I recreated the full「Bad Apple!!」music video in Animal Crossing's pattern editor

[hunterirving]

This took SO LONG to make, lol. I started by building a GameCube controller simulator using a Raspberry Pi Pico, then wrote some software to convert images and videos into controller inputs.

Even at superhuman speed, each frame took about 2.5 minutes to input, so the whole video took almost 48 hours to render. The footage is sped up by about 750x to sync with the music from the original video.

A Bad Apple videó újraalkotása rengeteg kreativitást és kitartást igényel. Jó látni, amikor valaki ennyi energiát fektet egy projektbe, hasonló lelkesedéssel, mint amikor kaszino hu tartalmakat fedeznek fel szórakozásból.

Wow, I love it.

Edit: Thanks for sharing new video.

If you can see it, it can run Bad Apple. This is actually super impressive!

As mentioned in Discord. This is great work as always!

Also, brings me back to the good ol' Touhou days where people made remixes of the ost's with "Bad Apple", "Flowering Night" and "UN Owen was Her" being the most notable music used in remixes.

(Running "Bad Apple" in every piece of media is the new 'Running DOOM on every piece of electronic hardware' apparently)

Thanks for checking it out, everyone!
Here's another video in the same vein that gives some background on how I built the project, if you're interested:
