Show and Tell: In Dreamland, cake eats you!

Filed under: Show and Tell

Okay, we admit it. We're cheating a little. Instead of letting someone come to us with their nifty gaming goodness, we saw something that was simply so awesome we had to ask if we could share it with you ... and luckily, NeoGAFfer cloudwalking had no problem with us showing off this incredible cake. Hey, if it was ours, we'd want to show the world as well!

Birthday girl cloudwalking's good pal jarosh had this Kirby cake made, but the fun didn't stop there. As he was slowly dismembered devoured, the pair had fun changing his features around, as you can see in the gallery ... though the reddish filling on the knife is a little disturbing. Poor Kirby! We're not sure we could have made ourselves eat the little guy. Then again, it could be revenge for the times we've been inhaled in various Smash Bros. matches.

Can you top a nummy Kirby cake? If so -- or if you have anything else you want to show off -- you too can be in this spot, with everyone cooing over your awesome stuff. Just take some pictures and send them to showmeit at dsfanboy dot com. We'll take care of the rest.

Show and Tell: Etch-a-Lite

Sometimes, it's not the size of the collection that matters, but rather the general level of awesome inherent within. Reader Kuthakun owns a pair of DS Lites that are so cool that they're worth any ten regular Lites. He went through Lasatorium to cement further fandom into a pair of white Lites, thus ensuring his place in the DS Fanboy Show and Tell Hall of Fame. Or would, if such a place existed. One of these beauties is shown here; hit the jump to check out the other one. You can see a couple more pictures in the photoset at Flickr.

So what do you have lying around the house that you'd like to show off? You too can be in this spot, with everyone cooing over your awesome gaming gear. Just take some pictures and send them to showmeit at dsfanboy dot com. We'll take care of the rest.

Show and Tell: Getting crafty

We thought it might be nice to take a break from giant, heaping game collections (because we have more!) for something a little more low key, like this case made by reader Audrey. The low key color scheme looks pretty nice with the black DS Lite, and we like anything that snuggles our handhelds. Now we kind of want to hire her to make cases for us. She has a whole set on Flickr called "Things I made," and if you're into crafts, it's worth perusing.

Are you crafty? Are you proud of your game-related stuff? You too can be in this spot, with everyone cooing over your awesome gear and swag. Just take some pictures and send them to showmeit [at] dsfanboy [dot] com, and we'll take care of the rest. We've gotten lots of great submissions so far, but we always want more! Big collections, small collections, random items, your beloved DS -- take some photos and send them to us, and your stuff just might turn up here.

Show and Tell: Beware -- tears of jealousy ahead

Some people just have it all, and reader sergioalb64 seems to be in that group. As soon as we saw his enormous DS collection, we knew we would have to feature it here. Does anyone need 100 DS games and 38 styli? No, probably not, but we bet it would be really nice to have. Though deciding what to play might take a while. Like, days.

Thanks for showing us, sergioalb64. We burn with jealousy. In fact, we are so jealous that we've made a gallery just for you, so we can return to your collection at will, drooling and dreaming over all the things we don't have.

Just remember, you too can be in this spot, with everyone cooing over your awesome game-related photos and swag. Just take some pictures and send them to showmeit at dsfanboy dot com, and we'll take care of the rest. We've gotten lots of great submissions so far, but we always want more! Big collections, small collections, random items, your beloved DS -- take some photos and send them to us, and your stuff just might turn up here.

Show and Tell: Gamer babies in the house

We're not sure children really count as gaming gear, but who are we to define the boundaries of a parent's love? Don't worry, Elmer, we're just kidding -- we absolutely approve of your sending us this picture of your twin daughters, which is why we've chosen to feature them in our first edition of Show and Tell. These little dolls are only a year and a half old, and they've already mastered the art of wrangling the handhelds away from their parents ... and from those looks of intense concentration, they're already on their way to becoming serious gamers.

The proud papa even sent us a video -- you can check it out after the jump. And just remember, you too can be in this spot, with everyone cooing over your awesome game-related photos and swag. Just take some pictures and send them to showmeit at dsfanboy dot com, and we'll take care of the rest. We've gotten lots of great submissions so far, but we always want more. Thanks again to Elmer and his lovely daughters!

Show and Tell: Show off your stuff

If you're here, then it's pretty likely that you own some sort of gaming gear ... and some of you are probably masters of epic gaming collections, the sight of which would burn our retinas to ash. While we're not really coming out in favor of melted eyeballs here, we are in fact big fans of playing show and tell with our gaming stuff, and we want to see yours. T-shirts, plush armies, special gaming area, stacks and stacks of NES carts, or just a staggering pile of DS games -- whatever it is, we want you to show us. So if you have anything special that you've just been dying to rub in our faces show everyone, then this weekly spotlight is for you. Yes, you can even show us your Pokemans.

So you want to be featured on DS Fanboy? Here's what you do: take a picture or two (we prefer that they not be blurry) and send the lot to showmeit at dsfanboy dot com. Each week, we'll select someone's gaming gear and talk about it right here on the Fanboy. Pretty much anything gaming-related is fair game, but we do ask that you keep it clean. You know. For the children.
