I spent a great deal of my youth playing our Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Playing games like Super Mario Bros., Metroid, the Legend of Zelda, Mega Man and Final Fantasy. I whiled away both summer, fall, winter and spring days and nights trying to perfect my strategy against Metal Man or leveling up my Fighters, White Mage and Black Mage for that final battle with Ganon. I lived, breathed and ate that NES. Its controller has emblazoned itself onto my subconscious for all eternity.
So you can imagine my glee when I saw this NES Controller Backpack. This officially licensed Nintendo backpack is comprised of one large main compartment, three external zipper pockets and two net storage pockets. The backpack features a padded inside panel (good for toting around a laptop…or your NES console) and heavy-duty padded shoulder straps for comfort as you tote around your vintage Nintendo Power Magazine collection.
The bag measures about 12″ X 17″ X 6″ and features the original NES controller design prominently displayed on the back. It can all be yours for 40 Rupees (or $40).


The Wii sensor bar isn’t exactly the most durable of all devices, and it sure poses quite the hassle whenever you want to carry it around with you to a neighbor’s place. Not only will you look awkward carrying it, it is a pretty fragile piece of tech. This third-party retractable Wii sensor bar reduces the risk of breakage while making it all the more portable when shrunk. No idea on whether it is as sensitive as the original though, but the $25 price tag shouldn’t pinch your pockets too hard when it comes to having a portable backup sensor bar.
