I’m a sucker for a bit of games-related merchandise, so this Nintendo-themed lamp definitely grabbed my attention. Forget about the fact that the lampshade itself features Mario in his NES days, which is enough reason for me to buy it; look at the switches. You turn your lamp on and off via an old-style NES controller. Nostalgia level up.
