This amazing piece of stop motion features six classic NES games over 3:30. Needless to say, it's epic. From Contra to Mario and everywhere in between, the NES Stop Motion video covers some of the major hits from Nintendo's classic console. This video took over 7,000 pictures and 120+ hours to create, so you know it's good. Check out the video below and decide for yourself though. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Retro Gaming Videos:** There is an opportunity for creators to make more stop motion videos based on classic games from different consoles. - **Nostalgia Marketing:** Brands can leverage consumers' love for retro gaming by including nods to classic games in their marketing campaigns. - **Augmented Reality Gaming:** There is potential for game developers to use augmented reality to bring classic games to life in a new and exciting way. ### Who This Affects Most - **Advertising:** Advertisers can use retro gaming themes to develop campaigns that resonate with younger audiences. - **Gaming:** The video game industry can capitalize on consumers' love for retro games by developing updated versions of classic games. - **Film and Animation:** The film and animation industry can create stop motion videos or short films using classic video games as inspiration. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [See-Through Cartridge Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modretro-m64.md) - [Brick Toy Revivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-boy-set.md) - [Retro Gaming Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gamestation-retro.md) - [Revived Retro Arcade Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nes-version.md) - [Vibrant Retro Handheld Gaming](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-classic.md) - [Nostalgic Gaming Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-gaming-watch.md) - [Speed Completion Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-world-championships-nes-edition.md) - [Freestanding Retro Gaming Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vectrex-mini.md) - [Retro Gaming Room Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-gaming-box.md)
