Types of video Game Shirts

By Alan Cutler


Game t shirts are massive and very lucrative for businesses. There are a number of categories that video game shirts cover. In this editorial we are going to explore these further, what are the most successful shirts and the differences between these video game shirts.

Funny Video Game Shirts
Funny video game shirts are one of the most popular types of game t shirts. These shirts tend to put the chief protagonist of their game into a different situation and can reference popular culture. These types of shirts do tend to show their age really quickly as they are tied into what is currently popular right now.

Retro Video Game Shirts
If you love the classic older games that started it all then you will love these shirts. The games that come to mind are Pong, Space Invaders, Golden Axe, PAC-Man and Donkey Kong. My favourite are taking a screen shot of an actual level of the game and having that screen printed. It is literally a piece of history on your shirt.

Game Over Video Game Shirts
A new trend in video game shirts is the Game over shirt. These gaming tees usually display the end screen of a game which has been printed on a shirt. The term 'Game Over' has now crossed over into the main stream. It is now part of popular culture. You will see this term on a lot of funny slogan shirts not just video game shirts.

Gamer Lifestyle T Shirts
These are really funny video game shirts but these are not about the games but the way gamers behave, long sessions of gaming, getting excited when the next instalment of their favourite game is released. These can be considered popular culture shirts as well.


Console shirts
These tees again, can cross over into a number of different categories, but tend to have wordings to with specific gaming console manufacturers for example, Nintendo or specific consoles. One example of this is the numerous red rings X box t shirts out there for sale.


All of these t-shirts are really popular. It used to be that just gaming manufacturers were licensing the images from the games to their designers to create these tees. However independent designers are taking inspiration from these gaming titles and putting their own stamp on the designs creating some very original designs.
