Jun 11 2008Good Freaking Job: Felt Plush Nintendo
Well we've seen plush gaming systems before, but nothing as wickedly awesome as this felt NES. Made by Craftster user blueblythe, the felt was all hand-dyed, stitched, and embroidered. It took about two weeks to complete and features an NES that can open and have cartridges inserted, a controller and zapper than can be connected, and a television with interchangeable Super Mario 3 and Duck Hunt screens. It looks almost as fun as playing the real thing, and probably a lot more comfortable to sleep on. Good job, my hat's off to you blueblythe, as are my pants. WHEE!! *swinging pants around over my head like a helicopter* Uh oh, here comes The Superficial Writer, and from the look of things he wants to join my pant-free party. Quickly, back on!
Hit the jump for a bunch more closeups of the awesomely soft system.

WANT. That thing would be the best pillow evar. Too bad it would take, like, actual effort to make my own.

Would I have to blow in the cartridge before I play Zelda just like the real one?

This is the stupidest thing ever. LAME

Grow up. This is an awesome project and the amount of time that went into it shows that they are dedicated to their craft, or art in this case. This piece was shown in a gallery. Just because you play video games doesn't mean you can't be a little more open minded.

Well done.
#3: haha, I bet it's 1fpm (frame per minute)...since it probably takes about a minute to change between the two.
