Who needs super accurate Google Maps or perfectly handy physical maps when you can have Nintendo?
A new interactive map designed by Brett Camper allows you to explore the city of San Francisco as if it's a Nintendo game. Zoom in and see your favorite neighborhoods and landmarks in perfectly pixelated form. Enjoy nostalgic Nintendo iconography without pesky unidentified mushrooms getting in your way.

San Francisco is the latest in Camper's Nintendo-inspired maps. Non-Bay area residents can also enjoy Camper's models of New York, Washington D.C., London, Kyoto, Seattle, and others.
"The 8-Bit Cities project, which started with 8-Bit NYC, is an attempt to to make the city feel foreign yet familiar, smashing together two culturally common models of space: the lo-fi overhead world maps of 1980s role playing and adventure games, and the geographically accurate data that drives today's web maps and GPS navigation," Camper writes on his website.
It's nostalgic, it's imaginative, and strangest of all: it's accurate.
WTF.
