VANCOUVER, Wash. (NBC/KGW) - Think your jack-o'-lantern looks extra cool this year? Well, a Washington state man may have you beat.

He created a pumpkin that doubles as a portable version of the Tetris video game.

Nathan Pryor of Vancouver, Wash., carved the grid and loaded it up with LED lights.

Then, came the small task of loading up the video game.

The stem is the joystick, but Pryor said if he did it over again he might put the joystick inside a separate pumpkin.

His high score? Some 9,800 points.
