Video games. Music. The occasional necktie. The era of those eight notable bits has left its footprints in more than just the sand. It’s even ventured into the realm of matrimony as displayed by this 8-bit wedding invitation. Featuring a groom as player one and the bride as player two, this novel nuptial note pits the almost newlyweds in versus mode instead of cooperative. Based off of that, I’m going to go ahead and call it now. GAME. FUCKING. OVER. Yet again. Seriously, when are you people going to learn?

Now that’s a wedding invitation with style. No frilly crap. Just simple, clean, pixels. I’d go.

Where exactly are you supposed to Insert Coin?
Also, has anyone translated the binary on the front of the invite? I am guessing that it is a Spanish translation of “Marry me? YES!”, which is probably a give away to the groom when the bride-to-be is already in her wedding gown when you take a knee to pop the question. :)

its incomplete. the groom says “[” and the rest is incomplete because of the question mark. the bride isn’t even close to saying a letter.

Those mean absolutely nothing in any representation that I am aware of so I am guessing they are just random strings of 0s and 1s.
What you could have would be something like:
57 6F 75 6C 64 55 6D 61 72 72 79 6D 65 3F
59 65 73 21
You can convert those from hex to binary yourself

Or… it’s just a random bunch of 0s and 1s to get the point across that this is indeed a geeky wedding invitation.
Just sayin’. *shrug*

They’re Spanish 1’s and 0’s.

If it really said ” You’re invited” or something like that it take up most of the card.

You know I’ve read this headline a couple of times now in my feed an only now did it dawn on me what you were hinting at. A little slow today I am.
