Fans of the NES and SNES are going to flip when they see 8 bit Invader. 8 bit Invader is a video created by artist Pavel Novák that simulates some of the most popular games of yesteryear on the Department of Visual Art building in Uherské Hradiště, Czech Republic.
The games featured in 8 bit Invader include such classics as Super Mario Bros. and Space Invaders. The best part about this video is watching the games interact with the features on the buildings facade. Seeing Mario jump onto a window or the Duck Hunt dog rise out of an overhang is truly something special. You can check out the video here, along with a ton of other awesome 8-bit art, gadgets and more.
