About a month ago I wrote a little story up about some site selling Tetris shaped shelves for an asinine amount (Like $600 a piece asinine). We all had a good laugh but I personally wish I had to a way to acquire said shelves. Well with a little elbow grease and an adventurous D.I.Y. [...]

Man do I ever hate my lack of motivation. It had to be about 6-7 years ago I thought of an idea similar to this. You’d buy the different shaped shelves and could build out a custom sized/shaped shelf that would’ve fit perfectly wherever you needed it to. The Tetris shaped pieces would give it [...]

The whole video game themed cake thing seemed to sail right by me. I really couldn’t figure out what all the fuss was about. With the exception of that sweet Mario wedding cake of course. But then late last night while catching up on some reading, I see this cake here. Made by one woman [...]

But it’s a pretty kick-ass birthday gift. This guy, Paul Pope, created this fake Wii Channel and box art for a friend’s 30th birthday party. TheLastBoss.com said it best, "had he finished his recent project a week or two earlier, the Internet would definitely be in an April Fool’s daze." Watch, and be amazed.

I never really thought I’d put the word "coolest" in the same sentence as the word "sock" but there it is, there’s no turning back now.  With all the GDC news we’ve had this week, I thought it might be nice to step back, exhale, and take in some footwear inspired by a 30 year [...]

The Brazilian rock band, Holus, dropped Destructoid a line with a video of them playing Sonic the Hedgehog themes in one of their shows. Brings back memories doesn’t it? Also somewhat related is another article about a guy who turned a Genesis into a guitar!

This might appear to be a regular bead necklace, but look closely at the colored beads. They are actually tiny Katamaris made from hand blown glass. Each Katamari is the paltry size of half an inch, but you can easily roll that to the size of a building with the help of the Prince of [...]

The MTV reality show staring Joseph Simmons from Run DMC had an interesting surprise in the first episode of Season 2. Instead of using clips of pop music MTV picked out “Saria’s Song” from the Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time for background music! Check out the clip below.

One of the things that we saw yesterday at the Dell press conference was an XPS 700 PC with an X-Men III logo. The XPS 700 is part of Dell’s “gamer PC” line up. Configurations for the XPS 700 include Intel Dual Core Processor, Dual 256MB nVidia GeForce 7900 GS graphics cards, and the jet [...]

Nintendo fans are working on a place where you can play in the Mushroom Kingdom like never before. A demo was recently held in New York City and a few lucky people had a chance to step into Mario’s world with bungee cords. Check below for two demonstration videos of the purposed system. Correction: These [...]

This is a pretty funny fan made skit about Myspace and accepting friend requests. Mario says to Luigi in the skit “I have like 400 friends, did you see how many friends I have?” Poor Luigi only has 60 friends.

Some console modders paint their DS and others build a sculpture out of it. A bunch of hardware artists built DS inspired by mecha and machines for the Protect Armor contest over at Keysfactor. Check past the jump for more models.  

Cospa is selling these Prinny caps at a price of 3,990 yen ($36). Prinnies are the staple of Nippon Ichi strategy titles like Disgaea: Hour of Darkness and Makai Kingdom. It’s the perfect get up for anime cons like Anime Expo or if you’re hanging out in Prinny Land, the only place Prinnies don’t explode [...]

As much as E3 is hyped as being the biggest video game convention on the planet, it’s really a lousy place to play games. The flashing lights are distracting, the loud noises often make it impossible to hear any sound, and certain people don’t understand that you don’t sit and play a game for twenty [...]
