@justin233 Haha just checking. Wanted to make sure you knew nothing was paid dlc.

@justin233 You'll bite on all the dlc too that's ever been released since it's all free and included lol.

@CCore28 Nope. See post below yours.

@ThanosReXXX No sir

@Pod Yeeeep

@ThanosReXXX Hahaha

@thesilverbrick Just free 1 ups I believe.

WHAT? Preorder canceled.

@Julien bows

@Rhaoulos Horse and buggy. The ultimate car demaster.

@Pod https://www.playtonicgames.com/bits-and-pieces/ Unfortunately yes it is lol. Their official article.

@Julien Another bitter comment by J on NL about YL.

@Bunkerneath Well geez...that's coming up real soon and still no preorders yet? Seeing how early they've done preorders for their other switch games, it's hard for me to believe they're keeping that release window.

Anyways, thanks for digging that up for me. Still deciding on whether or not I even want the game. Wish there was a demo.

@Freek Booooooo throws tomatos

@Bunkerneath I haven't been keeping up on that. Is there any word or updates on when it's coming out?

@thesilverbrick Yeah I don't really get it. Is that one screenshot honestly supposed to be our "first look" :/
Well they weren't lying. According to the official article, that's actually all we get lmao. Here it is for those curious. https://www.playtonicgames.com/bits-and-pieces/

That's a damn fine porting job honestly.

Any news about the dlc?

@NewAdvent Preach it Bullet King!

Seriously hackers? I'm fine when you're just screwing around with your own stuff for offline purposes. But stop forcing your crap on everyone else.

@gatorboi352 Me. Ys VIII.

The Anima Gate of Memories twitter said that the game isn't supposed to be released until the 29th. Just a heads up. Unless something changed.

@Cheez Hmm interesting numbers. I've never really looked into it before. Thanks for getting back to me with the info. Guess we'll see how the second year of Switch unfolds eh?

@Mr_Pepperami Hmm yeah I hear you there. I played better Kirby games and I'm mainly getting tennis for get togethers and such. Just like Mario Party coming later this year. I seem to be one of the few excited about that game haha.

I guess I've just been content with the ports since I've not played a good amount of them and all the third party content out and coming out has really satisfied me. Cause of that I'm not really noticing the lack of new first party stuff probably. I'm definitely really pumped for Smash though and not as pumped but excited for the new Pokemon game.

@Mr_Pepperami Thanks for the input. I'm happy with their stream of content and third party content so far. I also didn't play many of these Wii U games so the ports don't bother me as much I guess. Guess we'll see how it continues the rest of this year and going into next but I've got a lot of stuff preordered right now being a mix of first and third party so if the trend continues I'll still be happy.

And they have to run out of Wii U games that sold well at some point anyways haha.

@marnelljm No reason to get snappy and just keep saying that's a problem like I didn't read you saying "that's a problem" the first time. I'm trying to have a polite discussion over here.

As for the price issue. I agree that was a problem with Tropical Freeze. I didn't like that either. Was that just an outlier or did they do that to more of them? I don't really keep up with price comparisons.

@Cheez It's not that I don't believe you. That is interesting info. But my question still stands that do you or others think that Nintendo would have put out a bunch more games if the ports weren't there?

For instance, were they putting out more games in a shorter period of time for other consoles for like the Wii U that weren't ports in the first year?

Still don't see why people complain so much about the existence of wii u ports. 2 people have already chimed in about it in only 6 comments. And it's waaaay worse in forums and reddit. I don't really understand the logic. A lot of people didn't buy the wii u, so why wouldn't they port over a lot of the best wii u games? It's not like you have to buy them.

Is it because people think that this detracts somehow from them making new games? In all the years of xbox and ps consoles I've never seen as much complaining when they do ports as I do now with the switch.

Also would people rather not have any ports? I'm honestly confused about the whole matter. For the ones unhappy with the amount of ports coming to switch, where is a happy medium for you?

I'm pretty salty about progress or at the very least your purchases don't carry over to mobile. I mean I guess I should have expected it but it makes me mad anyways. I thought it would be as simple as logging in with your Nintendo account on mobile and syncing with their server. Either that's not the case or Nintendo just hopes people rebuy on mobile?

EDIT: Just wondering where you came up with that information if I may ask? Did that come in a press release for you guys? Cause reading through the google play listing it says although saved data is local, you can back it up on the server. This potentially means the Switch version could have the same backup function added. I'm just grasping at straws here hoping this was just your interpretation of what the store listing said. Cause I can't find anything that guarantees no transfer of anything at all.

Um...that's not Fox though. Why would they show the arwing and not put Fox in it??

@XenoShaun All very true!

@XenoShaun Capcom is getting more and more closer to becoming the next Konami with that kind of attitude. Honestly haven't been impressed by them for a long time here.

@NightBeast It's already been confirmed quite a long time ago that it's getting one. Atleast in the states. Had it preordered on Amazon for probably almost a year now haha.

So much face palm.

@MoonKnight7 Then that's definitely a real bad oversight on their part. You can do better than this Nintendo

Making the handheld mode run at 1080p makes absolutely no sense. Unless I'm forgetting something, doesn't the switch have a 720p screen? Why cap the resolution at over the screen's resolution for handheld play? I'm confused lol.

@riChchestM I did the same thing haha. I know I'll play it a ton to collect all of them and level up etc so why not. I can also agree it plays just like a non free to play game now as well.

That's a real shame about the evolving though. When did your pokemon evolve? Mine are all around lvl 10-15 right now.

I've actually been having a lot more fun with it than I thought I would. It's a nice little time waster for a free game. Though I'd much rather have it on my phone. If progress is synced, which honestly it should be, I'll be switch over to having this on my phone instead when it's out.

I recommend it to anyone that has fond memories of the original pokemon and doesn't already have a simple little time waster on their phone. Download the switch version now, see if you like it, then wait for the phone release is my suggestion.

@Supadav03 Yep. No doubt both can exist. Hell, they're doing something right cause I haven't bought a Pokemon game in almost a decade now and I'm most likely getting this haha. Game Freak is gonna just be raking in the cash with this game and the next main Pokemon game on switch it's crazy.

@HobbitGamer I'm a huge sucker for childhood nostalgia man haha. Gets me every time.

@thesilverbrick Ah mmk. Thanks for the explanation then.

@thesilverbrick Well your first comment said it would be fun for a "simpler audience" I don't consider myself simple and I'm looking forward to it haha. I play some of the hardest and grittiest games out there but also equally enjoy less hardcore games.

Implying that it could only be fun for a casual or simple minded audience is a little bit insulting.

I haven't played Pokemon since...I believe heartgold on the ds. Despite me not liking the Pokemon go styled catching mechanic I'm pretty interested in this. I don't understand why a lot of people are saying it's only for kids or casual players. I've seen that swamping the internet.

Nostalgia factor also weighs in big for me since it's the original 151 Pokemon. I grew up with that as a kid. All the newer Pokemon games don't interest me at all cause there's like what almost 1k different Pokemon now? I'm a big do and collect everything in my rpgs and that's just too much for me.

So yeah I'm probably one of the very few people who are going to buy this as an adult and play it by myself without buying the next main Pokemon game.

@Equinox Nice! You're right I just looked it up and ps4 is getting the trilogy in a physical release in July. Definitely waiting for a switch version then.

I'll get the series if an when there is a physical edition with the whole trilogy included. Or I guess I really good sale on a bundle of the trilogy on the eshop but less likely.

@Captain_Toad Been playing all weekend and I can concur with this statement. Great game.

@therealgamer *drought or *continue...pick one lol. Oh and cry more.

Dude just said "I'm a vampire!" like Nicolas Cage. I'm in haha.

When his racket breaks...he simply pulls out his lunch box.

@gortsi Someone is trying waaaay too hard
