To me what's killing is the competitive scene, it's just not fun anymore. 800 Pokémon? Doesn't matter only 50 are viable. And you may try to put your beloved underdog there, but the effort is absurd and you will be defeated by a pair of semi-legendary shiny.
But gets worst! After being defeated you have to wait for 3 or 4 minutes until the next battle start. Oh and of course you will loose again because you only battle 4 x 4, so when the battle start you will put half of your team in the field, and lady luck want's to screw you!
So maybe is the battle system, I don't know, since my dex is filled since the early XY days, and it was filled in SM also. The appeal to me is dying, which is very, very sad.
While I think that some people might get addicted, everything that produce pleasure may addict someone, the 3 symptoms are so generic that fail to confirm and prove anything. It's just another way to sell us more and more medicine and treatments. I'm a psychologist so take this as some kind of professional opinion.
The 3ds is in my top 3 console all time alongside with the PS2 and SNES. But the Switch may over throne PS2 and then my top 3 will be composed only by Nintendo stuff!
So good to see this, and thinking about the past with slow news, sad news and everything failing and falling. The world turns, let's hope that Nintendo and us keep rolling and turning too!
@Dom Oh it's Thomas with another hair! Welcome back Dom(as)! Is that a mega drive in your picture? Bad choice! Also 3/10 for WWE was a very fair score! Nice to meet you!
@Bentheblaze2390 But they may change the move set since Niles uses the same as Takumi/Sakura and Oboro the generic lancer. So I hope that, as paid dlc, they at least put some effort into the moveset. Also if Oboro/Azura moveset are the same, I'll be very disappointed
@HappyMaskedGuy Interesting, we share this same idea, and my Tai Chi teacher said the same. Very nice. Also thanks very much for the reading indication, I'll start today.
Xenoblade, Valkyria Chronicles, Fire Emblem, Shin Megami Tensei V. In the first two years!!!!!!!!! What the hell! Proably Switch will surpass 3ds, ds and PS1 as RPG marvelous!
Should have arrived 1 month before Mario. Now it's a little too late. Well I think I'll await for a physical version or may get in a empty month next year. (if nintendo let us have one);
To me is simple, while Fire Emblem and Metroid will be outstanding games, and all of us will buy, I still think that 2018 needs a major hit, to sell to the dumb masses. Will be Pokémon? I don't know, probably not. Will be Smash? Maybe, but only if Sakurai is already working on the game. Will be Smash4? At this point I doubt. The train has left the station for another deluxe port. And Reggie said "only one Smash per generation" so probably will be 5. Also a Pokémon Spin off may be the hit.
@Damo Yeah I have to agree. Hyrule Warriors is one of the strongest warriors, but FE is way better, simply because the gameplay is more fluid and the gameplay is so different between the characters. Also no armor is 12 out of 10.
I love the NMH and NMH2 so much, that I barely can believe that we'll finally get a sequel! Please bring Shinobu and Henry back too! It's my second most wanted Switch game next year, behind only Fire Emblem.
World may be a success, but I hight doubt that we'll reach the same highs as 4 in Japan. Than Capcom will realize their mistake and will come back. That said I'll buy World on PS4, cause looks amazing.

Re: Fire Emblem Warriors' New DLC to Blaze In Before Xmas
@Bentheblaze2390 But they may change the move set since Niles uses the same as Takumi/Sakura and Oboro the generic lancer.
So I hope that, as paid dlc, they at least put some effort into the moveset.
Also if Oboro/Azura moveset are the same, I'll be very disappointed
