I got it and played for a while. But I suck at rogue-lite games, so I never got past the third dungeon. May well go back to it though, because even though I suck at it, it's beautifully crafted and the shopkeeping is incredibly engaging. If I ever finish the dungeons I'll look at the DLC ☺️

@Claytonbob Nope. If I give you a dog poo, and I charge someone else five pounds for a dog poo, neither of you has anything more than an absolute pile of... Dog poo. Doesn't make it any less poopy.

@Kimyonaakuma Bold of you to assume I live my life free from corruption 😂

@ALinkttPresent I respectfully disagree. We need to know he's okay 🥺 This is like calling your mum a couple times a week after you move out just to make sure everything's okay. Because we're good kids 😁

@MrGawain That's a fair point, BUT, counter argument: Tingle got his own game. If there's room enough in this universe for something so abjectly horrifying as that, I have to believe a Sheik based game isn't completely impossible. Perhaps one day the scales of justice will tip in my favour...

@Grim And I for one CANNOT WAIT.

Entry fee 4NMT, or 400,000 bells. I'll see you tomorrow Alex.

I swear this used to be a thing in one of the older games for axes anyway? But yes, fantastic idea, they should implement immediately! The number of times now I've started a big tree clearance project only for my axe to break on tree number two is annoyingly high 😂

I'm not even mad 😂 This person is a Nook in the making, and an entrepreneurial genius!

I get the icky feeling some of you guys might have towards this, BUT, imagine a world in which charities had their own Islands and you could donate to them. Imagine a Cancer Research UK island, or an RSPB island that only had bird villagers 😂

WAIT, EVEN BETTER, imagine a takeaway Island, where you could place a Dominoes order, pay for it via QR code and it comes to your actual house.

This has so much potential 😂

@NIN10DOXD So how much do you care at this moment, given that you are capable of caring less than you current do?

I ordered from Nintendo but it arrived today! S'waiting for me at home now 😁 A day early! Tidy!

Umbreo... Is that an Umbreon with a tail? 😉

KEEP GOING, ADD MORE 😁 👍 Especially the Johto starters, I miss my Chikorita 😔

Just read the update, good of them to admit fault and publicly apologise. This is going to hurt them financially, and ultimately it'll be the folks working there who had nothing to do with the leak that will suffer for it so hopefully they can get back in Nintendo's good books at some point.

This is gorgeous and I now want a full movie please and thank you.

I still shan't pick up SwSh until they announce the return of the remaining 300ish Pokémon. But I will grant them, this is a vast step in the right direction. I had completely written off Pokémon, and while this isn't enough to get me to bite I am certainly filled with hope ^_^

I'm... I'm just so disappointed right now. I didn't want Sword or Shield over dexit so unless they're doing a big U-turn on that issue I shall continue to wait for a proper full fat Direct

I've got a Switch and two Xbones. Xbones were for Destiny and Halo with my wife, plus my buddy uses one when I play fortnite on the Switch. But my Switch is my primary console, and where I do almost all of my gaming these days 😁

@sixrings
@Mgene15
Neither of you are wrong, I think. The Xbox one is a mess with loads of rubbish. But the Switch one, as much as I enjoy the clean feel, could be much much more functional. Something like the 3DS one could be utterly splendid 😊

@Kiyata ...Which corporation? 😁

@GuardTower I'm a saltnado.

Dexit is a tragedy and you should know better.

I was going to call mine "The Last Jedi" but it wasn't dead and on fire.

This is some wholesome news right here 😁

@Thorthegreat12 I'm with you man, I'm getting my hopes up stupidly high, and have no regard for the crushing disappointment I may feel afterwards 😂

I actually thought this was a really cool moment. You can be cynical about it being three dudes having a PR moment if you like, but I like to think it's a reflection of how far the hobby has come. Competition and markets aside, these three companies have helped video games transcend to an art form that you're a philistine now if you don't have some appreciation of. That's pretty insane when you think about almost every other art form being minimally hundreds of years old!

You remember when Rick made true level and Morty couldn't handle not standing on it anymore? That's what it'd be like to play on original 3DS firmware now.

The Pokémon Company fall further and further in my estimation with each passing day. S'just a greedy, heartless machine pumping out generation of nonsense after generation of nonsense in an effort to suck up parents' money and strings the older folks who love it along for the ride. Pokémon's starting to leave a bad taste in my mouth.

@Kalmaro This, so much of this.

@RupeeClock I feel silly now, didn't even think to look there! I'll go have a hunt, thank you.

@RupeeClock That's what I read somewhere too, but when I went to tell a buddy this the other day I couldn't remember where I'd seen it. Do you have a link referencing this you could throw my way? I'd be super grateful

No one deserves Pokémon, it's a product that one buys with ones money. I don't understand where this "you don't deserve it" attitude comes from, you don't earn it with your adoration or hype, and you don't not deserve it because you make your dissatisfaction with the product known. It's ridiculous.

@BENDsli 🙄 Philistines, I'm surrounded by philistines...

As Chikorita not only didn't win, but didn't even place within the grass category, I hereby declare you all to be chronically wrong and morally deficient. You can see yourselves out.

I feel like he's trying to annoy me. Like, me, personally.

@KitsuneNight @SquareOneMJ 😂 Thanks very much!

I had a birthday recently so I shall be attempting to get through some of my backlog. Fire Emblem, Spyro, Hollow Knight and Link's Awakening are all on the agenda for me

@KitsuneNight I politely reject that notion. Joy-cons are extremely easy to open up if you have the right screwdriver. The analogue sticks are easily removed, most components in a joy-con are held in with little clasps and clamps and so they're easy to take off and refit. I sell vapes for a living and they're a nightmare by comparison. I've done a lot of little solder jobs or part replacement with them and they're much much harder to work with. As for comfortable, no one's comfortable the first time they open something up. That's why I suggest diving straight in, it's an excellent skill to have and you quickly realise it's not as intimidating once you can see how everything fits together. Most of my friends have had the drifting issue, and I fix it for them in exchange for lunch or a coffee now 😄

Don't get me wrong, it's not that Nintendo should be selling faulty stuff or that they shouldn't be obligated to fix it. All I'm saying is if you're in the position where you've got drift, it's far more convenient if you can take the matter into your own hands and fix it that day, rather than ship it off and wait for a week. I certainly agree that Nintendo should be offering to do something about it free of charge though 👍

Can we play as Rohan Kishibe? No? Gutting...

I can repair joy-con drift in about fifteen minutes, maybe twenty if the metal casing on the analogue stick gives me grief. And if I couldn't do it's I'd probably just spend a tenner and get a replacement analogue stick. This is to say, try fixing it yourself folks! If you've got a natural inclination towards tinkering with things, joy-cons are actually pretty easy to take apart and put back together. Just gotta get the magical triwing screwdriver!

@Morph I believe it was Bandai Namco, if memory serves.

This is awesome news! Of all the non-Nintendo series I enjoy, Halo is up there as one of my favourites. And say what you like about 4 and 5, but those games looked amazing. This is an awesome move on Retro's part hiring this dude.

Fortunately I've been diligent in maintaining my complete Zelda Amiibo collection but this is good news for those still on the hunt. Enjoy folks!

@Spudtendo Potentially controversial opinion; I don't need new and innovative ideas for Pokémon. They don't have the timescale to really break the mould like BotW did, and it forces their hand into coming up with silly gimmicks.

What I would like is expansion and refinement of ideas that have come before. I get whiplash when they do stuff like add that awesome area specific tool for hunting Pokémon in OR and then later remove it. Competitions were awesome, can we have those back? Perhaps a system by which you could have them running in tandem to gyms, so you could choose how you progress in the game and unlock new areas? Getting rid of mega evolution in favour of Z-moves was silly. Bring back megas, they had so much more potential for expanding on the designs of old Pokémon AND making them competitively viable.

And my biggest pipedream? Sack off making new Pokémon. There's plenty to be getting on with already. Maybe a new legend or a new starter, but no one needs another gen of monsters who's names I'll never remember.

That's what I'd do anyway. Probably wreck the series, but there you go 😂

+10 points if you guys ask them if they feel like mainline Pokémon games generally would benefit from longer development cycles. I do, but I'd be curious as to their perspective on it, or rather what they'll say publicly on it.

I've been salty since the NatDex news and I can honestly say I am as salty as ever. In fact no, I'm saltier.

For the record, for people who cared, it isn't the fact that the national dex isn't in the game that has folks like myself in this perpetual state of saltiness, it is the fact that we can't play with certain Pokémon. Don't need them to appear in the Dex, we just want to play with them. I always monotype grass on my Poképlaythroughs, for example, and always with a Chikorita and a Turtwig. Probably won't be able to do that here. And even if I can, I shan't be purchasing it out of solidarity with folks who can't play with their favourites either.

Won't make a blind bit of difference, the PKMN Co. will carry on pulling this sort of thing as the series progresses I'm sure. But PKMN leaves a bad taste in my mouth now. Such a shame, as X and Y completely rejuvenated the series for me and Omega Ruby blew my socks off.

@antdickens And I for one appreciate them. They always get a chuckle, or a least a smirk from me 😂

Every person I know who downloaded this has deleted it. I didn't even bother, still playing MK8D 😂

This... This is just... I can't even...

This is the most spectacular thing I've ever witnessed.

I'm a BBNDer. I'm still f*****g p****d at this, and will not be getting these games.

@Alpha008 Don't remind me 🙄
