Nostalgic Dual Controller Mugs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 2-Player Gaming Mug Set Makes Drinking Coffee with a Pal Fun

— September 21, 2014 — Pop Culture
The 2-player Gaming Mug Set will remind you of your childhood playing video games with a friend.

Both gaming mugs are designed to look like the controllers of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). Fans of the SNES will be able to instantly recognize the familiar button positioning and the D-pad; however, there are slight differences in the colors of the buttons. Both mugs can hold 16-ounces of your favorite drink and are identical in almost every other way. The only variation between the gaming mugs, is that one has "Player 1" written on it, while the other has "Player 2" written on it.

Since the gaming mug comes in a set, you won't have to fight with your friend, or significant other, over who gets to use it, but do expect a few heated debates over who gets to drink as player one.
Trend Themes
1. Nostalgic Gaming Merchandise - Opportunity to create more nostalgic gaming-themed products to appeal to fans of classic video games.
2. Social Gaming Experiences - Potential to explore multiplayer drinking experiences and products that evoke memories of gaming with friends.
3. Retro Design Revival - Chance to tap into the popularity of retro designs and incorporate them into various consumer products.
Industry Implications
1. Gaming Merchandise - The gaming merchandise industry can capitalize on the demand for nostalgic and retro-themed products.
2. Kitchenware and Dining - The kitchenware and dining industry can incorporate gaming-inspired designs into their products to cater to nostalgia-seeking consumers.
3. Gifts and Novelty Items - The gifts and novelty items industry can create unique and nostalgic products that evoke fond memories of gaming.
