You have to give credit to whoever over at Jennings Ford Direct (the U.K.-based Ford dealership behind this project) came up with all of these video game console cars. This series features eight consoles in total, all of which have been reimagined as literally mobile gaming devices. There's something for gamers of all kind here as these video game console cars feature everything from the Atari 2600 to the recently released Nintendo Switch.
Of all these video game console cars the Sega Genesis looks the most natural as an automobile. The Atari 2600 car is probably the next-best design as its bulky and boxy shape makes it look like a concept car straight out of the 1980s. While video games and cars are an odd mashup the creatives over at Jennings Ford Direct prove that anything can look good with wheels on it so long as the person designing it has a ton of imagination on tap.
