Retro Inspired 8-Bit Mario Bros USB Computer Mouse V2

Those of you who are into retro gaming will no doubt be interested in these Mario Bros computer mice, which comie in both Mario and Golden Star flavours.

Unfortunately as cool as they look these mechanical, 2 button computer mice, apart from throwing base ergonomics out of the window (they look especially uncomfortable to use), are rather basic affairs and don’t even offer a scroll wheel - but I suspect that picking fluff off the mouse ball every month only serves to further the retro appeal.

Compatible with Windows, Mac and Linus based operating systems these novel Mario inspired computer mice are available from Think Geek for $24.99.

    Hi Katlin,

    We checked and, yes, the linked to store appears not to be selling this item anymore. A quick search discovered this site, however, that appear to be selling the mouse:

    http://mgrsti3030s.seamlesstech.biz/templates/frmTemplateR.asp?CatalogID=9879&SearchYN=N&subFolderID=179

    We should stress that this site is unknown to us, however.

    Hope this helps.
