Easy to depict in low resolution.

Earthbound did it as a Stand By Me reference
The following ones did it as an Earthbound reference

Only shirt variation you can have with sprites that small.

The ever increasing push for woke

Very common boys to wear striped shirts back in the day. Itoi probably used American media like Andy Griffith and Leave it to Beaver as a reference. And from there the rest copied used the design.

Doc... you deal in mimigas now?

This is one of the most iconic photographic depictions of America of all time, up there with the Iwo Jima flag-raising and Falling Man. Full-body chills

>>717218021
Oh, I get it. The merge already happened, it's, by now, a stable loop. The striped shirt iconography is simply so strongly entwined within that artists pick it up even years before it comes to be via the cognitive remnants of the loop.
How frightening.

The Japanese fucking loved Stand by Me and Toby loved the games those Japanese people made.
A rare example of the Japanese having good taste.

>>717218021
lol was thinking the same thing

>>717215506 (OP)
it's what kids wear!

Would I look weird wearing a Kris sweater at the age of 26?

>>717218021
the sonichu medallion is like the one ring
every time someone gets a hold of it their entire life gets destroyed and they start looking like Gollum

I'd assume you were autistic

>>717219721
but you probably shouldn't ask /v/

>>717218021
That shirt is kinda fire tho unironically. Does anyone know the exact brand or whatever so I can buy it?

>>717215506 (OP)
I like whatever the fuck Madotsuki wears. Is it like a mini-chess board?

>>717220240
It's a Ralph Lauren rugby shirt. They don't seem to make Chris' exact shirt with the white space between the red and blue striped anymore. His is like 20 years old at this point.

>>717220839
It's a FNAF 1 reference

>>717220925
Fuck that shirt is so cool.

>>717218021
how has he managed to maintain a relationship with this girl for so long after having sex with his mother?

>>717215506 (OP)
solid answer is avoiding flat spritework, the stripes give "3D" depth and improve the sprite color scheme. notiice how these are used to separate the arms from the torso in lucas and ness
>>717215720
notice how faggot fox followed this trend

>>717220839
Thats because shes a 3 time chess world champion. It's okay if you didn't know the lore is pretty hidden.

You clearly understand that insane men exist but you don't seem to understand that insane women exist

It's the essential quirky Earthbound-inspired indie RPG look.

>>717215506 (OP)
It's just a common symbol denoting that the character is a child.

>>717223484
Gosh, you're right Sonichu, there are homos everywhere! And, I am straight!

>>717218634
Stand By Me and The Goonies. Japan REALLY loves stories about kids going on adventures.

You wanna talk about real cultural death in the US this right here is the sadd3st fucking shit. You see culture war fags talking about needing strong men back but really kids growing up need this kind of shit. Kids need to see other kids figuring shit out.
