@Greatluigi I haven't seen any downtown San Fransisco in the games at tleast.

@Pillowpants Ah, yes the failing genre of... checks notes ...live action movies. When has there ever been a good one.

@MyMemory why? It's a good thing it's not removed from the game, no?

@MyMemory do you want the item to be exclusive to GameStop? Cause I don't

@Porky it looks like at the answer to the first question is "yes" (:

@VoidofLight So you went from "go read the interviews" to "I remember hearing"...
First of all, he is not purple, it's bright pink. Second, his belt is yellow. Third, he has both yellow and brown on the sprite that could easily have been used for the color of the hair had they wanted.
It is a very much intentional decision. He also has brown hair in the manual. It's not as dark as previous, but it is brown, with Zelda being much more blonde.

@VoidofLight I find it funny how people think that the color of the protagonist in such a high profile game is somehow a "mistake"
Anyways, where did you get the idea that he was supposed to be blond when he in all accompanying media clearly had brown hair? He also cleraly had brown hair in Zelda II.

Well, word of mouth is still a powerful force.

@The-Chosen-one I'm not sure you know what an engine is or does.

@VoidofLight it's not even a date, it's a year. But I guess I should avoid Nintendo Directs the. Don't want them to spoil anything for me after all.

@VoidofLight We knew there were going to be 7 chapters, but seeing that there will be a 5th is somehow a spoiler? Interesting.

@cedarhyped wow, that's s lot of snark for someone who misses the point of my comment so badly.

The first game had depth? Wasn't it criticized exactly for lacking depth?

Yeah, I'm getting this as a launch game.

Coop was one of the main reasons this game was on my list. Hearing it is so lackluster I have to reconsider.

This looks a lot closer to Armored Core 6 than the previous game, right?

@Wilforce
"put them out on a more public platform"
Your answer is in your own comment.

@Spider-Kev Been that way for 38 years.

@JohnnyMind TPC and Creatures have admitted that Pokemon liked by the developers are somewhat prioritized for cards. For instance, there are like four cards made of Mantyke. Ever.

@Strumpan cries in Norwegian

Anyways, Bergsala is part of Thunderful now, if anyone was wondering.

@Overzeal
1. If Vietnam lower their tariffs, it doesn't mean anything for US imports. It's the US that needs to lower their.
2. He stated that tariffs AREN'T factored into the price. Which means they won't be lowered, only raised by a by changes. Unless someone puts negative tariffs on any goods for some reason.

Where I'm from games are already $100 (looking at you Monster Hunter.) The prices had to rise eventually, but I'm surprised they dared to put it at $80. I do like that it let indies be more flexible witht heir pricing though.

Insert lazy Chris Pratt joke.

People say Pokemon should rip off Palworld, but if they really want to make gangbusters money they should have a cozy sim.

@Ironcore of course you have played this one...?

It could also be that they tried something that didn't work. Happens all the time in game development.

Did they fix the side quest limit?

@GrailUK and the cost increase on components that never really came down after the pandemic.

"Almost" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that title. "One guy had a suggestion one time" would be more accurate.

@UltimateOtaku91 because the games require you to get a certain progress to unlock battle features, or to make a team. And they cost money. And they are replaced every few years, and are beholden to that games' mechanics.
There are many reasons to have a dedicated battle app - just look at Showdown.

@JohnnyMind there is new "censorship"? All I've seen are manufactured claims using alternate costumes.

People do realize this is a VGC optimized Pokémon, right? Which is why it's handed out during a tournament.

My currency is crippled either way, so it's either expensive or very expensive.

A lot of opinoins on a 10 second clip here...

@John_Deacon Hard to find current numbers, but it does better than what Link's Awakening did in the same period.

I didn't know it was the people behind LOVE, DEATH + ROBOTS. I'm actually looking forward to this now. And to whatever the Concord episode will amount to.

I mean... There were numbers listed in the original review too.

If there is one thing I learned from this comment section, it's that people overestimate how much these company cares about having the number one selling platform of all time, instead of profits right now.

Imagine being the guy who publicly announce to the world they found out this.

This game was so optimized it gave me delusions about what games could do for years later.

The gacha mechanics in XC2 is the game's biggest issue. It doesn't cost money, but it cost a lot of time.

@Dee123 if GF had that kind of power, then SV would have been delayed.

I'm assuming something to stop people from just making a bunch of accounts and trade to one to get all.

It's surprisingly well built. They thought of a lot of use cases, and no big hiccups. Let's just hope the library expands at the same pace going forward.

One of the Kit and Krysta "discussions" that haven't made it to this sites news, is that Nintendo most likely will wait until the election is over before promoting a Switch 2. Which makes sense for a company that held back the title reveal of a Zelda game because of the queen dying.

@eltomo I mean, they talk about other stuff than Nintendo. But this being a Nintendo site, I doubt you would see anything else from them on here. Of course, you could check them out for yourself.

@mariomaster96 Whaaaat? internet idiots making up stuff to get mad at? Never!

@Bunkerneath Not sure if you are joking or...?

@FishyS It worked extremely well to convey the concept of what the Switch is. So many people at the time were wondering if it even truly could be that seamless as just pulling it out of the dock to keep playing. Waiting with the longer explanation of HD rumble and infra red sensor was the right move.
However I don't expect Switch 2 to need the same thing, so I'm curious if they will.
