Celebrate Halloween With Nintendo Life's Exclusive 8-Bit Decorations!
Posted by Jon Wahlgren
Print 'em, cut 'em out and scare the retro crap out of everyone.
Ah, Halloween, the one day of the year where little kids are encouraged to defy all parental advice and take candy from strangers. It's so close you can almost feel the post-holiday sugar hangover. Are you excited? Nintendo Life is pretty excited, and that's not just the sugar talking.
We all got so excited that we teamed up with our resident 8-bit artiste extraordinaire pixelman to bring you some exclusive spooky retro decoration goodness to terrorize your household. Hooray! All you gotta do is right/option-click the images you want and choose "Save Linked File As" or whatever similar action your operating system calls it. And print them too, obviously.
Hang them all over the place and make the rest of your decorations jealous. Or, in case you need a last-minute costume, just attach one to your face. Eye holes be damned!
Big thanks to pixelman, and keep your eyes on Nintendo Life for more Halloween funtime!
 Zombieo! |
 OH NO A GHOST |
 I am only a pumpkin |
 She'll turn you into a newt! |

I thought these could be awesome avatars to use for when we post on Halloween, any objections?
#25
TanookiMike said:
Have you ever considered using your talents in an indie game development? Your work is excellent!
#26
pixelman said:
@odd69: I don't have any objections. Go for it.
#27
pixelman said:
@RaccoonMario: Yes, I actually do do a bit of programming, and I'm hoping to sell some games in the future.

Terra said:
Nice work pixelman. I really like that Pumpkin Link. It's weird but something about that picture reminds me of Charlie Brown. Not sure why
#38
pixelman said:
@Terranigma: LOL, you're right, he does look like Charlie Brown.

SilentJ said:
Nice job, pixelman!

+5 for all these, man. They're excellent.

Looks like I found this year's Halloween costume!

StarBoy91 said:
I just have to ask, if you don't mind my asking: who's arm is that sticking out of the cauldron?
And, wow, I thought I was the only one who thought, "I got a rock!" regarding Terranigma's reply.
#46
Terra said:
I had a feeling someone would say that line.
#47
pixelman said:
@StarBoy91: What color is the sleeve of the person in the cauldron? :3
#48
StarBoy91 said:
Bright green.
#49
Odnetnin said:
"@Chicken: Cue, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cTwVrRRa-A" - pixelman
Perfect.

pixelman you sir are very talented. keep up the good work.
#51
pixelman said:
@StarBoy91: So what famous Nintendo character wears bright green? :3
#52
StarBoy91 said:
OMG, it's LUIGI!!!
#53
Odnetnin said:
@pixelman I'm at a total loss here.
@StarBoy91 Hint: He aint no Hero of Time.
EDIT: Er, too late.
#54
pixelman said:
LOL, gotta love the delayed reaction.

SmaMan said:
Dorm room door, here they come! Unfortunately I don't think many of the people on my floor would get it. The VG buffs/other awesome people live on the next floor up.
But they're still going up! Awesome job PixMan! You got some serious sma for that. (and that's a good thing, don't worry)

Great work, Pixelman!

Omega said:
Not bad, Pixelman. Now if you could make some more (with animation frames), you can possibly team up with Swerd_Murd (who imports them into MMF) and you two make the first NintendoLife freeware game.
#59
pixelman said:
@Omega: I'm already programming a freeware game. :3
#60
zezhyrule said:
Can I use the link-o-lantern as my avatar?
#61
Omega said:
@Pixelman: Ah, okay. I thought as much. - Looks interesting. What is it? A kind of old school Action Adventure? Release Date? It's interesting that some of the members here are not only gamer but are into game making too.
#62
pixelman said:
@zezhyrule: Sure.
@Omega: It's kind of an old-school Zelda game with some Action RPG elements thrown in. No release date yet, but I'm hoping to finish it by the end of the year, if all goes well.
