The King of Games: Reprints ship out in July!
Phist | 7:52 AM on 06.29.2007 6 comments


Any shirt whores out there in Dtoid land? Well, this post's for you...



With companies like Bathing Ape, the Japanese have proven their leadership role in hipster shirt culture. The King of Games is no n00b either, they make amazing retro Nintendo gear.









The last time I checked and had enough money (5040 yen / $40 US) to buy a Famicom shirt, they were sold out in my size. Their shirts sell out quick every time they restock. The Nintendo World store in NYC had some of the Zelda and Gameboy shirts in stock, but for over $50 (ouch, do not want).

In addition to being a shirt whore, packaging definitely is a big selling point for me. The King of Games hits the bullseye:


Reprints go on sale at midnight on July 1st and ship out on the 14th. Get 'em while they're hot and crispy, kids.




Check out the end of this YouTube, Japanese commercials FTW.

I've been dying to get my hands on the Mother SMAAAAAAASH! shirt for a while. The Zelda Anniversay hoodies are great too, but at around $130 for a video game themed hoodie, it's a stretch.
