Talk about having a steady hand and lots of patience! I know we love the Thumby and tiny consoles like this little Game Boy that Brandon told me to put in my mouth for a bet on a video (and it tasted like oil), but this could be one of the smallest consoles that I've ever seen in my entire life.
The creation comes to us from the mind of X user BitBlt_Korry, and while it looks fantastic and is undoubtedly the kind of niche thing that my brain loves, they have admitted that the controls are the 'absolute worst'. Listen, it's not every day you see a tiny arcade machine with a working screen that you have to use a small piece of wood to play that also has an outer shell made of paper, so I'm digging it. Would I play a game on it for more than 2 minutes? Probably not. Would it crush under my hands? Probably. Would my toothpick break it in 0.48 seconds? Probably

The video above shows BitBlt_Korry using a toothpick to play Brick Breaker, while a follow-up video posted underneath shows them playing something called 'Space Shooter,' which looks remarkably like Space Invaders. And when I say 'remarkably,' it's the exact same game.
I think I would tend to agree that this would be an absolute nightmare to play unless you had hands with fingers that came to a point like some sort of goblin, but I love the idea. As I've said previously, any tech replicas (or 'techplica as I shall now call them) that are oversized or super tiny make me feel like a kid at Christmas. Just check out this super-sized Game Boy Color Special Edition, and you'll get what I mean!
Would you rock this super tiny paper arcade? Let us know in the comments!
