We know that Japan has this problem of an ageing population as more and more people spend most of their lives at work instead of doing other stuff like raising or starting a family. Well, here’s a new form of technology that will definitely turn heads - the Marriage Hunting Bra. This concept lingerie by Triumph International was specially designed to help the marriage-minded woman find a husband, and it happens by showing off just how much time remains until she wants to tie the knot. Hopefully these figures don’t run too long lest they run out of good eggs soon. The bra comes with an easy-to-read LED display, showing the number of days until the wearer’s ideal wedding date, while the white lace bra lets the feminine side of her body stand out.

Love all your 8-bit video games, especially those classics on the NES with an unnatural amount of affection? Well, thanks to ThinkGeek, you can now realize your portable 8-bit gaming dream with the Retro Mini Handheld NES System.

The Retro Mini Handheld plays all the classic 8-bit NES games you grew up with and looks pretty darn sweet with the old style giant cartridge protruding from the top. Simply pop in 4 AA batteries and jack in your favorite original NES cartridge. The built in hi-res LCD screen looks a hell of a lot better than your old crappy TV, plus the Retro Mini comes with AV out cables to connect with your newfangled flatscreen if you so desire.

It is important to note that the $49.99 Retro Mini will not be accompanied by any game, so make sure you dust off the boxes in the attic containing your NES cartridges if you want to get started. No idea if this will catch on though, since other more powerful handheld consoles like the Sony PSP does come with an NES emulator.
