Retro Video Game Neckties
Do you want to be the Prince of Ties? It’s kind of like being the Prince of Tides, except that you play a lot of Tetris. You also have to play other classic games like Space Invaders, Pong or Asteroids, but that sure beats work that a real prince would do. Oh, and you’ll have to wear a tie to match whatever game you’re playing. Don’t sweat it though, ’cause these Wild Ties are built to make you look good.... Continue reading
D-Pad Hero: Daft Punk Edition
Ever wonder what it’d be like to play Guitar Hero on the original Nintendo Entertainment System? Try D-Pad Hero out for size: Chiptune version of Daft Punk’s “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” played in homebrew NES game D-Pad Hero. Tiny Cartridge reader George recorded and posted this video.

Again, why else would they advertise Ice Hockey for the NES... Continue reading
Space Invading Keyboard Is Pseudo Retro
Many kinds of products are spawned from the inspiration that Space Invaders brings but this specific product is more special than the rest. Yes, even that quilt doesn’t impress as much. Maybe I’m merely being biased because I just spilled beer all over my keyboard and I’m desperately looking for a replacement. Yeah, that’s it. That’s the one! The keyboard I’ve been looking for. It’s dust-proof, spill-proof and to top it all off, it’s themed after one of the greatest... Continue reading
Woodpixel is your DIY wall art
Maybe an interesting concept, or maybe just another overly-simplistic idea that no one but old school arcade fanboys will buy into. The entire premise of Woodpixel, the 100 x 100 square Scrabble-type board,is that you take 100 different cubes with different shapes of wood on each of the six sides and make your own 8-bit video game character to hang on your wall. Of course, if you didn’t want to make something about video games, you can always just make... Continue reading
