"quality material"? 100% organic cotton?

Not that I'd wear it - the "game start/pass word" bit looks out of place, the little character looks deformed and the sword/pad looks like something out of a 80s cheezy cock-rock video.

It'll also prolly be polyester. Plus $12 is a few dorrah more than I'd be prepared to spend on a generic logo short-sleeved T.

I think the price is acceptable especially if the quality is as great as it's claimed to be, but when it comes to the design...
As others have already mentioned, I also find the design to be somewhat childish. I'm 18 and I wouldn't wear that, maybe if I were 12 or 13. Also, the 't' in GBAtemp looks too much like a sword, and the GBAtemp guy looks weird without a mouth, but then again, that's just my opinion.

I'd rather it be a sword instead of a religous-esque cross.

That said, I'm digging the design. You've made the first "logo" shirt I've actually wanted to buy. Definately'll buy one.

I would have liked a simpler shirt with the logo and GBATemp on it, not the guy. Like others said, it seems a little kiddy. Also, at first glance, thought the T was a cross...

looks nice

but the cross seems silly, would look much nicer if it was the Master Sword from zelda

and the guy im not sure if he is missing a leg or its meant to be a wheel
Also, im almost sure that its not supposed to look like a cross, and is the hilt of a sword.

I like the design, but I won't buy this because:

- Black or dark colors don't look good on me
- The cross-type shape in the middle could send of the wrong messages because of my position [might make me look like a fanatic]
- I like more simple streamline designs, not so much pictures
- And buying anything overseas is a tricky process involving my Mum's credit card, so I try to avoid it

Lots of work has gone into it, an Excellent product has been formed, but you can never please all of 'em. I like this as a design, but probably not so much as a T-htirt, Good job

I'm not sure yet. I wouldn't mind wearing it... just some financial issues going on... then when I have the money... I might "accidently" spend it on something else... I'll see what happens...

I'd certainly buy it. The only nit-picky thing is that the "password" option looks more like "pass word". I could see how this could be intentional, as there were many retro games that it looked like that in, but I personally think that it would look better as it should be written, without a space.

I voted no because I thought the sword looks too much like a cross. Everyone would think it's a Christian shirt of some sort regardless if it's a sword or not.

The point of it being there written that way is to show what the old days were like, not a modern day interpretation of it.

I won't be buying it.
Now now... I'm not saying this because I lost
It's just that... the design does not appeal to me.
It's a good shirt design
