Retro Game Halloween Costume Ideas Gallery

Jennifer Williams October 25th, 2019
This one goes out to one of the greatest gaming love stories of all time. Pacman and Ms. Pacman are an easy choice for a classic video game couples costume, however traveling with this might be take a little thinking.

Let’s be honest, Halloween is the best time of the year. It’s where you can let out all of your creativity and cosplay as your favorite character throughout the entire month of October, and it’s completely acceptable! And retro games have some of the best costume ideas around. So, we put together some great retro game costume ideas, just in time for Halloween!

 

  • ZELDA

    For the love of Zelda! A classic look for the classic gamer girl. Although, for those who would like a bit more of an edge, Sheik might be a better option. Find yourself a Link, and you could have a great couples costume idea!

  • Sonic The Hedgehog

    GOTTA GO FAST! Sonic's classic blue color and fashionable red shoes make this a fun option and one that will get plenty of attention at your next Halloween party!

  • Nintendo Gameboy

    For the guy who just can't choose a character, you go as the console. The original Nintendo Gameboy was a game-changer in the video game market, and an obviously brilliant costume option!

  • World Of Warcraft

    For those with a great deal of imagination and creativity, Warcraft is an amazing way to celebrate a fantastic franchise, and also add your own creative flair. Your Tauren Warrior, or Night Elf Rogue characters would look amazing on you!

  • Mr. & Mrs. Pac-Man

    This one goes out to one of the greatest gaming love stories of all time. Pacman and Ms. Pacman are an easy choice for a classic video game couples costume, however traveling with this might be take a little thinking.

  • Donkey Kong

    The legendary gorilla, Donkey Kong! How could we make a retro costume list without him? An easy go to and a hit at parties!

  • Tetris

    For those who like the idea of protection from spilled drinks, Tetris Blocks might be a way to go. Although, without a few other Tetris Block buddies around, it may be difficult for others to identify.

  • Super Mario

    An obvious classic, but one that takes a lot of time to get right! This plumber has gone through many renditions, but still a great option to become the hit of any party!
