This iPhone Case Doubles as a Retro Gaming Handheld

When it comes to mobile games, it’s nice to have an iPhone on hand, what with all the crisp visuals and exciting sound effects. But even the most tech-savvy gamer must still get a little nostalgic when thinking about their old classic Game Boy. Now, gamers can get the best of both worlds with the Wanle Gamers Console For iPhone.

Pop this case onto your iPhone, and your modern smartphone will be transformed into a nostalgic gaming haven of the past. The monochrome screen and simple button layout of this handheld will definitely evoke memories of a time when gaming was much simpler and Tetris was pretty much as cool as it got. Speaking of Tetris, that’s one of the ten classic games available on this console, alongside other favorites like Snake, Formula One Racing, and Tank. Keep in mind that the LCD screen is more like the old Game & Watch games than the Game Boy.

The Wanle Gamers Console For iPhone brings the past into the present, and will bring back fond memories of a simpler era. It’s yours for just $33.99 in the Technabob Shop.

This Retro Bluetooth Speaker Looks Straight out of the 1950s

Modern technology can be a double-edged sword sometimes. On one hand, technology can make life easier – for example, we can now listen to music with impressive clarity and a thumping bass, instead of having to deal with crackly vinyl. On the other hand, the modern equipment doesn’t really have the aesthetic charm of early electronic gear. Now, get the best of both worlds with Lofree Poison wireless speaker.

This portable, wireless speaker looks like it’s straight out of the 1950’s, but it actually streams your music via Bluetooth (which was barely just a figment of people’s imaginations back then!). Thanks to high-quality bass driver, and dual 10-watt amps, you’ll enjoy powerful low-end and clear mids and trebles every time you put on your music.

The six-hour battery life guarantees you won’t run out of juice while you’re head-banging to your favorite tunes, and the size is just lightweight enough to fit perfectly on your desk or coffee table. Plus, it’s got an FM radio tuner, complete with an old school analog dial if you want to give that a listen.

Enjoy high-quality audio, but stream it from a nostalgic device that brings back the past. Get the Lofree Poison wireless speaker for just $79.99 in the Technabob Shop.
