Re: "King Pokémon" Attracts The Ire Of Fans Over Comments Regarding Famous Artist's Signature

As a continually-jaded Pokemon TCG player...how is this news??! He didn't do anything to the card itself, so who cares? Any new owner could easily get it regraded if they don't like it (emphasis on 'could' due to the state of grading).

Pokemon TCG stuff really just shouldn't be reported on in this site anyway as we've seen before, so try to stay out of the lane in general, NL. @_@

Re: Nintendo Asks That You Don't Co-Stream The E3 2021 Nintendo Direct, Thanks Very Much

I like how this board assumes this applies to non-Japanese viewers, which it obviously doesn't since they haven't bothered to make an English version of the statement yet. Not that I even watch these presentations via someone else's reactions in the first place...ain't no way they'll be hyped about the exact same things I will be, and to the same extents, so why lower my overall ecstasy I get from said experience like that?

Re: Devolver Digital Is Publishing A Physical-Only Nintendo Switch Game

Also, I absolutely adore how everyone in these comment sections abhor digital versions of games (myself included tbh), but are now up at arms...over a physical-only release?! xD Come on guys...get over yourselves. This is what the publisher wanted, so you'll have to deal with it! Games didn't even have digital releases until the Wii era. Remember what gaming was like back then? Why do you want to not go back to that time so badly? O_o

@YoshiAngemon I literally joked with my friends that if they wanted to go the most boring route possible, they'd go for the most-merchandised characters first, and lo and behold, that's what actually happened. Like...what a waste of the lisence, to just make plush of the characters who probably have had more plush of them made than anyone else, when I'd buy plush of any of the new 8 in a heartbeat, especially after personally tracking them all down and inviting them to my island back when the game was new...

"But things are starting to look up"

...Are they though? They chose the 3rd most marketed character of the series to merchandise now, and one who doesn't even wear clothes, at that. This line has been a complete disappointment at this point, and this is coming from a sap who actually bought Isabelle and Nook, but I really can't see myself getting this guy...

Re: Talking Point: Do You Replay Games?

EmmatheBest

Back in the day, once in awhile. The game I probably replayed the most being Pokemon LG. But these days, when I have the means to buy any game I want easily? Yeah...no. Ain't got no time for that...

Re: Talking Point: When Was The Last Time A Game Cracked Your Top Five?

EmmatheBest

I can't even begin to think up a proper Top 5. That's just way too deep of a question for me, and there's alot of wrinkles to be had too. Like, Pokémon Emerald is pretty high up there, but...there are so many Rom Hacks based on it that are far superior to the vanilla version since then. Like, even a basic 'Full Dex In-Game' hack is technically superior to the vanilla game. PokeMMO is my favorite MMO I've ever played, and it uses Emerald as part of it's setup. I can't even begin to make a Top 5 personally due to stuff like that.

Like, even a more specific game, like Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky...there didn't use to be ANY hacks of that game to interfere with that game's potential placement, but there is now, and they have solved a couple minor grievances I had with the vanilla version.

Because hacks exist, I don't think I'll ever specifically be able to ever make a concrete list, unless I'm literally on my death bed, and only counting games I've personally played through and beat. Otherwise I wouldn't feel I've done a certain game, or hack maker, due justice.
