Serious photography buffs can never have enough lenses. But lenses are expensive and fragile, so you certainly wouldn’t want to throwing them around – at least not until now. With these plush lens pillows, you can feel comfortable that no amount of tossing or squeezing will break them.

Growing up, we always took throw pillows very seriously. My brother and I would hurl them ninja star style at each other in fits of rage often induced by changing the TV channel during my favorite show.

Like the Blue Screen of Death, brightly colored pixelated display glitches are a familiar sight to computer users with failing hardware or buggy software. We’re seeing less and less of it though; if you’ve grown fond of it take a good look at these throw pillows made by Benjamin Berg aka Stallio.

If you are in the market for some nerdy pillows – specifically of the Doctor Who variety – here are some great designs from Etsy seller FourEyesHandmade. This Dalek pillow is my favorite of the bunch – with a bit of a minimalist design.

Itching to get your hands on those retrolicious NES controller pillowcases and cushion covers we featured last week? Wait no more. Emily has set up shop on Etsy and is currently taking orders.

Nothing can compete with this complete NES Bed set, but textile designer Emily’s cushions and pillows come close. She originally made these for her boyfriend as a Valentine’s Day gift but then the citizens of the Internet started throwing money at their screens and demanded that she make more.

Do you get pumped up at the thought of assembling your own PC? Do you regularly find yourself surrounded by circuit boards and the smell of solder? Do you adore Arduino? Then you’ll love Atelier Kurth’s Happy Covers, awesome pillow covers with electronic parts printed on them.

I have to admit that Bubble Bobble has always been one of my favorite classic arcade games. To this date, I still bust out a game or two on my Dingoo emulator when I need to get my mind off of things.

While snatching up this pillow isn’t likely to give you the ability to toss fireballs (though how cool would that be?), it just might add a little life–or, uh, heat–to your sofa. This super-soft-looking pillow is one of a series celebrating a variety of Super Mario Bros-related objects, and if you ask me?

I always loved the game Berzerk back when it hit arcades all the way back in 1980. But for some reason, it’s one of those few classic games that doesn’t get much love these days (although technabob’s mascot was “borrowed” from the game).

Ah, good old Ctrl+Alt+Del: it’s the Heimlich Maneuver of PCs. It’s a key combination used so often one wonders why there’s no single CtrlAltDel button yet for quick resets. And then one realizes that such a button already exists and that it is called the power switch.

Looking for a way to bring your gaming obsession into the bedroom? What better way but with a couple of these video game controller pillows on your bed. Perfect in bed or on your sofa, these 20″ x 20″ pillows from Tofu Design ($40 each) are covered with images of controllers from just about every gaming console you could want.
