Similar to my earlier Donkey Kong concept work, here is an idea for a Lego-ized Dr. Mario. The layout is much simpler than in the game.
View of the Dr. Mario title done with some 1 bump wide plates.
Dr. Mario minifig. I do not have a Doctor torso, so I just used a white one.
The three viruses.

My next pixelized Lego creation is of the Blue Virus from Dr. Mario to go along with red created earlier.
Here is a picture of the Blue Virus from the micro-game in the first WarioWare game.
On the computer, I created a cleaner and easier to view version with some guide-lines to make it easier to see the different "pixels."
A basic Lego model where the side of a 1x1 plate represents a single pixel.
Final version of the Lego model.
The model can even stand on its own.
I was thinking of making some "pixelized" creations out of Legos for some video game characters. Originally I was hoping to do the old-school Mario, but I did not think I had enough bricks in the appropriate colors. Instead, I went with a simpler pallet with the Red Virus from Dr. Mario.
I have been a long time fan of the puzzle game Dr. Mario. I have the original version for the NES and a few years ago purchased the Gameboy version. I was very surprised to see that the Nintendo DS game Brain Age 2 even has it's own version, although it is titled Virus Buster.
First, I took a picture of the Red Virus from the micro-game in the first WarioWare game.
Then, I created a cleaner and easier to view version on the computer.

The Lego model seemed too short, so I expanded it. Here is a work in progress photo.
