NENDO FAMICOM T-SHIRT

di Frankie (09/07/2007 - 11:13)


RaidGig (the tokyo  shop for fashion conscious gamers since 2001) is now taking pre-orders for the 2007 version of the T-shirt that 12 years ago started the craze for Famicom/ 8bit design (it was s a best seller in shops like kichijoji's "Shop 33", Shibuyas's "Tribute" and Mandary in Nakano). The design has been made by the legendary Quentaro "Ani" Fujimoto member of "Nendo Graphic Squad" since 1993, Graphic designer, 8bit Nintendo Collector and Buddhist (italian readers will read more about him in a the coming issue of GAMERS magazine). Ani is famous for his Famicom Tibetan style tshirts and since than worked on many projects related to videogames and otaku culture. It's courious that the man that created the very first site dedicated to Akiba called www.re-tokyo.com (produced by Fujitsu) in the mid-nineties got a super low profile online right now... but maybe this is part of his legend!
