Nintendo Controller Seen from Google Earth



Pictured above is the Church of St. George in Lalibela, Ethiopia. From the sky, it looks like a classic NES controller. Do you see it? Scroll down for a comparison shot.

The church dates back to at least the 13th Century and is a work of monolithic architecture -- meaning that its buildings are carved out of single blocks of rock. (Link via Geekologie | Photos: Buzzfeed)


It's a fake. I googled "Church of St. George in Lalibela, Ethiopia" and on the map all you can see is the d-pad and the start button. The rest appears to be faked.
