NES Controller Coffee Table Really Plays Games
April 13th, 2012
This isn’t the first Nintendo controller coffee table, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t still look sweet. I like the fact that it is natural wood colored and it makes it look like this NES mated with an old Atari 2600. Everyone needs a good coffee table. The problem is that most are boring. Not this one. This one is all geek class.
It’s made by The Bohemian Workbench, using maple, mahogany, and walnut with dovetail joinery, so it not only looks good. Just remove the glass and it actually plays games when you hook it up to an old NES. It is built with quality as well. This table means serious business. It’s about 42″ long by 18.25″ wide, and stands at about 18” tall. It also will cost you $3,500(USD), plus shipping - but it looks worth it to me.
You are paying for quality materials, electronics, and of course workmanship. You can choose from four different versions (made from different woods or cheaper composites.) If I had the money, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Fortunately for you, the guys over at DudeIWantThat managed to score one for a sweepstakes, so you could win one for your living room if you’re lucky enough. The contest ends on April 27th, so be sure to drop by for a chance to win.
