These CoverMe Cartridge cases from Meteor bring the retro revival movement into the tech realm. With the iPhone creating an all-new gaming platform, these CoverMe Cartridge cases pay homage to the video games from the past.

Designed for the iPhone 4, the CoverMe Cartridge cases were created to look like the backside of the old Famicom and NES cartridges. Complete with warning labels, these cases are a reminder of how fast technology has changed over the last few decades. Back in the day, playing video games was limited to arcades and basic chunky consoles, but now, thousands of games can be carried around in people's pockets, accessible with a simple press of a download button.

These CoverMe Cartridge cases are funky cases to make your new modern mobile look like a throwback to retro gaming.
