Retro Gamer Playsets

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

DeerDot's Super Mario Dollhouse is Cute

— November 19, 2011 — Art & Design
The Super Mario Dollhouse will take many people by surprise. Playful and crafty, the Super Mario Dollhouse offers a more active alternative to actually sitting in front of a TV and playing the Mario Bros. video games.

That is exactly the reasoning behind the Super Mario Dollhouse. Created by Cia of DeerDo for her son with the help of some friends, it really allows children’s imaginations to soar. Four storeys high, it features all of the iconic characters, and some additional ones, as well as green pipelines, cotton clouds and stool mushrooms.

For parents who want their kids to be entertained without the TV, the Super Mario Dollhouse is the perfect fit. Children can interact with the characters, instead of just staring at them on a static screen.
Trend Themes
1. Retro Playsets - Offering nostalgia and an alternative to digital entertainment, companies can tap into the resurgence of retro playsets and board games.
2. Interactive Dollhouses - As parents look for more immersive and engaging play options for their children, creating interactive dollhouses with popular characters can be a great disruptive innovation opportunity.
3. DIY Toy-making - Parents and hobbyists can create custom toys and playsets for children using affordable materials and 3D printing technology.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Manufacturing - Toy manufacturers can capitalize on the trend of retro playsets by producing new versions of classic toys and games that offer an alternative to digital entertainment.
2. DIY and Craft - Online marketplaces and hobby stores can cater to parents and hobbyists looking for affordable DIY toy-making materials and resources.
3. Children's Entertainment - Companies specializing in children's entertainment can explore creating more interactive and immersive experiences, like the Super Mario Dollhouse, that encourages creativity and imagination.
