Here’s a quick fix for all you Nintendo nerds!

Looking to light up your life while getting 1-Up on your geek mates? Leaping from the levels of Super Mario Bros to your desktop – it’s an illuminating idea straight out of the Mushroom Kingdom!

Simply plug in and press. No USB socket free? No problem. The lamp also runs off of two pairs of your household AA batteries – no magic required!

Currently up for grabs in a choice of 1-Up green or Power-Up red, it’ll cost you less than 100 Gold Coins (or $10 in United States Dollars) – the LED Mushroom Lamp is available now through ThinkGeek.
