is Really Real 2005: The Movie" on YouTube!
This video revolutionized "Luigi in SM64" memes by going beyond badly photoshopped static images! 😏
It also happens to be the first footage of Super Mario 64 ever posted to YouTube, which had just launched a few months earlier.

To celebrate this momentous anniversary, I remade the original video using modern technology. Which is really, just me losing my mind trying to mimic all the random moves Luigi made in the original video. https://youtu.be/WXUF-5UFUKI

@vl_tone@mastodon.social How did you end up reacting to the discovery that L is unironically real from one of those big Nintendo data leaks not too long ago?

@vl_tone@mastodon.social 20 years?! Ohhhhhhhh man I'm feeling old now.. I remember coming across this in my recommended videos circa 2007 and discovering Toad's Tool 64, all of your Starfox and Metroid work, and being in awe of it all.
