Today is the long awaited launch day of Sony’s PlayStation 3.  To mark the occasion we scoured the Web for products where fashion and video game culture collide.

It’s not hard to find a t-shirt of a popular video game, especially old school classics like Dig Dug or Pacman.  Here’s a designer Super Mario t-shirt by Dolce & Gabbana.  Better find some real gold coins to afford the $175 price tag.  LINK

Speaking of old school, check out these Space Invader Vans.  Don’t ask me where you can buy them, if you find out, let me know!

Sega lost out in the console war to Sony and Nintendo.  But while the Sega Dreamcast may be gone, you can still pay homage by wearing this watch in the shape of the Dreamcast console.  LINK

Some of the best fashion in video games has to come from the Final Fantasy series.  While you may only dress up as Yuna at a cosplay con, you can always accessorize with a Final Fantasy lunch box.  LINK

Before Playstation, everyone wanted an NES.  A couple years ago, Hot Topix sold these NES controller hot pants.  These are for hard core gamers or women who like having their buttons pushed.
