Prince Of Persia Prowls The Streets Of Israel

In this brilliant video from Israel’s Karahat, the hero of Jordan Mechner’s 1989 platforming classic comes to life in pixel-perfect form, right down to the stumbling animations and Mario prison romance.

Maybe the Mario bit wasn’t in the original game. Everything else was, more or less. Kaharat (which means bald head, appropriately enough) isn’t just dressed up in Prince of Persia pixels; he becomes the character, odd gait, hesitated jumping, sword-fighting and all.

In ancient Persia he would have been a here. Today’s he’s just another one of Mario’s conquests.

Real Prince of Persia! [YouTube – Thanks, Yotam!]
