Gamers looking for some nerdy Christmas cards to send to friends need to check out 8bit Holiday. 8bit Holiday sells Christmas cards with 8bit holiday images on them. The cards were created by Jacob Fleming and Grant Bussinger of Chicago.
8bit Holiday features the typical Christmas fare of Santa, Frosty and of course, the Christmas tree. Each image has been lovingly recreated in the style of the 8bit games of yesteryear. Each card sells for $3 a pop. That may sound like a steep price, but can you really put a value on sending someone a card with an 8bit Frosty the Snowman on it? The answer is no, as everyone deserves a bit of 8bit holiday cheer.
