(+) Yeah! (+)

I'd love this t shirt, but I don't know if I'd really wear it out and about....

I'm wearing a Mega Man one right now, though it's pretty faded.

Got a way of the white t-shirt

My main hoodie has an unlicensed Faro Automated Solutions logo.

This is my go-to shirt for dates and job interviews

Oh, I also have a Kingdom of Loathing black t-shirt that I really like.

Perfectly acceptable to wear out. OGs will give you respect and even youngins can't shit on you because they know it's a classic. And design wise it's actually decent for a video game shirt.

And even if someone tries to bully you about them then fuck em!

I used to have a Triforce/Dark Side of the Moon t-shirt. Not sure what happened to it

Nope, but I do have a D&D shirt.

I've solved this issue by having shirts I wear around the house like graphic tees and ones I wear out in public like nice button downs. That way I can buy any dumb anime/video game shirt I want without being self conscious of it.

At least half my shirts are video game related

The other half are just shirts

The only graphic shirts I hesitate to wear outside are my Sailor Moon ones

But I have seen a couple of other guys in SM shirts...

Had a pre-order t-shirt from the old Capcom game Maximo. Just a small capcom on the breast and the game logo across the back.

Personally I'm too old to be wearing those type of shirt out and about. I like to look a little more put together when my wife and I go out cause she always looks nice. Plus I wfh so I'm wearing those graphic tees more often than my out in public clothes.

Several the Mortal Kombat Logo shirt, Mario 64, etc....this one too

i have a black cap with the PlayStation logo that was gifted by a friend last year.

Got me a black tee of the Chest Mimic doing the Vitruvian Man pose somewhere in storage.

Used to have a shirt with this on it (Adventure Time/Zelda mash-up), I should try to find it:

I have a dark souls shirt and a hollow knight shirt.

I didn't buy either of them, my friend passed them down to me and I still wear them.

I have the Destiny moments of triumph shirt. White one from 2018. And a Cyberpunk 2077 shirts.

I never wear the Destiny shirt because it's white.

Lechonk hat
Gaymer shirt
A couple Mario shirts
Mario Christmas sweater

The Marios were all gifts.

I have several gaming related t-shirts I got from a several month subscription to Lootwear several years ago. One is a Wily skull made out of various Mega Man game sprites, one is Punch-Out related, one is a kinda neat artistic Bowser in Koopa Clown car, etc. I wear them whenever I feel like without really caring much, because they're just graphic tees. And, honestly, I've actually had several people go "That shirt is so cool" over the years. I don't think anybody has ever judged me negatively, and if they did, I didn't know it, and wouldn't have cared if they did.

That MK shirt is absolutely one I think would get the "That shirt is so cool" response.

EDIT: Basically, anybody who knows what it is clearly knows video games, and it's "OG shit." Likewise, anybody who doesn't know what it is will just assume it's... Random faces, and it's not some kind of "cringe" design or anything, it'll just mean nothing to them.

tl;dr: If you like it, wear it. Own it.

Again, I don't get why people are so hung up on graphic tees.

I get way more compliments on my gaming shirts than anything else I wear

Same. I absolutely love graphic tees. Nobody judges anybody on their graphic tee, unless you're wearing one in some kind of fancy environment where a t-shirt isn't expected... But even then, it's not because of the content of the tee, it's because you're wearing a tee in a place nobody else is, to begin with.

I like this one. I think I have a Street Fighter one somewhere.

I have a State of Emergency T-shirt somewhere.
I like to wear it during times of civil unrest.

They're also good conversation-starters

Anything else might elicit a "you look nice" comment and not much else

This is also true.

I have a shirt of AEW wrestler Danhausen, and somebody the other day was like "Is that a Svengoolie shirt?" And it's not, but the design is like, blatantly based on Svengoolie, since the character is also based on them, and it got us talking because we both like Svengoolie, and it was a pleasant conversation while we were both waiting in line. It was a fun conversation that the t-shirt caused, even though it wasn't actually directly related.

I understand if you want to remain vague, but I have to ask. Are you from the Chicago area? I grew up watching Son of Svengoolie but thought it was strictly a local thing. If it was broadcast to a larger area that is cool to know.

I have several of them this World of Horror one is my newest one

I just got a shirt from my brother that has the Souls game's "YOU DIED" wording plastered on it.

It was for my birthday party.

I have a Game Grumps shirt with the names of all of the Zelda playthoughs where they named Link. Wearing it right now.

I grew up in northern Ohio, Canton-Cleveland area. Then I briefly lived in eastern Kentucky, and now Las Vegas. Svengoolie has been a thing in all locations, typically appearing on MeTV.

I get the confusion, since it legitimately does feel like such a local thing, but he really is a rather nationally known entity.

I have this shirt. Get nothing but compliments. Honestly most people won't even know what it's in reference to to even give you a hard time. And the people who do know are likely to be fans.

I have a Sony shirt from when the PS2 came out. Got it at an Ozzfest or something.

Over half my wardrobe consist of video and anime apparel.
