Derin Falana Proves His Nintendo Fanboy Status With "N64" Video

Toronto: city of proud geeks.

If you've been paying attention to E3 this year (for unenlightened music fans, it's the Coachella of gaming), you'll know that Nintendo more or less took over the conference by updating their classic franchises with DLC packs, long-awaited sequels, and body-snatching. Nintendo will never not be cool, and Brampton's Derin Falana knows this.

His new video for "N64" is, obviously, a love letter to the greatest console of a generation. Mario, Mega Man, and Link fly around nighttime Toronto (they look more like the 16-bit Super Nintendo versions rather than Nintendo 64 but shhhhh) as Falana raps, dances, and shimmies through the city's most aesthetically pleasing areas. This video is also notable for breaking the Toronto tradition of condo-shot rap videos. Watch "N64" above.
