ThinkGeek Prank 8-bit Tie Becomes Reality
The 8-bit Tie started out as an April Fool’s Day prank product by ThinkGeek, but the public demand has been so overwhelming that they are actually going to create this previously fake product.
A few of us monkeys at ThinkGeek had this great shared dream a few months ago. In it, the whole world was 8-Bit, just like the video games we grew up on. We found ourselves having to leap from platform to platform, to search for pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom, and to fight scary mutated plants and animals. The music was awesome (and still stuck in our heads) but the coolest part was what we were wearing: a tie. But not just any tie, an 8-Bit tie!
