I wasn't under the impression that Pokémon had my wallet or interest in mind, so I don't care.
At least it's clear from the files. They could split the previous games as much as they like - they're still the same apart from the title screen and a few Pokémon.
Imagine if this was the game you lost your job for! At least wait until Breath of the Wild 2 so you have something new to enjoy during your unemployment.
@Crockin I'm guessing it's all in the update, the DLC isn't too big. And I'm sure they need the new furniture in everyone's game in case you visit someone with the new content.
I always think it's a shame when games are lost and won't be played again...but I'm not surprised.
Quite hard to sell a game when it's just Pokémon Go with another IP. Especially when Harry Potter has been ruined for so many people in the past couple of years.
If I was going to tell everyone I worked for such a big studio I would have raised the bar a little...and maybe not use the official models from another company.
But I guess he's busy working on real movies so fair enough, it's just an odd choice.
I completely understand why Kingdom Hearts 3 would need a cloud version, but didn't the other collections run on PS3? Surely the Switch could manage that!
Didn't he claim to have all of this behind the scenes info on Banana Mania? I found it concerning that he was willing to break all of those NDAs but maybe he was lying the whole time.
Was never sure if he was lying or was just a slightly weird dude....maybe both are true. Who knows?
I'll wait and see what the AC Direct is like before I consider getting these. Part of me feels like they left the game for too long.
-not that New Horizons is bad, but it was delayed and still released unfinished. Adding old features and the occasional bit of furniture hasn't really impressed me.
I'd understand if it was a new game or if it was from a small developer, but it's Sega we're talking about...with a Wii game. And then they charged extra for early access?
It isn't Cyberpunk levels of disaster but it's not impressive.
Seems a bit strange that some crossover characters are free and some aren't. I guess Morgana and Hello Kitty count as mascot characters and come with licensing fees...but it's odd.
@Friendly I'd say IV is the best introduction, but if you're talking about the Switch games then I would wait until V. Nocturne is a great game, but it's a great game from fifteen years ago.
@danemord I think they have posted one video a day since E3, so I'm confused about why they started today. -I'm trying to avoid spoilers but the demons all look so great! Especially the ones that haven't been in 3D before

Re: Here Are The Winners Of The Pokémon Super Pet Contest
All of the pets are great, leave them alone!
-and I've seen Michelle's judging before, it's pretty questionable at times.
Re: UK Charts: Shin Megami Tensei V Earns Top Ten Debut, But Animal Crossing Leads The Way For Switch
Loving SMT V but I'm suprised to see it in the charts!
...but I'm sure it will be gone next week. The UK charts always return to the same handful of games.
Re: GTA Trilogy Is Very Close To Receiving The Worst Ever Switch User Review Score On Metacritic
Is anything deserving of a score that low? I know it's a mess but I don't see why people are so invested.
-And being a hater is tiring! Just ignore it and enjoy all of the good games coming out instead
Re: Metroid Dread Had The Strongest Opening Month Of Any Metroid Game Ever In The US
I'm not really sure if the other games in the series were big competition, but it's good news!
Hopefully we see Samus more often.
Re: Here Are All The Details You Need For Pikmin Bloom's First Community Day
I know 10k isn't a lot of steps but SMT V just released.
Don't make me go out just yet!
Re: Twitch Is Now On The Nintendo Switch
Never understood the appeal of Twitch, but more streaming options can't be a bad thing
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th November (Europe)
Still curious about the DLC for SMT V, they mentioned bundles and prices for Japan and the US but not the UK.
-but the playing the game at all is quite exciting by itself!
Re: GTA Trilogy Fans Aren't Happy With Some Of The Changes In The 'Definitive' Remaster
Sometimes I miss when games where ugly and blurry. Not that this remaster is awful, but it's definitely odd...
Re: Here's How To Get Mew And Jirachi In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl
I suppose it's better than nothing?
Re: Looks Like Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl Are The Exact Same ROM
I wasn't under the impression that Pokémon had my wallet or interest in mind, so I don't care.
At least it's clear from the files. They could split the previous games as much as they like - they're still the same apart from the title screen and a few Pokémon.
Re: Poll: Are You Enjoying Animal Crossing: New Horizons Version 2.0?
I've been enjoying it, but it's a little sad that it's the final update.
Just trying to make the new content last as long as possible. The DLC can wait!
Re: Pokémon's Diamond & Pearl Remakes Aren't Out Until Nov 19th, But Some Seem To Already Be Playing Them
Imagine if this was the game you lost your job for!
At least wait until Breath of the Wild 2 so you have something new to enjoy during your unemployment.
Re: Gallery: Rococo Furniture Is Back In Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Update 2.0
@Crockin I'm guessing it's all in the update, the DLC isn't too big.
And I'm sure they need the new furniture in everyone's game in case you visit someone with the new content.
Re: Gallery: Rococo Furniture Is Back In Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Update 2.0
Rococo? More like rococ...no?
It's a bit much for me.
Re: Nintendo To Invest Huge Sums In Game Development And Online Infrastructure
Well I was hoping that they were already investing a lot into games development and online services
-we can skip the movies though, games are enough.
Re: Time Travelling Reveals New Event Coming To Animal Crossing: New Horizons This Month
I'd rather have an upgrade to the store, but sure I'll take a discount on items I already own
Re: Niantic's Pokémon GO-Style Harry Potter Mobile Game Is Being Shut Down
I always think it's a shame when games are lost and won't be played again...but I'm not surprised.
Quite hard to sell a game when it's just Pokémon Go with another IP. Especially when Harry Potter has been ruined for so many people in the past couple of years.
Re: Random: Pikmin Bloom Player Accidentally Sends Pikmin On Homeward Bound-Style Mission
Still waiting for it in the UK, I need an excuse to go for a walk anyway. The rain has made me lazier than usual.
Re: Random: Turns Out Dune's Paul Atreides Is One Of Us After All
Can't wait until I'm famous so everyone can write about how I loved a bit of Animal Crossing in the evenings.
...people doing normal things isn't news is it?
Re: Video: DreamWorks Animation Artist Releases Pokémon Halloween Short
If I was going to tell everyone I worked for such a big studio I would have raised the bar a little...and maybe not use the official models from another company.
But I guess he's busy working on real movies so fair enough, it's just an odd choice.
Re: Video: Atlus Releases New Shin Megami Tensei V 'World In Ruins' Trailer
I've seen enough, I was sold from the announcement trailer in 2017.
This is what I bought a Switch for! Can't wait
Re: Poll: N64 And Sega Genesis Nintendo Switch Online Games Launch Today - Which Will You Play First?
I could hardly justify the standard online subscription, but I hope whoever pays for it has fun!
A portable N64 is pretty great
Re: Charles Martinet Wants To Voice Mario For As Long As He Possibly Can
I'm surprised how many times he's been rehired, surely he's said everything by now?
Fully expecting a Mario version of Hatsune Miku when he eventually passes...
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons: All The Returning Special Characters
Nice to see some old faces, it's heartwarming but also reminds me that my life is quite sad and my standards are very low.
-but that's what Animal Crossing is for isn't it?
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Version 2.0 Will Be The Game's Final Major Free Update
Slightly devastated that Nook's Cranny isn't getting another upgrade. I wanted the HD Nookington's/T&T Emporium experience!
Re: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Release Date And Pricing Revealed
So I can get N64 games, Mega Drive games and a 3DS game turned into DLC?
...I know Nintendo has sold some weird things in the past but this is more confusing than anything.
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Is Adding Cooking And Crops
Is most of it from New Leaf? Yes
Did they turn a spin-off into DLC? Also yes
....but am I buying it? Probably, I want more cute furniture. Nintendo knows what they are doing
Re: 'Kingdom Hearts Integrum Masterpiece' Collection Brings The Entire Saga To Switch
I completely understand why Kingdom Hearts 3 would need a cloud version, but didn't the other collections run on PS3? Surely the Switch could manage that!
It just seems rushed
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Shiny Zacian/Zamazenta Distribution Also Headed To Japan
Just distribute them online! Even if it's through a newsletter or something.
I don't understand why we need to go to the game store for it, and I don't think the staff understand either. They're always very confused...
Re: Exclusive: Rainbow Billy: The Curse Of The Leviathan Is Out Tomorrow, Here's The Launch Trailer
Here before any comparison to Cuphead's art style. They didn't invent 1930s animation.
-but it does look interesting!
Re: Sakurai Invites Everyone To Watch Smash's Final Reveal, Whether You Play The Game Or Not
Was already losing interest in the first season pass and never returned....but hopefully the last character is a good one!
Maybe even good enough for me to pick this up again
Re: Koei Tecmo Officially Announces Atelier Sophie 2, Arriving On Switch Next February
There was an original? These games come out so fast, it makes me question their quality...
Re: Super Monkey Ball's Original Announcer Did Not Work On The New Game, According To Sega
Didn't he claim to have all of this behind the scenes info on Banana Mania? I found it concerning that he was willing to break all of those NDAs but maybe he was lying the whole time.
Was never sure if he was lying or was just a slightly weird dude....maybe both are true. Who knows?
Re: Here's Shin Megami Tensei V's First English Dub Trailer And Cast List
It sounds fine, nothing special. I know they switched production companies for SMT V and Nocturne but hopefully it's just as good as before.
Atlus usually knows what they're doing - Sega and Nintendo just need to let them do their work
Re: Modders Are Reimagining Mario Kart: Double Dash On DS
Impressive, but are we really taking old games and making them uglier?
We need MK9!
Re: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania "Would Never Have Come To Be" Without The Fans
I'm not expecting it to be as good as the originals, but it looks like they have done a great job (on a budget).
I'll be supporting it anyway - it looks fun
Re: Animal Crossing Series 5 amiibo Cards Are "Coming Soon"
I'll wait and see what the AC Direct is like before I consider getting these. Part of me feels like they left the game for too long.
-not that New Horizons is bad, but it was delayed and still released unfinished. Adding old features and the occasional bit of furniture hasn't really impressed me.
Re: Random: IKEA's Gaming Range Has The Essentials, Like A Mug Holder And Neck Pillow
Sometimes trying to look cool has the opposite effect.
Just give me something quirky and cosy!
Re: Bloodrayne 1 And 2 Are Getting "ReVamped" On Switch
They upgraded my original versions on Steam, but I'd recommend it on Switch if it's on sale.
They don't really make games like this anymore - I'd say that's a strength and a weakness.
Re: Soapbox: 4 Years On And Switch Finally Got Bluetooth Audio, So Voice Chat Next?
Gaming is my break from having to talk to people, I don't need them to integrate it into the Switch
Surely there are enough options for people to chat anyway? There's Discord and the dodgy Nintendo app among others.
Re: Sega Releases Its First Patch For Sonic Colors Ultimate On Nintendo Switch
I'd understand if it was a new game or if it was from a small developer, but it's Sega we're talking about...with a Wii game. And then they charged extra for early access?
It isn't Cyberpunk levels of disaster but it's not impressive.
Re: Random: Nintendo Fan Collects Every Game Boy Game In Just Two Years
Meanwhile I couldn't even afford the shelves he keeps the collection on
-but if you have the money then fair enough!
Re: UK Charts: WarioWare Outsells Multiplatform Newcomers To Earn Debut Number One
The top two are suprising, but I can't see them holding those spots for long.
But with WarioWare this month and Monkey Ball in October I'm happy enough. Keeps the childhood/GameCube memories alive
Re: Bayonetta's Voice Actor Isn't So Sure About Her Future In The Role
That's a shame, but from the teaser it did look like Bayonetta was a little...dead?
But it's not like she could say much anyway, I'm sure there are plenty of NDAs.
Re: Platinum Really Wants To Show You Bayonetta 3, But It Can't
I think the issue was that Nintendo announced the development to build up hype when the Switch released. But good games take time!
SMT V was in limbo for years and look at it now, basically finished and looking better than I ever expected. Hopefully Bayonetta is similar
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Will Expand Its Switch Online Service With Game Boy And Game Boy Color Titles
Can they hurry up and confirm this? My annual subscription ends soon and this is the only thing that might convince me to renew it...
The occasional bit of SNES, Tetris and Mario Kart isn't worth the price alone
Re: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania Will Have Hello Kitty Paid DLC
Seems a bit strange that some crossover characters are free and some aren't.
I guess Morgana and Hello Kitty count as mascot characters and come with licensing fees...but it's odd.
Re: Back Page: The Ten Best Holiday Locations In Video Games
Ah yes Skyrim, where there's no modern medicine and everyone looks like a science experiment gone wrong....what a holiday destination!
Re: Persona 5's Morgana Is Joining Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania
It's a shame that he's DLC, but I'd rather have Morgana than Joker at this point.
At least the party games look good! Bring on Monkey Target!!!
Re: Atlus Drops Shin Megami Tensei V "Gabriel" Trailer
@Friendly I'd say IV is the best introduction, but if you're talking about the Switch games then I would wait until V.
Nocturne is a great game, but it's a great game from fifteen years ago.
@danemord I think they have posted one video a day since E3, so I'm confused about why they started today.
-I'm trying to avoid spoilers but the demons all look so great! Especially the ones that haven't been in 3D before
