So I’ve never owned a PS2 copy of Kingdom Hearts that’s in good condition, and I played Chain of Memories on GBA; so I found these for cheap and had to add them to the collection.

Embrace Your Dreams✨ #FF7R

Tifa’s endgame weapons in FFVII Rebirth are the Járngreipr, meaning “Iron Grippers” in Old Norse. They’re named after the gloves of Thor, the Norse god of storms. This may explain why the Járngreipr are found in the ToA’s Corridor of Currents, amid the Lifestream tempest.

Wanted to have a little bit of the 2000s energy with me today, so I brought the DS to work.

Asked why Nero has his arms restrained and straps around his face, DC Scenario Writer Chiba said Nero was constantly rampaging around so he had to be put in restraints. The straps are there to prevent various substances from being expelled from various places. (DCOCG, 2006) #FF7 #DirgeofCerberus

AC Cloud dealing with his grief and sorrow and how its portrayed; hits a little differently knowing that Nomura/Nojima wrote this version of Cloud as someone who just show up to his hometown and got stabbed vs. defeating his childhood Hero and throwing him into the pool of Mako in the Nibel reactor.

Prove You're Human (sunset visitor 斜陽過客, 2027)

1000% this. Don’t let capitalism stop you from enjoying media you love or want to experience.

Took the kids to see Super Mario Galaxy. It was more entertaining than the first movie. Can't wait to take them to the inevitable Super Smash Bros. movie when they're all teenagers.

Rev your battlebikes for Fan Festival 2026! Tear through the realm astride the Hardy-Daytona, now available on the FFXIV Online Store! 🏍️💨 sqex.to/ffxivstore

In Last Order and Before Crisis FFVII, Sephiroth voluntarily jumps into the Lifestream in Nibelheim. This was the official version of the event around the time of AC, and is even mentioned in the Reunion Files. However, fan outcry led to it being changed back to the OG version for CC. (IGN, 2008)

Also, if you want a deep cut: Octopath Traveler devs (Acquire) got their start with Tenchu on the PS1 and Way of the Samurai on the PS2. Lots of hidden gems in their catalog imo.

Another part of the collection complete. Anyone have an SD card with the WiiWare games on them??🤣

My friends, I'm so grateful. The Kickstarter for MYTHS & TRADITIONS THAT INSPIRED FINAL FANTASY TACTICS was funded in under 15 minutes, but those early backer rewards are running out fast. Best grab them while you can. Once they're gone, they're gone. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mjg...

The Black Mages - The Black Mages i'm not a fan of "arrange" albums for game music, but this is something else. If you can deal w/ the cheesy synths this is strong prog metal - the Gilgamesh theme is total NJPW entrance music! Highlights: Clash on the Big Bridge, J-E-N-O-V-A, Dancing Mad

FFVII's art director, Yūsuke Naora, felt very satisfied the moment he saw the ending of Crisis Core. Because it's the last part of the timeline, he is also interested in the future after Dirge of Cerberus, specifically the future of Genesis. (CCU, 2007) #FF7 #CrisisCore #DCFF7

Celebrating Taxmas with an adventure to the park and some impulse shopping. Local retro shop sold their copy of KH:358/2Days, but I snagged their import copy of FFX.
