A geek going by the name DoctorOctoroc has recreated the entire first act of Neil Patrick Harris and Joss Whedon's hit web show Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog as a non-interactive, 8-bit, Nintendo-type video game using Flash animation.

The confluence of web culture favorites is what drew our eyes to this video — Joss Whedon, Dr. Horrible, Neil Patrick Harris, 8-bit video game nostalgia (just like that geeky wedding invitation) and do-it-yourself Flash creativity is like a top five list of popular YouTube standards.

Dr. Horrible has placed in our top webisodes chart, and it was used by Neil Patrick Harris to mock the 2009 Emmys. Way to make it into the web culture zeitgeist, NPH.
