DS Daily: A practical Halloween

Dressing up for Halloween is fun, but looking like H.R. Pufnstuf is bittersweet if you can't get in a couple of minutes of Face Training in under the mask between parties. To that end, we'd like you to get creative. What are some possible Halloween costumes into which you could integrate some cleverly concealed DS storage space? If you've already got a costume picked out, how could a DS-able pocket be added to it?

Alternately, should you decide not to bring your DS, the space in question could be filled with candy.

Maybe a person could just not play video games for one night of the year, and perhaps, well I don't know, but maybe trying socializing at a party instead?

You sound like you'd be a riot at the party in question.

Hi, is this the room for the 'people with no sense of humour' support group?

While it may look lame, the old ghost fashioned out of a sheet allows you to play DS *under* the sheet with steel appearing hidden and ghostlike (or sheetlike.. .).

I imagine if one were to construct an Optimus Prime costume, one could theoretically store the DS either where the Matrix goes, or possibly in/as the Matrix.
Or you could go as a Pirate and stuff it in the Parrot.

Tall fridge box = Tetris costume.

Just don't cut any arm holes and you can freely DS-it-up all night.

In response to 1 and 3 I don't take my DS lite outside with me anymore because it attracts too much attention now.
