Pixel Apocalypse

Godzilla, aliens, apocalyptic natural disasters? Nope, classic 80's video games. Many have prophesied the end of the world but none have foreseen our eminent global annihilation as manifested in the form of an 8-bit wave of destruction unleashed by some Pandora-esque television set abandoned by a hipster in Brooklyn. This video shows just that, and I think it's safe to say that the children of the 80's can relate to such a vision of pixel apocalypse.

Aside from it's impressive graphics and overall creative vision, the best thing about this video is the comment left by some smarty pants on YouTube.

If the whole earth would become 1 volumetric pixel, shouldn't it be smaller? A cube with a edge length of 2*sqrt(2)*r where r is the radius of the earth?

Hmmm, interesting point 4K. I would try and wax intellectually with you about your theory but I stopped understanding math once they introduced letters. My question is how are we supposed to know what country to bomb if in fact we are attacked by pixels?
