Yes, the entire map can be viewed in 8-bit style a la Dragon Quest. They even used my Press Start font. *squee*
They even have several landmarks 8-bit-ified. So far, I've found the main building of MIT; the Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower in France; several monuments in Washington... oh, and every Google office has two Googlers standing there on the map.
