Prepare to gouge your eyes out at some of the designs and prices

EasyCure · « **Reply #1 on:** February 03, 2009, 07:14:55 PM »

I wonder if they'll let me trade in a few game shirts I have, like the GH:WT shirt that came with my preorder thats still in the bag they gave me..

40 BUCKS FOR A F****** T-SHIRT!

Not even Hot Topic sells them at THAT price.

YEAH! For that price i might as well buy a cheaply made, ugly, green hoodie with a gold foiled outline Triforce because colored foil is all the rage right now with scenesters (and appearantly gamers..)!

I don't know what makes me want to puke more... the $150 they're asking for that Bowser jacket, or the horrible design of said jacket...HIS FUCKING FACE IS CUT OFF!

Bowser is at least worth 3 times that price!

Did you just misquote YOURSELF?

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #8 on:** February 03, 2009, 07:56:30 PM »

I do like the bob-bomb shirt it is really cute(though they don't seem to know his name) and the cartridge one.

AV · « **Reply #9 on:** February 03, 2009, 09:05:39 PM »

i don't hate all the designs but really now its ridiculous. Buy a new game or buy a T-Shirt ?
hmmmmmmm

I know gaming is doing well during this Depression, but no way people are going to pay those prices . They are going to have warehouses of this stuff that never sold, or going to need to drop price quickly.

Dammit! i was hoping no one would notice... meh.. I'm leaving it for lulz

Djunknown · « **Reply #11 on:** February 04, 2009, 12:01:27 AM »

IIRC, I saw some of those designs from a Japanese gaming apparel store. I don't think it was King of Games, but it something along those lines. That might explain the ridiculous prices...

Gamestop now has a Cafe Press store? Oh wait...those are professionally created. Eek.

Something's wrong when even *I* don't want to buy Nintendo stuff.

Spinnzilla · « **Reply #14 on:** February 04, 2009, 09:35:02 AM »

Really good price for scene kids who nothing about nintendo, but still buy 1-up shirts because the look "stylish".

It's a sad commentary on their audience that the sizes go up to 4XL...

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #17 on:** February 04, 2009, 06:27:48 PM »

Sounds like those non-casual non-WiiFit customers.

I don't know whats sadder, that, or when someone who can easily fit in a size L wears a 4XL instead because its fashionable. Good thing that "style" is pretty much dead, now everyone who fits into a L comfortably wear XS because its the new cool thing to do, not just emo kids! :-D

Sorry, way off topic. Those shirts are horrible and i dont care if they were half the price they're selling them for, or less, they're just plain ugly clothes!

I like how Nintendo shirts are 40 and WoW shirts are 10.

There's a monthly fee for wearing those shirts.

Nintendo's are clearly a much better value.

You can get the same-type stuff at Hot Topic (go ahead and act like you don't at least walk in there every now and then), for like $10.
