I'm probably getting a tattoo on my 18th birthday. I'm wondering what kind of tattoo I should get.

I definitely want it to be a video game / nerdy tattoo. Probably on my back right shoulder.

Anyways, any suggestions? Something not super overdone, like a super mario mushroom.

Companion cube plz.

Or Kirby with his mouth open on your bellybutton.

The Tri-force is ambiguous enough so that it looks cool to people who don't even know what "Zelda" is.

I know you said no Mario, but if you put him on your bicep, it would look like he is turning into Super Mario when you flex.

You could have a chord of Guitar Hero-styled "buttons" (whatever those icons are in the game that you have to press) going down your back.

You could get the cursed sealed Sasuke design going on somewhere.

Iron Man's magnetic chest core on your chest.


There's so many more I could think of.

Totally would go for a guitar hero tattoo. I would have to put the color's somewhere. I'd have them on my fingers, but jobs don't wanna see tattoo's :(

Kirby + companion cube would be totally awesome.

Totally probably going to go for the guitar hero idea, but not sure what I'd want to get. Something with Green, Red, Yellow, Blue, Orange in that order.

OR...You could get this tattoo...

And be like every other 18 year old shmuck who gets a tattoo?

I'd go for the companion cube, the tri-force sounds like a good idea too. I wish I could get tattoos, but I can't because I'm Jewish. Although if I wasn't Jewish I'd get a lot of em.

You could always get a dragonball or something. Or get one with Shenron beacuse dragons are cool and it's still nerdy, although a lot less noticeable in that way.

A pony!

On a more serious note, if you really want to play Photoshop with yourself I recommend Samus's symbol from SSB.

I'f you're not sure what tattoo you should get you shouldn't get one at all.
Seriously, this question is so stupid.

I'd go for the insignia of the Horde/Alliance ( or the cult insignia known from Silent Hill ) if i ever decided to get a tattoo.

If you have to ask what kind of tattoo you should be getting, you shouldn't be getting a tattoo. Unless you just want some video game meme slapped on you for life.

Keep in mind tattoo's for the most part are a real personal thing, and unless whatever game themed thattoo really means alot to you, don't do anything you'd regret.


The only thing I can think of game-wise that'd be alright would be the Umbrella logo on your upper back just below your neck.
