# Retro Impersonating Electronics A Console Apple TV Decal Playfully Meddles with Your Media Setup By Amelia Roblin | Published 2012-05-29 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nes-console-apple-tv References: [ubergizmo](http://www.ubergizmo.com/2012/05/apple-tv-nes-decal/) & [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/listing/98899579/nes-console-appletv) Your broken old-school [Nintendo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dbrand-clone-of-the-kingdom) system may not have a place within your entertainment unit any longer, but it can make a hint of an appearance through NES Console Apple TV decals. The compact television accessory has been fitted with disguising gel skins that wrap around the outside and the top of the gadget. Killer Duck designed the stickers with the same grey tones and a black strip for the vent. Charming details such as the inscription and the outlines of the cable hookups and the cartridge cover establish an authenticity that references the original. Of course, this imposter is much smaller than the [video gaming machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thec64-mini) and much more modern with its rounded corners. But the NES Console Apple TV decal does not strive to deceive; rather it aims to delight. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 61% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Retro-themed Home Entertainment:** Opportunities to create novelty home entertainment products that tap into nostalgia and retro aesthetics. - **Disguise Decals:** The creation of disguise decals for modern gadgets to give them a vintage aesthetic. - **Authenticity Evocation:** Incorporating design elements of retro electronics to evoke a sense of authenticity. ### Where This Applies - **Consumer Electronics:** Integrating design elements of vintage electronics into modern consumer electronic devices. - **Gaming Accessories:** Creating gaming console decals that celebrate nostalgia. - **Vinyl Stickers and Decals:** Designing vinyl stickers and decals that feature classic electronic designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Game-Themed Console Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dbrand-clone-of-the-kingdom.md) - [90s-Style Gaming Console Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ps5-retro-darkplates.md) - [Nostalgic 90s-Inspired Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analogue-3d-funtastic.md) - [Nostalgic Gaming Console Radios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-radio.md) - [See-Through Cartridge Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modretro-m64.md) - [Vintage-Inspired Mini Gaming Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/am02-mini.md) - [Personalized Artful Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nak-studio.md) - [Shapeshifting Gamer Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-game-boy-famicon.md) - [Tiny Retro Gamer Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/open-source-games-console.md)
