Catering exclusively to your video game passion for Halloween can cost you, but it's all worth it with the right candy. Here's what you need to have.

We found a wall of video game related candy at It's Sugar, our local candy store at the Bay Street shopping center in Emeryville, California. Call around to find out where your nearest candy distributor is and whether they carry these classy gamer treats, or go straight to a manufacturer with some licensed video game products to order in bulk.

The Gamer's Guide to Halloween Candy
  • Wii Remote Gum
  • Nintendo

Candy Type: Gum
Flavor: Peppermint
Number of Pieces: 20
Serving Size: 2 pieces
Total calories: 100
Ingredients: Normal gum stuff, Xylitol, Potassium, Soy
Cost: $3.99
Taste Test: Nice firmness, like a sturdy piece of Chiclets gum. Peppermint is slightly bitter, like spearmint but it successfully freshens your breath for about 20 minutes. Loses its flavor after 30, does not make your teeth feel slippery like Trident gum.

  • Controller Mints
  • Nintendo

Candy Type: Mint
Flavor: Peppermint
Number of Pieces: 83
Serving Size: 3 pieces
Total calories: 280
Ingredients: Dextrose, Magnesium Stearate, Natural & Artificial Peppermint flavors
Cost: $3.99
Taste Test: Curiously mild -- like an after-dinner mint or a super-weak Altoid. Doesn't have a chalky taste, but breaks apart easily in the tin, leaving white smears on your fingers. Slightly sweet.

  • PSP Sours
  • Sony

Candy Type: Sour (dissolves in your mouth like a mint)
Flavor: Cherry Sour (Red Screen), Raspberry Sour (Blue Screen)
Number of Pieces: 45
Serving Size: 2 pieces
Total calories: 225
Ingredients: Normal sours stuff, glucose, FD&C Red #40/FD&C Blue #1
Cost: $3.99
Taste Test: More sweet than sour. Dissolves slowly without leaving powdery residue on the tongue. Sturdy for longer sucking time. Bonus -- each sour has a PlayStation button stamped on it.

-Mobile Icon-While I’d love for Facebook to announce a phone or mobile operating system on Wednesday, I have a sneaking suspicion they won’t. Here is our rationale behind Facebook’s decision to wait.

Largest Announcements Saved For f8

Facebook wants to rally developers around the Facebook phone and the best way to do that would be to make a large announcement about a new “mobile social platform” at f8, Facebook’s periodic developer conference. Just as Apple announced the iPhone with a number of development partners who had already built applications, Facebook would probably want to have a large group of developers on board. While they could already have partners, Facebook would drum up much more interest by bringing developers from around the world to make the announcement.

We’ve Been Wrong Before

Simply put, we get things wrong all the time. While we’d love Facebook to announce a mobile operating system, a new phone, and develop the cure to cancer in a single week, it’s a pretty big project to rebuild a mobile operating system (such as Android). While I have the greatest faith that Facebook has the capability to launch a mobile OS, simply put, I don’t want to set our hopes too high.

Deals Are Being Tested

Last week we broke the news that Facebook is testing a “Deals” product and given that it includes mobile integration, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Facebook officially announce the product this week. If it’s truly ready for testing with large brands, that means it’s extremely close to being ready for full launch. As such, we wouldn’t be surprised to see the Deals product rolled out on Wednesday.

Groupon Is Too Hyped

Seriously, Groupon is making a lot of money but how long can that last? With rapid growth there’s a very good chance they can keep things going but how long is Facebook willing to sit on the sidelines while the company works toward generating more revenue than Facebook with a fraction of the user base? Facebook wants to get in on the action which is another reason to assume that this week’s announcement will be about Deals, not a mobile operating system.

Can’t Come Up With A Fifth

The fact that we can’t come up with five reasons is exactly why we still hope that Facebook unleashes a monster announcement next week, rebuilding Android into the social mobile operating system of the future. Whatever it is, Facebook no doubt believe that it’s worthy of rallying all the Silicon Valley press members for the fourth or fifth time in a matter of weeks. We’ll have to wait and see what they announce!
