Some idiot (me) standing with his back to the camera, wearing a black hoodie with Benjamin printed on the back.
A photo of various Romeo is a Dead Man goods. A Chikuta-kun pin badge, a bottle of yuzu spice with a Benjamin sticker on the lid, a sticker featuring the titular Romeo, and a New Years postcard with a badass horse wearing Romeo's helmet.
Romeo is, in fact, a Dead Man!

Wow, just like that... I'm shocked! I guess I should have seen it coming.
Thanks for sharing. 🙇♂️
I just want you to know this joke was very good.
Copies of the Japanese 360 version of Red Seeds Profile and PAL Gamecube version of killer7 that Swery and Suda graciously signed, along with the Hotel Barcelona Room 6551 wristband and keychain.
Very much looking forward to Hotel Barcelona and Romeo is a Dead Man!
Hotel BarcelonaとRomeo is a Dead Manを非常に楽しみに待ってます！

You could always get one of these and slip it inside the case? Haha
(Though I haven’t been able to find it yet…)
A shelf of Switch and Switch 2 boxes at the electronics section of a Lotte Mart in Seoul.
A Switch 2 box on a (messy) living room table with a Japanese copy of Mario Kart World next to it that I ordered online along with the AC adapter I mentioned in this post (not pictured) immediately after buying the Switch 2, lol. They were waiting for me at the door when I got home! The convenience of the internet!
I went to Korea for a few days last week and, after having zero luck with the My Nintendo Store lottery for a 多言語対応 Switch 2, I realised mid-trip that I could buy one there tax-free!
After buying a Japanese AC adapter, I didn’t end up saving any money, lol… but at least I can sleep easy now!
If you're a longtime followers, you know how much we both love this game. I'll keep begging to get my localizer mitts on it, but in the meantime, you can play both the 3DS and PS3 versions in English and the latter even emulates at 4k60 now. Y'all have no excuse not to try it and fall in love. 😌
And for everyone else...
IT'S EX TROOPERS TIME

Yeeeeessssss! Very much looking forward to this!
An assortment of killer7 nonsense, including the various GCN and PS2 versions from each region (three of which are sealed because I’m an idiot), preorder bonuses, the Japanese guide books, soundtrack, and hand in killer7.
I also have this large uk store promo box thing for some reason. Come to think of it, I also have some Japanese and UK store posters, too, that I need to get framed… or something!
Happy birthday, killer7. This game changed my world. There’s simply nothing else like it!
Really hope we’ll see a director’s cut or sequel someday.
Loved the trailer. Really took me back to that time my grandpa saved my life after getting half my face mauled off with the Dead Gear Life Support System.
............Wait, you work WHERE?!
Damn, Ingame Empire’s a good feature title, haha. Can’t wait for Suda and Sekine to discuss Inland Empire in the next Cinema 51! (One can dream 😅)
Damn, I didn't know it was lost media! I'll have to see if my old iPod touch still has it installed next time I visit home...
Ahh man, that's so cool! The soundtracks for The Silver Case and killer7 are incredible. ;-;
Really regret not picking up the rest of the Pokemon games I didn't have before they shot up in price, haha. ;-;
Really took their cheapness and commonness for granted pre-covid!
Some Flower, Sun, and Rain nonsense laid out on a table, including the original Japanese PS2 version, the European and Japanese DS versions, the Japanese Official Fan Book and Japanese Music Clips DVD.
Happy Birthday, FSR!
I hope we can meet Sumio again someday…
I think I showed you this last time I went back to New Zealand, but I still have your Zelda print!
Wow, that is one disgruntled looking cat, ahaha
TWO things to look forward to?! You spoil us, Craig!
The 3DS side project sounds really fun! Looking forward to it. :)
It’s not too late to justify your decision and play V and VI on the go, right?! :)
Oh, and thank you @alexfkraus.bsky.social and @chestnutvinegar.bsky.social for posting about the announcement here! Might’ve missed it otherwise.
A Japanese PS4 copy of Final Fantasy I-VI Collection: Memorial Package.
Yay, glad this finally got a domestic reprint!
I’d been umming and ahhing over importing the western PS4 version, so I’m glad Square finally decided to rerelease it here.
No idea what took them so long…
Yeah, if it's just about the logo, that would make a *lot* more sense, ahaha!
SUN + K(ids) + US?????? Utter bullshit if you ask me.
I was always baffled by this chain’s name, haha. My best guess was that it was some abstraction of “thanks” or maybe trying to imitate “Toys R Us” lol, but apparently it’s… THIS?!
An overhead photo of some of my favourite games, smushed together in an artistic mosiac kinda thing on the floor. It's a nice mix of popular stuff like Final Fantasy 12 and Phantasy Star Online, alongside less well known titles like Illusion City and Fantasia Sango 2.

Later that afternoon, I accidentally zapped the guy at the supermarket, too.
Joke didn’t go over nearly as well with a bag of carrots…
I bought some eneloops at Welcia today, and when I handed them to the guy at the checkout counter, we got zapped by static electricity.
I said, あっ、充電できました/“Oh, they’re charged.” and he humoured me with a laugh.
It’s so great to see you raising your profile, Jonathan!
