What do you get when you combine Halo 3 with several franchises in the Nintendo universe? A pretty darn funny video, if you ask us, so give it a chance. It has direct references to Super Mario Bros., StarFox and even Pokemon Snap. Let's see if you can get all of the Nintendo properties directly referenced! Winner gets our undying love for all of eternity.
[Thanks, Chris!]

You guys named most of them, I think. Aside from SSBB. Apparently music from Majora's Mask appeared in there at some point, but I don't remember a MM based joke.
Pretty interesting, but the lack of a reference to Metroid or Zelda was kind of odd.

Yea I'm far from a fan of Halo, but at least the overly excessive Nintendo references was enough to make me smile.
Btw, does anyone know how they did the mario bros. sidescroller part?

Yea, they used forge and some one deleted the platform when they reached the end.
