The original Dreamcast controller was a revolutionary device when the console launched in the late ’90s, but in 2025, it might feel dated for retro gaming fans. Luckily, the Retro Fighters D6 wireless controller just launched, which aims to give Dreamcast fans a more modernized gamepad. It’s also compatible with the Dreamcast, Nintendo Switch, and PC, making it a great device for playing on original hardware or playing ports of Dreamcast games, such as the upcoming inclusions of Power Stone 1 and 2 in the Capcom Fighting Collection 2 launching later this year.
$55
Available in both black and white models, the Retro Fighters D6 Dreamcast wireless controller features a six-button design and a D-pad with dedicated Kailh micro-switches. There are also two customizable modes for the C and Z buttons, including a classic Dreamcast mode. It also uses 2.4 Ghz wireless technology via a dongle that can be inserted into a Dreamcast or other compatible devices. This makes it well-suited for fighting games on the Dreamcast, like Street Fighter Alpha 3, Soul Calibur, and Marvel vs Capcom 2. The Retro Fighters D6 Dreamcast wireless controller also works on PC and Nintendo Switch.
If you’re looking for other modern-style gamepads that are great for playing older video games, the upcoming 8Bitdo 64 Bluetooth controller is worth checking out. The wireless controller is geared toward people who are planning to pick up the new Nintendo 64 FPGA console, the Analogue 3D, but it will also be compatible with PC, Switch, and Android devices. The controller features a similar layout as the original N64 controller but with several improvements, including anti-drift Hall Effect sticks, a more modern ergonomic design, wireless Bluetooth connectivity, and support for 8BitDo’s desktop app that lets you customize button layouts and more.
The 8BitDo 64 Bluetooth controller is scheduled to launch for $40 on June 30 and will be available in black and white models. However, it’s likely that the launch date could change, considering the Analogue 3D console was recently delayed. Nevertheless, you can preorder both models at Amazon.

The Performer’s Daughter, Buku Abi, Joined List Of His Accusers
MEGA
Last year, The Blast shared that the singer’s daughter, Buku Abi, born Joann Kelly, came forward to recount the horrific details of the childhood trauma she allegedly endured due to her father.
Andrea Kelly, the ex-wife of the convicted singer, has shared her experience along with their three children in a new two-episode documentary titled “R. Kelly’s Karma: A Daughter’s Journey,” aired on TVEI Streaming Network.
In this documentary, they recount their personal stories, highlighting the impact of Kelly’s actions on their lives. Despite these revelations, the convicted singer continues to deny all allegations of wrongdoing through his attorney.
Buku noted that the alleged abuse happened when she was 8 or 9. However, she did not inform her mother until 2009, when she was 10, in her words:
“I just remember waking up to him touching me. And I didn’t know what to do, so I just kind of laid there and pretended to be asleep.”
Buku eventually shared with Andrea details about an alleged incident, prompting her to seek justice by filing a complaint with the police under the name “Jane Doe.”
However, she expressed disappointment, stating that the case could not be prosecuted due to a lengthy delay in reporting the incident. So, at that point in my life, I felt like I said something for nothing.”
Buku opened up about the profound impact her father’s alleged abuse had on her life. She expresses the deep emotional turmoil she faced, confessing:

“He was my everything. For a long time, I didn’t even want to believe that it happened. I didn’t know that even if he was a bad person that, he would do something to me.”
Kelly’s Daughter Was Allegedly Mentally And Emotionally Scarred By The Incident

The singer’s child added that the whole event took a bad toll on her mental and emotional health, so much so that she cowered into silence and refrained from sharing her pain with anyone.
“I was too scared to tell anybody. I was too scared to tell my mom. I really feel like that one millisecond completely just changed my whole life and changed who I was as a person and changed the sparkle I had and the light I used to carry,” she explained.
Buku added that after she confided in her mom about her feelings, Andrea, her brother Robert, and her sister Jaah distanced themselves from Kelly and stopped visiting him.

She added that she still struggles with the emotions tied to that choice and her overall experience. Her mother finalized her divorce from Kelly in 2009 and has also accused him of abuse.

The aftermath of the alleged abuse left Buku struggling with her mental health and resorting to self-harm to get over the pain.
“I just got to a point where I didn’t care anymore. I didn’t care if I lived or died,” she said. Buku recalled her mother noticing her poor state in a Target bathroom.
“I was washing my hands, and she saw that my wrists were all cut up, and she just immediately dropped everything, and she was asking like, ‘What’s going on? Are you OK?'” she recalled.
Buku continued that she “broke down” at her mother’s concern and had to tell her she was feeling suicidal. “I don’t think I’m OK. I don’t think that I can do this. I don’t think that I’m gonna make it through to live out the rest of my life,'” she disclosed.

R. Kelly’s name remains boldly written in the black book, and it is not going away anytime soon!
It’s been over a week since the world learned about the shocking deaths of Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa.
And for most of that time, the circumstances surrounding those deaths were completely baffling to investigators.
Hackman was 95, so normally, his passing would not merit much of an investigation. But his late wife was only 65, with no known health issues.

Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa’s causes of death revealed
Earlier today, the New Mexico Office of the Medical Investigator announced the findings of the couple’s autopsies.
The examiner announced that Hackman died of heart disease and complications caused by Alzheimer’s.
Arakawa passed away from a rare illness known as hantavirus pulmonary syndrome. It is usually spread by rodents.
The medical examiner estimates that Hackman died on February 18, roughly one week after Arakawa.
. Obviously, there are still many questions to be answered about this highly unusual case.

Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa death scene continues to confound investigators
Adding to the mystery is the fact that the Hollywood legend and his late wife were found dead in different parts of the house.
One of the couple’s dogs had passed away, but two others were still roaming the property.
Initially, many presumed that the deaths were the result of a gas leak or carbon monoxide poisoning, but those theories were eventually ruled out.
Now, a professional medical examiner is positing a new possibility that might help explain how two seemingly unrelated deaths happened one week apart in the same residence.

Medical examiner says deaths may have been the result of ‘broken heart-type’ situation
James Gill is the Chief Medical Examiner of the Connecticut Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. He’s not participating in the investigation into Hackman and Arakawa’s deaths, but ahead of the official findings, he shared his informed outsider’s theory with People magazine.
“From the initial kind of circumstances, it seems like he may have collapsed. He’s got a history of heart disease. He’s got a pacemaker. So that would not be unusual,” Gill explains.
“But the unusual part is that why then did she also collapse? Assuming she would’ve found him. Then you start wondering about: There is this thing where the stress of seeing someone die that could have triggered a natural death in her.”
Gill says the most likelt possibility is that Hackman “found [Arakawa] and was going out to get help or get his phone, and he then collapsed from the stress of that, too. Just as likely. He’s older, he’s got known heart disease. But the autopsy would certainly show if she had heart disease or cancer or what have you.”

The ME explains that two natural deaths occurring around the same time “has been known to happen, kind of a broken heart-type thing, almost.”
“Suddenly finding your loved one dead on the floor that can increase your adrenaline and that stimulates your heart to beat faster, and that can put your heart into an irregular rhythm,” he says.
Gill notes that prescription pills were found scattered near Betsy’s body, a detail that could be a clue. Perhaps she was engaged in a last-ditch effort to treat a known, existing illness.
He explains that after finding a loved one, “people get very despondent and they do something to take their own life, and that may be with pills or what have you. I think the toxicology workup will be helpful in excluding causes such as an intoxication or injuries.”
It now seems likely that Hackman was unable to seek help or alert the authorities to Arakawa’s death because of his advanced Alzheimer’s.
For now, the mystery remains unsolved

Gill concluded by cautioning that we won’t have the full story until medical examiners complete their investigation.
“I think the autopsy and the toxicology testing is what’s needed to be seen in order to make that final determination,” he says.
“Otherwise, it’s kind of speculation at this point.”
Since he made those remarks, the ME’s office has announced their findings, but alas, many questions remain.
We’ll have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Solana degens are flocking to the Bitcoin Pepe presale.The Solana army has joined Bitcoin Pepe’s meme crusade, and this meme-centric Layer 2 has already raised $3.7m to build ‘Solana on Bitcoin.’ BPEP is not just another meme coin but a Layer 2 seeking to hyper-scale the Bitcoin economy. It merges Solana’s speed with Bitcoin’s security and introduces the PEP-20 token standard. This breakthrough enables permissionless meme coin creation natively on the Bitcoin blockchain. Something that people once thought was impossible. Raising a whopping $3.7m in 24 days, all eyes are on this up-and-comer. Read on to find out why Bitcoin Pepe could transform Bitcoin and memes forever.
The Mechanics of a Meme Coin Revolution
Bitcoin Pepe is the scaling upgrade Bitcoin needs. It will execute transactions off-chain while anchoring security to Bitcoin’s base layer via sending bundled transaction summary data. Offering instant trades, near-zero fees, and a native DEX tailored for meme coin mania. Early adopters are securing a front-row seat to Bitcoin’s reinvention.
The genius lies in the simplicity. While the tech stack is complicated, the end result is straightforward. The PEP-20 standard lets anyone create memes and allows existing memes to be redeployed on Bitcoin. Bitcoin Pepe’s bridge unlocks $2 trillion in liquidity. What happens when this much capital meets meme coin mania? This could easily trigger the next leg of the ‘Memecoin Supercycle.’
The project’s roadmap is a meme trader’s dream. Launch native DEX specialized for memes and launch bridge to unlock BTC liquidity. BPEP will be the gas token powering every swap and launch, which could create a massive flywheel of organic demand for BPEP.
Why the Solana Army has Joined This Meme Crusade
While SOL may be down 50% from its ATH, it does not change one fact. SOL’s overwhelming success this cycle came from memes. The Solana community thrives on speed and speculation. Now, they’re pivoting to Bitcoin Pepe because BPEP offers something SOL cannot: Bitcoin’s brand equity.Bitcoin’s meme layer could easily dwarf Solana’s, and even the presale structure fuels the frenzy. With a 2.1B total supply and 30 stages, investors have the chance to get in early. Price increases by 5% in each stage, and anyone buying today will already be sitting on 200% gains by the time BPEP hits exchanges in Q2. Solana’s traders obviously recognize the asymmetry in the current price of $0.0255 and the potential price of BPEP if it successfully recreates the Solana growth blueprint.
How to Join the BPEP Revolution Today
Bitcoin Pepe isn’t chasing trends—it’s creating them. Merging Bitcoin’s unmatched security with the velocity of meme culture could be a trillion-dollar niche, and BPEP has cracked the code. The presale’s current velocity proves that market demand exists, and Bitcoin Pepe may even become the ultimate meme coin incubator. The window is narrow, with each presale stage selling out faster than the last. The Solana army isn’t waiting. Neither should you. Bitcoin is about to evolve from digital gold into the internet’s meme engine, and everyone holding BPEP will have front-row seats.

In latest TOWIE news, Bobby Norris has revealed he’s in hospital after discovering a ‘lump’ on his testicle.
Bobby, 38, told his Instagram followers he expected to have an op today (Friday March 7) – and he described the situation as “not great”.
The TV personality shared the update on his health after visiting his doctor about the issue last year.
He also urged men to check themselves regularly – and not to be embarrassed about seeking medical advice.

TOWIE news: Bobby Norris latest
Bobby said in his Reel: “I’m currently in hospital as I have to have an operation today.
“Some of you might remember that a few months back I found a lump and had gone to my GP. And then I was referred to go to a specialist and have further tests on it. I was told to keep an eye on it.
“And we’ve kept an eye on it… sorry, I don’t think I’ve kind of explained. So I found a lump on one of my testicles and so we’ve kept an eye on it. Not great. I’m in hospital today having an operation on it.”

‘I am scared’
Bobby went on: “I just want to stress for any guy watching this – it’s so important for everyone to check themselves. You have to check your body as much as possible, because we’re the first to know if any changes happen.
“Don’t be embarrassed. Especially men, we feel embarrassed to go to a hospital and drop our Calvins for a doctor. Don’t.”
Bobby also admitted to his fears around surgery. “And of course, I am scared,” he continued. “I don’t like the thought of having it opened up like a Babybel. But it’s got to be done. So check yourself, guys.”
Bobby added in his post’s caption: “If you find a lump or something that doesn’t feel right, do NOT ignore it and just hope that it will go away. It is so important that we get into the habit of checking our bodies regularly so we can notice any changes.
“Don’t delay and put it off, make an appointment to see your doctor and get it checked. We all know our bodies and when something doesn’t feel normal or right.”
Well-wishers deluged Bobby’s post with positive and supportive comments.
“Good luck and hope everything goes well for you Bobby,” wrote one follower.
“Wishing you the best, hope all goes well and you have a quick recovery,” typed another.
And a third person contributed: “Wow Bobby, you are so thoughtful, caring and bloody amazing to send this message to check yourself at this delicate time as you are waiting for your op. You’ve got this, thinking of you.”

Ok, so, as you might be aware, Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza In Hawaii contains some golden balls, and they can belong to Goro Majima. Well, provided he goes around and collects all seven of them as part of a sub-story.
Yep, sorry folks who might have taken the headline a different way – these are actual balls made of gold you’re tasked with gathering from various locations around the various places the Goromaru makes port, a bit like you could in Like A Dragon: Gaiden. There’s been a bug that’s made it impossible for some folks to obtain them all, but it’s been fixed. Please stop throwing rotten vegetables and threatening to set Kiryu on me.

This bug fix comes as part of the game’s latest update, patch 1.12, which RGG has released today – March 7. “Fixed an issue where the golden ball could not be obtained”, reads the full note for that particular tweak.
How enigmatic, RGG. Which ball was the issue? What caused it to become unobtainable? Did it maybe get nicked by one of the game’s many booty-hungry pirates who aren’t former Tojo Clan bigwigs? We’ll seemingly never know. The balls are back, to paraphrase what Thin Lizzy once sang, them wild-eyed balls that had been away. And that’s all that matters.
Anyway, the patch’s other fixes across all platforms are as follows:
Fixed an issue where manual saving was not possible.
Fixed an issue where loading a save data on a ship under certain conditions would cause the player to fall into the sea and be unable to return. (That one sounds fun)
Fixed an issue where arcade game rankings were not being saved.
Corrected various typographical errors and improved localization issues.
Various other bug fixes to improve stability and quality.
There are also a couple of PC-specific changes which’ve updated to the game to Intel XeSS 2.0.1 and “fixed a rare crash issue that occurred during resource loading”. Also, if you’re experiencing random driver crashes on certain NVIDIA GPUs, RGG reccomends you go into the settings and cap your FPS at 60.
If you’ve yet to try Pirate Yakuza, make sure to check out my review of it, which only contains some gentle worry about whether not finding a middle-aged Japanese guy showering funny means I might have lost my humourous edge.

In Brief
Bitcoin fell below $80,000 and recovered to $90,000 as a $1 trillion crypto sell-off raised concerns of further declines and a potential market collapse.
Bitcoin has tumbled below $80,000, clawing its way back to $90,000 as a brutal crypto sell-off wipes out a staggering $1 trillion from the global market — sparking fears that the worst may still be ahead.
The steep slide—a 25% plunge from Bitcoin’s record high of nearly $110,000—has rattled even seasoned investors, with insiders sounding the alarm over suspected “price suppression” tactics.
With analysts urging traders to resist the temptation to “buy the dip,” the focus has shifted to uncovering the root causes of this crypto bloodbath — and whether this correction could spiral into a catastrophic, full-scale market meltdown.
What Went Wrong?
Announcing a sweeping 25% tariff on imports from Mexico and Canada, set to start on Tuesday, President Trump stunned world markets. The unexpected decision quickly turned investor focus from high-risk assets like cryptocurrency onto the wider economic effects of rising trade conflicts.
Along with a dramatic decline in U.S. equities from recent record highs, analysts mostly blamed Trump’s growing trade war for the abrupt crypto market sell-off.
Agne Linge, head of growth at decentralized on-chain bank WeFi, noted that the Crypto Fear & Greed Index had slumped to just 21, its lowest reading since September—reflecting mounting anxiety among traders.
The timing of the tariffs only added fuel to existing economic concerns. After months of cooling inflation, the sudden threat of higher import costs raised fears that consumer prices could surge again.
In response, many investors began to anticipate that the Federal Reserve might hold interest rates steady at 4.5%—or even consider raising them—to help rein in any inflationary spikes caused by trade policy shifts.
Meanwhile, James Toledano, chief operating officer of crypto wallet Unity Wallet, observed that many in the crypto industry felt deeply disappointed by Trump’s latest moves.
Experts Alarmed by the Downfall
Ruslan Lienkha, chief of markets at bitcoin and crypto platform YouHodler, pointed to technical analysis that identified the $70,000 level as bitcoin’s “next key support zone.” However, Lienkha stressed that Bitcoin would likely only test that level if negative sentiment continued to dominate the equity markets.
Although the U.S. stock had already shown many consecutive losing sessions, he advised that it was still too early to say if the more general rise had completely reversed, implying that the current deficits may just be the result of a regular market adjustment.
Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, echoed similar concerns, noting that bitcoin’s current price action closely followed an ascending broadening wedge pattern. This formation typically signals a potential target price in the low $70,000 range.
Bybit Hack Piling On
The broader market instability was further amplified by a $1.5 billion hack targeting Bybit, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges. The attack, now considered one of the biggest crypto heists in history, rattled already uneasy investors who were also contending with renewed fears over inflation and the Federal Reserve’s recent decision to pause interest rate cuts.
Jeff Mei, chief operating officer at BTSE, explained that the Bybit breach had triggered heightened volatility across the market. Macroeconomic factors including continuous inflation and uncertainties about U.S. monetary policy had also affected investor mood and helped to explain the larger market decline, he said.
Trump’s Policies: A Silver Lining?
Some crypto investors are still optimistic despite the continuous slump as they see possible legislative changes under the Trump government.
Not so long ago, the president issued an executive order establishing a national crypto reserve and encouraging innovation in cryptocurrencies inside the United States.
To provide a clearer legislative framework for digital assets, his government has also established specialized task teams including the designation of a “crypto czar.”
Geoffrey Kendrick, head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered, suggested in comments to CNBC’s Squawk Box Europe that Bitcoin could still surpass $200,000 before the year’send of the year. He attributed this potential upside to rising institutional adoption and the expected regulatory clarity that could follow from the administration’s evolving crypto policies.
Crypto Reserve to the Rescue?
On Sunday, President Donald Trump revealed plans for the U.S. government to establish a national strategic crypto reserve that includes five key cryptocurrencies. Trump reiterated his ambition to position the U.S. as the “crypto capital of the world.”
On Truth Social, Trump explained that an expert panel is moving forward with plans to create the reserve—a commitment he made to crypto industry advocates during his election campaign.
Initially, Trump listed XRP, Cardano, and Solana as part of the planned national crypto stockpile. However, about an hour later, he followed up with a separate post clarifying that Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) would also play central roles within the reserve, given their dominance in market value.
Markets reacted positively to the announcement, with Cardano soaring nearly 60% — jumping from $0.64 to $1.13 before settling back to around $0.99 by Wednesday. Solana saw a bump from approximately $141 to $178, while XRP surged roughly 20%, climbing from $2.23 to $2.96, currently sitting at $2.48.
At the same time, Bitcoin reached $94,000, up from around $86,000, before settling just around $90,000.
Is an All-Time High Possible in 2025?
Legendary trader Peter Brandt recently expressed his opinion on the present situation of bitcoin and stock markets on social media, noting that the extraordinary volatility over the previous week provided enormous profit opportunities and great risks for traders.
His remarks highlight a basic fact of trade: great volatility may either be a trap or a gold mine. Strong risk management and long-term planning are even more important as some traders profited on the erratic market fluctuations while others suffered large losses.
Meanwhile, an analyst at CryptoQuant, Axel Adler explained that for Bitcoin to return to its all-time high, the market needs to see a significant bullish push. This would require breaking above the Short-Term Holder (STH) Cost Basis level, estimated around $90,000 to $91,000, and holding above that level to rebuild investor confidence.
With that in mind, traders may need to exercise patience, as Bitcoin could enter a prolonged sideways trading phase over the next two to three months — a pattern that has played out in past market cycles.

Cardano (ADA), XRP, and Solana (SOL) – Tracking Their Next Big Moves
Cardano (ADA) Gears Up for a Breakout Past $1.53
Cardano (ADA) has demonstrated impressive strength, surging 46.76% over the past week and gaining 202% in the last six months. Currently, its price fluctuates between $0.76 and $1.33, showcasing significant volatility that presents both risks and opportunities.
Technical indicators suggest that ADA could sustain its upward momentum. The 10-day simple moving average (SMA) stands at $0.95, slightly above the 100-day SMA of $0.92, signaling short-term bullish sentiment. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 49.17, positioning ADA near neutral territory but with room for growth. The stochastic oscillator at 18.46 indicates that ADA may be oversold, suggesting a potential rebound. The MACD level remains positive at 0.001651, reinforcing a bullish outlook.
Looking ahead, ADA faces a critical resistance level at $1.53. If the price successfully breaks through this point, it could open the door to the next major resistance at $2.00, representing substantial gains from current levels. On the downside, the nearest support sits at $0.384. A drop below this level could lead to a more extended correction.
With ADA showing continued strength, traders are closely watching whether it can sustain this momentum and push beyond its resistance points.
XRP Tests Key Resistance as Uptrend Continues
XRP has made significant moves, gaining 17% in the past week and an astonishing 394% in the last six months. While the coin has seen a 5% decline over the past month, it remains in a strong long-term uptrend, currently trading between $2.26 and $3.32.
Technical analysis highlights a potential continuation of this bullish trend. The 10-day and 100-day SMAs are both near $2.50, showing price stability. The RSI sits at 64.39, nearing the overbought zone, which suggests that traders should watch for potential resistance. Additionally, the stochastic indicator at 71.07 confirms strong momentum, while the MACD level of 0.02169 reinforces a bullish outlook.
The next crucial level for XRP is resistance at $3.70. A decisive move above this could propel the price toward the second resistance level at $4.76, marking another significant potential upside. On the flip side, the nearest support sits at $1.58. A breakdown below this could lead to a sharper correction.
With technical indicators suggesting further strength, XRP’s ability to break through $3.70 will be a key factor in determining its next direction.
Solana (SOL) Navigates Volatility with Resistance at $216
Solana (SOL) has experienced mixed price action, rising 10.02% over the past week but facing a 31.23% decline in the past month. Despite this short-term drop, SOL has still climbed 19.14% over six months, maintaining an overall bullish outlook.
Currently trading between $142.88 and $197.43, Solana remains volatile, but its technical indicators provide some insight into its possible direction. The RSI stands at 56.93, reflecting neutral sentiment, while the stochastic oscillator at 75.36 suggests that SOL might be approaching overbought conditions. The MACD level of 1.5661 supports the idea of continued bullish momentum.
Solana’s nearest resistance is at $216. If the price can break past this point, the next major target would be $271, potentially delivering significant upside. However, if Solana faces rejection at these resistance levels, traders will be watching the support levels at $107 and $52.41, which could act as safety zones in case of further corrections.
Given its overall upward trajectory and key resistance levels ahead, SOL’s next move will be critical in determining whether it can sustain its long-term bullish trend.

In Brief
Unichain plans to launch the Unichain Validation Network, which will further decentralize the platform by allowing anyone to run a node and verify blocks.
Ethereum Layer 2 network Unichain announced its plans to introduce the Unichain Validation Network (UVN), which will further decentralize the platform by enabling anyone to run a node and verify blocks. This addition is aimed at improving the network’s finality and reducing the chances of conflicting blocks.
The UVN will consist of full nodes that will validate the blocks posted by the sequencer to the mainnet. Validators running these nodes, along with their stakers, will be compensated for their efforts, with 65% of Unichain’s net chain revenue being allocated to them in return for securing the network.
The first version of the UVN will be tested on the Unichain Experimental testnet in the coming months to assess its stability and performance. After the testing phase, the UVN will be officially launched, and validators and stakers will start earning 65% of the network’s net chain revenue. During this development phase, while the validator network is still being built and tested, the Unichain Foundation (UF) will direct the chain revenue to the Unichain Growth Reserve. These funds will be used to support Unichain’s growth efforts, including accelerating developer engagement and subsidizing on-chain activities.
