Tiny Cartridge

That’s right, things are getting super spooky up in this piece. Look at that cat with its bow tie; that fellow is up to no good. Also, the other stickers glow in the dark, so you know something is about to pop off. Stickers? 3DS? Ghosts? You know the drill.

With Halloween coming soon, now is the perfect time to hawk our junk remember everyone’s favorite creepypasta and haunted video game, Pokémon (Creepy) Black. Guys, wouldn’t it be crazy if (Creepy) Black was real? Like, if you could pop a cartridge into your system, show it to your friends, and see them flip out? What if I told you there’s a way to get your own (Creepy) Black DS or 3DS cart? Or that if you’re reckless enough to try it, you can relive the story on your system? So, submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, I call this post… How to make your own Pokémon (Creepy) Black cart! That’s right, it’s about to get hella spooky up in this piece. (Creepy) Black - Pokémon Trainer edition If all you want is a cartridge that looks like (Creepy) Black, there is a certain spell to summon such a creature, one that was hidden in ancient Sumerian tablets recently discovered in the vault of an eccentric billionaire and artifact collector who vanished mysteriously. The cuneiform script, which instilled a sense of dread and despair in anyone whose eyes simply grazed their form, was eventually translated and posted online as a PDF. For this fun craft project, you will need: A DS or 3DS cartridge you won’t mind defacing 2 drops of Thieves Vinegar At least 4 coffin nails, 8 if you want to play it safe The Tiny Cart sticker pack, containing four amazing Mare Odomo-designed DS/3DS stickers, all for $5 A handful of soil once trodden by a Gengar Detailed instructions for making a (Creepy) Black cart: Throw away the vinegar, coffin nails, and soil Put the (Creepy) Black sticker on top of the label on your DS or 3DS cartridge — if you want, you can apply the other stickers to other carts That’s it! You now have a (Creepy) Black cart! (Creepy) Black - Pokémon Master edition Presumed lost forever when the Library of Alexandria burned down, there was once a scroll detailing a forbidden ritual allowing DS or 3DS owners to experience a visual novel re-telling of (Creepy) Black. Only recently did the scroll’s text re-appear on the back of Club Nintendo code inserts included with Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir. For this terrifying ceremony, you will need: This link open in a separate tab, to play in the background and make everything seem extra creepy A homebrew device that works with your DS or 3DS The Tiny Cart sticker pack, a common ingredient valued by all practitioners of dark magick Oil of Abramelin, full bottle 1 feather from a Shiny Lugia, deceased or alive 1 branch from a rowan tree charred by lightning Multiple: Option’s Pokémon Ghost Black ReTold If you’re mad enough to go through with the ritual, make sure to follow these elaborate steps exactly as described. Failing to do so could leave your soul trapped in Yu-Gi-Oh’s Shadow Realm for centuries, if not forever. Wait for a moonless night to conduct the ceremony — make sure there are absolutely no mirrors or anything reflective nearby Cast a standard protection spell with the feather, branch, and oil to ward off Ghost-type Pokémon that will be sure to attack you once they sense the ritual Copy Pokémon Ghost Black ReTold from your PC to your homebrew device (or use other fanmade Creepy Black hacks/homebrew, if you want) Apply the sticker to your homebrew device When you hear the sobs of Gothitelle behind you, and you see your shadow sprinting away, you’ll know that you’ve successfully completed the ritual. You now have your very own Pokémon (Creepy) Black cart. But at what cost?* Buy: Pokemon Black/White Version 2See also: More Pokemon news and media[Fantastic Pokemon Black illustration via Tubbypaws] *As mentioned earlier, the cost is just $5 for the Tiny Cart sticker pack — which includes four stickers — before shipping/handling.

Creepy TV commercials for Japanese games. Are you actually playing or planning to play horror games this All Hallows’ Evening? Are you that person all these sites are writing “Top Games To Play This Halloween” posts for?

If so, here are some ideas! There’s even a new fan translation for the last title in the video, Nanashi no Game. Or if you’re looking for something more recent to play on your 3DS, there’s always Gabrielle’s Ghostly Groove, Ghost Trick, Aliens: Infestation, or, uh, Professor Layton and the Last Specter?

Paper Mario and Vivian trick or treating. Either that or they stole some family’s pumpkins like a bunch of jerks. So, either your Halloween’s all over or you’re getting ready to celebrate the holiday — what did you dress up as? Did you get to do anything fun in costume? My wife and I dressed up as Ash and Kristofferson (in bandit masks) from Wes Anderson’s interpretation of Fantastic Mr. Fox, and spent a few hours at a metal concert filled with other dressed-up hooligans. It rocked! Buy: Paper Mario games See also: More Halloween posts! [Via Round Cat]

Spooky iPhone ‘sound action’: Chunsoft’s Kowa-Oto

If you’re looking for a hella scary Halloween-style game for your iPhone today, I may have found just the thing. With pretty much no fanfare, Chunsoft put three games on the US App Store, including Kowa-Oto, which I think translates to “scary sounds.” The “sound action game” is a first-person maze in which sounds alert you to the distance from both the exit and a cursed doll wandering the area. Scaaaaarryyyyy. Actually, I haven’t put my $2 down, so I have no idea how scaaaaaryyyyy it is. Here’s an iTunes link.

“Hear the dry cackling sounds surrounding you in the dark… Can you escape from the dungeon to see the light of day again? It challenges your hearing!”

Two other Chunsoft games are also available: Rush Hour Train (iTunes) about optimizing train occupancy, and Escape Flash (iTunes), about finding the way out of a room after seeing it for just a moment. They aren’t particularly scary-looking, but they are free. And, I don’t know, maybe they were developed on top of an old graveyard, or with a cursed keyboard or something.
