Pokemon needs to grow up or at least have a game for grown ups. The only challange the games offer are competitive online battles between breeders. At that point just release a colosseum game with perfect stat pokemon for everyone...
The concept needs to evolve and sheed this "pure" image.
Currently, only the NES is interesting to me. I like to display my Lego, and that game stuff just doesn't look good for the price. Maybe if they sold the characters separately. There are some great Nintendo/Lego Mocs out there, but they decided to go for a nonsense board game
My god... why don't people stop daydreaming about unrealistic things? 4K on a handheld that can't do 1080p... hell, not even 720p properly?
Logical steps would be an improvement of the existing system, like higher quality build, unlocking more performance of the X1 (no 4k there) and maybe patch games to make use of more X1 power.
To advance the switch, they need to leave the tegra behind. They can't reach "mobile" high performance with a 5.5y old soc, while having good battery life and thermals.
A more premium switch model, with increased performance while still retaining all current games and maybe improved per game performance with updates.
Personal wish would be a PSVita clone switch mini with full features.
Playing it on PC rn. Controlls are epic with kb/m and it's lot's of fun. I only now have a bot of trouble with the lack of a map but i'm like at the maybe third 6-seals gate.
Best part is what is hardly mentioned in reviews: options! until now, i have 3 stages of mass and every stage has 3 different sets of abilities. Allows you to play more diverse. Also the control ability is amazing if you do it right.
People need to know that collecting can be more than just have all the games, card or coins, whatever one collects. I doubt a gaming enthusiast bought that game to preserve it for all eternity. Highly likely that it was bought as an asset, since it's something you don't have to disclose in the US tax thing (since it's a game).
That one unpopular dude that bought the rights to some meds and made em 1000x more expensive also revealed that he does this, but he invests in magic the gathering cards (reserve list cards).
Don't got the space as is, rather give me more expansions to my house, like the rooms in the basement and attic, increase my storage, which is full. Then we can talk about more collectables.
I get the need for the event items, but can i have normal ones, too? Like, the bunny balloons should also contain the recipe, leave the normal ones alone. I hardly find a normal balloon and if i do, it has a stupid recipe in it...
Nonsensical BS. One of the games with a lot of rng, personal investment and an endless timesink doesn't have a way to back up save data... Ofc, nintendo won't do much because it will definitely not hurt sales...
So big burns nintendo did with the switch for me: No Bluetooth, No backup for my most important games, no patching up some joy con functions in games for the lite (SM:O) and no TV dock function on the lite.
I doubt there's anything electronic that hasn't been in china in the last 20 years.
As for Volkswagen, i believe the factory in china makes cars for that regions marked. If i'm not wrong, the factories in germany make cars for the local/eu market.
380$? The damn Titanfall Collectors Edition was cheaper with a massive artbook and that gigantic Atlas Titan, yet they think a 23cm cheapo statue is cutting it lol. I used to buy collectors editions for games i really, really liked. But back then i payd max 150$ and got a boatload of displayable stuff and a detailed statue.
I love how 95% of all reports on the UFO call it switch like and compare it to it. Dude, ever heard of the Razer Edge Pro? A windows tablet with a nvidia GT640LE and a i7 3517U. 999USD, had a detachable controller, a extensive dock and a keyboard. Pluss hot-swapable batteries. Thing was mad.
The UFO is the second coming of that thing, but hey, "switch like" gets more clicks.
Likely this will sell for 1000usd. The i7 CPU alone are like 380-400USD for any system integrator, even dell. If they plan to go with a eGPU dock, it will cost 2000 or more.
I always thought that animal crossing would be a cool pokemon farm or daycare. Send your pokemon over so they can to villager stuff, farm fruits and collect stuff for you.
One has to be brain dead to think they can just sell pirated things in the open...
I also use emulators, but only for games i actually own and don't want to plug in my consoles for. Sometimes i'd play a game before buying, just to make sure it fits my taste. But f-me, being stupid enough to sell that stuff... lucky nintendo didn't break the man.
I always wanted pokemon to go away from this linear path of design and evolution. Alolan versions and some of the gender plus region or season versions of pokemon where a good start, but sadly to slow, to late and to much on the surface.
The Overwatch way of getting cosmetics is the only good one i've seen for cosmetic one wants to earn money from. Just let us earn the boxes for free, in a fair rate and those who don't want or can, can buy them for a fair price. No keys, no stupid fragments.
I'm a big fan of chuckle fish and gotta say, i'm disappointed that they issued an apology. Quality of your game goes over race, especially when then VA where cast based on samples alone and chosen because they fit the character.
So, lot's of reviews do say the game is fun like other pokemon games, but criticise meh graphics, cut pokedex, lacklustre content and an underwhelming experience, yet give it 8/10 or 9/10...
That's why those reviews aren't much better than random comments on trailer on YT.
First: No, just because you are any from of content creator, you shouldn't get a get-out-of-jail card. Second: As a "pro" and "influencer" and just as a human with brain, one should know that cheating is forbidden. Third: If he had any brain, he would have contacted Epic and asked for a collaboration in this, even call it education in how to spot a cheater. But no, he had to be a lil' crybaby about the fact, that he went and ruined the experience for others just to make money. Four: Stop asking for better treatment, the world is already unfair in many regards and moneysacks and influencers get away with way to much. At least leave gaming alone.
He got what he deserved, did he expect if he cries a bit he's going to get away with it? Then can't we all just cry in a video the be exempt of our wrong doings? Pls. If Epic unbans him, i hope no one keeps supporting their games.
The biggest games and probably those who would need cloudsaves the most don't support it. Just nintendo again. It's always a wanabe anti-cheat decision, that will not help anyone and only make customers angry.
That figure should be 20€ max. Reminds me a bit of that bravely default collectors edition figure. That one too had a super off face and wasn't worth the asking price.
Must be a swiss dentist. Hole in the tooth? 2000chf pls. Single tooth implant? 5000chf pls. Dentists here could ez af buy up apple with a few patients.
Rumour has it that the "Switch pro" will feature a SD 8CX due to much higher performance at the same power consumption. This rumour was backed up by the fact that nintendo was hiring programmers to create a switch emulator, so you can keep playing switch games made on tegra basis on the SD8CX.
It wasn't specified if the X1+ is getting a 25% increase in GPU or CPU performance, with the first being a bit more important. Also the biggest bottleneck for performance is the bandwith and memory speed, which causes the lags spikes in links awakening (loading stuff, not graphics), which is not adressed in just a clock boost.
How so? The switch buttons are keyed, they can't take the place of other buttons without cutting they wings of. Also, those buttons should be injection moulded, no way did they have a completely wrong designed mould and only have one switch with the wrong button out there.
I wonder what they did to replace the museum. Would be cool if you could catch fish and have them in your personal coral reef swimming around! Like, repopulate your island with bugs, flowers and fish.

Re: Alienware's Impressive Switch-Like Concept UFO Wins Best-In-Show Award
