NoA are keeping their noses clean while the ironic first-amendment-anti-cancel-culture-free-speech-absolutists hold power. Let's hope it doesn't have to be for long.

@outsider83 This current trend of pearl-clutching control freakery in America isn't a "woke"ness problem. Quite the opposite.

@Kyloctopus We sure do! Don't yuck our yum.

New system must have a whole honking load of instability to patch out.

Yeah, Game is terrible and Mike Ashley is the worst kind of chancer. I keep on wondering what will be the last straw for that company.

That big bump in OS memory is not all gamechat. With a resolution bump, image and video processing is a lot more memory hungry.

Maybe one day we'll have pokemon with fur.

I despise humans and do not want to hear their hateful voices while I'm playing. No thank you.

Haha no, I went be risking an entry into Trump's America to see some plastic Pokemon skeletons thanks.

I wrote a greasemonkey script to click the cookie for me. I didn't want to click the damned thing.

What a tin-eared response.

So when you say "fully customisable protagonist" do you mean FULLY customisable?

Of course they're sending every available Switch2 to America before the tarrifs hit. They'd be mad not to.

Anyway, why would you put yourself at risk of seeing tweets? Any tweets?? Do you really value your sanity so little?

Are there spoilers for the boob slider?

Never browse the eShop. Not even once.

In comes capitalism to spoil everyone's fun.

When it comes to starter-picking I always go for raw cuteness. Grass-types have the edge here very often: think Sprigatito, Snivy, Bulbasaur and of course Chikorita.

Totodile is appealing too, but somehow it doesn't seem as pokemon-like as many of the others. It looks like mascot from a different franchise. I always pass it up.

Tepig sucks.

Don't forget the breathless announcement of some routine Tera Raids and outbreaks!

Do pheromosa next

Just discovered they've got these Gardefus up for pre-order at the UK pokemon shop for £399.

That's tarrifs. Hope you like them.

Oh, the wonderful portraits of Willem Dafoe that the dear old Shattered filled the Rabbids Miiverse with. Every wrinkle on his cheeks, every popped vein in his eyes, lovingly rendered. I miss them.

Do I need to pay the others in this serious first, or can I dive right in?

They don't know what the price will be. I don't think we're getting a price announcement until Cheeto the Clown's tarrifs are understood. One thing is for sure: US tarrifs will affect the price worldwide: if Nintendo have to eat a loss in US pricing, they'll claw it back from the rest of us.

@Lord The money isn't collected until the end of the campaign. If the campaign is cancelled, as in this case, it does not proceed to the pledge collection phase, and no money changes hands.

There's lots of "removed: inappropriate" going on here.

Looks interesting. Hopefully the review will help me to decide whether to buy, and whether I should start with earlier installments in the series.

I guess as a WW2 veteran, Tolkien didn't have the long fame in Japan that he had in the West? The Western release shouts Middle Earth, the Japanese one just looks like an apology for itself.

What's everyone getting so upset about? Plushies are MADE FOR CUDDLING.

Omg the share price!!! WHARRRGARBL

Twenty million isn't going to be enough for year 1. Looks like scalpers are going to have another field day.

No specs.
No price (of course).
One game.
No surprises.
Wake me later.

If they're announcing anything, it's not going to be the price. Nobody knows what anything's going to cost next month.

Game innovation is all about iteration. Rogue Legacy is better than Rogue, Hades is better than Rogue Legacy. Maybe Pokemon might do better to iterate a little bit more on their tired RPG formula, instead of going after other people who do it.

> When do you think we'll see the Switch "successor" released?

Why in heaven would you ask us? We're about the daftest people in the Internet.

Finally Ninty's legion of terrifying prosecutors has found something helpful to do. Go ahead and win precedent, folks! We're cheering you on from the cheap seats.

Oh Ubisoft. Do you think you could at least try to make my boycott of your games a little challenging?

I voted "probably" but I won't be buying. They're just not for me.

Who cares if emulating hardware and copying firmware is illegal? If the law is an ass, I'm not going to respect the law.

Physical is so often cheaper at launch (due to competition I guess), you're a mug if you buy from the digital monopoly.

Maybe our old friend Reggie can pull some strings and help us out here. Anyone tried asking him?

FINALLY some crab news.

World of Goo has one of my favourite soundtracks of all time. I will definitely be watching this one.

> Will you be picking up this one on Thursday?

Not without seeing a review first.

Why is everyone flailing about as if there haven't been non-pokemon cute catchathons before? Look at Temtem. Look at WoFF Maxima.

Why is everyone champing for Nintendo to sue over this? Did we want somebody sued when Rogue Legacy improved on Rogue? Did we want somebody sued when Hades improved on Rogue Legacy?

Is Pokemon S&V really so good that we want to go to the wall defending its creators?

Pokemon could just throw us a few quality-of-life bones and it would make a huge difference. They could cut the menus down by half just by asking a UI expert. They could borrow the streamlined catching mechanic from Legends Arceus. They could improve inventory sorting. They could represent combat information graphically rather than having us click through endless dialogs. "It's super effective!" Yes I know.

There are hundreds and hundreds of pokemon designs, most of which use the standard rules of cute. There's a pokemon of almost any animal you can think of. Draw a cartoon animal: It's going to look like a pokemon.

@sanderev > Releasing this "game" is hurting Nintendo's sales.

Why did you put "game" in quotation marks like that?
