We’re here at E3, and we realize the focus should be on the games, but we did take a small detour and poked around the merchandise store for some sort of souvenir (somehow, I wasn’t satisfied with the mutant rabbit balloon swag from Sunset Overdrive). Overall I wasn’t impressed with the T-shirt designs or commemorative mugs inscribed with “E3,” but there was one exception.
First, a look around the merch store:
▼ “Swag bags” for $2
▼ “Single Gamer looking for Wi-fi”
▼ For the ladies.
▼ The “Player 1” and “Player 2” kids shirts were pretty cute.
▼ We saw a Japanese man buy 25 of these $1 pens…for omiyage no doubt.
▼ E3 logo hats.
▼ And E3 pajamas to remember your time at the expo while you dream.
▼ “I don’t quit – I restart” & “I’m kind of surprised I’m not an action figure by now.”
It was sea of black, grey, and subdued blue hues…with a splash of tye-dye and obligatory pink for the lady gamers. But as we made our way to the front counter, a bright pink sign caught my eye.
▼ Is that what I think it is?
▼ Oh my!
That’s right, official E3 condoms! I secretly hope they have the E3 logo on the actual condom so you can literally be inside of E3 while E3 is inside of you. But alas, I will never know. The thrill of the Destiny demo called me away back to the showroom floor and I left the merch store empty handed.
And don’t worry folks, Booth Babes, swag, and cosplay photos are coming up soon!
