Just one week after buying a 3DS, this guy felt compelled to get a tattoo on his wrist to commemorative his love for Nintendo’s latest plaything. Rather than a little sketch of Mario or Link, he got an augmented reality tatt that can be read by his 3DS, as you can see in the video below.

He’s bloomin’ lucky it actually works, though he does say there are a few issues when it’s trying to read the tatt in bright sunlight. Imagine if it couldn’t actually be read by the 3DS’ camera—that’s suddenly one big black question mark you’ve got permanently marked on your wrist, buddy. [IHeartChaos via Technabob]
