So this year we went to an "80's" themed party, and thus had to dress appropriately. Of course, knowing us, we couldn't do anything simple and/or easy, so we went as NES controllers. Notice we even have a cord and a plug :) Of course, they weren't exactly very "mobility-conscious" if you will, so we had our 80's style clothes underneath for when we took off the big boxes.
Awesome is that we won the costume contest, and the prize was one of those videogame paddle thingies that plugs directly into your TV and plays like five games! w00t!
MAKING OF:
