Shirt.Woot

I apologize in advance for making a Nintendo-related shirt, but the idea came to me in part, a friend of mine said something that sparked it further, and I absolutely had to do it. I looked around for similar shirts and am hoping there isn't one in some dark corner of the internet like this because I couldn't find a one.

The Game Boy was brought to North America in '89 (the year I was born), though I didn't get a chance to play with one until about 8 years later. ;D

Obviously, I took some artistic liberties with...er, most everything, actually, but I'm hoping it's all right. If not, I tried!

Re: 1971 - Fuzzy Warbles

Based on the 1971 classic A Clockwork Orange and my favorite quote "What you got back home, little sister, to play your fuzzy warbles on? I bet you got little save pitiful, portable picnic players. Come with uncle and hear all proper! Hear angel trumpets and devil trombones. You are invited."
I figured it would be nice to have a Clockwork Orange shirt that wasn't focused on Alex or milk...
