Musk shared news of the Halloween event on Twitter, no other details were included, but it follows rumors that Neuralink has offered to buy its rival Synchron, which recently completed the first brain-chip in a human.

He recalled playing the original 1981 Donkey Kong at the Mini Mart in Culver City, California, and called Bowser one of the greatest video game villains of all time.
