My dmg01 sits next to my bed, recently I have not had the batteries in it as they are being used in my sons glow worm toy, last night I woke up and my screen was glowing And the Nintendo logo that appears on bootup was replaced by a simalir logo with the words "intend No" .
An awful high pitch scream like tone was coming from the speaker, I checked the battery compartment and sure enough the batteries were not in there  but the screen was still glowing and the sound was still coming from the speakers, the screen then started to flash in a simaliar way to what it does when I trigger the clock mod on it and then (I feel strange telling you guys this but I'm freaking out here and need some help) I am sure it said my IRL name...... But I can't be sure, the screen was definitely on and there was sound coming out, the logo was different though.... Maybe it didn't say my name , maybe I was just freaking out... I don't know.... It then turned off. just click...off.

Has any thing like this happened to any of you dudes? I find it super hard to believe that it even happened to me I feel like I am losing my mind....

Can the circuit board store enough power to make this kind of thing happen with out the batteries being present? (screen light up, speaker make sound) I can't be 100% sure of it saying my name but everything else definitely  happened...

Simaliar stories? Advice? Help!!!!!!!!!!

Did you get your DMG at a garage sale? If so you should do some research on child deaths or murders in the area you got it from.

You have suffered a sleep paralysis hallucination, it is something normal for a chipmusician.

This is a common problem for early model DMGs. The main cause is linked back to Gunpei Yokoi sacrificing his first born to become market leader, during early design stage.

Luckily, all it takes is a standard exorcism, and the issues should stop bothering you for a few months.

Man that's nothing compared to what you have to do to exorcise Gunpei's other kids out of a Wonderswan.

This issue is fairly common on most DMG's iirc. Look into the holy water mod, totally fixed it for me. I'll post a tut later on.

That's a good story, but I used to have a haunted GBA that kept telling me to kill people, kill people.
Thankfully, I dumped that creepy 'ol thing off at a goodwill in another town.

Ok.
So I see most of you think I'm joking.
But this is serious , it happened again last night, and what's more I woke my partner and she saw and heard it too!
We are both tottaly freaked out, I thought i was going mad, and I had not told my partner for fear of looking crazy, but now she too has seen it with her own eyes...

Does anyone know of this kind of thing happening with any kind of videogame console in the past?

We are getting in a medium later this week

Until then any advice?

Paint your DMG shell black, then draw a pentagram on it in lambs blood.
