Because nobody asked for it…bad gamer tattoos!

On March 31, 2008, in Funny, Stupid, by Jeff Rivera

I’m not here to judge anybody. Well, maybe I am, but hidden here behind the wall of Internet anonymity, I feel the need to call some people out for their poor decision making. There are things in life that you do that you later regret, and I have pretty much no reservations in saying that each and every person you see below will at some point wish they hadn’t permanently defaced their bodies. So, without further delay, here are a few of the worst gaming tattoos you’ll ever see.

Note: There’s no nudity, but by nature of what tattoos are there will be plenty of skin, so I’m putting the images (after the first one) below the fold. Those at work can decide if their comfortable or not with the amount of skin for themselves. Get past the jump, however, and you’re in for a real treat!

“It’s so bad!” He said it, not me. Wait, actually, the tattoo itself said it. So we have two possible scenarios here, either the guy thought that the Power Glove was so terrible and laughable that it deserved a shoutout on his arm, or else he thought it was so bad (bad meaning good) that it deserved a shoutout on his arm. This, my friends, is just plain bad (you figure out what I mean).

By the way, I know it’s a quote from The Wizard, I’m just having some fun.

I’m here looking for the man that shot my ‘pa! Now we can safely assume that this guy hasn’t had to deal with his wedding night jitters yet, but c’mon, this isn’t going to make that day (should it ever come) any more comfortable.

Hey, it’s the Konami code! This makes sense, though, because in 2096 when we stop using paper, it’s the best way to take the code with you everywhere you go.

A Legend of Zelda tramp stamp…classy! Too bad the artist messed up and it should have looked more like this:

She got it right, but at the same time she still got it all so wrong. For all you Zelda fanboys thinking this is hot, I don’t need the angry emails.

sephiroth.jpg

It’s like a rule that Sephiroth and/or Cloud Strife have to be used for stupid purposes, and tattoos are no exception. I’m sure the FFVII team is pretty touched when they see their characters transformed from digital representations into absolute pure physical poetry.

atarivb5.jpg

She’s hardcore for two reasons: Atari (old-school baby!) and this isn’t a tattoo. Nope, she cut her skin away to create this. What a champ!

Game Over, alright…FOR YOUR DATING LIFE! Hahahahahardly a good move, bud.

Both arms, huh? Nice. Oh, and I think this image might have appeared on BMEZINE.com or something, I’m not sure, but I have the finest research teams in India working on it. They’ll give a full report soon. I’m told they’ve gone through several cups of coffee and maybe even a box of doughnuts by now.

boobtoos.jpg

This one’s fresh, it still has the vitamin E all over it, but it’s already too late to back out now. I’m sure she’s pretending to like it and it’s still a pretty funny joke, but come August she’ll be wearing turtle necks. “Hot? Me? No, it’s freezing out here! These summers in Phoenix can be quite chilly!”

facestars.jpg

Stars on the face, Boo on the arm, and two of the longest “eyebrows” the world has ever seen. She’s a keeper! (Note to girl picture above: Don’t beat me up.)

back.jpg

Too many girls getting Zelda tattoos. Well, any tattoo is pretty bad, but the full back special should probably be spoken out against in schools.

chest.jpg

In a tribute to old-school and arcade gaming, this guy went all out. Really it’s not the tattoo we should be admiring here, it’s the hairy nipples.

mario-tattoo.jpg

“Where should I put the tattoo? Where should I put it? Oh, I know! I’ll put it behind my ear! Oh, but of course I’ll have to gauge my ear so people looking down at me from an angle can get an unobstructed view. I can’t have lobe getting in the way.” Really now, if you’re going to get the tattoo, can’t you just stick it on your arm, back, or leg?

why.jpg

Gross. This is awful, but mostly because it’s not even resembling the shape of a real Pac-Man maze. You know, I have about 20 more images saved, but it might be best to just stop here. This is getting beyond disturbing.

    you idiot, those aren’t hairy nipples, they are hairy nipple tattoos!>>!@# Any self respecting person would be able to recognize a hairy nipple tatto when they see one (or two).

  • Jellyworld

    The Metroid / Mario sleeve is actually three arms and it isn’t really a tattoo but drawn in crayon. Idiot.

    Dude, you’re a freaking idiot. Period. YOU are the loser, as you don’t have the ability to accept people for who they are and seem to think your sh** doesn’t stink. I make over 6 figures in a professional job, play video games and have tattoos. Trust me, it’s people like you and with your attitude that are having more difficult times finding jobs out there these days. You need to learn to accept people for who they are and quit being such a bigot. Why don’t you get a life!

    Sorry, that last post was meant for McD21. Got the names mixed up. Tats are alright, just make sure you get something that you think you can live with the rest of your life.

    If you don’t like it fine… Just let other live their lives the way they want.
    They like tattoos? FINE!

    JUST RESPECT YOU DUMB F***!

  • ya

    girls with tats will screw your dick off. a girl that smokes, with a tat, and a kid will pretty much rape you. so, when you take into account the slut factor, the ink (a small to moderate amount anyway) is totally awesome. however, many of these are in bad taste, by bad artists. how hard is it to trace something?

  • Wait a second…

    I think everyone who’s complained at all about the pictures and comments on this page just needs to chill. And since I can see “respect_is_great”s post while I’m writing this, I’ll use you as an example. If you’re so happy with your job and your life, why are you going around complaining that some immature comments about tattoos are bigotry and hatred? I’m unaware of any negative comments throughout the tattoos besides “They’re going to regret that!” or something along those lines. But you take time out of your day to curse and demean. For someone demanding so much tolerance, you may want to try having a bit yourself.

    And cool tats, by the way.

  • Jack Tripper

    Some of those tats should’ve never been done, but whatever. It’s that person’s perogotive. It’s not anyone’s fault but their own if they never get any for the rest of their lives.

  • Tim

    Well obviously the sleve of nintendo tats is one arm. you can tell by the biceps. unless he got yoshi’s and samus on both. personally, i think some of these are great but the placement could be a bit better

  • HAH

    if you cant tell that these are all awesome tattoos then and your a fuckin nitwit
    how are these stupid? , stupid to YOU ! mabey but the people that got them have more balls and guts and glory then you faggots with no tats will ever have HAHAHA

  • Tim

    eh i have to agree with hah. i mean the sleeve is amazing work and the racoon mario on the neck is amazing also. all im saying is that tramp stamp triforces and pac-man trails to her vag is just not right

  • http://none Terron

    The Atari symbol on the girls back/shoulder…Its a flesh wound tattoo she didn’t cut the skin away. I do tattoo’s I know. Its just another fleshwound tattoo…One of the coolest I’ve seen sure, but it is a tattoo!

  • Nate

    RE: the atari ‘cut out’ are you people stupid! its a tattoo, its not infected the red swolen parts are PART OF THE TATTOO!, it has the bypanthra all over it, so its a GREAT tattoo, because its meant tolook cut away and fooled so many of you.

    hey its skin, its only skin, seriously. i have a few stupid tats and im like yeah i have a few stupid tats, the only regret i have is that they are taking upvaluable real estate.

    the only dif between tattoo’d ppl and untattoo’d ppl is that tatoo’d ppl dont care if you dont have tattoos.

  • nate

    ROFLMAO ‘hairy nipple tattoos’ that is the funniest thing EVER!

  • huh

    man, there is nothing wrong with Zelda tattoos, obviously you just don’t like tattoos, which is cool. i’d rather see people get tattoos of things they are passionate about rather then things the culturally appropriated. This is much better then some dude with Japaneses characters all over his body, when he doesn’t even know what they mean, or the obligatory “tribal” band. btw the phrase “tramp stamp” is derogatory and ridiculous, that area of the body not only looks awesome with a tattoo but is also less painful, it says nothing about the character of the person who got it.

  • What A Cock

    what a big fat giant cock, nothing wrong with most of those gamer tattoo’s.. end of dating life?? news flash.. people go for the attractive faces and features not tattoo’s u idiot lol call be old fashioned but… WHAT A COCK YOU REALLY ARE lol

  • Sabrina Ruiz.

    Okay. You all just need to shut. the. fuck. up. You are all ignorant pieces of shit. This person is probably someone who just doesn’t like tattoos. Guess what, there are people who are like that. Not EVERYONE enjoys the sight of tattoos. I admit, some of this is a bit foolish but this person has their own opinion and that should be respected. Quite your bitching and moaning about how “stupid” this person is. Honestly, the Atari one I think was complete sarcasm when it came to the “it was cut in” part or whatever. I am one that loves tattoos, naturally. As most people do but there are still people who find tattoos ugly. Seriously put some tampons in, take some midol, and open your eyes. Most of you guys must think you are badass yet you won’t even say your name. Really scary. Not to mention bad grammar and sentence structure. I know what you are thinking, this is the internet, since when was “respect” put into game but you would think 22 year old’s who went through High School (Which I hope most of you have) would have some kind if better judgment then to just kick down anyone you see that is a bit foolish and seriously grow up. I can’t stand the sight of people acting like complete fools because someone shouted their opinion. This is the world I live in? I’m fucking ashamed. Seriously, grow up.

  • GMacD

    WOW, Talk about NO LIFE!

  • http://nocoastpunk.org John

    As a fan of tattoos, having several of them as well, and a fan of video games…..these are the stupidest wastes of $300+ I have ever seen in my life. As if being a nerd was hard enough on your social life…

  • Goddamn

    Most of you people can’t take a joke, or apparently sarcasm, some of these responses are ridiculous

  • jess

    i’m not even a gamer, but some of these tats are awesome artwork. lots of good color. Why regret tattoos? you only live once, have a little fun, and when you are 50 plus? who cares? your old anyways, your tats aren’t gonna make you any less attractive, no one will be attracted to your old ass anyway, except maybe other old asses. and they might think you’re more interesting with a tat. Everyone chill out.

  • jess

    i’m a 20 year old female with 5 tats, one of which is on my butt, i’ve been told my tats are sexy, and a couple of girls (who are now my friends) told me that when they met me, they thought they could never be my friends because they said they thought i looked too cool to be friends with them. All i get are compliments about my tats, so are you tat haters….. WHATEVER.

    all these tatoos suck so all of you stfu

  • Qyss

    Some of these are wicked cool, some of them are poorly placed, the rest are poorly done. I still find it difficult to comment much further on the individuals that have them though, no harm done to me.

    The atari logo is a tattoo for sure. I’ve seen many done in that style. The red is added on purpose. I have 3 tattoos myself. Tattoo for sure.

  • downright

    The fact that you actually took the time to post these and supposedly ‘diss’ these people, albeit with no wit whatsoever involved, well frankly, you suck just as much as they do. Don’t you actually do something with your life, or is this it?

  • downright

    And yes, the atari symbol really is a tattoo, if you truly believe that it’s not, I’m not sure if a shrink could even help you.

  • GG

    You’re a really crappy writer. Seriously, this was snotty, dull, and completely annoying.

  • crazy corey

    please show more girls with dumb tats in sexy places I can laugh and be aroused at the same time keep up the good work!!!

  • Acetraee

    Wow. Some of you have some serious issues. From what I’m reading the majority of you aren’t even old enough to get a tattoo or still live with your parents. I’m a full believer in having your own opinion but do some of you have to snap at others for not thinking the same as you? I have tattoos. Mine can be covered up for job purposes. I am also a “gaming chick”. I have a husband so I don’t have any problem “getting any” as some of you seem to think. My husband and I actually game together. Some of these are pretty cool. I came across this site actually looking for my next tattoo which is going to be something with Zelda. And I would like to clarify that not all “gaming chicks” are ugly. I’m going to be the only person on here to do this….If you have anything to say to me then please say it to my face….http://www.myspace.com/acetraee

  • Ice_L0rd22

    1, i believe this was mildly amusing. thank you for posting these and writing those quippy little comments. you may have gotten some shit wrong but oh well still good nonethless.

    2. all you haters, you insult him for having no life yet you all took the time to comment on this saying you also have just as much time as him to waste on a long angry rant. go suck a chode and get a life yourself.

    3. Acetreaa, im sorry babe but your fuckin ugly lmao. you look like a god damned troll :P sorry but your just disproving your point on gamer chicks and their looks
