In case you didn’t see this on Facebook over the weekend …
This past Saturday the fam and I drove to Dallas to attend a friend’s wedding. My friend Darren is a big — no, huge — video game collector. His collection blows mins away, not only in volume, but in value.
Here is a picture I took of Darren’s groom’s cake.
I watch a lot of those cake shows so I know they can do stuff like this, but, wow. It was even more impressive to see in person, and I wish I had brought a better camera with me. Each cart had little labels on them, and the whole thing was edible. One detail a lot of non-nerds might not notice is that the white cartridge in the front is Donkey Kong — which, in fact, is a white cartridge in real life, too. Someone obviously put a lot of work and detail into that cake. Truly awesome.
That is frigging sweet… Both literally and figuratively!
I’m surprised he let anyone cut it. Collectors will collect ANYTHING!
It’s an original sunnyvale heavy sixer as well..
Attention to detail is excellent. I wonder if there was a label on the bottom of it..
Wow. That is one awesome cake.
That is absolutely AWESOME!!!! I couldn’t stop smiling when I saw the photo…such amazing childhood memories are attached to that Atari system!!! I soooo want that cake! Thanks for posting and making my day! :-)
wow that is awesome
