Geek up the kitchen with the Gamepad Chopping Board, which brings vintage Nintendo into the culinary world.
Gamers, or anyone who grew up with a console in the home, will instantly recognize the design of the Gamepad Chopping Board. The accessory takes on the vintage NES controller that was released back in 1985. As one can see, it's an exact replica of the original product, only it's blown up to a larger size and it only serves the purpose of severing vegetables and meat. The top is constructed from solid glass to handle the knife, while the bottom is secured with non-slip rubber feet. The board is also stain and odor-resistant making it easy to take care of. This is the ideal kitchenware to have for the chef who has a geeky persona.
