When one has a tattoo, one needs to pick something tasteful and understated, otherwise one looks like a total tit. Videogame-themed tattoos are difficult to pull off with this in mind. The above picture is a tattoo that did not pull it off.
What you're seeing is indeed a Castle Crashers tattoo, which Major Nelson claims a "co-worker" had done this weekend. As you may observe, it is the four main knights from The Behemoth's popular Xbox Live Arcade title. The person who had this done now has to live the rest of their life with it seared into their arm. It's cute, but it's there forever.
Now if I could just get someone to do my BonerQuest tattoo ...

I'm thinking about getting a Wind Waker tattoo. I've wanted one ever since the game came out, and it stands as one of my favourite games of all time. I WANTS
"You see Jimmy, back when I was just 40 years old, there was this game called Castle Crashers! You played a as little midgets who would fend off other midgets. At the end of the level you would get to make out with a midget princess! Now let me tell you about the game where you played as a midget covered in corduroy..."
You see billy, back when we still had cars with wheels on them, we used to talk about our boners and think we were very funny. and then grandpa got drunk one night, and thats why he has a BonerQuest tattoo in his penis...
Whoever did it should get a needle in the eye.
What's it matter what his tattoo is to anyone but him? I'd much rather that than a generic tribal tattoo that seems most popular amongst lower-middle class white guys who haven't had 'tribal' ancestory for the last 4000 years.
You're unlikely to pick a tattoo that everyone likes, but that's besides the point. If you're permanently marking your skin to please others, you're going to be disappointed.
Also, bias acknowledged: I have pacman on one wrist and a ghost on the other (in thick black lines). Eventually they'll be two complete video game sleeves. And when people LOL at me for having LOLVIDEOGAMES tattooed on me, as opposed to a flaming dragon eating a flaming skull that's eating a flaming sword wrapped in a flaming rose with RAPEMURDERDEATHKILLBITCH written under it, I'll be all like YO BITCHES and eat my power pill and kick their ass (read: run like a schoolgirl).
Okay, faultymoose wins.
What shittiness
Uh.. Have you ever gotten a tattoo? The "Orange" you see is the tattoo bleeding because it's fresh. This isn't something I would get on my arm.
@LukienAkeela:
The color on tattoos fade quickly when they are exposed to sunlight on a regular basis (like tanning, for all you ladies) My fiancee just got a very nice Alice tattoo, and the colors have not faded because she keeps it under sunblock and clothing...
I won't tell you about my VG tattoo. =P Especially after the way everyone reacted to someone's CC one.
@Pime Taradox: That was close enough. I laughed.
The tattoo looks great.
Look closely at the orange knight's head and tell me it looks great.
On a brighter note, I'd never be stoopid enough to get a tattoo of one of them etched into my flesh. So, I have that going for me...
Not that one though. Maybe just a helmet, skull-and-cross or coat-of-arms style.
