Title: Arcade shirt thread
Post by: Gray_Area on November 13, 2010, 11:02:49 pm: If you like, post pictures of your arcade shirts. I'll skip repeat-posting the ones I've shown in other threads, and post the ones I just got yesterday. I found these in a casual net search. The site is 80stees.com . $22 for the Dragon's Lair, $20 for each of the rest. UPS shipping across country in five days was $8. Fast expediting - I ordered at two in the morning, Monday, they had the order out that day, and I got it Friday.

I think the Track and Field is a console port, which I didn't pay enough attention to notice before ordering, but it's close enough.

I've got a few T-shirts, which I luckily get to wear at work where I teach, I'm sure management would prefer I wear a shirt and tie which would be more becoming of the head of Computing but hey.

It's usually an easy present for people to get me.

I've also got the Donkey Kong screen cap shirt, mine is slightly different tho (love it)

Slightly obsessed with Space Invaders my favourite is the pixels one as it has the iconic invader in large pixel form on the back

I like the 'press start' one, too. I really want the side art DK at Atarigame.com, but they're out of stock. (They also have...erm, had.....cool Ms. Pac-Man and Q-bert shirts.)

The Zelda I'm not familiar with - but the graphics are just cool anyway.

Yeah the US Store is rather devoid of product :dunno, but the UK/Euro store has some nice shirts

Most of my Joystick Junkie shirts have come from re-sellers in retail shops and places like play.com and Amazon

Looking at the US Amazon store, they don't seem to have anything from them.

Ebay US does have some stuff
