I wanna get something on my license plate that shows I'm a classic arcade enthusiast. Any ideas? I tried different variations of GameOver (GmeOver, GameOvr, Game0vr, ...) but they were all taken. Pac Man is also gone. Pac Dad isn't taken

. Also 80s Gmer or 80s Gamr. Any other ideas?

You can have spaces? We can't have spaces in vanity plates up here in NH...

VA's DMV website allows it. Check this link out & select 'passenger standard issue' (I think that gives you max spaces on the plate). After you plug in your plate, it'll tell you if it's available or not.

STIKLVR
ASSMAN
LV2play

Wait are these supposed to be related to video games

1up is pretty cool

GameOver · « **Reply #4 on:** June 22, 2005, 11:02:10 pm »

I 'plugged' in 'ASSMAN' on the website, and it said it wasn't available. Neither was '1up'. But, '1upASS' is available.

crashwg · « **Reply #5 on:** June 22, 2005, 11:03:50 pm »

PAC MEN is available...

FKTARD is too.

can you imagine the looks

All available:
IHAV 2P
GIME 25
RTFM
IVNIK8 (fornicate)
UU D 44 (use the force) US D 4S works too I guess...

Too bad about the "space or dash" rule otherwise
1000101

I'd love to get that one but we have to have at least one letter...

I wish I could get an arcade inpsired plate. Over here all the plate prices are insane and there is nothing left to get either.

The closest I have got to MAMEing^TM my car is these little puppies:-

Closest of got to maming my car is having the pc hoocked up to the flipout touchscreen

I figured Drew would show up sooner or later! Not many posts escape your clutches! Is your cat still crappin' in the toilet?

Thanks for the suggestions! This post took a strange turn somewhere...That's what I love about this place!

not arcade related, but this is the greatest license plate ever. Genius, and would only work in Florida...or some other state with a big round object in the middle of the plate

I wanted "WakaWaka" but it's too many letters

put "MAME" on there and see if Foley trys to repo your car.

OMG you're telling me that it could have been a random plate?

whammoed · « **Reply #29 on:** June 24, 2005, 05:18:17 pm »

Yeah, the new plates have two smaller oranges instead of on big one, so it won't quite work anymore.

This is the best one so far. You get a subtle PacMan reference, without being too much of a dork.

I just got that one, shmokes. Right on! Very cool. BUT - not accepted by the DMV thing-a-ma-hoochie. Don't think all those dashes will fly. Great idea, tho.

DUH!

I totally didn't get that before you pointed it out. I was all like "C what? What starts with C, is 5 letters long and is arcade related?"
