the smash community is currently in a crappy situation, but im sure by the end of this we'll see a better and more connected smash community as a result.
as for EVO, well, that's probably dead. im gonna assume that EVO...can't really recover from this. if CEO is still gonna be a thing once offline tournaments start back up again, that'll probably take EVO's spot as THE tournament of the summer
@mesome713 nintendo has ran plenty of online tournaments for ultimate already, but they've all been mediocre at best and horrible at worst. i'm not saying that nintendo shouldn't host online tournaments, but if nintendo were to stop in-person tournaments from happening, competitive ultimate would surely die.
I also don't have an interest in Fortnite, but I definitely don't have any problems with it, unlike all of the people who hate Fortnite because it's popular. It's great to see e-Sports become more mainstream and have large prize pools. Hopefully that can extend to other games.
The Switch Lite is obviously directed towards more casual players, and it'll definitely sell well. Not the biggest fan of it personally (I already own a Switch and that's not going anywhere), but I do see the appeal of it.
I'm sorry, but is there even any room for discussion here? Game Freak's clearly using recycled animations and models, and they've been doing that since Gen 6.

@Bunkerneath If the Online Multiplayer is anything to go by, 90% of them.
Re: Pokémon GO Has Been Downloaded A Mind-Boggling One Billion Times
As a huge Pokemon fan, I'm surprised I'm not really into GO. Maybe I should try it again...

Re: 3DS YouTube Service Ends In Japan This September
Man, they should keep it up for the one person who still uses it.
Re: The Legendary Rayquaza Returns To Pokémon GO For A Limited Time
Not a GO player, but having one of the best Shiny Pokemon available to players is cool.
Re: Pokémon Duel's Game Service Will Be Terminated This October
When you have everyone playing Pokemon GO and Pokemon Masters, I guess there's not really much of a reason to keep Duel alive.
Re: Gallery: Gorge Your Face On These Images Of The First Evercade Prototype
Looks like every other portable game clone system thing on the market already. Pass.
Re: Bandai Namco Is Releasing A Free Lite Version Of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 On Switch
I wonder why they're doing this now instead of when this game wasn't almost two years old.
Re: Pokémon GO Is Teaming Up With One Piece In A Special Crossover Event Later This Month
Can't wait to see Pikachu in Jump Force or something now.
Re: Game Freak Isn't Reusing 3DS Models In Pokémon Sword and Shield
When your models and animations are being out-done by indie Chinese fan-game developers, I think there's a problem.
Re: Nintendo Switch Lite Officially Revealed, Launches This September
@gcunit Why would they announce a price cut at the same time that a new model's coming out?
Also, the Switch has sold over 35 million units so far. Why would a price cut be necessary?

Re: Nike Is Releasing Air Max Inspired By The Nintendo 64 Generation
They're pretty cool looking, but they'll probably be hella expensive, which is a shame.
Re: Is Game Freak "Recycling" 3DS Animations In Pokémon Sword And Shield On Switch?
