Not sure if its even been asked before, so do forgive me if it has been, but anybody out there have any gaming related tatoos? Not me, but i do have a classic 80s old school tattoo on my left shoulder! =)

I knew a guy that got a Tribes Blood Eagle symbol tattoo'ed on his calf, pretty sweet.

It looks like this: (edit: here's a smaller pic)

cool tattoos! =) Heres mine, not really game related, but there were several GI JOE video games =), GI Joe was the BEST when I was a kid (or should i say Cobra!), and I was in LOVE with the toys, and the nes games!

John "CX2K" Hardie has a Jaguar tattoo on his shoulder right about where yours is, Simonbelmont. Don't know if he's got a picture to put up here.

As long as no one has the ChoAniki Guys on their ass, we'll all be ok.

And that's my $.02. Thank you. Ahem.

Actually, I don't, and I've made 6 trips to the tattoo parlor :)

Same here, and I've been there twice!

What would be a good design though?

I have a game related tatoo planned for one of my shoulders. Stay tuned.

We had a superfan show up at the Working Designs offices one day, asking if Victor was there, and showing us his many, many Lunar and Magic Knight Rayearth tattoos (which covered his arms, chest, and back). The fan later claimed that Victor had promised to give him a bunch of games, and placed a series of increasingly psychotic phone calls to WD's customer-service line; he also had his girlfriend and mother (or so they claimed) call in. Victor had an electronic security system installed soon afterward.

And they say RPG fans are obsessive.

Only tattoo I have is on my butt... looks like a cattle brand job and says "Made in the USA." I was thinking of getting one below my navel with "Home of the Whopper" and a down arrow on it.

Just kidding.

There's an entire gallery of video game and other geeky tattoos at the BME-zine.

Some really impressive pieces on there. Some questionable ones too though. :)

I recently got an nes controller on my left arm with the words old school on top of it. I have no way of getting it on my computer right now but if I get a new digital camera I'll post it. I want to get another one but I'm not sure if I want something led zeppelin or castlevania related.

My old college buddy got a barcode from a case of "southpaw light" put on the back of his neck at spring break a few years back. He tested it out on one of the wally world "price check" things and it rang it up just like it would if you were really in the checkout. Pretty cool IMO. I am also thinking of getting another tat, but I want something "different", but still VG related :/

I always joke that, if I was a guy, I'd get a tattoo of the Enterprise with the words "To boldly go where no man has gone before" on my wang" But I'm not a guy. Although that would be a very funny tattoo...crazy, but funny.

As for game-related tats, I don't have any yet, but I am going to get Pac-Man and Ms Pac-Man facing each other with the heart over them from the Act 1: They Meet "cutscene" of the Ms Pac-Man game over my heart, since it's a symbol of me and my boyfriend since we're both gamers in love. I was also considering a triforce tattoo since I am a huuuuge Zelda fan. Did anyone see the cover of the Nintendo Power with the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess cover story? The triforce design on that picture, the one with the wings, is like the best idea for a lower back tattoo, although lower back tats are soooo cliche nowadays. Or maybe a heart piece. That'd be cool too. I dunno what else I would get for a tattoo. My boyfriend wants to get the Metroid logo.

I'll post pics when I finally do get them (prepare to wait a long time LOL)

About 6 years ago I was considering getting a tattoo of the monster holding a missile on the side of the Space Invaders Deluxe cabinet.

http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=S&game_id=12743

It was that or the rat bat spider from Angry Red Planet/Misfits "Walk Among Us" album cover. I didn't get either of them. I still don't have any tattos. My friend just got a tattoo of some obscure Atari arcade game. WHen I remember the name of ti I will edit this.

If I ever got a tatoo, it'd probably be Chun Li looking all awsome and stuff.

Or maybe Kei and Yuri from an old Japanese show called Dirty Pair.

It's like getting a tattoo of a UPC from a urine sample. Seriously, Southpaw? Ugh.

Heh.. I'm going to my local parlor next week to see about getting Atomic Robo Kid (from the case-art) put on my left shoulder. I think he just looks cool.

I've been looking at getting this tatooed on me:

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/JumpmanPOE/ontop.jpg

I was thinking of getting it on my left hip... high enough that you could see about half of it when I'm wearing boxers.
I put that thing together myself. Meaning I drew up the triforce (talented eh) and stuck a picture of Link that I found in the middle.
I'm looking for a picture of Link ramming the Master Sword into the pedastal as an alternative to him just sitting there. Or maybe him playing the Ocarina.
