Re: Super Mega Baseball 2 Aims For A Home Run On Switch Next Week

Desa

Well, I'll be. One of my work mates keeps asking me if I have a baseball game for my switch and I didn't want to break down and buy the RBI games just yet. Most likely this will definitely be my first baseball related game on switch. Seems pretty solid if it does transition well to the console.

It's not about thinking we know better. It's about the developers taking out core assets that make the game truly what it is in favor of a literal gimmick. As you've said, there are people who are going to be okay with it, and that's fine, but that doesn't mean that those who aren't happy with the decision should sit back and say nothing at all. For one this is a forum, we can be as vocal as we wish, and on top of that, suffering in silence isn't the way to help the community grow. Having opinions isn't supposed to simply be divisive, and I don't think this is one that is controversial. Game Freak has been slowly dropping the ball for years, and it's getting worse. Once we start conforming in favor of just going with the flow, we lose our chance to make sure we get actually finished games with completed content. Our voices should matter.

@johnvboy Sometimes the fans know the core audience better than the developers. You don't always need to go so far outside of the box to find success. Just look back at all the previous mechanics that everyone loved. I can't believe that the first game on the switch wouldn't have the processing power to house all current Pokemon, but the 3ds could. I'm sure everyone would agree that the 3ds was lower tier hardware, but yet, all 800+ Pokemon was always available within the games. Sure down the line I can see there being too many, but I doubt another 50 or so Pokemon added into the game is pushing the hardware to the max. Of course fans would be mad, each Pokemon had it's place within the game. Heck, the whole literal point of the game is to catch them all! It's not an extreme reaction to feel slighted.

I can get why people would be upset over this. When you consider fan made projects that incorporated different design ideas that work for the series, it's surprising that Gamefreak would think removal of Pokemon in lay of a new gimmick was the right way to go. Keep what works and improve on what doesn't. Go over series best and reincorporate that into the game. Instead we lose some troops, and are expected to be ok with it for the new game play mechanics that probably won't be there come the next generation. I'm definitely not as hyped as I could have been. Just give me an iincreased difficulty function like random trainers with six Pokemon or something. Lol

Re: There Is "No Plan" To Bring Persona 5 Royal To Other Consoles, Atlus Reiterates

Desa

@Mgene15 I own a ps4, but no internet, and I'm not sure if I even plan on getting it soon. It's literally gathering dust since everything has to be downloaded. With my Switch I take it to work and use the wifi there for downloads. Everyone's situation is different and the obvious road isnt always straightforward when people want other avenues to open.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 4th)

Desa

I've currently restarted Pokemon Ultra Sun. When it first came out I didnt really have much interest in playing it, but I'm enjoying it a lot so far! When I go to work I usually play Mario kart with my coworkers so that too come tomorrow night. 3rd shifter here. Lol

Re: Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers Officially Confirmed For Switch

Desa

This game looks awesome. That aside, it is a shame a spin off is coming to switch and not ps5 itself, considering the core audience are those that have played persona 5 I'm sure. Its kind of like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon releasing on ps4, and not a main line title in the series.

I'd buy and play this. I will buy this. Lol Just at this point I have to decide if I'll get ps5 for my ps4 or not.

Re: Pokémon: Let's Go Sales Hit 1.5 Million In US Alone, Super Mario Party Surpasses 1 Million

Desa

I'm so happy to hear this! If only because it means we should definitely never go for want of games during the switch's lifetime.

The sad part of Wii u were the droughts and I'm already happy with what we have on switch, and the future is looking pretty darn bright with what we know to be coming in the next year alone.

Congrats on the success nintendo! Not that they dont have faults that can definitely be worked on, but overall I'm happy with my little travel companion.

Re: Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes' Physical Edition Officially Confirmed, Will Include Season Pass

Desa

@cobalt
Um, your point being what exactly? ^^; Because I don't see the problem with this for those that would be interested in a physical copy of the game.
Looking terrible and being terrible are two different things, and i didn't realize this game could be judged in its entirety yet for being a terrible experience not worthy of having these sort of viable options to all consumers.

@Cobalt
It's all opinion.
If you think the outside of the car looks good and you say so, it doesnt take away from the outside of the car, right? But you start that same car and it stutters every few blocks, it's like looking at the animations for this game. However, as everyone has already said, that can be ironed out before release.
So if they think the game looks good, I do not understand why you even have a problem with THEIR opinion.

Re: Overwatch Producer Discusses The Possibility Of Bringing The Game To Switch

Desa

The offline play argument just doesn't really make any sense to me, but if someone would like to go in more detail about it, I'd love to hear it because maybe I'm missing something in regards to why people bring it up.

You don't have to play Overwatch any differently than you would on a PS4 or your laptop. The graphical downgrades, sure, I understand those points. The offline one? I just don't get it.

Personally, I'd play a game like this docked at home or over a friends house, or even try to play it somewhere with a stable internet connection. It being on a platform like this just becomes another option for the Nintendo audience.

Re: EA Just Had A Record-Breaking Year Despite A Decline In Physical Sales

Desa

@BigKing
It was a first year switch game that wasn't on par with other systems. I'm sure it didn't sell as well as the others for having both a smaller install base than other systems at the time, and for other people similar to me unwilling to pay for a version that didn't offer what the others had.

EA isn't the only 3rd party out there. When they get on Bethesda levels of loyalty then I'll think about acknowledging EA then.

Re: Review: Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs - Royal Edition (Switch eShop)

Desa

Thank you, thank you.
I really wanted this game, but its 24.99 so I wanted to hear a second opinion first. It didn't help that there weren't too many people that seemed interested when it released. A 7 for the experience seems fine to me, so I'll eventually pick it up. Value is a huge plus, and it seems like a fun experience.
