Show Your 8-Bit Love With This NES Controller Ring

At this point, I think you are all pretty familiar with my dislike of wearing things like rings because I feel they get in the way and are too restrictive, not to mention my fear of never being able to get them off once I get them on.  However, I still enjoy looking at and posting about really cool rings that I happen to come across while I am browsing my favorite websites.  Speaking of cool rings, I think I have found one that any fan of the Nintendo NES console will love!  And yes, I know saying Nintendo NES is redundant but I feel like it is the style I want to write in for once so deal with it! 😛

Etsy seller mooredesign13 is selling these handmade NES controller rings for just $200!  The rings feature the NES controller on a brick pattern with rubies as the A and B buttons.  The ring itself is made of sterling silver.

If you decide to order one of these, be warned that the smallest they can make is a size 9 because otherwise the A and B buttons are too small to set the ruby stones in.

Rings like this make me really wish I liked wearing rings because I would love to wear an NES controller around my finger.

NES Controller Baseball Cap

Depending on how long you have been a reader here at Fanboy Fashion or my other site, Global Geek News, you may or may not know that I never leave the house without a hat and I grew up playing the Nintendo Entertainment System.  Well, somebody has finally combined those two things and created a baseball cap style hat with an NES controller embroidered on it!  I might not need a new hat since I just got a new God of War hat that I just started wearing but I think my next has is likely to be this cool NES Controller hat, something I would recommend for anybody else out there that also spent much of their lives with the NES!

The incredibly nerdy people over at SuperHeroStuff are selling this sweet grey Nintendo Entertainment System controller hat for just $21.99!  The hat is a snapback hat so you can adjust it to fit your head which in my experience is a lot better than those hats with elastic (like my God of War cap of which I am on my third one because I love the design so much), which take no time to wear out and suddenly even the lightest gust of wind can steal the cap from your head like the playground bully you hated in school.

It kind of amazes me when I sit back and think about the fact that I have been playing video games for over 24 years now.  All those years ago, I started my gaming addiction with my NES (which I still have and it works) and I have a lot of fond memories of growing up playing games like Super Mario Bros, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Battletoads, Duck Hunt and many others.  That is why I am so fond of this NES controller shirt and I am sure that anybody else that grew up with a NES will be too!

The awesome geeks over at SuperHeroStuff are selling this nostalgic NES controller shirt for just $19.99!  Right now, they only have a size large in stock but other sizes are on order so if you need a different size, keep checking back and I am sure they will have them in the next few days.

I would love to know how many of you grew up with an NES?  Do you still play it?  Let me know in the comments and feel free to share your favorite NES games as I am always looking for new ones to try!

The Most Unique TARDIS Cosplay Ever [pic]

In the past, I have posted a number of fantastic TARDIS clothing items but nothing like this.  A while back I posted a TARDIS dress that opened up to show you the inside of the TARDIS.  Well, if you take that idea to the next step, you get this spectacular TARDIS cosplay below!

Sadly, I’m not sure who this girl is that is sporting this very unique TARDIS cosplay which features the TARDIS control panel, a bunch of lights and a jacket that looks like the outside of the TARDIS so if you know who she is, please let us know in the comments below so we can give her credit for this awesome costume!

I’d like to travel to the center of her TARDIS!

Ok, that probably wasn’t appropriate but given this past weekend’s episode of Doctor Who, it was the most fitting joke I could come up with.
