16-SHOT, XL: HUDSON’S TAKAHASHI MEIJIN TEES
Another merciless tease from overseas: Hudson not only debuts but puts on tantalizing clearance sale (down to ~$10!) this set of five shirts extolling the “gold finger” of company spokesman Takahashi Meijin, known best (as previously mentioned) for his ability to hummingbird-finger-press controller buttons at 16 times a second.
We very much need some kind of official middleman for all these overseas tees. [via TinyCartridge]

FRUSTRATION ON FABRIC: MINI CASSETTE’S 8 BIT JASON SHIRT
Mini Cassette gets a big thumb up from me for venturing way, way outside of the usual Nintendo canon for their pixelated Friday the 13th Jason sprite shirt.
Befitting their line of horror themed tees, the 8BitJason shirt is sure to recall the biggest nightmares of our youth: bad, licensed NES games. Now if only I could get a Fester’s Quest tee.
Also available in girl’s sizes.

PIXEL PUNS: STEVEN LEFCOURT’S SPACE IN-VADER T-SHIRT
I haven’t mentioned Duoform Network’s UK fashion label Super Combo since Offworld’s earliest days, but the group’s just released a fresh design: guest artist (and frequent shirt.woot/threadless designer) Steven Lefcourt‘s Darth-punny Space In-vader.
I’ve used the least lascivious shot of the shirt above, click through to aeiko to see it all sexed up.

HUNTER CLASH: DOARAT’S MONSTER HUNTER PORTABLE 2ND G SHIRT
One last look this morning at a wonderful-thing-we-can’t-really-have: Capcom’s venerable Monster Hunter series may have never hit the West as it did in the East, but there it’s managed to spawn its own subculture of inspired design.
Case in point, design group Doarat‘s retro-clash promotional T-shirt for the third iteration of Capcom’s PSP version, Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G (coming to the U.S. as Monster Hunter Freedom Unite in June), as spotted on Yahoo Japan’s auction site.
My favorite, though, remains the ‘Melaleu’ Felyne & crosspaws shirt at right, only spotted up for bid once, and now long out of print at places like CDJapan.

THE LEFT 4 DEAD T-SHIRTS ONLY FRANCIS COULD HATE
Though the ‘featured items’ here are this thuggish ‘zombie skull’ hoodie (I’d wear it) and more traditionally illustrated T-shirt, why didn’t anyone tell me there’s also a full range of shirts dedicated to the things Francis hates?
My favorite (at right), the woods-hating shirt, but there’s also van hating, and hating on, well, everything Francis hates on (stairs).
Perfect for wearing to your new Survival Mode marathon sessions, or your next things-Francis-hates dance-off.

DIG DUGS & SONICS & BEARS: THE REST OF UNIQLO’S GAMES T-SHIRT LINEUP
Continuing Offworld’s quest to keep you perpetually well clothed: after drip-feeding new designs for the past several months, Japan’s Uniqlo has decided to blow-out the rest of its forthcoming officially licensed games T-shirt designs, showing off every card in its hands for the next several months.
Above you can see a few of the best: Parappa‘s adorable canine mug and the quasi-metal inspired Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins shirt (along with a bonus LittleBigPlanet ring-tee), and below, a quick-dump of all the rest of the assorted goods.

Today’s other necessary additions to your T-shirt collection: stateside import house NCSX has begun taking pre-orders for these official retro designs straight from Japan developer Taito, with both expected to ship in April.
On the left, obviously, their original arcade hit Bubble Bobble, on the right, the huge and clearly fast approaching battle ship King Fossil from their 1994 arcade shooter Darius Gaiden.
