AI and generative AI are two distinct things. Just like engines, we already can see a lot of people commenting without any knowledge about the tech in question. Sigh.
AI can be greatly used on enemies, for example. Trinagle Strategy enemies are dumb as doors and with machine learning, they can adapt with the player style of play.
Pokémon is a social experience. The ethos is to battle and trade with other people.
Because of that that I think is non-sense to compare with other series. Like, Cassete Beasts does not even have PvP and this is my greatest reason to play Pokémon.
Pokémon is too big to be considered just a "monster catching RPG".
Meh, you can practically breed the perfect Pokémon now anyways. It’s actually pretty simple.
True. And because of that that is so sad to see a lot of north-american players cheating and trying to justify using genned pokémon in official tournaments.
one of the most well-told stories in any medium from the last few years
I'm sorry, but what??? Nintendo Life do not need these sensationalist phrases.
We just have Torto Arado and La Plus Secrète Mémoire des Hommes in the last years and it is just absurd to say that this game is in the same level as those books. This is simply wrong. Just like saying that the Sun is cold.

Re: Masahiro Sakurai Plans To "Wrap Up" His YouTube Channel This Year
@KayFiOS Bravely Default II is the 3rd in the series and Stella Glow is Luminous Arc V. Names does not make sense anymore.
Plus, of course that Meteos II would be a direct sequel, otherwise we (dozen of us) riot. haha.
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Plans To "Wrap Up" His YouTube Channel This Year
In the last video he will reveal Meteos 2
Re: Mini Review: Knights Of The Rogue Dungeon (Switch) - Shallow And Fun, Like Q*Bert
@PorridgeParlour
Does this game have difficult options? It seems more common today the press playing the game in the easy and following some type of guide.
Remember that IGN review where the reviewer got caught lying about finishing the game?
Anyway, reviews today do not make sense anymore, since they know that few will read, so they are all shallow and superficial nowadays, unfortunately.

This could be very good for strategy games.

Re: Feature: A Visit To '84 Hashi', Tokyo's Secret Nintendo Staff Bar Now Open To You
@Cashews
I live in a capital in Brazil, with 2.5M inhabitants and this is not common at all. South América is too big and too different to generalize anything.
Perhaps things are different in Uruguay or Bolivia.
Re: Feature: A Visit To '84 Hashi', Tokyo's Secret Nintendo Staff Bar Now Open To You
It is not so secret anymore. Even a brazilian youtuber made a video inside the bar.
Re: Sega Reveals New Details For Shinobi, Jet Set Radio, Streets Of Rage Revivals
And here I am, waiting for The Lucky Dime Caper and Shining Force.
Re: Fighters From Smash Bros. For 3DS Were Leaked By Former NoA Employee's Child
This is way NoA sucks. This would - and never will - not happen with NCL.
Re: Super Mario Run Scores A Super Mario Bros. Wonder Event Update
@Maulbert
Super Mario Run is not an Endless runner. So it seems that you did not even play it.
Re: Poll: Rate Your Favourite Switch Games Of The Year 2023
Fire Emblem Engage for me.
It would be Advance Wars if it was a new game.
Still, I would choose Splatoon 3 this year too.
And the biggest disappointment was Atelier Ryza 3. 1 was great. 2 was ok. But this one... sigh.
Re: Spike Chunsoft's Annual Survey Wants To Know More About Your Gaming Interests
I just want that they release their games at my local eShop.
Re: Dementium: The Ward On Switch Receives Free HD Update
@AG_Awesome
Most games from this glorified rental store does not run on my operational system.
Also, if I can not download the installer and put the game on a computer without internet, what is the point?!
Re: New Pokémon Scarlet & Violet 7-Star Tera Raid Battle Event Revealed For This Weekend
@Drac_Mazoku
Yep, same.
I am releasing older legendaries and only keeping those that I legally catched or received via official means since Pokémon Emerald.
Re: New Pokémon Scarlet & Violet 7-Star Tera Raid Battle Event Revealed For This Weekend
@Bobb
Probably in 6 months.
Re: The Persona 5 Series Has Shifted Over 10 Million Copies Worldwide
Shin Megami Tensei lite.
I bought Persona 5 Royal, let us see if the game is fun.
Re: Review: Dodonpachi DaiOuJou Blissful Death Re:Incarnation (Switch) - Poetic Bullet-Hell Perfection
I hope that this get launched outside Japan.
Re: Grab A Special Gimmighoul In The Latest Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Distribution
@TheImperfectInsider
The "dedicated players" do not care. And since we can get a lot of coins through postals, this is a non-issue.
No one is being forced to buy anything. You are free to not like the game, but sure it is weird when people start making up problems.
Re: Grab A Special Gimmighoul In The Latest Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Distribution
@TheImperfectInsider
Why?
A Gholdengo with 0IVs in attack is one of most desirable (and hard) pokémon to get.
Also, 90% of north-americans players who used Gholdengo in last Worlds genned a Gholdengo with... 0IVs in attack...
Re: Talking Point: What Classic Sega Franchises Do You Want To See Rebooted?
Dragon Force, Shining Force and Alex Kidd.
I also would love Disney games that Sega did, lack The Lucky Dime Caper (Master System) and Quack Shot (Mega Drive).
Re: New Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Trailer Showcases All 96 Circuits
Well, I only hope that Wario Colosseum is avaiable at launch on Mario Kart 10 on Switch 2.
Soon we will know.
Re: Devolver's Chill Environmental Strategy Game 'Terra Nil' Blooms On Switch Next Week
This game is really cool, but unless it is compatible with a mouse, I will not buy on Switch.
Re: No Gravity Games Is Giving Away 12 Free Switch Games This Month (North America)
No, thanks.
0 games are better than X bad games.
Re: Nintendo Live 2024 Tokyo Has Been Cancelled
Please, good people. Nintendo Life is big enough to not use Google Translate and its more often than not erroneus translation.
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Is Yahoo! Japan's "Most Searched" Video Game Of 2023
@Not_Soos Yahoo is pretty popular in Japan.
The world is not only usofa.
Re: Suika Game Is The Next Free Trial For Nintendo Switch Online Users (Europe)
I have more hours in this game than in Mario Wonder, haha.
Re: Charming SRPG Wargroove 2 Lands New Update On Switch, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@XiaoShao Wargroove do not have RPG elements. And no, characters levels do not make a game a RPG.
Same way that people call roguelites roguelikes just because of the procedural maps.
Heck, Wargroove is more puzzle than tactics, since its tactics part is very very poor.
Tiny Metal 2 still is the best Famicom Wars clone.
Re: Charming SRPG Wargroove 2 Lands New Update On Switch, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Well, Wargroove is not a SRPG, instead it is a (bad) tactics game.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Football Games
If you gonna list Rocket League, so you need to list the football game from Switch Sports.
That thing is incredible fun.
Re: Xbox Reiterates Interest In Bringing Game Pass To "Every Screen" Including Nintendo Platforms
No, thanks.
The only thing that Nintendo needs is to learn how to have an online infrastructure. Nothing more, nothing less.
Re: Talking Point: Would You Like To See More Streaming Media Apps On 'Switch 2'?
No.
I want the Switch 2 to be only a gaming machine.
I think that is utterly bizarre when I see some friends with more hours in Youtube than games.

No English VA is a "Joy" for me, not a "Con".
Re: Trombone Champ's Next Update Will Bring Two Extra Songs To Switch
@IceClimbersMain This change for the whole system. I just want to change for one game.
Re: Random: Xbox Marketing Wanted To "Avoid Calling Switch A Console"
As a Nintendo player only, I do not care at all about other gaming "consoles".
Re: Best F-Zero Games Of All Time
F-Zero GX is the most loved by people who never played it. I will never understand this.
My personal favorite is X. GX is pretty, but not the best one.
Re: Trombone Champ's Next Update Will Bring Two Extra Songs To Switch
Playing with motion control is hard. I wish we could blow with "A", instead of shoulder buttons.
Re: Onimusha Looks Stunning In Netflix's First Anime Trailer
Meanwhile, me and another 4 people around the world are still waiting for a new Onimusha Tactics.
Re: Review: Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies (DS)
I have been thinking in selling my copy (good prices right now) because I miss the online aspect so much.
Still believing in a Switch 2 remake in a couple of years.
Re: Poll: What Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Wave 6 DLC Racer Are You Most Excited About?
I do not think that more characters were needed, but among those, I choose Peachette .
Re: Review: NBA 2K24 - A Step Back That Fumbles The Ball On Switch
@canaryfarmer "Brick" would be a better term, but I bet that they are waiting for Westbrick on cover, haha.
Re: Review: NBA 2K24 - A Step Back That Fumbles The Ball On Switch
@Vyacheslav333
You do not need to play the mode with microtransactions to enjoy the game.
Re: Review: NBA 2K24 - A Step Back That Fumbles The Ball On Switch
The game, overall, is very good, like the others. Only the most hardcore will miss the points listed as cons.
As I do since NBA 2K3 for GameCube, I just buy one version and it is more than enough for me.
The biggest problem is the 5Gb save game...
Re: Trombone Champ Makes Noise On Switch With Gyro Controls Today
For those who did not play, you can play with the sticks too.
Works 100% in portable mode. (If you are drift free).
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Wave 6 Brings Back Four Returning Characters This Winter
@Serpenterror Donkey Kong, yes.
Diddy Kong, no. He first appeared in DK Country.
Re: Review: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet - The Teal Mask - DLC That Offers More, But Not Enough
The only thing that matters in this DLC is the mochi that resets EVs.
Re: Stunning Zelda-Like 'Eastward' Plants New Farm-Sim DLC This Winter
All Chucklefish games seems great until you actually plays them. :/
