I like the artwork but the model looks really bad. It's so goofy, but I like that about it. It's why I picked Fuecoco too: the look on its face is the stupidest thing ever.
I just bought all of them on the 3DS store before shutdown recently. What a disappointment it'll be if they put it for free on the Switch online, unless it comes with multiplayer.
People crying about frame rates and such but none of that matters. It's a kids game, kids don't care about that. And the battles run fine, so people running in the meta couldn't care less either: the only issue there is smogon or live. The huge sales figures are a testament to this.
I'm most hopeful for a pokemon black // white // 2 remake announcement, plus a new legends arceus game to go with it. Legends Kyurem rumours have been floating around of course. But I doubt i'll be happy.
@Dringo Yeah, twenty years later Microsoft made a reasonably successful game using the brand name. If you buy a broom, and then you replace the head and the handle do you still have the same broom?
It's a shame Microsoft killed Rare. Would love to have seen what they could have come up with without the buyout. A proper sequel to Conker's Bad Fur Day would have been immense, instead we got an inferior remake.
Hopefully, we'll get to hear more about the Jurassic Park release. I really hope they have the Mega Drive games, though. As they are a league about the Nintendo ones.
@CharlieGirl Given that one can change everything about their physical appearance at the shrine of illusions for 500g (you can go there and change your face, sex, hair, and so on). There's nothing left to do apart from RP the reasons for the change
It's funny how Nintendo can publish a game like TOTK which is immense, and then allow something totally inferior like Pokemon SV to be released. Now I love SV, but compare the world to that in TOTK and it's floor grime.
In their own words, making PvE for OW2 "doesn't align with the set of values they have chosen". If they actually got back to programming instead of living up their own backsides maybe their games would stop being broken messes!
The only critic score that matters is Steam User reviews. And even then, you have to interpret them properly. If someone gives a bad review after 3,000 hours then it's probably good. Whereas overwhelmingly positive reviews from hordes of people playing something for five hours means it's probably a waste of money.
The game is so easy, I really hope they improve the multiplayer to include people other than friends. At least the map creating and sharing feature can up it a bit as you can make maps where the AI gets a huge advantage.
I preordered this, and am hyped for it. But from what I've seen the devs have completely ruined multiplayer. Without a decent online it's just going to be shelf trash because people will continue to play on the web-browser versions.
@sanguinekhajiit You're missing out. As someone who has played every game since the beginning I would say this is the best one yet. It has a lot of areas for improvement, but I think it'll form a solid base for an even better game for the next mainline release.
@Joeynator3000 I've got it on Steam, and it's a lot of fun. I got it just for the dinosaur dlc alone, but the rest of the game is fun too. The pixel art is great, the simulation is engaging and it's as cheap as chips.

Re: Nintendo Plugs Mysterious New Tera Type For Pokémon Scarlet & Violet DLC
I suspect it's like Arceus' ability: you can pick it or hold an item to pick it.
Re: Detective Pikachu Returns Comes With Exclusive Pokémon Trading Card In Japan
Nintendo is getting at least one letter of complaint if the European release doesn't come with a full art

Re: Review: Pokémon Trading Card Game - A Cracking Adaptation That Still Holds Up
Is multiplayer possible with it?
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Loading Sequence Patent Filed By Nintendo
Can they really patent formulas for calculating game physics? This seems horrific.
Re: Take-Two CEO Defends Red Dead Redemption's $50 Price Tag, Says It's "Commercially Accurate"
That's a hard pass from me.
Re: Switch Online's GBC Library Might Be Getting The Pokémon Trading Card Game Very Soon

Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Has Now Sold Over 22 Million Copies, Closing In On Gold & Silver's Sales
@Anti-Matter Looks like you're in the minority there. Hardly anybody cares about some trivial issues when it's the best Pokemon game ever.
Re: The Next Pokémon Presents Could Be Soon, According To A New Datamine
@Bizaster It's not wise to give away information that can be used to reset passwords online. Such as favourite X, birthday etc.

Re: Poll: Were You Able To Get The New Super Smash Bros. Ultimate amiibo?
What are we meant to do with a collection of plastic figures to get bonuses in games with? I'd rather just buy a dlc.
Re: New Limited-Time Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Distribution Announced
Will I be able to download it using a VPN?
Re: Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection Officially Announced
@HalBailman I'll buy it. I love JP and the money is a trivial amount for many of us.
Re: Round Up: Every Switch Game Announced At Limited Run's 2023 Showcase
Where's the Sega games for Jurassic Park? What a disappointment. Would have loved the Saturn // Playstation ones too
Re: Gallery: Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince "Sneak Peek" - Heroes, Story & World
Looks great. I hope it has more to do than just battling though. Would love dragon quest builders with these features too
Re: New Pokémon Scarlet & Violet 7-Star Tera Raid Battle Event Announced For This Weekend
Finally, was wondering when the 7 star raids would be back. Shame it's a delphox, but I'll take what I can get. Should be over in under a minute.
Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Version 1.3.2 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@Shade_Koopa It runs fine, people are crying over nothing.
Re: Limited Run Games Showcase To Feature "20+ New Digital And Physical Announcements"
Would love to see the Playstation//Saturn JP games on it too! I should be so lucky, though...
Re: Limited Run Games Showcase To Feature "20+ New Digital And Physical Announcements"

Re: Stardew Valley Creator Seemingly Teases Next Big Update
@CharlieGirl Given that one can change everything about their physical appearance at the shrine of illusions for 500g (you can go there and change your face, sex, hair, and so on). There's nothing left to do apart from RP the reasons for the change
Re: Stardew Valley Creator Seemingly Teases Next Big Update
@CharlieGirl Seeing as non-binary is an identity and not something physical can't the players just RP it after choosing their character's sex?
Re: Current Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Tera Raid Battle Events Suspended Due To Reward Bug

Re: Blizzard Cancels Overwatch 2's Long-Awaited PvE Hero Mode
"Blizzard quality" is not something to be proud of anymore. They ship trash. So it must have been REALLY bad.
Re: The Jurassic Park Games Are Getting A 30th Anniversary Retro Collection
What we really need is a modern Skyrim style RPG where you can play as Grant, Raptor or T-Rex.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp?
@Kiwi_Unlimited What do you have to press?
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp?
Considering it's missing a multiplayer and the ability to skip battle animations I'm giving it a 'good'.
The former is really problematic. Playing with verified friends only isn't a real multiplayer.
Re: Next Pokémon Scarlet & Violet 7-Star Tera Raid Battle Event Announced For This Weekend
Love the bi-weekly seven stars. Just hope they do Charizard again because I missed that one.
Re: Advance Wars Switch Dev Thanks Fans For Positive Reception, Calls Release A "Life Dream"
Great game but with 2 major issues:
1) You can't skip battle animations.
2) Multiplayer is trash.
Re: Poll: Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp Is Out Today, Will You Be Getting it?
@Kanaletto I'm so upset about the online. It's fully garbage what were they thinking!?
Re: Poll: Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp Is Out Today, Will You Be Getting it?
The game is so easy, I really hope they improve the multiplayer to include people other than friends. At least the map creating and sharing feature can up it a bit as you can make maps where the AI gets a huge advantage.
Re: Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp Physical Release Has Reversible Cover Art
@Serpenterror It says friends only. It's trash.
Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Version 1.3.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@ChromaticDracula Surprised you fall back to sun and moon. Double battles were virtually unplayable in that one due to frame rate issues.
Re: Review: Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp - A Pair Of Strategy Gems Delightfully Reimagined
You can only play online with friends? What a disappointment...
Re: New Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp Trailer Welcomes Back Orange Star
I preordered this, and am hyped for it. But from what I've seen the devs have completely ruined multiplayer. Without a decent online it's just going to be shelf trash because people will continue to play on the web-browser versions.
Re: New Pokémon Revealed For Scarlet & Violet DLC In 'Pokémon Horizons' Anime

Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Blissey Tera Raid Battle Event Returns
@JohnnyMind Haha that was a one shot with Miraidon. You all do metal sound, then charge, then thunder and the first person to hit it kills it in one
Re: Let's Build A Zoo To Open Aquarium DLC In Animal-Splicing Management Sim
@Joeynator3000 I've got it on Steam, and it's a lot of fun. I got it just for the dinosaur dlc alone, but the rest of the game is fun too. The pixel art is great, the simulation is engaging and it's as cheap as chips.
Re: New Pokémon Scarlet & Violet 7-Star Tera Raid Event Announced For This Weekend
It's getting downed by the 1-shot.
Re: Round Up: The Previews Are In For Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp
I've already pre-ordered this, can't wait. I don't see what the problem with the price is if you've got a job. It's nothing.
