Friend made a very small run of shirts for himself, me and some of his family. Very nice reproduction of the original which seems to

be an extremely rare shirt to find. Very cool

shirt. Anyone here own an original?

    That's an awesome shirt. Looks like one was on display at the Portland Retro Game Expo

    Sweet! Now I have a new easter egg to hunt for in my bins of goodies. I'm looking so damn forward to moving beyond the game archiving and diving into the rest of the history I'm sitting on. Thanks for sharing!

    Keep us posted on some things you uncover! Have you already started a thread in collectors corner? Maybe start one and share something once a week and we can talk about it. :-)

    I have a slightly different one that I think was from a radio station that, my guess, was a part of the launch. I wanna say mine is black on red, but could be confusing it with the binder.

    Definitely will! Pics will go up in this thread (since it's all part of the Carolina Collection): http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=187249



    That one will probably grow slow over time as I uncover things from Dain's collection that are worth sharing. He had a passion for collecting both the games and the history, so I'm expecting to uncover all sorts of fun

    I've seen 1 pin on eBay years and years ago. I was thinking the pin I saw was a little different, too. More maroon and black and very little to no white. But it was years ago that I saw it. I might have the image saved somewhere.
