Retro decor with Blik’s new Atari surface graphics

Blik, a company whose whole schtick is making “surface graphics” — basically stickers you put on your walls for decorations — has added Atari to its collection.

Now available are wall graphics for three Atari classics — Centipede, Asteroids, and Pong. Put ’em wherever you want — your living room wall, that spot behind your toilet, or all over your kitchen cabinets. They’re $45 a piece, and come as complete sets with everything you’ll need to re-enact your favorite retro gaming scene.

My wife and I got a few wall graphics to decorate our daughter’s nursery. Not videogame-related, but same idea. The end result looks great, but let me tell you — these things are a pain in the ass to apply. Rubbing out air bubbles for days, let me tell you. And imagine tearing one of your graphics in your $45 set of decals… yikes! Those with more patience (and steadier hands) will probably have better results, but proceed with caution.
