Thanks for sharing this, I love finding creative new ways to take advantage of 'tried & true' technology and it's something that regularly feeds into how I build software–sometimes to the displeasure of colleagues who are most interested in the shiniest new tools. It's interesting to read about how this sort of thinking worked for Nintendo.
