  1. Dead Poetic band merch. A little-known post hardcore band from the early 2000's. I've got all of their CDs and some limited press Vinyls, but I would kill for some legit shirts. Years ago I found a sketchy site that claimed to have a handful left, but they were all too small. I wish now I still had bought them anyways, but oh well.

  2. A GameBoy game I played as a kid that was some kind of JRPG. It wasn't a well known one like Chrono, Mother, Final Fantasy Tactics, etc. I have searched through lists online and tried finding screenshots and videos of gameplay, been through several hours of vids, but nothing I've found has been it.

  3. A stupid video from the earlier days of YouTube called "The Poop." There is a "The Poop 2" but it's not the same. My friend and I found it randomly on some late night YouTube binge and cried laughing. It became an inside joke between us for years and we would link the video to each other or sing the music from it for instant laughter. It either got privated or deleted. I've spent hours and hours combing through the depths of YT and the internet at large trying to find a copy/reupload, same for my friend, but we've never found it.

Number 2 is SOLVED!!! Holy crap, I literally just randomly found it. Talking about it here inspired me to try some more Google-fu and I happened across an ebay listing for Quest: Brian's Journey and the cartridge artwork immediately jogged my memory. Looks like I mis-remembered some details, that makes me even happier that I found it!

Going to be totally NOT downloading a ROM to play on my Steam Deck this evening...I would never...

  1. I remember being gifted this weird JRPG for the Gameboy that was not even localized, and being a stubborn kid I randomly went through its japanese menus trying to see what each thing did, but gave up in the end. Years later I had a flashback and went to YouTube, only to find it was actually an incredibly mediocre Gundam RPG called Lacroan Heroes. It's a long shot, but that's the most obscure JRPG I know of for the Gameboy, maybe that's it?

What a pull! Hopefully this is it or offers some additional insight! Nice work.
