I wish Rose Belmont was real. ## Interesting Stuff ### Ariana Grande - Touch it (Final Fantasy Version) With **Final Fantasy Resonance** coming out soon, have this [very real thing that actually happened](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxxNlIfn-Pk). ### Mario Galaxy Classic Controller Patches [[Less Doomscrolling More Silly Lil Tech Toys|Silly little tech toys]] are all the rage these days, so if you wanna play a pretty good platformer — or its sequel aka the best platformer of all time — on one of them, [use this thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/retroid/comments/1au9sl8/fyi_you_can_patch_mario_galaxy_12_to_have_classic/). It lets you play the games without need to shake a controller or have an IR pointer. ## Planted Recently ### Thoughts on Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse Shockingly, I actually *don't* talk about [[Castlevania - Belmonts Curse|how hot Rose Belmont is]], but just now that she is. Very much so. ### GG Habibi Episode 14: We’re So Back In [this episode](https://gghabibi.captivate.fm/episode/were-so-back/), I lament the state of the [[Street Fighter]] movie and harp on [[Ace Combat 8 - Wings of Theve|Ace Combat 8]] and [[Onimusha - Way of the Sword|Onimusha]]. Meanwhile, Al finally finished [[Clair Obscur - Expedition 33|Expedition 33]] and ponders over picking up **Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave** now or later. And then we yell at the Game Industry for an hour before technical issues make Al get King Crimsoned lmao. ## Media Corner ### Games Finished: - [[2 Ship 2 Harkinian|The Legend of Zelda: Majora Mask]] - Final thoughts to come. Playing: - [[Castlevania - Belmonts Curse]] - **Cult of the Lamb** - So much has been added to this game since I last played it that it feels like an entirely different game. Might write about it once I get to the **Woolhaven** expansion. ### TV/Film - [[Street Fighter]] - **The Thunderbolts** - I will absolutely be writing about this as well. ### Music - **HYPERFIGHT 2** - Hagane - **Fanclub (2026 Remaster** - Asian Kung-Fu Generation ## Status Update Rose Belmont. ## Signing Off I hope your Sunday is treating you well.
