Introducing the Nintendo Rube Goldberg machine
If you're a fan of old cartoonists, you're probably familiar with the name Rube Goldberg (remember how they unlocked the gate in The Goonies?). However, to most of us, the name is better associated with the game Half-Life 2, where fans of the title have been known to make several different videos documenting Rube Goldberg machines of their own. Finally, Nintendo fans have a machine to call their own, as documented in the video past the post break.

Well it would've been a lot more interesting if the balls had adhered to something close to life-like physics...

@GRT - _exactly_ what I was thinking.
More interesting than your average "i'm learning my 3D animation program" piece, probably, but yeah, not all that gripping when the ball is so clearly being led by the hand. Also, is the music of Marble Madness really all that iconic? Well, points for accuracy I suppose.
Still, it ain't like I'd know how to do what dude did, so hats off all the same.
