Can't move the entertainment stand... video game break. Can't move my shirt... laying down break.

DeviantART user Mathijs Sterrenburg modified his toaster to look like the original Nintendo Entertainment System. Now is the time where I would usually make a crack about a "blowing on it" if it broke, but in this case, I find such a joke is actually appropriate: if your toast is too hot, blow on it!

Who knew that a jumble of cords could be this aesthetically pleasing?

Deviant Artist Midnight Angel put together an arm blade stylized after the ones used in the Assassin's Creed video game series. Using a drawer opening mechanism, a spring for a screen door, and a throwing knife, the weapon works surprisingly smoothly. The full instructions are on Angel's page, and you can see it in action below.

As an avid fan of of Dead Island I can attest that the amount of running around in this game really does feel like exercise.

From the submitter:

Xbox's remote control requires ridiculously precise aim. I fixed that by gluing a magnifying glass to it.

I nominate him official mascot of pantsless nerds everywhere.

Looks like someone confused the portal gun with the giant suspender gun again.

Hold on, my report seems a bit jumbled. Let me blow on it and get back to you.

You couldn't leave well enough alone, could you? You had to attempt to combine the world's greatest game with a world's greatest food. You flew too close to the sun, my friend.

True story: upon playing my first computer FPS, I thought that the default WASD movement keys were a mistake so I switched changed them to the arrows. Turns out, I'm an idiot.

I mean, it's a shame to see a Gamecube give up its life like that, but surely it was a last resort?

It only took about 30 seconds for the children to realize that even though the graphics are similar, an old tape of the 1984 Winter Olympics is not very interactive.
