Those who like to game usually border between avid fan and fanatic (I know from personal experience!), which is most likely the latter when it comes to the [Steampunk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steampunk-espresso-machine) Nintendo Controller Coffee Table. Made by Charles Lushear, the Steampunk Nintendo Controller Coffee Table is crafted from [reclaimed materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topographic-coffee-table) from Marina Del Rey in California as well as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and features a rustic appearance that gives it an air of both quality and history.

Built with a striking attention to detail, the Steampunk Nintendo Controller Coffee Table is priced by the designer at $2,600, which means you'll have to really be an avid fan to take the plunge. Whatever your decision, head on over to Lushear's Etsy shop called the [BohemianWorkbench](http://www.etsy.com/shop/BohemianWorkbench?ref=seller_info) to learn more about his other creations.
