These are possibly the coolest sweat pants ever. Whoever had the idea to transfer the Asteroids’ design to vintage workout pants is a nerd-genius! For those of you who don’t know, these are pants designed after the 1979 Atari game called Asteroids. Players had to dodge and shoot asteroids to amass points. The material of these awesome pants is light and breathable, perfect for keeping cool and dry during an intense thumb workout.
The indie game VVVVVV by Anders Ekermo was a recent cult favourite. A pair of knitted socks with a picture of Captain Veridian, the games protagonist, sold for $10 200 on Ebay. This was great news until the highest bidder refused to pay, along with the other top ten bidders. Eventually, the socks sold for $320 and a total amount of auctioned goods totaling $600 was donated to the Child’s Play Charity.
If the smile on this handsome fellow’s face doesn’t say it all, let me tell you that this Mario Bros. vest will have geek ladies everywhere throwing their Koopa bras at you.

Unfortunately, they do not provide invincibility. NOTE: we are not liable for physical or psychological injuries that may occur when jumping on turtles or mushrooms while wearing these cuff links.
Show your love for Mother Earth and Mother Board with this stylish motherboard headband for her. Not only does it support the green movement by reusing a computer’s motherboard, it looks fashionable too. Just to warn all the girl friends of game developers: try and act surprised when you get an outdated graphics attached to a rubber band for Christmas this year. Remember, it’s the thought that counts.
Girls struggling to win over the attention of their video game playing boyfriends have found the solution to their problem in the form of a tight, tubey Gameboy dress. This tube dress is perfect for warm summer nights or even for going clubbing during GDC or PAX. Note however that the costumes during these conferences can get a lot crazier than a vintage Gameboy tube dress.
