Kanthos Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 So, I'm thinking of going to the midnight launch at the EB Games store where I pre-ordered the 3DS, mostly for the novelty of taking my son to it just for fun. Then, I was thinking it'd be fun to put him in some kind of video-game-related costume. I don't want to put too much effort into it or spend anything on it. He'll be in his carseat anyway, so it can't be all that complicated. I'm thinking something like a red t-shirt or onesie and red baseball cap, put a yellow star on the shirt and call him Diddy Kong, something of that nature. Too bad we don't have any red clothes that are anywhere near his size. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XZero Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 If you buy yellow poster board (I know you didn't want to spend money, but how much could it possibly cost?) and use a pair of scissors and a Sharpie, you could make a pretty cute little Pac Man costume.

Brushfire Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Put little dangly arms and legs on the Carseat, cover up all but the kids head, and give him a crown. He is now MODOK! The Mini Organism Designed Only for Kidding-Around. Or if you are super lazy, but still have a crown, put the crown on the kid and he is now Beowulf in 3D. Or get a Mighty Ducks Jersey, an aviator cap and goggles, and viola! Emilio Ehrheart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thylacine Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 A Pikachu costume wouldn't be too bad. A yellow jacket, some bunny ears (which should be available right around now) colored apropo, and painted red cheeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Late Mistakes Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Using the diddy kong idea and sticking with Pokemon, can always make him Red/Ash from the original, celebrates both nintendo and the missingno tracks release. if not, can make him Ness from earthbound. A onesie with some painted newspaper stripes to make plumber overalls for mario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanthos Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 If we had a coloured ball cap, I'd either go with the Diddy Kong outfit or put a blanket on him like a cape, put an M or L on the hat, and call him Baby Mario or Baby Luigi (of course he'd have to be wearing a bit more than just a diaper; it is Canada after all). What I think I might actually go with, is he's got a sleeper with monkeys on it and a monkey hat (the main part of the hat is a face, with monkey ears sticking out). I'll make him a tie out of red construction paper and he can be Donkey Kong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abadoss Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I'm surprised no one's mentioned just normal Mario. A red longsleeve shirt, a pair of blue overalls, and a hat. (Moustache optional.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diodes Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Well whatever costume you end up going with, pics or it didn't happen!! That is going to be way too adorable!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I second the MODOK idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramaniscence Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 So THIS is why you stopped just shy of getting exalted with all the Goblin Cartels. A noble sacrifice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike911 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Well whatever costume you end up going with, pics or it didn't happen!! That is going to be way too adorable!! I must know more. This is both awesome and hilarious at the same time and now the story has a cliffhanger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kureejii Lea Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 It probably wouldn't be something you could just throw together, but a little moogle suit would be bloody adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanthos Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 And we didn't end up going. He didn't sleep well Friday night, and didn't sleep much on Saturday, so bringing him would've been a bad idea. However, here's the monkey sleeper (only, no DK tie). Also, a moogle costume would be amazing! Maybe for Halloween. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
