Show and Tell: And buttons for all

Buttons are important to gamers. Usually, they're our primary method of input, and while some systems (why hello, Nintendo) may be moving us away from that tradition, we'll always have a soft spot for those little buttons.But we're not talking about those sorts of buttons today. We just like 'em. No, we're taking a look at the other sort today, the kind you wear. Badges. Pins. Sometimes, they can be just as important as the buttons on our handhelds and controllers -- if you want to display your likes and dislikes, anyway. And badge-making has long been quite the thing among the crafty gaming contingent. Take the guided tour of our selection of game-related buttons here, or dip into the gallery below wherever you'd like. You might be surprised at what you find.
Gallery: Show and Tell: Buttons!
Show and Tell is all about fan stuff, so long as it's Nintendo-related. We love to see your collections, your crafts, your frosted creations, your t-shirts and swag of all sorts.Just snap a few pictures, tell us what's up, and send it all to showmeit [at] dsfanboy [dot] com. We'll take care of the rest. Not a handy type, but found something neat? Send us a link instead.

I got a free Obama button from MoveOn.org, via GameFAQs advertising. A piece of historical memorabilia, and a token of safe passage after he reveals himself as the Antichrist (Twen-ty Twelve! Twen-ty Twelve!).

Ok, I'm so not pouting about how you never posted my awesome buttons when I emailed you about my eBay store last year. Well maybe a little. Sadly it is no more, but I'll let you know if it's ever back up.

I bought a TWEWY button from Zazzle.
It's the Bat one [: (Since I can't remember the actual name, and don't want to spoil the story for any idiot that hasn't played this magnificent game yet)

I want a TWEWY player pin, the black-skulled one. :(

You can buy them online in various places. Just try searching Cafepress.com for TWEWY for a starting point.

I have a bunch of the TWEWY pins... they're so amazing! Although the sad thing is I have them on my bookbag and no one knows what they are. I'm always being asked what they're from.
Where are all the TWEWY fans?!

Right here.
You and me.

I took the pin images of TWEWY from Wikia, and printed about 60 pins. It's really awesome. =)
