We’ll admit it, this is a bit of a random<\/em> one. First, let’s dismiss the myth \u2013 Nintendo Life Towers does not actually exist<\/em>. In fact, most of our team have always<\/em> worked remotely, although we do indeed have a small (shoe box-sized) office in a shared building at Loughborough University Science and Enterprise Park<\/a>, which we think sounds really<\/em> fancy.<\/p>\n

Shortly after we moved in to the building we attended a few of the Friday Coffee Morning pow-wows and got chatting to some of the other tenants, one of whom worked for Hedkayse<\/a>, a UK firm which produces and manufactures the world’s most indestructible cycle helmet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As keen cyclists ourselves, it’s been interesting following the progress of their business over the past few months. First their “indestructible” claim was put to the test on Channel 5’s “The Gadget Show” with huge success<\/a>. Then, the firm appeared on the BBC’s “Dragons Den” show but ultimately didn’t accept an offer of investment<\/a>. Quite the celebrity office neighbours, right?<\/p>\n

Whilst these helmets are ridiculously indestructible, the plain colour designs weren’t really our style. We were chatting one day with George Fox, Hedkayse’s Managing Director, and he asked us: “hey, you guys are creative, what if you could design your own helmet, and we’ll make it?” He went on to tell us about a new product they were planning on launching, Hedkayse Unique<\/a>, where you basically design your own pattern for the standard Hedkayse helmet.<\/p>\n

Challenge accepted! Naturally we pondered what Nintendo-inspired designs we could think of that might work, and this is what we came up with.<\/p>\n
