If you enjoy Mario Kart Wii as much as I do, check out this radio controlled Mario Kart. This will probably be the closest thing you’ll get to real life Mario Kart. Unfortunately, this 1/32 scale model of Mario riding his kart can only go forward, backwards, or 360 degree turns. However, this toy will certainly keep the Mario Kart fans (and kiddies) happy.

It has been rumored for over a year that Microsoft has plans to create a portable handheld gaming system to rival the likes of Nintendo’s DS and Sony’s PSP. Unfortunately, Microsoft is keeping a tight lid on the truth. However, the artists over at T3 Magazine couldn’t resist with their speculation on what such a device would look like from Microsoft. So, they decided to take matters into their own hands. T3 has published their rendition of the possible mobile device, combining a Zune, Xbox 360, and phone into one sleek package. In fact, the hybrid device looks pretty damn good. Although, what’s up with the flat-looking analog sticks? Regardless, the concept calls for 64GB of Flash storage — GTA IV on-the-go anyone?

Instead of making a boring, ordinary table, he decided to make a NES controller/coffee table/storage box. Believe it or not, the table-sized controller is functional as can be seen in the video below. This is certainly no amateur job.
The blueprints can be found on Downes’ blog.
