I wonder if an OCR program can be trained to recognize blocks in mario land?  If not, I was thinking of cutting the levels from the above site into 280*192 pieces, and write my own "OCR" program for the hi-res screen.

tesseract-OCR can be trained.  I've not done it myself so I don't know
how tough it would be.  There are instructions on its web-site.
