This funny beach towel by ThinkGeek revives the Gameboy system so that you can take it to the beach without the worry of water damage. The rectangular shape of a beach towel makes it the perfect canvas to recreate the Gameboy's buttons, video game display screen and cross-shaped controller pad on.
The hilarious and nostalgia-inducing 'BeachBoy' towel is a twist on the popular handheld gaming console that will undoubtedly bring a smile to the faces of kids and adults. The retro towel is a must-have for beach-going geeks this summer, but if you've got the pale skin of someone who's been inside playing video games all day, just be sure to lay on the sunscreen before soaking up the sun.
