Ximending Controller Bench

Snapped by my friend Kat W. as we wandered around Ximending - one of Taipei's painfully hip and trending shopping areas, as well as a great place to nose around for video game related stuff, but that usually happens in stores, not on benches.

The application apparently didn't manage to hold on both benches, but I thought it was pretty cute and clever, all things considered. The people sitting on the bench next to us thought we were crazy as we took a photograph; I've gotten the same reaction photographing some of Taipei's astonishingly cool regular paint-on-wall graffiti as well.
