Google released an 8-bit map "upgrade" this past weekend as an April Fool's joke. This upgrade was done to support the Nintendo Entertainment System as explained in the Google LatLong blog - the video at this link is pretty funny.
Here are some examples of our 8-bit fantasy-like world:
The lower Great Lakes with the important places like Aurora and West Virginia emphasized.
Westminster, London - zoom in to get cute building icons.
The pixellated coast of New Orleans
Yellowstone and vicinity
Sydney.
Occasionally you will come across a game character like this guy near Scranton. If I was more into gaming I might know who this is.
Here's the googleplex area with its dinosaur and flamingoes. There's probably a joke or two here for those in the know.
If you zoom all the way to street view, the images are posterized for your fantasy viewing pleasure:

Very beautiful landscape! Indeed, the USA is a very interesting country because of its geography and traditions. Especially with Rental24h Under-25
