NES controller coffee table promotes playing with furniture

Published by Pete at 11:01 am

I thought the boo-themed table was pretty sweet, but this homemade icon of gaming glory from Kyle Downes trumps it. Not only is the recreation beautifully done, but the controller is fully functional. Just remove the glass top, and play away. There is also a massive storage area that the owner has filled with all sorts of gaming goodness. Want!

More pictures after the break showing the functionality.

Being put to good use, and right at home with Super Mario Bros. 3.

Next to the little guy that started it all…

Wow he knows a GIRL!? Wait, no. He knows a girl, who plays GAMES?! He must be the coolest person alive…

Wait, scratch that. I see an N-Gage. I don’t care how many X chromosomes you have, nobody can make that cool.

    Ha ha ha, I had the same reaction. Drooling over the table, wishing I had one, then screaming and covering my eyes at the N-Gage. It’s like A Clockwork Orange for video game collectors.
