Jun 11 2008 Good 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 pants-free party. Quickly, back on!
Hit the jump for a bunch more closeups of the awesomely soft system.
Jan 7 2008 Portable Dreamcast Looks Nice, Shiny, White
Someone went and made a portable Dreamcast, named the DCp which stands for Dreamcast Portable, which is very c, which stands for clever. It features "a vacuum formed case, LCD screen, and stereo speakers. Best of all, it runs off of just two 7.2V 3Ah R/C car batteries for maximum portability." Sweet. The only weird thing is that the game CD is placed on the back, and there is no cover for it, so it spins freely right by your hands when you're holding it (hit the jump for a picture of the back). And, quite frankly, I worry about hitting the disk with a finger when I'm tearing up some Power Stone. I mean I have big hands. And you know what they say about a man with big hands don't you? That I'm an idiot.
