What day is it today?
November 21st is “Nintendo Day.”
It is known among fans as “Nintendo Day” because it was the day when many Nintendo game consoles and software were released. Notable releases include the Super Famicom in 1990 and Pokemon Gold and Silver in 1995.
I generate four images each time, but this time the first one came out as a story, so I thought it was cool and made it into a four-panel comic.
“Nintendo Day” prompt
In an upscale living room, a handsome man in a white down jacket and jeans is holding a game controller and headphones around his neck, yelling into a TV monitor connected to a home gaming console.
On the monitor, a giant monster is rampaging through the game, destroying the city.
The correct answer is this, though.
The prompt given to the image generation AI was, “In an upscale living room, a good-looking man in a white down jacket and jeans is wearing headphones around his neck, clutching a game controller, and shouting into a television monitor connected to a home gaming console.
The monitor shows a giant monster rampaging through the game, destroying a city.”
As expected from ‘Flux 1.1 Pro Ultra’, I generated several images and the output was stable (no play lol).
I guess ‘Flux 1.1 Pro Ultra’s definition of a good-looking man is a beard.
