How To Accessorize Like A Geek
Are you saddened by the lack of suitably nerdy purses on the open market? Me neither, but that's because I don't use a purse. It's not that I don't like them, it's just that they can't hold my laptop. However, there is a rather brilliant auction going on right now on eBay featuring a purse that's been made out of an old Nintendo console.
A very clever entrepreneur has listed the NES purse on eBay for the world to marvel at, and aside from the handy controller strap that appears to be attached in a rather hasty manner, the innards sport a soft, grey fabric to hold makeup, cellphones, and Mario figurines, and there's even a hidden compartment on the bottom for cash, lighters, or 1-UP mushrooms.
Now, if you happen to be looking for even more NES goodies to accessorize your wardrobe with, might I suggest a Nintendo Cartridge Cigarette Case?

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the perfect 80s party accessory.
the cigarette cases would be totally hot if they weren't completely fracking useless and gigantic... how am i supposed to pull that out of my inner suit pocket?
You're supposed to put the cigarette case in the purse. Duh.
so those of us nicotine-addicted gay gamers who don't carry man-purses are doomed, i guess. damn...
Pfft, that's nothing. I have one of the original plastic Gameboy carrying cases that were shaped like a giant Gameboy (with the buttons and everything), that I use as an art supplies box. That thing wins.
