Subtle gamer tattoos

This fucking Pokéball makes me so angry. I find it even worse than the one in the OP; at least that was supposed to be totally fucked up. I can not get over this.

Also I probably will never get a tattoo, and definitely not one gaming related, but as far as simple, unobtrusive designs go I think the Mother/Earthbound logo is alright.

Man, for such a welcoming community you guys sure are judgemental as hell about some people's choices!!

i'm totally judgemental about the terrible job the tattoo artist did.

If you're gonna get a real ass tattoo, save up a grand and get it done by someone who knows what they're doing. Most of the tattoos in this thread border on straight up body harm.
 
I think the Zelda triforce with wings is one of the most played-out tattoo designs since the generic frat-bro tribal.

Just stop.
 
I feel completely comfortable judging people misguided enough to get video game tattoos.

Good job your opinion means jack shit then.

If someone wants to get a video game tattoo on their body then good for them. Just make sure it's from a good artist.
 
Fuck's sake, that OP is just depressing. Mostly unbelievably bad across the board.

I see this is a parody of a previous thread -- explains the usage of subtle.
 
Wow people have serious issues to be recognized as a gamer ?
Are you all embarresed of your hobby ? Serious question.

I dont have a tatoo and i think i never will.
But what about a simple Tetris blok ?
Or maybe the konami code ?

Yeah, kinda.

It still has a pretty bad reputation at present. A reputation that has been earned.
 
Not mine but one that I like. Rood Inverse from Vagrant Story. Would need a certain body type for a full back tattoo like this though I think.

The only gaming tattoo I think I'd get is a Shy Guy.

I got ya fam, 2 of 'em with the propellers on their head. And a Dry Bones. And a Chain Chomp chasing Toad and Toadette. And Raccoon Tail Mario. And Baby Luigi riding on Yoshi. And Bowser Jr with his flying contraption and his paintbrush. And a cloud, blocks and 1-up mushroom.

And a Lego Yoda. And some medals from Mass Effect and Destiny. And a CL4P-TR4P. Maybe that's it (for vg related ink)? Tomorrow I go in for another (not saying what :P) and plan on getting some Tetriminos soonish.
Not to mention the other various media themed ones, a couple pieces of flash and some original pieces..

i'm a walking corporate billboard. Suck it haters.
 
I've got this same thing tattooed in the same spot, except with the blue prism colossus eyes in the middle circles.

Over the past decade or so I've had so many tattoo ideas, gaming related and otherwise, that I never ended up getting. Stuff like the mana tree, a shiekah crest, windurst emblem, various quotes from writers. Every one of them, at the time, seemed like a great idea that would be great to have on my body forever.

It occurs to me now that for every single one of them, I can think back and say "yeah I'm glad I didn't get that."
