I barely remember this.  Boco showed some battle screen mockups or something asking for suggestions, and this was my response.

I don't know who created the original Ron "Mario" Jeremy/Nighttrain image, but I just added the guy in front.  He was from an ad or something, and that crazy expression was the bud of much humor.

Oh yeah, Drinky Crow's daughter playing Pokémon!  I wanted to do something silly but not disrespectful, so I went with a safe meme of Blinx showing his approval in unexpected places.

Someone asked about why games are 30 fps or 60 fps, but not 45.  So I made a few example images.  First, a ball moving at what's supposed to represent 30 frames per second.

And here's one representing 60 frames per second, with twice as many frames.

And here's what one would wish 45 frames per second would come out to; something in between the first two.

However, because of the way most displays work, instead of getting an update every 1/45 of a second, you'd get an update after 1/30 of a second followed by one after another 1/60 of a second, back and forth.  Basically, it would be uneven and jerky.

This was shortly after DS Lite's announcement.  I believe, based on what information we had, I was trying to show how big Lite was in comparison to the original model.  At a glance I think I lowballed it.
