A bit crusher project will definitely be happening, but I don't have anything ready yet. In the meantime, have a look at Tim Escobedo's PWM. This is probably where I will start on my own project.

Reminds me I do have an unverified RNG layout.

you can get similar sounds out of a fuzz factory/zombii: this is my friend doing a "fret tapping" kinda thing http://soundcloud.com/big-dipper-effects/8-bit-fuzz

Or an Uglyface, they get pretty nasty. The MXR Blue box without the octave down sounds like a Supernintendo FUzz if you get bored with a plain old NES.
