Wedding gift idea for nerdy couple?

Scruffy90

What are some wedding gift idea for nerdy couple? My cousin's getting married in a few weeks and him and his fiance are fairly nerdy (scifi, cartoons, comics, videogames, etc). No clue what would be a cool gift.

A copy of Revenge of the Nerds I?  Maybe the Atari ET game?

Usually couples register their gifts somewhere, I would go with that because newlyweds need housewares  and crap like that. 

Forgive me El Guapo. I know that I, Jefe, do not have your superior intellect and education...

The first one would've been a good one if they didn't have it, and I honestly wonder how much the Atari ET is going for now.

The problem is my dumbass cousin put like 1 item on their registry and that was it lol. So i am under the assumption that these two have all of their houseware in order, especially since they've been living together for years.

Maybe some sex toys in the shape of Star Wars/Star Trek/Babylon 5/Game of Thrones or other nerd related products.

LMFAO XD. That's not a bad idea, albiet a bit inappropriate for me to give since he's family. I could see the Star Wars and Star Trek Products being made, didn't know about the others.

Well I'm not sure if there are any GoT adult toys, since gore, violence and death seems to be like 80%+ in the series... I wonder if GRR Martin ever thought of including a phallic adult toy in the novel that has a hidden knife or arrow to kill someone during....

Anyway, back to PG-13 and serious suggestions, what kind of nerdy stuff do your cousins enjoy?  Just because someone is a nerd doesn't mean that they are all into the same sci-fi or stuff, nerds also have different tastes.

 

Maybe you can look for some ideas on Google "Gifts for Nerds" or on YouTube.

The search result gave me some good ideas. 

As far as what they like, its broad. game of thrones, star wars, star trek, Marvel Cimea Universe, DC cinema uni, Game of Thrones, A bunch of video game series, Nintendo, late 80s-early 00s cartoons.

Think geek is a good idea. Keep forgetting they exist. And these two are subscribed to a bunch of boxes. No clue what they have.

At least that's what I'd get someone. I'm guessing they wouldn't care for it though.

Lmao. This would make for an awesome gag gift. Im going to buy it and ride in on it during their wedding xD

This has more of a christmassy theme to it but even for generally nerdy gift ideas, it has some good ideas. Saved my bacon last year buying presents for my mother :D

I'll give it a look. The video posted above gave me a couple of good ideas too.
