If this Zombie Gameboy is any indication the '90s are back, then this decade has returned in an undead style. This micro-chip munching version of the original hand-held gamer console is the handiwork of the blogger behind KodyKoala.com. According to the mastermind, he came across his once-treasured toy and decided to tear it up. Edging on the side of creativity rather than destruction, the handy blogger decided on a zombie motif just in time for Halloween.
Complete with a distressed vicious face, the console is equipped with a set of intimidating spindly arms made of exposed wires and Frankenstein-style feet. The body of the device is scored, scratch and discolored, and in its vice-like hands it holds the innards of a fellow technological device.
Endlessly clever, spooky and deliciously nostalgic, the Zombie Gameboy is a stroke of meaningless technological genius if there ever was one.
