For gamers and meme lovers alike, a dream has become reality with the launch of the Xbox Series S toaster. This unlikely kitchen appliance started as an internet joke over a year ago, poking fun at the signature vents on Microsoft‘s petite next-gen console. But now, this novelty toaster can grace your countertop for just $39.99 exclusively from Walmart.

Beyond imprinting the iconic Xbox sphere logo onto your bread, English muffins, and waffles, this toaster offers features any respectable bread-burner should have. With six browning levels, a handy crumb tray, an LED countdown display, and a handy defrost button, this toaster aims to please. Gamers can now start their day by quite literally tasting their favorite console’s emblem.
The Xbox Series S toaster joins the coveted Xbox Series X mini fridge in Microsoft’s expanding lineup of meme-inspired appliances. The fridge gained immense popularity last year when fans clamored for the fridge-shaped Xbox that was initially just a marketing render. Now, it’s a real — and sold-out — collectible celebrating gaming culture and community.
While not the first or only gaming tech to inspire real working appliances, the Xbox toaster and fridge show how influential internet culture has become. Past inspirations include Bungie’s Destiny toaster the game’s Tricorn icon onto bread and Razer’s promise of a functioning toaster version of its ‘Toaster” laptop concept. But only Microsoft has made its April Fool’s joke into a Walmart reality.
The popularity and availability of these gimmicky home devices open the door for more meme-powered appliances on the horizon. An Xbox microwave, kettle or washing machine can’t be too far behind. Because truly dedicated Xbox fans will surely want to see that iconic green logo on all their household appliances and food items — imprinting their gamer lifestyle onto every single daily activity.
So for those eager to let their gamer flag fly high and proud, the Xbox Series S toaster delivers hot, fresh memes straight to your kitchen counter. Let the dreams of internet culture continue to become reality.
