I’ve decided to change the title of this particular feature to Geek Out, rather than Retro Arcade. Mainly because there’s way more geeky products out there than old school arcade stuff, but also because I need a place to just, you know, hang and be myself. You know what I’m talking about my fellow Geek-burgers.
In any case, let me know what you think… If you guys were digging the retro stuff*, I’ll bring it back. But otherwise, get ready to… Geek out!
To kick this off, I’m totally digging this Nintendo family tree shirt by NerdyShirts… It depicts every single iteration of the console, from the Famitsu, to the DS. I also really like the fact that’s very light and subtle, while still being pretty complex. So from far away, it’ll look like you’re wearing a haute couture t-shirt**, but up close, you look like a super smart video game historian. Two missions accomplished!
If you really want to get fancy, take a red pen, and put a check mark next to every iteration of the NES you’ve owned at some point in your life. I’m not sure if it’s awesome, or sad, that my version of this shirt would be one big red check-mark.
Here's a close-up:

*And no worries, I’m still going to post retro stuff here. I know you were all worried. Right?
**Yes, I totally know what haute couture is, and how it involves t-shirts.
