Google Maps in 8-bits!
« on: Sat, 31 March 2012, 18:42:24 »
Google is going to release Google Maps for NES !



You don't have to have a NES to use it. You can try it out on your PC here.

...

On a related note, Mojang -- the creators of Minecraft -- is working on a new game called Mars Effect.
It will even come with a fully emulated 16 bit computer that you can use in the game!

Only for today, I suppose ...

Your April fools prank has been noticed, and has failed to convince me.

Try again!

There is nothing "fun" about a giant, creepy corporation that spies on people.

1395985, you sound a bit bitter about the thread that you closed =/.
Why would you say that this is a joke. It's totally legit. You can even try it out if you don't believe them.
Anyone want to arrange a EU GB for this? ;)

Attempting to revive a rather obvious, still-born prank is beyond ridiculous. Try harder. :p

Internet sarcasm doesn't work. Why would you think I am upset, by some random antagonistic person online? Dude, seriously, quit being a troll. Thanks.

Uhm. No reason at all. Sorry for assuming you were upset. You are obviously taking the joke just fine.

Awesome post, tsangan. Did you ever try the game? I never got around to trying it.
