Tagline!

...I really want some Nintendo vans.

I will never understand the appeal of any pair of shoes.  Not even Nintendo-themed ones.  They're down on the ground, your eyes generally aren't.  And they're small compared to t-shirts.  If I'm going to wear Nintendo (and I do), I'll wear it on my torso.

I love shoes, it's like the only form of clothing I'll spend money on.

I'm not fussed about shoes either. I'm glad I got a new pair of trainers - I swear my feet were touching the ground, my old ones were so knackered; but I don't really care what they look like. Exception: When I got the Repton shoes!

*realises he's changed it to that abortive Shrek*

Wait, they were Repton shoes?

Mm-hm.

Need to hoover, mate.

Does yer maw still buy ye yer clathes then?

You can get adult size heelies, but an adult's centre of gravity is wrong so they're a nightmare.

Maybe if I had one

Well, I feel like a right numpty now. Sorry mas.

Snrk.

Eh? Why is this a bad thing? It seems like yer typical Mario pose anyway.

I don't think it's particularly bad or good, it's just funny.

Brand awareness. *taps nose conspiratorially*

I've just put a preorder in, might be worth a punt for any Zelda fan.

^ Oh Nintendo! Don't get into that Lootcrate nonsense.

^^ I thought re-using the assets was a bit cheap, but then, how many blimmin images of happy Mario characters is it possible to muster anyway?

This will be there second box Mr Bob after the Mario one.

Brilliant

Also mystery boxes are terrible, why wouldn't you just tell me what is included so I can decide whether I want it or not.

Gone and put a pre order down for the mystery box, didn't fancy the Mario one but I suppose we knew what was in that from the start, here I'm paying for the prospect.

Because they're for getting rid of stock which, while not ostensibly bad, nobody wanted.

So these are cool as fuck! The zelda adidas mentioned are pretty alright too.

Oooh, those are very cool. Nice and subtle.

I want an Alolan Sandshrew now.

I have one of the Littens that you can see in the background.

I have the Pikachu Libre you could see when the other fella was talking.
