This didn't need to be a collaboration video at all. With sprite animation you have to really bring something new to the table because everything else has already been done to death. Having Mario fail over and over again to do anything is just too dull of a subject and having the same scene setup over 11 minutes it makes the video seem way too long than it actually is. Even the sprite animation was pretty dull. Nothing really stood out.
For the sake of fairness though I watched through the whole thing to see if anything caught my fancy. The only one that stuck out to me was the last one but only because it reminded me of Super Mario Z and that ending gave me a chuckle.
If the collaboration was just an overall sprite animation showcase it most likely would be better.
