It’s like wearing a secret on your head that only other gamers will understand.” Chris Birch, founder, Joystick Junkies: “The main thing is our clothing has to be commercial, it’s got to sell to people who want really cool t-shirts whether they ‘get it’ or not, whether they recognize the inspiration for the design or not. The bonus is if you see one of our t-shirts and think ‘oh my god that’s the quote from my favorite game’.” Tashica Taylor, private seller, aka urbanprincess: “I try to make thinks that are fun and things I think people will love! If I won’t wear it I won’t [[link]] make it and try to sell it to someone.” Note: The gallery is sorted by game, so some “saves” will still be pricey. Sorry, Atari fans!
