I saw this early and was geeking out.

Of course, Street View wasn't done yet at the time. Too bad they didn't try and make it adhere to any NES palette.

Loved the part where you can actually hook it up via Dial-up

Street View looks more like CGA than NES.

Technically it'd be EGA using the default palette (CGA had a two-bit palette; EGA had a four-bit palette) of the whole CGA colour range. </nerd>

Oh man. This is definitely the best one I've seen today. Dragon Warrior ftw!

In case nobody figured it out... there ARE 8-bit versions of world landmarks/monuments sprinkled around the map.

As well, there are Dragon Quest monsters (Slimes, Drakees, Dragonlord, etc.) hidden all around the map as well.

What?

I know about the hidden icons around the world, but the monsters? None in sight. Do show me an example, if you can, please!

I saw plenty of them, actually. (which says enough about how much time I wasted with it)
