If IKEA Made Geeky Furniture Part 7: Nintendo (Again)

There are a few sight gags for those who are longtime gamers...

I made this one before the Nintendo futons, but then I thought - too childish. And then I reconsidered for a couple of reasons: no one has ever made a Game Boy themed blanket cover (at least that I can find) - though a company called Soft Machine makes these cool pillows. Also, why not make a few items for the kids? Or for the guys who will never grow up (and have very very patient girlfriends).

If you are so inclined, I’m sure you could get a blanket/duvet cover like this made - either through screen-printing or some serious quilting/patch work.

I’m sure you can recognize the bedside table. The lamp on the other hand….well I use to own one of those! Handhelds have come a long way.

Here is an uncluttered picture:

Ah memories.

  1. I could actually get some funding for this… but I have had zero success at finding a blanket manufacturer. Do you have any idea of what websites/ companies I could look into?

    • With this one I actually sent emails to the license holders and manufacturers of Nintendo blankets - no dice yet!

      I am starting to make some inroads with manufacturers, and when I do I’ll give you a heads up.
