Nintendo-Themed Valentine's Chocolates Harder to Get Than a Wii

Posted by Bryan Christian


Find yourself in love with a serious video-game geek? Better not mention that you missed out on the totally sold-out Mii chocolates created especially for love-struck nerds by Nebraska designer Paul Pape.

This box of candy has it all. In fact, the box is even part of the gift. Crafted to look like a game unit with a very sweet message on the top, the box opens to reveal two chocolate figures with little red-hot hearts on their shirts. You can choose to have the traditional boy and girl grouping, or any combination of the two, so give the gift to a loved one or share with a friend.

SOLD. OUT. Drat. And we were gonna buy like 5 boxes and throw a huge Mii "grouping," if you know what we mean. Next year!
