Virtual Boy looks cool for the first time ever


It turns out that staring at red-on-black images isn't so bad when you don't have to cram your face into a machine to do so. This shirt, created for German Virtual Boy fansite vr32.de, almost makes the Virtual Boy's reviled display palette appear ... artistic. As if Nintendo limited the display of the system because it would look cool, and not for technological reasons. It looks great on a shirt, anyway.

It features a Virtual-Boy-as-octopus design on the front and Planet Virtual Boy branding on the back. We doubt that many were made, but for the moment they're available for 17 Euros plus shipping (which would probably be a lot!) by contacting Planet Virtual Boy's DrAetzn.

Celebrate Mega Man's 20th by looking awesome


Capcom is releasing some totally great stuff to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the first Rockman game (way back when it had scores). We're happy not just because it's rad, but because it focuses on the for-real Blue Bomber and not on one of the scores of Mega Man-lites Capcom has spun off over the years.

Unfortunately, we can't tell if the limited-edition items -- including t-shirts, scarves (!) and phone straps -- will be made available online or only at the special Rockman event held in Ikebukuro on the 18th. We would at least like a shot at ordering one of these jackets. We're cold.

A Sonic product we can all agree with

We know that this promotional t-shirt is meant to appropriate the pirate theme of the new Sonic Rush Adventure, but we think that the design is iconic enough to suit Sonic fans of all kinds, as well as Sonic haters.

For Sonic fans, it's a way to advertise your enjoyment of Sega's mascot with a nice, simple logo that doesn't look too Mountain-Dew-extremey or cartoony.

But the people who want to make an ironic statement about their perception of the series as it is today may have it even better. While Sonic Rush Adventure adherents will interpret the shirt's image as a Sonic'd Jolly Roger, you can pretend it's a Sonic poison warning!

The shirt will be available from Segadirect in Japan on October 18th for a reasonable 1575 yen ($13.85). We don't know if they'll ship outside of Japan or not, unfortunately.

Make a pixel t-shirt

The title is imperative for a reason. Seriously, you should either be working on a t-shirt right now or headed out to Michaels to pick up supplies. Oh, or reading this post. That's totally fine.

To make this Princess Peach shirt, HackerZen user Lenore adapted the technique used by a very faithful reader to make his Phoenix Wright shirt, adding the extra step of drawing a grid on the shirt with a washable marker, then filling in pixels to make a big sprite. Excellent.

But don't just default to Mario. There are a lot of sprites out there. Get creative!
