Why do companies always think we want to sit on the floor? Chairs made for gamers always involve just a seat on the damn floor, no matter how expensive they are. Even when they include all kinds of crazy speakers and stuff, these chairs fail to include legs. We're never expected to be more than a foot off the ground. Why do we need specialized chairs anyway? Having our own little chairs on the floor makes us feel like pets.Even back in the late '80s, furniture companies were making these chairs. This vintage Super Mario Bros. chair doesn't have any extreme features (or legs) but it does have a cute little jumping Mario. That makes it far less useless as a display piece, though it's equally lacking as a chair.

What's awesome about the DS? Well, a lot of things -- but one of the best is that it's portable and can go wherever you can go (within reason, of course). But what about those times when you really want to play at home? Where do you sit? Sumo wants the answer to be in -- or on, or around -- one of their luxury beanbag chairs, and to that end, they sent us a chair to check out while we were getting some DS on.
