Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Super Mario Bros. Subwoofer

July 23, 2007

So this bad boy is quite obviously homemade, but it was clearly created by a video-game- loving-geek who also loves music. I can't even begin to consider what type of dwelling this would work well with, but I commend the creator for his or her gumption and enthusiasm for vintage geek design. What do you think? Does this look like something a grown up math nerd would create to agitate his or her spouse or does it look like a chic retro-inspired piece that would spark conversation?

Cool, but I'd buy it only for a kids present.

My boyfriend sent me a link to this last week....and now he's making one. While I think it's cool...we're moving in together in a month, and that doesn;t match anything. I said he can make a subwoofer, but that design just won't work in my new apt.

I don't think it's geeky chic, but it is kinda cool. But I agree with glam sugar and Cherryluv. I wouldn't match anything in my room...

I agree with glam sugar. I love Mario and Yoshi, but I sadly wouldn't buy it, hehe. It wouldn't match anything I already own. *unless I find bricks and bring them into my house...haha* :P
