Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })That moment when, in a live-action film, anime, comic strip or other non-video game medium, one suddenly gets video game graphics for a scene. Can be either meant as a self-ironic joke, a would-be profound comment, or for purposes of narrative distantiation. Sometimes, instead of getting video game-like graphics, the show starts to briefly follow video game rules or use a video game-like display. Doesn't count if the characters are actually playing a video game: It becomes a Show Within a Show with the occasional Deep-Immersion Gaming sprinkled on. When done accidentally, it's Conspicuous CG.

Chapter 4 of Lollipop Chainsaw is filled with these. Throughout the chapter, Juliet and Nick keep being pulled into (fictional) arcade games. While these arcade games are still in 3D and running on the Unreal Engine just like the rest of the game, they are all parodies of old arcade games, such as Pac-Man and Elevator Action. | |

Death Battle: In "Goro vs. Machamp", this happens twice. The first happens when Goro's fire breath burns Machamp, activating the Pokemon's Guts ability complete with a "ability activated" pop-up from the Generation VIII games. The second happens after Machamp's victory, where a "Machamp's hurt by its burn!" popup from the Gen I games appears, causing Machamp to faint. | |

MS Paint Adventures All the webcomics of the series are set up as reader-driven adventure games, but Homestuck takes it one step farther by actually including a couple Flash segments where you control one of the main characters directly in a short point-and-click game. Also during the end of Act 4, where this trope is used alongside a Mood Whiplash Big-Lipped Alligator Moment, featuring a sailor being attacked by Squiddles, using pixelated graphics. In Act 5 there have been flashes where you play a character RPG-overworld style. |

Oh, so many times in Lucky Star.

Konata says that when she races, she visualizes herself winning. What do we see? Track & Field, complete with someone using increasingly effective methods of pressing the buttons quickly. |

The Simpsons In "Strong Arms of the Ma", Homer attempts to put all the stuff bought at a garage sale into the car — Tetris-style! In "Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass", Homer gets angry at a Mario look-alike and behaves like Donkey Kong. The episode Marge Gamer shifts between the game characters of the MMORPG Earthland Realms and the players who look just like them. Or vice versa. |

My Little Pony: Camaraderie Is Supernatural In episode 2, the fight with the manticore from "Elements of Harmony" is depicted as a Final Fantasy-style RPG battle, complete with one of the characters leveling up at the end. During Apple Bloom's "80s training montage" in episode 3, a remix of the montage music from Punch-Out!! plays, and the montage ends with a reference to the inter-title training sequences from the NES version of the game. |

Also happens a couple times in TOME, but this is justified since the setting is actually a video game. The trope applies because there are a couple rare scenes that are a sort of Out-of-Genre Experience for the type of game (the game is usually presented as an MMO, but a brief gag has the scene shift to a platformer, for instance). | |

The Tower of Druaga has a scene where, caused by a trap-spell, everyone gets temporarily trapped in the 8-bit version of The Tower of Druaga. Hilarity Ensues when characters confuse each other for rocks/blocks or whatever due to the horrible 8-bit image quality. In a later episode, the main character has to go into a section of the tower where he has no control over himself, and instead someone else has to control him using an old fashioned arcade machine. |

Spaced: Tim and Daisy have an argument that's interspersed with clips from Tekken 3. Every time Tim or Daisy makes a verbal attack, Paul Phoenix or Nina Williams respectively land blows in the game. In the end Daisy wins and Nina's victory animation is shown. Daisy then turns and does the same action for a "Daisy Steiner wins!" screen complete with HP bars, voice-over and pixelated videogame-like graphics. There's also Tim's speed-induced (and later, Twiglet-induced) conflation of Resident Evil with Real Life, and even repeats a line from from a cutscene we saw earlier. (This episode inspired them to make Shaun of the Dead.) |

Kvatch easily takes the cake, since it's fully explorable and you're only required to see about a third of it. The Elderscrolls IV Oblivion's lore is integrated into Kvatch with great detail and the Arena actually contains a Game Within a Game in the form of the dance minigame. Needless to say, Kazerad takes his games seriously. | |

In Street Fighter, the supreme military commander and dictator of a South East Asian nation launches a technologically advanced attack on a band of insurgent rebel fighters by remotely detonating a series of explosive charges in an attempt to stop the incursion. Believing the operation was a strategic success, the commander raises his arms and declares GAME OVER!!!. The viewscreen and controls for the interface launching this attack appears to come from a heavily modified Street Fighter II arcade cabinet. | |

Happens less often than you might think in Wakfu considering that it's based on a video game. The whole Title Sequence of the first season shows the heroes as in a Platform Game, parodying some tropes along the way, like Asteroids Monster. During the second season episode 15, "Wabbits Island", a whole "Mini-Wakfu" segment features reference to Super Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog, Breakout, Space Invaders, Tetris and Pac-Man. |

Every time the tadpole evolves, a Pokémon-style graphic appears and announces its evolution level. Also, during Craig's Imagine Spot about turning into Bernard, the fight between him and Kelsey and JP is done as a first-generation Pokémon fight sequence. | |

Pokémon: Pokémon Adventures is drawn manga-style most of the time, but switches to the game sprites for the Pokedex displays. The very first scene of the very first episode of the anime begins with a recreation of the Nidorino vs. Gengar cutscene seen when booting up Red, tinny 8-bit music and all. It quickly transitions into something befitting the show proper, though. |

Futurama Special mention goes to the "Anthology of Interest II" episode, whose middle segment is one long series of Sudden Videogame Moments. They are all 1970s-early 80s "classic" video games, like the sort Fry played back in the past at his old job, as seen in the pilot episode. Also, on "Fear of a Bot Planet", two robots are building a wall with Tetris-like bricks. When they fill up a gap, most of the wall disappears, as in the game. One of the segments in the season six episode "Reincarnation" depicts the Planet Express crew in the style of an 8-bit video game. |

The Amazing World of Gumball had an insult fight scene between Gumball and Darwin in the episode "The Words." The "fight" was styled as a Street Fighter match; there were life meters and combo tracking for both characters, as well as a continue screen at the end. This is lampshaded when it suddenly cuts out of the game to the actual world showing the background characters unimpressed by the two barely actually doing anything, implying this was all just being imagined—yet somehow Gumball's harsh words demolished a wall. | |

Perhaps the defining example: every single episode of Bug-tte Honey features a sudden video game moment, which makes sense considering it's an extremely loose adaptation of the first Adventure Island for the NES. The scenes are often inspired by or even parody Adventure Island and other Hudson Soft Nintendo games, with shots at Bomberman, Milon's Secret Castle, Nuts & Milk and numerous other Hudson games too obscure for even the most devoted retro fans to know of. The series also integrates other Hudson characters such as Bomberman, Milon and Milk into the main story of episodes. | |

Occasionally, Prequel will slip a flash at the end of a page. While the flashes are usually just movies, sometimes they end up being decent games. Examples include a 16-bit render of Kvatch Katia explores, the chase game against Stephane, the peg puzzle and the snowball game with Aggy. Kvatch easily takes the cake, since it's fully explorable and you're only required to see about a third of it. The Elderscrolls IV Oblivion's lore is integrated into Kvatch with great detail and the Arena actually contains a Game Within a Game in the form of the dance minigame. Needless to say, Kazerad takes his games seriously. |

Homestar Runner: Part of Homestar, Strong Sad and Pom Pom's quest in "In Search of the Yellow Dello" involves the trio appearing in a pastiche of Pitfall. A deleted scene features an alternate version with the Atari 2600 game Barnstorming instead. An Easter Egg in "On Break" has Homestar, Strong Bad, and Coach Z in their mascot costumes, bouncing around the first stage of Burger Time while the Brothers Chaps hum the music from the game. |

Dr. Stone has an Item Get! popup whenever he builds a new piece of technology, e.g. "Acquired Stone Tools!" The trip into the caves to find tungsten begins with a "Character Select" screen as Senku ponders the advantages and disadvantages of the rest of the cast. The visuals then change to a 2D platformer as he describes the plan. |

In the Kick Buttowski episode "Battle for the 'Snax", Kick's attempts to lead a crowd to Gunther's restaurant features a progress bar on top of the screen, and a graphic reading "Angry Crowd!" flashing near the end. Another episode, "Not Without My Cereal", has Kick chasing his sister, Brianna, through a supermarket, and the animation turns 8-bit as Kick tries to avoid shopping carts. As Kick is hit by two shopping carts, the animation goes back to normal. | |

the white chamber has a section where you're sucked into a retro gaming system, with everything pixellated to 8-bit (and it's possible to die). When it ends, it has no effect on the plot apart from your character deciding not to do that again. | |
