We've featured the extraordinary TheDominoKing before here at Nintendo Life, but their latest creation is truly stunning. This time, the domino enthusiast has created a stunning Mario & Luigi tribute that's utterly hypnotic to watch take shape.
This three-part masterpiece starts with a chain of dominos crashing into a huge domino warp pipe, which collapses into the second line of blocks. These then form a pixel art Super Mario Bros.-style piece, which then links up to the final gorgeous piece with Mario and Luigi high-fiving — just like this art from Super Mario Maker 2.
The whole tribute has been created with over 33,000 dominos (which is a "smaller project", apparently!). We can't imagine how long that took to set up, plan out, or even get all of the right colours! But it must've been incredibly satisfying to finish it off.
The DominoKing has done tons of video game-themed domino tributes over the years. Back when Yoshi's Crafted World came out, TheDominoKing created a 34,000 domino Yoshi piece. The artist has also done tributes to Sonic, Zelda, Undertale, Paper Mario, and Pokémon. So make sure you check out TheDominoKing's YouTube channel and try not to think about how many times he may have accidentally knocked over his pieces!

That's brilliant
Oh, dominooooooho!
I love seeing domino videos. The sheer amount of time and work that goes into pieces like these is commendable.

Where can you buy dominos in bulk?
Just the thought of building these stresses me out. Haha.
Probably just me... but I find the pre knocked down patterns most impressive, in terms of their detail and just managing to get all those dominos upright! The patterns practically look the same once knocked over anyway...?!
That's pretty rad. And slightly brightens my morning.
@Orokosaki I'd love to see more happy people than moaning people in the world, this is light relief from the monotony of life and is related to Nintendo.
What I would give to have this amount of free time.
@NinChocolate Depends how hungry you are
The patience required...

@Sam_TSM It may not be free time. Some people can do this type of thing professionally. They have a tv show about just dominoes.
