Controller Coffee Tables

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Extreme NES Coffee Table is an Exact Working 10:1 Replica

— December 12, 2010 — Unique
You haven't truly seen it all until you've seen the Extreme NES Coffee Table. This coffee table is an exactly 10:1 replica of an actual NES controller. That by itself would be cool, but in no way "extreme."

The Extreme NES Coffee Table earns its name from the fact that it still works as an NES controller and has an NES built into it! Getting your retro game on is now as easy as pulling up to your couch and turning on your coffee table. This may be the ultimate piece of gamer furniture. Eat your heart out, Space Invaders couch.
