Well, you have to hand it to the strategy team over at Zipcar . Arguably the largest on-demand car-sharing network, Zipcar went public last year and not long after saw its market cap cross $1 billion . It’s since fallen back, and with collaborative consumption and the market for car-sharing heating up, the big players have to make moves. Zipcar has since forged a partnership with Ford, making it the largest provider of cars for Zipcar’s University program , and, in December, the company took a controlling stake in Spain’s largest car-sharing network, Avancar . Today finds Zipcar making another strategic move to get its mitts in fellow car-sharing companies, again with a focus on universities, whose students are among the most eager adopters of car-sharing models.

This point is actually driven home by the product image itself, which clearly shows several PlayStation 2 games being stored in the locker. For $39.95, the locker holds four controllers and 15 games, or zero controllers and 30 games or whatever you can cram into its 15 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ frame. The locker also includes the pictured padlock, hence the whole “security” part. Honestly, we can’t help but point out that the locker is easily small enough for the average criminal to lift.

Then again, you probably have a good idea of where your little brother will be hiding it anyway; he’s not very bright.
