lol, you'd look like a tool wearing one of those... especially the atari joystick bwahahaha

Constructacon · 29th Aug 2005, 07:58

NESbuckle is still for teh win for me. You'd look a knob (really) wearing the ataribuckle.

BTW forum link in the story goes back to the story

Seems to be one of those things where if a girl wears one, it looks hot, but if a guy wears one, he's a dork :P

I use that line anyway.

The NESBuckle is still pretty decent, it's not too big for a belt buckle. The rest however, are pants.

Kipman725 · 29th Aug 2005, 12:58

I want the xbox one :P

adamjones01101 · 29th Aug 2005, 13:31

yeah, the models all look like tools with those on, except for the NESbuckle, because it's not too big. The xbox one, in particular, wouldn't make you out to be a geek, it'd make you out to be a retard.

You do realise that the Xbox buckle is a parody made by Bit-Tech, right?

Right?

gpw111 · 29th Aug 2005, 15:05

I'll wait until u can get an actual Xbox on ur belt - or perhaps even an Xbox 360.

If ur friends all had the controllers on their belts then it would be just like havin a gameboy or psp, they could just plug into ur belt and play

Kipman725 · 29th Aug 2005, 15:49

erm all of you gaming in that area might look a little odd..

leviathan18 · 29th Aug 2005, 17:17

i used the rambus thing you have to put in the slots when they werent used as a keychain, but a nes pad as belt LOL

Someone needs to sell chromed ISA card buckles tbh.

sui_winbolo · 29th Aug 2005, 21:50

The only one that looks good is the NES one. The rest are pretty stupid IMHO.

The_Pope · 30th Aug 2005, 00:41

It's all interesting feedback: it seems the original NESBuckle has some retro chic as well as vague practicality. All the new ones seem to be a step too far - not one person has said "oh, cool - now I can wear my favourite SNES Street Fighter gamepad on my belt". It will be interesting to see if the new models sell, or are quietly dropped from the range.

The Atari controller is something that should never have been turned into a belt buckle. For this reason, we had to make it. Wear it for instant nostalgia and to be the hit at your next party or crowded subway.

Anybody else think what's highlighted would be a very bad idea?
