Whats pixilated and has a population of 8.3 Million?

Imagine New York City (and the boroughs) as an adventure-scape of the 8-bit world from your old-school Nintendo days.

MIT alum, Brett Camper puts the pixel treatment on a Google Map of the 5 boroughs of New York. In this incredible mashup parks, water, some notable landmarks and roads take on such a blocky NES map look like RPGs of yesteryear. If only you could be able to assemble a team of adventurers and storm the island exploring side streets and neighborhoods, plundering its riches!
