OK, we were wrong. We said, prematurely, that the business card was dead, when in fact all it needed was a new case. The NES Controller Type Card Case, to be exact, a 2,900 ($31) anodized aluminum folder with a pair of compartments within one for your cards, and one for those you receive.
There are two designs, neither of which do more than the other. Each looks like an NES controller, but one has a fake mic and volume switch in addition to the fake D-Pad.
You know where were going here, though, right? The case should actually be a fully functioning controller, for an iPhone or a Nintendo DS, perhaps. And if youre going to put a USB plug on there, throw in some flash memory at the same time. Then it could be a little closer to justifying the price-tag.
