I think my dreams have just come true. A cute girl playing games on a huge ass NES controller? Why does this never happen at my house? The NES Coffee Table can actually be used as a controller during game play, and it also provides excellent space for storing away all of your gaming gear.
The good folks over at Techeblog have put together an article highlighting a few neat super hero themed computers. Because when geeks put comic books down…Well, geeks never put comics down.
Above is a cool Hulk inspired computer. Hit the link for more. Most notably some Batman and an Optimus Prime mod.
Next month the Iron Man movie comes out. Just in time comes this one-of-a-kind, custom-modded Iron Man action figure from Jin Saotome. Painted to resemble Tony Stark after a serious bender, and based on a Marvel Movie Legends Iron Man figure, the alcohol-poisoned hero doesn’t look so good.
It comes with several miniature beer cans and a mini bottle of Bacardi. Painted in all the hues of vomit, the green, yellow, and orange figure is up for auction on eBay and is currently at $102.50.
Thanks to its largely flat surface, the NES is an ideal canvas for custom paint jobs. eBay user hellokitty11111111111 does a pretty good job. Everything from Kid Icarus to Castlevania, Earthbound, Super Mario Bros. 3, and more. They can go for up to $149.99. Hit the link for more awesome pics.
This Corolla’s engine block has a cover that looks like a NES controller. I’m not sure if it’s cool or not. On one hand, it is a NES controller on a car engine. On the other, no one will see the thing.
Mario Galaxy fans will love this lighted Wii mod. It’s got a bunch of LED lights, 59 to be exact, illuminating the Mario Galaxy logo, while others flicker on and off like stars. It’s also got Mario figures on either side.
It was being sold on Ebay and all proceeds would have gone to the Penny Arcade charity, Child’s Play. But it appears that those douche guzzling Nazis at Ebay have taken the auction down.
You guys sick of all things Steampunk yet? You won’t be when you see these Star Wars figures made by Sillof. This is pure…awesome…geekiness.
Every geek I know has a broken console or two lying around. Every geek I know also thinks he can play guitar. And maybe they can, but I’ll still kick their sorry asses in Smash Bros. Why not build a real working guitar using some of your old consoles, like these guys did? How about a Dreamcast guitar or one made out of a Nintendo Famicom?
Check out some cool images below.

Anyone who has ever had to give NES blowjobs(that’s what I’m calling it) to cartridges in order to play them, will be able to appreciate this.
You know, NES blowjobs…On the old NES system, the cartridge contacts would get dirty and you used to have to take it out of the machine and blow the excess dirt out, then stick it back in. Sometimes the game would play, sometimes it wouldn’t.
So, anyway, this guy actually made an old NES cartridge into a Harmonica. So, now he blows into it for fun. Video below.

This hand-painted Super Mario themed Wii features a scene from the classic platformer. It even has a 3-dimensional Mario busting out of the side. It was done using a large amount of modeling clay and Bondo.
There’s a tutorial over on Instructables, showing you how to do the same thing. The creator says he is probably putting this one up for auction in the next week to raise some cash, so watch ebay if you are too lazy to make your own.
