For most people, a wallet is made from leather or some other common textile. Now, designer NilesZ is introducing a new wallet made from 100% original Atari 2600 games; each unit is made by hand and requires over 2 hours of meticulous assembly. Four incredibly strong neodymium rare earth magnets are glued into holes tapped in the shell to keep the wallet closed, and industrial-grade adhesives are used to secure the magnets in place. According to its maker, the only piece of the original game not used in the wallet design is the screw. (Credit: NilesZ.com)

Wouldn't those magnets damage the magstrips on your credit cards?

I thing that storing cards with MAGNETIC strips in a container with
magnetic latches would be a bad idea, but just call me a little old
fashioned.
