Awful Tattoos: videogame nerds

September 21st, 2007 by Alice · 14 Comments


As requested: awful and nerdy videogame tattoos. This is the first of what I am sure will be many installments: console and controller tattoos.

Please keep in mind that these are in the category “good execution, bad idea” — the artist did a good job (although those stars up top look really squished and weird and, might I say, bad), but the client had a bad idea, so the tattoo is an awful tattoo. Before you guys get all riled up and leave 3823 comments (I know you guys just love leaving comments!) please note: I love video games. I love nerds. I love tattoos. I am not against nerdy tattoos by any means, nor am I against videogame tattoos, but if you really, really love gaming, why get the machine tattooed on you? Why not cool art from the game?

I couldn’t find a wiimote tattoo yet, but I’m sure there’ll be one out there soon.
