@DragonEleven Why exactly would they release another Pokemon game on the 3DS especially if they reach or surpass first year sales goals for the Switch?
I will be skipping out on this even though this time around I actually have friends getting the game. Personally I hope it flops and the switch continues to sell millions.
@AlternateButtons When self-proclaimed white supremacist stop holding rallies where they praise Trump as the second-coming then maybe the sane supporters won't get lumped in with them. It's like my mom used to say 'sometimes the good have to suffer with the bad', especially when the 'good' ones aren't disavowing the bad ones.
It's Pokemon so it was always a day 1 buy for me but I'm happy to see that it's looking more like a Black/White to Black 2 and White 2 situation than a Diamond/Pearl to Platinum. I'm not sure what more people are expecting from a game in the same generation.
I don't own the game nor do I plan to get it but it's good they listened to feedback and decided to change it back. The old icon was a lot better and maintained the Switch sleek interface look. Also a reminder to those being needlessly hyperbolic, it's possible to care about something like this AND major issues like the humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico. It doesn't diminish the others severity. Humans are capable of caring about more than one thing at the same time.
I'm interested in this. The pro controller is too expensive and if I do play docked it's in my room so the wired aspect doesn't really bother me much at all. I have no amiibo so don't need the NFC. Rumble is meh.
I had lots of fun with the demo and it looks great on the switch. However I can't see myself trying to play the whole thing in Japanese. I know Monster Hunter isn't a text heavy game but it still takes me out of when I see the characters. Also I don't know if it's because I'm using an android but the Google translate app doesn't really work well. It kept translating words and phrases to something even more confusing than the japanese.
I only care about Monster Hunter XX. World looks dull and more of that photo-realist crap that developers seem to think everyone in the west wants. Even if they did port it to the Switch I wouldn't buy it. Monster Hunter X has already been released so the base game is there. It shouldn't take this long to announce a plans to localize XX. I'm not expecting it this year if they do but a word on it would be nice. Don't give me that crap about it affecting MH Stories sales because Stories is a different type of game.
I'm going to download the demo and then decide if I will import from there. I definitely want a physical copy if I do. I generally put in a couple hundred hours in Monster Hunter but prefer physical copies of my games. I just hope the youtubers who plan to do in-depth guides hold to that or at very least I can navigate quest easy enough with an online guide.
For some reason trying to play ARMS and Splatoon online causes constant disconnections even when I'm right next to my router. I can't justify buying games that require heavily on online play when I can't even play online.
I love how so many are writing them off when we know next to nothing about them. They don't come out until November, that's enough time for a direct outlining exactly what's new.
He sounds bitter and the comment about Iwata was way out of line. Unless he was in the room with Iwata when he was being diagnosed by his doctor and all follow-ups I don't think he has any ground to make such a statement. When the Switch is surpassing goals left and right I hope Nintendo reminds him of these comments when he wants a game on it.
I went to Walmart yesterday and they had 2 switches in the display case. I asked the electronics employee if they had more in the back and she said she believed so. I called the Target down the road and they said they have some in the back just not in the display case.
Of course the first time I'm scheduled to work in the morning in months is also the day we have a direct lol. I'll watch it later when they put it on youtube.
I'm far more excited for the 3DS games coming. As far as Switch titles go I'm looking at ARMS, Mario + Rabbids(need to see more gameplay of this though), Mario Odyssey and Skyrim for Switch.
I admit that I am very salty about there not being MH XX for the west so this E3 was just okay for me. Nintendo won but not by much in my personal opinion. I am very happy for 2018 though.
I have literally zero interest in any of the games PS4 or xbox have on their systems so I would have to buy one of those just to play this. I'll pass. I don't think I'll buy it even if they do port it over to the switch in a year. It's not going to sell and the fact that they have such a low sales projection considering it's going to be on 3 platforms tells me they know that.

Re: A New Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Trailer Arrives, Along With Famitsu Details
I would be less interested in Pokemon if they scrapped the story parts of it. I actually liked SUMO's plot.

It's Pokemon so it was always a day 1 buy for me but I'm happy to see that it's looking more like a Black/White to Black 2 and White 2 situation than a Diamond/Pearl to Platinum. I'm not sure what more people are expecting from a game in the same generation.

I had lots of fun with the demo and it looks great on the switch. However I can't see myself trying to play the whole thing in Japanese.

@Priceless_Spork and then sue the family of the person you killed and win millions in emotional distress money.
