Nintendo Approved Underwear from mid-80's. "Bigger is Better"

crazyjapan.blogspot.com — People are still surprised that these 'Risqu é' Boxers and Briefs were ever released. I mean you have one Boxer that shows a small Mario + Mushroom + Bigger Mario and the Caption on the Boxer reads, "Bigger is Better"

    • mariusaz, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6What exactly is wrong with these?

      What do you mean, nobody's saying there is anything wrong with these.
    • babylonian, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Sorry, I call *****. These aren't from the "mid-80's". These are still sold on places like StylinOnline:

      http://stylinonline.stores.yahoo.net/boxerspanties.html

      But seriously, one of them says EVERYBODY LOVES A PLAYER and has a retro NES controller. Who would think these are vintage items? Hell, the article that this links to is in Spanish, and makes no mention of them being from the 80's, 99% of the headline and description were utterly fabricated by the submitter.

      No digg, buried as inaccurate.
    • Charlotte_Web, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Most gamers were probably unaware of it because the Nintendo Underwear was always stocked in the drug stores in the "Birth Control" section...
  • Splitt3rxx, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19lol, the bigger is better mario boxers pwn.
  • thewebguy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20these are not from the 80s..
    • LycoLoco, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14Seriously. Did the submitter even look at the images, because I don't think "Bling Bling" would have been on anything in the 80s.
    • bigboy101011, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2your right, i can go down to walmart right now and pick up the "i scored with a princess"
  • ColBuendia, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18I scored with the princess? That's probably more surprising.
  • eboskie1, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3I like the 1-up boxers the best I scored with the princess one is pretty cool too. The controller one would be good for my GF :)
  • vap0r, on 10/12/2007, -12/+6No thongs...no digg...;)
    • justinjacobs, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21Judging by the physical make-up of the average digg user, no thongs = a good thing.
  • merr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8This one would be good on a pair of underwear... http://www.bustedtees.com/shirt/blowme/male
    • vap0r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+36My son has a gameboy advance, and he blows on the cartidges when they don't work. The funny thing, is that this was not taught to him. He just did it on instinct, which leads me to believe that this behavior is inherited not learned. It seems that I've blown into so many nintendo cartridges, that it has changed my DNA...
  • judremy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11From the 80s? I don't think so. I bought a few pair of these a couple months ago at Kohls. Dugg down for inaccurate.
  • daridave, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I want those. Seriously. They're hilarious.
  • darryl242, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3"bigger is better", except when it talking about your Wii. It's tiny and generally unimpressive.
    • Ozymandias42, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1It's not the size size of the ship, it's the ovation of rotation.
    • pumacub, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13On a related note... does anyone know if the black Wiis will be bigger than the white ones?
    • nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I hear the black ones will be about as thick as FOUR DVD cases. Conversely, the Wiis released in Asia will be just slightly smaller than the standard white Wii.
  • Deliorion, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I have the boxers that have all the Mario's on it...I'm actually wearing them right now.
    • vap0r, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I'm not wearing ANY underwear...............
    • nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1What is this "underwear" thing people keep talkin' about?
  • coheedcollapse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3These are really lame. Like I love nintendo stuff and all, and I love stuff that reminds me of my childhood, but no ***** amount of nostalgia can make me wear Nintendo boxers with gaming terms turned sexual cliche.

    Reminds me of those lame "Remember my name you'll be screaming it later" t-shirts.
  • innerdrag0n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Just a couple months ago I bought a t-shirt with the same equation (Mario + Mushroom = Big Mario) except it said "Size Matters"
  • RayBan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Anyone know where I could purchase the "I Scored With The Princess" boxers? Thanks.
  • MarvelingOne, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Where can I buy online, does anyone know?
    • archerx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yes I would also like to know where I can buy some of these....
  • tymme, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Amazingly similar to http://digg.com/gaming_news/More_Nintendo_Panties , too, when you get to the actual 'store' link.
  • MYarms, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2:(

    inaccurate.
  • DarkStalker, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2These aren't official Nintendo items. Inaccurate.
  • nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I KNOW that at least a few of these items were available at Hot Topic (the controller hot pants, the "I scored with the princess" (at least on a shirt), and the "bigger is better" (again, I saw these on a shirt, not on boxers). I believe these could be actual Licensed Nintendo items.
  • nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1and this one is real too:

    http://www.kohls.com/products/product_page_vanilla2.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=311891423&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=63096607
  • Otto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I believe these are actually licensed products. I've seen some similar ones with various cartoon characters on them, like the ones with Stewie that say "The Booty Shall be Mine!"
  • Moysh007, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Yeh i agree there arent fomr th 80's but some are nice i have a few....
    You can actually get them here and more.. clicks "Mens boxers" and then "Ninetendo"!!!

  • jabelar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I'm a little unsure about the "Everyone Loves An Italian Boy" motto ...
  • Lonecow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Well I guess this finally confirms that Mario definitely got it on with Peach.
  • jonish, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I own several of those boxers. And I only bought them over the past few years. They're not from the 80's.
  • pyro858, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0does anyone remember at the end of super Mario 64 peach licks Mario's nose?? Ever since then I'm just like wtf, strange fetishes with a plumber hmmm
  • GotoDengo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What's with the thong-looking thing with the NES controller on the crotch? Is that girl underwear...because it sure doesn't look like it's designed to hold any sort of package.
  • SirBriggs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1They aren't from the 80's they're all at Nintendo World...you know...in the present.
  • crossers, on 07/18/2008, -0/+0yes of course they aren't from 80's!
