VIDEO: 80s TV shows go 8-bit

It's been an unusually grand time for 80s-specific nostalgia this past week.

First, there was the video which reminded us of all the toys we used to play with as kids and now this one manages to bring up TV and video game memories all at once.

The rather brilliant 40 seconds converts some classic shows into various 8-bit games, effortlessly seguing into one another.

We're impressed, nostalgic and a bit annoyed with this stupid decade we're currently in.

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
