Or a Sony Play Station complete with spilled soda and Blackberry.
Or maybe you'd like to go old school and sculpt an Atari System.
You'll have to stop yourself from hooking them up to a monitor because they look so real. And yes, you can even find a "Super Mario" cake at a wedding or two.

New Year's Eve Game Night Party Ideas
New Year's Eve Game Night Party Ideas
Okay, so you've got your electronic cake planned in your head, the directions on how to make it from Cool Birthday Cakes.com, so why not plan a "Game Night New Year's Eve Party." We're having one on the Eve of New Year's Eve, just to give our iCafe Woman Moderne divas some great ideas to throw their own game night.
Here's how:
1. Incorporate Video Game stations - (If you have them and the space) Nintendo Wii in the Living room, X-Box in the Family Room, Playstation in the Florida Room. You get the idea. If you don't own all of these, someone you know has one and may loan it out for the party with an invite of course.

2. Provide Board Games - Set up card tables and pillows on the floor for board games. Here are some popular ones: Uno, Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, Scene It, Taboo, Scrabble, Pictionary and of course ... Twister. Divide your guests into teams.
3. Decorate - Get balloons, streamers, New Year's Eve Party Hats, Boas and Horns from the Dollar Tree Store or Party City.
4. Game Night Snacks - Keep the food simple. Popular Game Night food choices are:
pizza, burritos, tacos, snack mix, wing dings, veggies and dip and so forth. You can do make your own individual pizzas, or burritos ... get creative with the toppings and fillings. You can also do a sundae bar. In my book, it's never too cold for ice cream. Get creative and make it fun!
Happy New Year!
