These new Nintendo shirts are pretty dope, TBH
Trendy Japanese retailer Uniqlo just introduced the Nintendo Collection, a line of 25 fan-designed T-shirts spanning the video game company's most popular franchises. Each shirt design was chosen by Mario creator and Nintendo Creative Fellow Shigeru Miyamoto out of a global pool of more than 16,000 submissions. There collection goes on sale at the Uniqlo website on May 18 at 9PM Eastern. Men's and women's shirts are $14.90; kids' shirts are $9.90 each. Here's the full collection of 25, starting with Miyamoto's favorites.
First Place: Pixel Mario (Takashi Kawazoe)
Created by Takashi Kawazoe of Japan, this pixelated Mario design was selected by Miyamoto as the best of all 16,000 contest entries. That earned Kawazoe the grand prize of $10,000 and his own Miyamoto-signed Nintendo Switch console. It's available for men, women, and kids.
