Culinary Video Game Re-creations

There are all sorts of instructables out there detailing the steps to mimic various props from several videogames, but I've noticed (at least a cursory search yielded) a lack of edible such things.

I mean, there is this cake, but surely, with all the games out there, some of them must have some notable comestibles worthy of re-creation. Or am I really out of the loop (I'm not a gamer, myself)?

In a nutshell, anyone here ever try making something food-related from a video game? I'd love to see if anyone has attempted something similar to my first instructable.

For those of you in the know, the cake is not a lie.

Pac Man was inspired by a pizza I think. There used to be Pac Man cereal... And donkey kong cereal... And, I'm sure, millions of pac man, ms pac man, and Mario cakes. And a video game called Burger Time And a more recent game called Sneak King

Although Iwatani has repeatedly stated that the character's shape was inspired by a pizza missing a slice, he admitted in a 1986 interview that this was a half-truth and the character design also came from simplifying and rounding out the Japanese character for mouth, kuchi

This sounds like fun! Next time I have an excuse for cake it's going to be classic video game time.
