Buying for your favourite gamer for the holidays can be hard especially when you want to find them something that screams, “I love you! Now put down that controller and pay attention to me.”
Just kidding, but seriously you could buy them another game and fail to wow them or you could check out a special gamer themed gift from the list below, and guaranteed a night without a controller. Or maybe with the controller ... on vibrate.
These gifts are also good for the gamer people you’re not sexual involved with but their thank you for the gifts may not be as fun.
Most of us know the holiday season means winter is on its way so why not keep your favourite gamer warm with a knitted gamer themed hat or scarf from
Shadows of the Nyte. There’s the lovely
Nobi Nobi Boy Hat and Scarf combo for $63.50 plus shipping or a cutesy
Moogle Hat for $20 plus shipping, complete with pom-pom tassel. Kupo!
If you’re looking for something more pixelated and plastic, then look no further than bead art. Functional and pretty, you can’t go wrong with 8-bit or 16 bit art made from plastic fused beads. Pendelton’s
Ark of the Covenant has great single bead art pieces like a full colour
Wario from Warioland for $6.00 plus shipping or a Glow in the Dark
Kirby Superstar Bead Sprite for $5.00 plus shipping. Kirby would look awesome hanging from your tree this year, would he not?

Sam & Max Art Piece on Canvas for only $40 plus shipping? Looking for a small but functional gift ... then how about a
