For the Boys

by nadine on October 16, 2009

I have zero gaming skills. Zero. In fact, my brother once kindly pointed out that I’m “the worst video-game player in the history of the world.” I excel at finding creative ways to kill myself. But that’s where the entertainment factor ends. All death, all the time.

I may have had a crush on Luigi at some point. But that has nothing to do with my Nintendo-playing abilities. It merely reflects my appreciation of stylin’ overalls, Italian accents, and the underdog.

I do, however, enjoy the nostalgic hugs that NES can offer. There’s something oddly comforting about a late-night conversation about Duck Hunt.

This makes me happy:

Yes, that’s a real NES console. And yes, it’s also a real working guitar. CraziestGadgets.com is my new addiction.
