I wonder if they count the purchases of the Pokemon go plus + accessories towards this number.
I’ve been using Pokemon sleep daily for a year now, but I haven’t really found the microtransactions attractive in any way: as usual with non-Go Pokemon free-to-play games, the in-app purchases are expensive and provide very little value.
I don’t usually like the pixel art ones, but in this case the characters at least look like adults. The other one is like children fighting on the street (gone wrong, shocking results)
Looks like they are very fond of the Pokemon Quest art style after all.
From what I’ve heard, although they didn’t continue supporting Quest elsewhere, it seems like it is still popular and receiving new content regularly in China, so I think it makes sense for them to experiment further with the style.
“Dr. Light, I know it’s your design and my input wasn’t asked for, but does the robot child really need to look this muscular? And something looks really off with his face…”
“Hm, y-you’re r-right, I did-didn’t aesk for your input”
The moment I saw the randomly dual-tone technicolor hair and over-designed look of the main character of Engage, is when I decided I wasn’t interested in the game.
It didn’t have much to do with the gameplay, because I never bothered learning about how the game played.
It’s somewhat funny that the app that’s literally named “delta” would be unable to use the delta character in its icon, only because a bigger company likes to use it instead of “A”.

Re: Nintendo Reveals Disturbing 'Emio' Teaser, And Fans Are Baffled
I just find it funny because “Emio” sounds like baby talk for “it’s mine” in Spanish.

However I DID buy the accessory.

Re: 'The Legend Of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II' Announced For Switch
That name is like a little tongue twister.
Re: Random: Nintendo Considered Some Bananas Names For DK, Including "Kong Dong"
@BillyB maybe it’s meant to imply DK is not very bright. A bit of a multi-layered pun.
Re: Random: Nintendo Considered Some Bananas Names For DK, Including "Kong Dong"
There’s an alternate timeline where they went with Kong Dong.
The people there are super amused by the idea that Donkey Kong was considered as a name. Heh. Donkey.
Re: Random: Japan's 'KidZania' Attractions Let Kids Live Out Their Nintendo Game Dev Dreams
The one in Mexico is pretty cool. I enjoyed it as a kid, and my niece and nephew enjoy it now. There’s at least two of them in the country too.
Hopefully they’ll add this “job” to the other locations.
And yes, Mexico is in North America. Perhaps you meant to specifically say “the United States”?

Pffft the chair tower. And the ikea bag.
These are great.
Re: Feature: 25 Things You Might Have Missed In The Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom Reveal Trailer
@Ade117 they were both in Oracle of Ages, but you certainly never get to see them together.
Re: Feature: 25 Things You Might Have Missed In The Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom Reveal Trailer
There’s a goddess statue in the storage area where maybe-Impa fights with the guards; the first time they appear in a top-down Zelda game.
Since this takes place in a version of the ALttP Hyrule, they’ve basically retroactively incorporated new lore into an older version of Hyrule.
Re: Gallery: The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom Is A Glorious Mix Of Old And New
It looks like they combined links awakening with tears of the kingdom and I’m looking forward to it.
Re: Zelda-Themed 'Hyrule Edition' Nintendo Switch Lite Launches This September
I’m so getting this.
It’s like they made it for me.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Turok 2: Seeds Of Evil
I would prefer the Japanese one without the reflection on the eye. But it’s still better than the other one even with that.
Re: Surprise! Shovel Knight's Original Adventure Is Getting The Deluxe Treatment
@MH4 playing as custom knight was my favorite thing in the 3DS.
Did the home console versions not have that option?
Re: Round Up: Yacht Club Games Presents - Every Shovel Knight Switch Announcement And Much More
@GrizzledVeteran might be used to just jiggle the screen a bit to see it from different angles, or it might be compatible with VR visors.
Re: Round Up: Yacht Club Games Presents - Every Shovel Knight Switch Announcement And Much More
That definitive edition looks great! I’m glad I held off from rebuying the treasure trove or standalone edition on switch.
I wish they’d finally get around to selling the plague knight campaign as a standalone title though.
Re: Feature: 20 Great Gaming Accounts You Should Follow On Bluesky
@Lofoten I think the blue sky site/app was invite-only for a long time, so it makes sense that not a lot of people know about it.
Re: Feature: 20 Great Gaming Accounts You Should Follow On Bluesky
@SpaceboyScreams seems like you mostly want an excuse to start a very specific line of discussion here.
Re: Feature: 20 Great Gaming Accounts You Should Follow On Bluesky
@SpaceboyScreams does the discussion of sites similar to Twitter now count as hating Elon Musk…?

Re: Marvelous Provides Development Update On New Story Of Seasons Game
Looks like they might be following Harvest Moon and going the open world route as well.
Or at least it has that vibe based on the screenshots.

It’s impressive really.

Re: Resident Evil 6 Has Sold Over 1 Million Copies On Nintendo Switch
@kkslider5552000 it’s certainly not a silly happy go lucky game, but it definitely does not shy away from being funny on purpose.
Like, you can use the playground games early on in Chris’ campaign, and there’s other silly bits like that.
Re: Resident Evil 6 Has Sold Over 1 Million Copies On Nintendo Switch
The only ”over the shoulder” RE I haven’t bought on switch is 4, and it’s entirely because it’s the only one without gyro aiming.
The ports of Revelations, Revelations 2, RE 5, and RE 6 are all pretty good on Switch.
Re: Random: Nintendo Emulator 'Delta' Changes Its Logo After Heat From Adobe
@Lofoten as someone else mentioned, it’s stylized to resemble the A’s in the GBA and GC logos
But I think most people that see it will recognize it’s supposed to be the Delta character. (Not that it matters now though)

Re: Random: 3DS & Wii U Players Beat 14-Year-Old Halo 2 Server Record
I stayed on doing wonder trades in Pokemon omega ruby for like an extra hour or two, without really knowing it was supposed to be over by then.
I don’t think I would’ve had the heart to keep the 2DS turned on and online for several weeks though. The poor screens and battery.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Mario Paint (SNES)
Focusing so much on the mouse kinda makes it look more like an ad than a game box.
So America/EU wins this one for me. Easily.
I also love the fact he just has those unrealistic textured paints laying around.
Re: BlackMilk's New Range Of Zelda Clothing Drops Next Week
That shirt/robe would look a loooot cooler without the standard picture of Ganondorf on the back.
Perhaps a design based on the murals/geoglyphs would’ve been more fitting.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Pokémon Yellow Version
I’ve never liked the slightly cross-eyed pose they used in the Japanese one. The American pose looks much nicer.

Re: 3DS And Wii U Users Say Goodbye To Online Play
@Tasuki if you say that due to the discontinuation of the online service, I don’t think that’s related to accounts and content
Re: Nintendo Fans Say Goodbye To 3DS And Wii U Online Play
@BandeeOfTheStars yeah I could still trade Pokemon after the cut out, it didn’t stop working until I had to suspend the game.
Re: Nintendo Fans Say Goodbye To 3DS And Wii U Online Play
I did wonder trades until the very end, in Omega Ruby.
The final Pokemon I received was a cute little Muchlax.
