Drinking and gaming go together like peanut butter and jelly, so it only makes sense that these NES Cartridge Flasks would exist. These flasks were created by Ink Whiskey, a Portland-based company, and let you get both your game and drink on. The flasks are made of plastic and aren't actual NES cartridges. If you look closely, you'll notice that the labels are all parodies of classic games and involve booze.
The NES Cartridge Flasks are compact enough to fit into a back pocket and look startlingly like the real thing. Ink Whiskey wants to share its creation with the world and has gone to Kickstarter to do so. The company has a target of $12,000 in funding, and a $15 pledge is all you need to secure your own flask.
