The 3rd Birthday: "Look at all this stuff you unlocked for finishing the game. You can dress up Aya in a maid outfit that makes Maaya Sakamoto do a cute moe moe voice. You love Maaya!" Me: "But I'd have to actually replay The 3rd Birthday, right?" T3B: "Well... yes, but..." Me: "I'm good."

Game: "Please customise your car." Me: "Trans flag, number 69." *an hour passes* Game: "You've now unlocked a brand new car after clearing the lightweight tracks. Would you like to change its colou-" Me (threateningly): "Trans flag, number 69."

You wouldn't steal a car anti-piracy notice, but it's edited to read "You wouldn't densh a ttack".

Edited opening narration to Super Metroid. It reads I first battled the Metroids
on planet Zebes. It was there
that I foiled the plans of
the Space Pirate leader
Mother Brain to use the
creatures to attack
galactic civilization...
But none of my battles could
Prepare me for my greatest
Challenge ever:
A spooky ghost.

"Maria, he told me I was a 'pain in the neck'. Does he not like me, or was that another joke?"

Edited screenshots of Alucard talking to Maria in Symphony of the Night.

Alucard: "I met Belmont in the castle. He seemed... strange."

Maria: "Strange? You mean he seemed possessed?"

Alucard: "He started telling me Dracula jokes. Said he needed to "workshop" them.

Maria: "That... sounds like Richter to me."

Romance.

The famous "epic handshake" meme image with two burly arms clasping hands. One arm is labelled "The first level of The Ooze". The other is labelled "The Labour Party in 2026". The point where the hands join is labelled "Toxic Dump".

Richter talking to Maria in the ending to Symphony of the Night. Richter's dialogue is edited to read "So then I said, 'I guess that makes you her Dracula ex.' See, like the game title."

Second screenshot of the ending. Maria is now facing away from Richter.

Richter: "Wait, where are you going? Maria?"

The Ooze magazine ad (1995)

Edited image of a game ad showing a stereotypically nerdy kid in glasses holding a game boy. A large box of The Ooze for Mega Drive is edited in beside him. Beneath his feet, text reads "nice glasses i'm being sincere they suit you". The heading reads "hey game boy, can't get a game girl? ready to take it to the next level?". Smaller text below reads as follows:

You've probably heard that from ads before,
huh? And you know who thinks that kind of
attitude is straight up toxic? The Ooze, star of
the new game The Ooze™, only for Sega Genesis™.
And as a scientist turned into radioactive
goop and flushed down the toilet, The Ooze
sure knows toxic!

Look, man, I'm going to level with you: The
Ooze would tell you you're just fine the
way you are. You're just a kid. Don't let
insecure dirtbags in advertising make you
feel insecure.

Take your time to enjoy life and find out who you
are before you start worrying about "scoring
hot babes".

You'll meet girls eventually. And when you do, you'll
realise those "babes" are just regular folk like you. Maybe
you'll date some of them. Or maybe you'll realise you
just like them as friends, and prefer guys. Maybe you
won't want to date anyone. That's fine too. The Ooze
thinks asexual folk are bodacious.

What I'm saying is you gotta be like The Ooze. Don't
worry about moving on to the next level. Just keep
seeking your own.

Oh, and keep the Game Boy. Great little handheld. I'm
partial to Link's Awakening. The Ooze is more of a
Bubble Ghost kind of guy.

Crap, this was meant to be an ad, wasn't it?
Buy The Ooze. It's good.

Uguuze~

Edited Symphony of the Night screenshot. Richter points to Dracula in the intro and says "I heard you had another wife before Lisa. Is that true?"

Edited Symphony of the Night screenshot. Dracula responds "What? Oh, yes. Dear Elisabetha. We were close once, many years ago..."

Edited Symphony of the Night screenshot. Richter raises a fist defiantly to Dracula in the intro and says "Nice. I guess that makes you her... Dracula ex."

Edited Symphony of the Night screenshot. Dracula stands up from his throne and raises a hand, yelling FUCK YOU BELMONT.

Weirdly cute, honestly.

Screenshot of Sunset Riders on Mega Drive. Simon Greedwell, a gangster in a red jacket and brown fedora hat, lies dying on the ground. A speech bubble edited "bury me with my money" is edited to rad "throw me to the lesbians".

The MIDI arrangement of Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want. *chef's kiss*

Still from Ferris Bueller's Day Off showing the three main characters all making the same pose with their arms folded in an art gallery during a scene that famously uses the same song by The Smiths.

Everything else aside, you can clearly see that that's not a USB connector. Is zooming in on photos a lost art or something?

Since I don't have a flashcart for my DS lite, I just stuck a random physical game in my bag to take with me while travelling for my consultation. Have been playing Matrix Software's 3D remake of Final Fantasy III. And man, this really is still an NES game, huh?

Final Fantasy III running on my DS Lite. My characters are all level nine, and I'm running a warrior, red mage, monk, and white mage at the current time.

Aspirational. I'm well on my way too.

The three girls also start out living in empty rooms, but you can have them invest time into decorating while they're not active. I was especially touched by the brusque lone wolf character who is initially opposed to teaming up, but winds up painting a mural of the trio on her wall by the end. <3

A picture of Lanan's room fully upgraded. It's full of paintings and an easel, and there's a large mural of her and the other characters covering one wall.

"Your hair's an impossible colour!" You'd think in a school with multiple girls with blue hair, she wouldn't be too startled by Sunohara's bleached blonde. But I guess not.
