8-bit Tie: From Joke to Reality
This started as an April Fool’s joke, but the 8bit tie was such a huge hit that ThinkGeek decided to start working on it as an actual product, according to Kotaku.
It’s an 8-bit graphic (think original Nintendo graphics) video game tie. I think it is seriously cool, and i want one, although I can’t think of an occasion in the past where I would have worn it if I had it. And yes, it’s a clip-on. As the article explains, you need it to be a clip-on to keep the pixelated look.
I want a big giant 8-bit hair bow, a la Ms. Pac-Man.
