This gift is perfect for gamers — especially if you can’t find an SNES Classic
With Nintendo’s $80 Super NES Classic Edition in such short supply, there are going to be a lot of disappointed people this holiday season. You could turn to eBay, where the adorable, miniature Super Nintendo Entertainment System is selling for over $200 apiece.
But you shouldn’t do that. Who wants to pay nearly triple the price for a holiday gift? No one!
And that’s exactly why you should turn to an excellent alternative this holiday: Pixel Pals.
These little light-up displays are inexpensive, impressive-looking, and tremendously easy to use. Best of all, they’re the perfect salve for “I couldn’t get a Super NES Classic anywhere. I’m sorry!”

I got one of these guys in the mail from PDP, the company that makes them. Here’s a lit up 8-bit Super Mario, from “Super Mario Bros. 3” for the original NES:
Even though I was sent this one, I’d happily buy more. At just $14.99, it’s a steal. These are officially licensed, to boot.
It operates with a simple on/off switch on the back. There’s even a sweet “Super Mario Bros. 3” sticker!
