Geeked-Out: Giant Working SNES Controller

by Chad Lakkis on August 29, 2008 at 4:02 pm

Matt LaBoone, inspired the Giant NES coffee table (created by Kyle Downes), assembled a four-foot long fully functional SNES controller. Matt’s passion for the Super Nintendo stems in part to the fact he grew up playing the console. In addition to that, I am going to guess that he spent his non gaming time building really cool things.

Way to go Matt’gyver! Check out a few more images of this oversized retro gaming peripheral after the jump.

Have something you think we should show on Geeked-Out? Email it to us.

    I haven’t seen that many, but maybe we should buy giantcontroller.com and showcase them all.
