Super Big NES Controller, For Real Gamers
Home : News : News Story

A giant NES controller, built to match the original exactly, and works!


What would you give to have this as a coffee table? Retro, cool, everyone knows what it is (well, maybe not the kids), and your girlfriend/wife may even let you keep it. I mean, hey, it's a coffee table.

Not to fast there buddy boy. Not only is this a table, it's a full blown NES controller. Everything matches. Like that geometry project we all had to recreate a small object 10x its original size, Kyle Downes created not only a coffee table (which is just a piece of glass sitting on top of the controller), but a large, working NES controller that makes it so much cooler.

The video shows how it was built, somewhat. They aren't steps, but they are proof that he didn't just find it in Nintendo's dumpster. Just don't do what he did and play Mario with your girlfriend on one controller. It's a relationship killer.
