Love this shirt as an old school gamer. Grew up on those dangerously large Nintendo accessories.

This shirt is pretty sick. Although perhaps I wouldn't purchase it myself, I'm sure that the artist took a lot of consideration and thought into producing such a lively form of art, with a mix of pirates, guns, and the infamous Mario.

Oh by the way, I have that Darth Vader shirt shown in the sticker above. Whoot! Whoot!

Woowwwww, that's really awesome. Definite buy from me! And the side art is sweet too. I want the tophat wine dispenser shirt when I'm using my hardhat beer dispenser! I also agree with Niku; Ihop has nothing on this.

I feel like the dog from duck hunt laughs at me when I make a stupid decision. He won't be laughing when I buy This tee.

this shirt is pure genius. Duck hunt was a classic and i remember going through atleast 3 guns. Side art is also awesome, especially the Lakitu towing.

if i had the cash. i would buy this shirt in a heart beat. hopefully it will pop up somewhere soon!

Keep up the good work tee fury!

About the artist

dann matthews

Art curated by

A word from the curator:
Ducks better run, because there's a new sheriff in town!

Tell us about this design.
I figured tough guys loved their NES too.

Where are you from?
I grew up on the entire West Coast (CA-AK) and ended up setling down in WI.

How did you get started designing t-shirts?

My old coworker, Matt Alvar, talked me into going to school for graphic design and putting together a small portfolio of shirt designs to present to a mall chain. We got a meeting, had a handful of shirts printed up for our presentation and failed spectacularly. I continued to make shirt designs while I finished school as practice in between projects.

What advice would you offer to aspiring designers?
Don't get discouraged if your work doesn't look exactly like what you imagined in your head. Think of each design adding +1 design skill. Place your bad designs in a bag of holding. I hope those references make sense, I don't play RPGs.

What would be your dream job?
It's sad, I don't think I have one anymore. The cynic in me notices that my "dream job" would become hectic and redundant at some point. Now I've made myself sad. This next question had better perk me up!

What are your feelings about hats?
YAY! I love hats! If you look through my past designs, I've made at least 8 designs that are headwear-centric. There's even on in my sidebar examples below! YAY HATS!

What would your dream house be like?
I'm in my dream house. I just bought it last year and I've never been so content. My wife and I often play "what if we won the lottery" and we both agree that we would stay here, buy the neighbor's place and turn it into a bigger yard / addition to the house with full theater seating and one of those new 3D TVs.

Jason Bateman vs. Justine Bateman: who would win the battle?
Jason is too nice, and you can tell by the way he always drops his gaze that he was not the Alpha Dog in that sibling Rivalry. You have to stay dominant, like me. I once dropped a factory sized iron press on my sister. No lie. I let her hit me afterward to keep her from tattling.

Describe your favorite shirt that you own, and why you like it so much.
My old Misfits shirt. I haven't worn it in a while, but I love that Crimson Ghost skull.

What was your favorite as a kid: comics, cartoons, or movies? Was there a specific title you liked most of all?
I didn't read comics as a kid, I read books, every book I could find. I read most of the Babysitter's Club when I ran out of Ramona books. I didn't love movies until my later teens. TV was my favorite; and despite my large transformers collection )taking up a full room in my house) I watched He-Man a lot.

What are a few of your favorite websites?
