Depends on whether or not you're making the shirts to profit off their sale. If so, you could get hit. If not, then I believe you can continue to have them produced until your heart's content. Now, the shirt shop that's making them might have issues to worry about.

From a legal standpoint it makes no difference. What matters is if Nintendo really cares or not. This I don't know. I wouldn't try to pull something like this with Disney or Warner Bros.

I used to work at a carnival store and Dinsey calls every store in the nation and asks them if they have a Mickey Mouse costume for rent. If they do they get poped as they never endorsed a Mickey Mouse costume. My 185th store landlord owns a mens clothing store and was poped for 8 counterfit warner bros shirts sold by a another clothing store vendor down the street. He explained he didn't know and handed them over. They thanked him and handed him a bill for $8000 or $1000.00 per shirt.

Yeah so I'm paranoid but if one costume is enough for Disney and 8 shirts enough for Warner Bros putting your signature name on 50+ Nintendo shirts and sending them who knows where could be asking for trouble. Don't get me wrong I think it would be great exposure to have such a shirt but I don't want to see you get in trouble for this either. If you aren't sure (I am not sure) then ask someone who would know who you trust before you attempt this.

You want to know about bootlegging, ask a bootlegger. Anyone here do this kind of thing for bands or festivals or stuff? Come on, some hippies selling shirts for grass money, anyone?

I'd be fine with or without the website logo on it...truth be told people are gonna ask where you got it anyways, so whether you tell them or they read it for themselves is irrelevant. Also there's a difference between making 100 bootleg Nintendo shirts and a sweatshop producing 15k hack Mockey Mouse costumes and dumping them into the states...

There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea is asleep and the rivers dream; people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else the tea is getting cold. Come on, Ace, we've got work to do.

I worked at a mom and pop costume and carnival store not a chain. One costume for rental is all it takes for Disney. I don't know if they still do it but they called every shop with a listed phone number nationwide!

If you guys aren't worried hell I'd love to have the shirts. It is something to think about though. Ask the guy at assembler about his run in with Nintendo and the bill they sent him for their legal fees.
