Who need’s Wi-Fit when you can get some aerobic exercise 8-bit style. Put your feet to work with this giant floor mat NES controller. Here’s what you will need to get the job done.

  • an NES system and controller (of course)
  • 3×5 foot piece of cardboard
  • 46 feet of insulated wire
  • a roll of aluminum foil
  • clear packing tape
  • 32 sheet of construction paper
  • some grey, red, and black felt
  • soldering gun
  • patience and time to watch this video

Just image playing Track and Field on this bad boy. I’m sure you’d get a better work out than you would on the Wi-Fit.
