Random Time! - Super Mario 64 real-life hud shows stars/coins/health/lives

...This project takes the HUD values from Super Mario 64 - health, coins, lives and stars - and displays them on LED displays. It uses a program running on a PC that extracts values from Project64 and then sends the values to an Arduino which then updates the displays. This project could be expanded so that other in-game events affect the real world or even the other way round. What if you had to unlock the doors in SM64's castle to unlock real life doors?
