From one gamer to another, here are my list of top gifts for gamers to wow the socks off of any nerd.

2. Custom Pet Pokemon Cards
Turn your pet into a custom pokemon card! While this is a digital product, you can have this printed out at any print shop and it makes the perfect personalized gift for gamers who are also pet owners. This is seriously one of the coolest products I've seen, and it's not limited to dogs and cats—all animals are welcome and can be turned into a custom card!
3. Mechanical Keyboards
An excellent gift for a PC gamer or someone who's into asmr zen-type setups. While it might seem odd to gift someone a keyboard, the right mechanical keyboard can be a thoughtful gift that shows someone how much you know about them. Customize the sound, color, and accent keys any way you please! If nothing else, it looks darn good in a gaming setup.

5. Custom Controller

6. Gaming Lamps
There are oodles of these out there, but this Minecraft lamp concept has to be one of the most well done. I'm always conflicted about ordering gaming furniture because it tends to feel cheap and oddly placed, but this lamp is not only cool on its own, but every Minecraft fan that rolls through will flip out at this awesome piece.

For that friend who has a switch carrying case, and uses it. Any Nintendo fan would absolutely love this, and if you're trying to save a buck or two this is a great way to go.
