I couldn't turn down this Kirby sandwich I saw at Family Mart. The stars were calling out to me, whatever they're made out of.

Final Fantasy IX pop-up cafe near Shinjuku, Tokyo station. Stumbled into this place today. Reservations are required, but the food looks good and the FF9 collectables are some of the best I've seen.

Rydia did end up getting some MTG Final Fantasy cards. Just gleefully wiping out her enemies with a Mist Dragon.

Afternoon of Angels: Part III Bangaihen
"What are you going to do, wait until she turns around?"
This game was one of the first Japanese VNs that got a IBM-PC release. Because IBM-PCs were popular in South Korea at the time, this allowed it become very popular there.

This Nintendo Game Boy ad is so 90s.

Lord of the Rings: Return of the King for PlayStation 2.
This looks like original art. I don't see it in any of the film advertisements.

A Grand Theft Auto mobile game (not really). But based on this advertising, how many people bought it thinking it was?

Really liking how the MTG Final Fantasy cards turned out.
One character I'm surprised didn't get a card is Rydia. She was a key player in FF4's story. A card with her summoning Mist Dragon or Titan has tons of potential.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Nintendo Power Issue 32
Final Fantasy 9 was unique in the tying an Eidolon's strength to items in the party's inventory. For example, Shiva has a base power of 36, but gains 1 power for each Opal the party has. You can quadruple her strength when holding 99 Opals.

A forgotten Legend of Zelda game? I found this advertisement in the German language Club Nintendo magazine (Dec 1998).
A couple of people on Reddit mentioned that it was a unique Zelda browser game, but it's vanished from the internet. Archive has basically nothing saved for it, too.
how did I not know this. Just canceled my Spotify sub, thanks

Last year, I made this video with the intros of all games that Squaresoft published, 120 in total, before it merged with Enix. It's the most complete list of their games I know of. It includes the Satellaview, PocketStation, and mobile games.
The art focus started in game one.

Finally completely this mysterious game after many starts over the years.
As a kid I always thought Illusion of Gaia shared some secrets of the universe in it. And maybe it's true.
