The Tetris Cart Clock

fdemarco — Sat, 13 Oct 2007 13:00:00 EDT

I love Etsy. They always come through with some of the greatest home made gaming crafts. This little Tetris cart clock sold for a measly $18, but if you have a little time and knowhow, you could easily make one yourself. All you need is an old Nintendo cart, a drill, some inexpensive clockworks (available at almost any store with craft supplies), a plastic stand and some glue. I've actually made a few clocks in my time (just ask any of my friends about Christmas 2002) and they are incredibly easy and cheap to put together and the results are always great. Try it, you may like it. More »

The DIY Donkey Kong Clock

fdemarco — Sun, 22 Apr 2007 19:00:00 EDT

Will D'angelo of the Wiicast website has created this amazing Donkey Kong clock. All the materials were purchased at a local art supply store for a mere fifteen dollars. He doesn't say where he acquired the images from, but it's not terribly difficult to come up with screenshots from one of Nintendo's most famous games (no, they are not hand painted). After putting the whole framework together, he created new 80's style retro hands for the clockworks to finish it off and... voila, instant retro gaming clock awesomeness! Flynn De Marco More »

Website Tokyo Times took a trip to Japan's nerd gamer nirvana town, Akihabara and snapped a bunch of photos of the various gaming knicks and knacks for sale. The one that stood out the most for me was this awesome Super Mario Brothers wall clock. It's a bit hard to see in this photo, but the face is an underwater scene featuring a Blooper and a Cheep-Cheep along with the requisite Mario bricks and a second hand made to look like a flame bar.

Clips: Pong Clock

I just happened to get my Pong Clock in the mail on my birthday. It's pretty cool, though I'm a little bummed it doesn't have an option to run off of batteries. There's no way I'm going to be able to mount this on the center of some wall. More »

Tetris Alarm Clock of Despair

Brian Crecente — Fri, 14 Apr 2006 08:00:36 EDT

I suppose if you're a Tetris addict you'll want to pick up this little travel alarm clock, but it seems a bit to messy for my taste. It would be cool if it was a better reproduction of the game and maybe played a touch of Russian folk music to wake you up in the morning. More »
