Etrian Odyssey IV owners, here’s one more quest you can send your party to complete in the game, if you don’t mind taking orders from some Tumblr blog’s mascot. Though you’ll need to have reached The Hall of Darkness (6th Maze) to access the quest, if you’re not at that point yet, you’ll have this whole weekend to fight your way there! :oP
I was supposed to post this forever ago, I know, but at least more of you will have played enough of the game to be able to unlock the quest now! Much thanks to @oliviactually and @kamiwoo for their help.

Tiny Cartridge 3DS is an idea we can get behind
This isn’t real, I’m afraid to say. Lord Toon imagined the Tiny Cartridge limited-edition 3DS XL you see here.
But I’m down. Let’s make this happen. If you’re at Nintendo, hit us up about this exciting opportunity.
If you’re not at Nintendo, you can still help. Would you be interested in a Tiny Cartridge skin for your 3DS/3DS XL? How much would you want to pay for something like that? Do you know any sites where we can just offer the top cover like this and not that all-over nonsense?
If you need a fun gift to offer your boo for Valentine’s Day — it’s in 10 days! — our Kissing Party stickers designed by Maré Odomo make for a sweet present. They come with other stickers you can decorate DS/3DS carts with (Creepy Black, Letters to an Absent Father, and Tiny Face), and a special virtual bonus, all for $5, plus s/h.

HOW TO Make your own Pokemon (Creepy) Black cart
In search of gift ideas for a gamer in your life, or something to point others to when they ask what you want for the holiday? Tiny Cartridge stickers are here to save Christmas!
Featuring illustrations by Tumblr famous artist Maré Odomo, each sticker pack includes four designs that you can decorate Nintendo DS/3DS games (or anything else) with:
Attract Mode has them priced at $5 a pack (plus shipping and handling), and each purchase comes with a special virtual gift! You can find plenty more gift ideas on the Attract Mode shop, the Fangamer store, and the Tumblr Gift Guide.

By now you’ve probably noticed that some things are different around here – things that have been the same for the last four years. Eric spent all of Sunday implementing our new site design, by the talented Cory Schmitz. We’re pretty happy about it!
We’ve got image dimensions that make sense in 2012, a wider text area to save your scroll wheel, an “Upcoming Releases” page that we’ll likely update consistently this time, and a new responsive design that fits your screen no matter how you resize your browser window – or what kind of device you load it up in. Even Tiny got a makeover!
We’re still working on stuff, so if something looks wonky or doesn’t seem to work right, follow this simple two-step procedure: 1) forgive us and 2) let us know!
We’re honored when anyone wants to hear what we’re talking about, not to mention when someone wants to hear, like, our opinions, and not just our hot picks for Pokemon screenshots.
Simon Carless, UBM Techweb EVP, Gamasutra publisher, Eric’s boss, and general bigshot, interviewed the two of us for his personal website, as part of a series about hobbyist curators on the web. Oh, I guess it is about our hot Pokemon screenshot choices, in a roundabout way.
I think the interview turned out pretty nice! I also think the part where he calls us his “favorite video game weblog in terms of curation” is pretty nice… If you’ve ever wondered why we do this, or why we like the DS and 3DS, please check it out!
And on the subject of Tiny Cartridge minutiae, did you know we almost called the site DS Nuts? I think we could have gotten away with it. I think it would have been really funny. I’m also glad we didn’t do that, for the sake of my business cards, at the very least.

I’m unable to control my excitement about getting to reveal the culmination of literally years of secret work: our Tiny Cartridge X Maré Odomo “Tiny Cart Sticker Pack,” produced and sold by Fangamer.
With these, you can decorate your DS or 3DS cartridges (or, anything, really) with the face of our mascot or the cover of an imaginary game by Maré!
Each sheet includes:
This is basically my favorite thing we’ve ever done, and you can get your own sheet for $5. I hope you enjoy them! Thanks to Fangamer and Maré for working with us on this weird daydream of a project, and thanks to you for even briefly considering a purchase!
Tiny Cartridge in Enslaved: Odyssey to the West? Reader Monodi pointed us to this character art from the upcoming Enslaved ”Pigsy’s Perfect 10” DLC, in which Oolong Pigsy is accompanied by this robotic flying drone thing with a very familiar face.
Yes, I know that a pixelated blue smiley face isn’t necessarily a direct reference to our website, but I find that the world is a much more enjoyable place to live in when I can visualize it as the kind of place where people working on multi-million-dollar game projects for giant publishers let enjoyment of our website help steer their art direction. Plus, that face really looks like Tiny.

Tiny Cartridge in the Scott Pilgrim game? Reader Matty pointed out this detail in the background of one of the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World screenshots released during E3. It features tiny in-game representations of the covers of the Scott Pilgrim comics, with a kind of familiar-looking face where the as-yet unrevealed Volume 6 belonged.
Now, I’m not convinced it’s Tiny, but if you worked on the game, please write in and either confirm it or lie to us!
In other (actual) Scott Pilgrim news, the PlayStation Blog posted a new trailer! With a killer new song!

If you ever wanted to learn more about the two dudes that run this site, Things To Do In LA posted an interview with those assholes. The Q&A covers various topics: where JC and I get our links, how the site’s associated with 4CR, why we started Tiny Cartridge, and more.
It’s, um, an unconventional interview, but Tiny Cartridge is an unconventional site, so it can’t be helped.
While we’re wasting your afternoon with site-related junk, organizers for the Game Developers Conference uploaded video/slides from last March’s “Indie Game Maker Rant”, which featured a series of developers and notable figures from the indie community sharing their frustrations with the industry.
As I mentioned previously, as least two of the speakers gave Tiny Cartridge a shout-out (in a positive note), so, uh, yeah. Yay us. It’s a great/inspiring session, too!

Tiny Cartridge in 3D Dot Game Heroes. The in-game representation of our mascot isn’t perfect, due to sprite size limitations and artist terribleness (the artist being me), but it’s a pretty serviceable way to have Tiny save Dotnia as he was always destined to. Also, that screenshot is quite usable as desktop wallpaper. Just saying.
I’ve sent the data to the official character hub, but you don’t have to wait for Atlus to approve the design and post it: you can download the zip right here, follow the instructions here and have Tiny lost in a freaking dungeon in minutes!
