A man loves his video games so much, he now wears them.



Marc Kerger is the inventor of a playable Tetris t-shirt. He came up with the idea back on June 6 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Tetris video game.



He posted a video on YouTube showing how the t-shirt works.




Kerger says the shirt uses 128 LEDs, an Arduino Uno microcontroller board, 3D-printed housing and soft material for the buttons. It is powered by four rechargeable AA batteries.



The shirt doesn't look that comfortable to wear, and its probably best to play the game by looking at a mirror.
