Jan 2 2009DIY: Make Your Own SNES Cartridge Wallet
Some guy went and made a wallet out of an old SNES game cartridge (that shit better not have been A Link To The Past). The cartridge comes packed with emergency LEDs, videogame sound effects, and enough room to carry cash, cards, keys and a USB memory stick. Granted, it's not the coolest wallet I've ever seen, but I'm biased since I made one out of an entire Wii console. Plus, if i rock it in a front pocket, it makes my junk look bigger. And rectangular-er. Which, according to my latest poll, 6 out of 5 women on the bus find freaky deaky.

No thanks, not worth it's size or the humiliation of pulling the thing out in public. Doesn't seem too airport friendly either

This is way lame... However...
If he got his gf to rock an SNES console purse, he could use the line:
"Hey baby, can I slip my cartidge into your console?"

Thump .. that joke was NEARLY as bad as the wallet ..

No life?
C'mon, you're posting comments on Geekologie. None of us here should be telling anyone to get a life.

I hope it shorts out and catches his pants on fire, that would be awesome.
13. Douche McAllister - January 2, 2009 3:43 PM
@11 YES!

@1: That's what girls always say about me.
15. C-Basstian - January 2, 2009 4:07 PM
@14 how in the hell did i miss that obvious thats what she said moment!

FAKE!!!!
This is an obvious photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scne in the movie Never Back Down where the bad guys were chasing a very pregnant Baja past Max who was waiting for a bus. Max took it upon himself to try and save her, and to help her deliver her baby, and fight the bad guys. He eventually ended up fighting the commissioner of baseball, and then going out to the Dairy Queen with the baby and Persephone from the Matrix.

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This reminds me of a scene from the movie Tender Dracula. The two drunken overdubbed french men are riding with the red headed huge perm actress in South America. At the red head's insistence, they stop at a freak show in the middle of nowhere.
Shortly afterwards they are turned into freaks themselves, and live with a sock headed Dracula and his giant worm-like resurrected man servant.

@17... Seriously Spam Artist...why try and mess with Daisy's brilliance. Not Cool.

@ 6 Hey SiGee I know he has no life. Look there's a Wal-Mart employee discount card in that thing, I work at Wal-Mart for a year all I did was work and sleep there was no time for a social life unless it was with the people I worked with, and that was no prize I tell ya.

This reminds me of that scene in PCU when that guy is running around trying to get people to go to the party at the frat house and he ends up running into George Clinton and the P Funk Allstars and they play at the frat party and they end up making enough money on the party that they don't have to move out.

You people are sheep.
23. boxofwine - January 2, 2009 10:01 PM
@ 21. I love that movie!
btw, you left out the part about when the fat stoner made a snes cartridge wallet.
24. khee - January 2, 2009 10:57 PM
that is .... d.u..m.b

25. gamemaster87 - January 3, 2009 1:21 AM
Lol, just checking the links that are in the stats of my instructables page. Yall are awesome. I'm literally rolling over here from the comments. Shadows probably look wrong because I used a flash at close range with my macro setting.
And I'm definitely loving number four, I'll make my gf a SNES purse just so I can say that to her.
And lastly number eight makes a very valid point.

original, but useless
27. Franchesca - January 3, 2009 9:16 AM
What I meant to say was "I'm unoriginal, and completely useless".
Oh, and because I'm a private person, I post on comment pages with a link to my private Myspace page, cos I'm like, sooooo private.

It just shows how bored a Wal-mart employee gets with their life. That a Wal-mart discount card inside!

32. Franchesca - January 5, 2009 5:59 AM

You Sir must be gay, a fat jealous bitch, OR both to be that obsessed with me.
BTW Katy Perry? Can you think in something better than that? I guess not.
