    Default A Boy's "Famicom 20th Ann. Shirt" Theme Contest

    So.

    I ordered an "Famicom 20th Anniversary" t-shirt on Lik-Sang.com.

    The thing is way too damned big. I figured it was a Japanese size large. In reality, it's more like a U.S. size large/XL.

    So. If you wear t-shirts of that size and dig the Famicom, here's your chance to own a fabulous piece of clothing!

    Oh. And I want someone who will ACTUALLY WEAR THIS THING. I don't want it to sit on a shelf or hang on a wall. It's a cool shirt, dammit. It should be worn.

    If you're interested in obtaining this thing, tell me why I should give it to you in 200 words or fewer. I won't count any entries after midnight Sunday (12:00 A.M. Monday).

    Don't be afraid to get creative.

    Let's hear it! And may the best man/woman win!

    -A Boy
    Hmph.

    Because I was the first and only person to actually post in your thread. Their, so did I win?

    Oh and because I would be oh so snug in that super sexy famicom shirt. Like they say, the clothes make the man.

    First, the shirt will fit me. Second I live in New Mexico so the postage would be cheap. Third, giving me the shirt will restore your good karma for being so obnoxious to me in the Off-Topic section for rooting for the Red Sox (link). Fourth and most importantly I am an old Atari 2600 fan and - much like my Yankees-cum-Sox support I think that between its accomplishments and the longevity factor that the NES has finally truly earned its stripes as a "retro" console and would thus proudly wear such a shirt in my lifelong quest to celebrate all things retrogaming, even when that means generations after my own. Pick me.

    Think about it. It may not just be your karma at stake but that of the whole Red Sox franchise. Give me the shirt and keep that curse reversed.

    I'm sure my girlfriend would love it, and it would look good stretched across her boobs. XL is like, minimum shirt size for me though, I'd probably break it. I do hope that was under 200 words.

    edit: I'll get her to pose in it too? heh.

    I think I should have the shirt because I am an attention whore. I love it when I wear something only a few people might recognize just for that rare "Hey, I remember that." remark from a stranger. I want to have a cool shirt to wear to the game stores proudly so I can get all the employees talking so I can establish a bond greater than the one that already exists. In short, I want to be noticed. Thank you.

    Because the world needs more girls in over sized gaming t-shirts and thongs.

    I need this shirt because my extremely large breasts are too good for the human eye, they need covering up!
    Without clothes the whole human race would be attracted to me, which isnt a good thing!
    So basically... i need this item of clothing or i cant leave the house for another few years!

    The shirt would be a perfect size for me. Also, I changed my avatar when it offended you. I didn't have to do that. I'm not a bad guy. I'm in Cleveland, which may make for cheaper shipping. I would love to wear this shirt as much as I could. I just may do laundry more often than I should just so I could wear it more. Of course, this would be the only way to buy this shirt, since i'm almost dead broke. And asking anyone else for money would be useless.

    Um, XL T-shirts build character?

    Nintendo DS will be released on November 23rd. What will I be doing until then? I will be playing my Famicom. I believe that I need this shirt to lessen the pain of waiting for the DS to be released.

    First of all, I see you are from Texas. I liked it down in Texas when I went there on vacation, and had considered it a place in which I may move some day. Therefore, that adds a few points about you in my book.

    Onto the shirt. I am a big Nintendo/Famicom fan, and somewhat of a collector. However, I am also one of those poor people which fit into the category of "college students." It would always be nice to have a neat shirt like that.

    I also run a nice Nintendo website (see my sig.) If this does not show pure dedication to the Nintendo/Famicom, then what does? I've never received a cent for my hard work and dedication on this site, so it would be nice to get something from my hard work. :P

    I'd like the T-shirt because I've always wanted a Famicom, but have never been able to obtain the resources (money, or a place that sells it) for actually getting one. I figure that with the T-shirt, it will almost be as good as an actual Famicom!...almost.

    And I like your avatar.

    Hell, I'll throw in a lik-sang.com t-shirt for the 2nd place entry.

    If he/she wants it, that is. I don't know why anybody would.

    They sent me that thing by mistake.

    TWO T-SHIRTS!

    FREE!

    HOW CAN YOU TOP THAT?!

    Hmph.
