Re: Puzzle & Dragons X Hitting Japan This July In Two Versions

PiplupJ

I think if you're going to follow the two versions strategy then you need to do it as Fire Emblem appears to have: two games with interlocking but not identical storylines. I am a huge Pokémon fan but the only time I ever bought both versions was Diamond and Pearl whereas with Fire Emblem Fates I intend to buy all three pathways (providing Europe gets a release some day).

Re: Man-Made Pokémon Magiana is Revealed, to Star in Upcoming Movie

Joining the ranks of Ho-oh, Kecleon, Munchlax, Zororak and the Kalos starters/legends presumably. Always love the reveal of next generation Pokémon (whether I love the design or hate it). The next few months/years should an exciting time full of far flung theories and frightfully accurate predictions.

Re: Video: See the Very First Wii U & 3DS Game to Use Every Single amiibo

I don't think the article is in anyway misleading. Amiibo unlock certain features in supported games. This game unlocks a number of words from each individual amiibo. Granted the game isn't a "toybox" Disney Infinity style game but it is the first to use all of the individual amiibo, setting a foundation for a larger game in the future. This is like the wheel (granted not as useful) and now Nintendo can make the car.

Re: Fire Emblem Fates Removes 'Petting' Feature in Western Localisation

PiplupJ

How dare they! If the developers want me to pet cartoon depictions of a woman like I would the cartoon depiction of an animal, then who are the censors to deprive them and me of that basic human right! This is a direct violation of my human rights and my rights as a fan of the series. They have lost a fan here!

In all seriousness I am begging for a European release date or even just a UK price. I've been keeping the money in the bank since they announced it and I want to know if I have too much/little to make a day one purchase.

Re: Corrin Chooses to Fight in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS

Huge fan of this reveal. Gives me hope for a European release date. I know he is the sixth Fire Emblem character but at least there is some originality in his moveset (knowing the size of the Fire Emblem roster I now think Lucina should have been a Marth costume although I'd have wanted the amiibo still). Besides Super Smash Bros. is, amongst other things, an opportunity for Nintendo to advertise this franchise which is probably why he is being released before/around the release of Fates. So ultimately very happy about this, clever move by Nintendo and please can we have a European release date?

Re: Feature: A Pokémon Retrospective: Generation 4 - 2006-2010

The first main series pokémon game I bought was Pokémon Pearl. Starting with my trusty Piplup (which is currently residing with me in my Hoenn party as an Empoleon) I began a journey which I still continue to love to this day. Also have to just point out my love for serebii.net which I've used ever since I first stepped out of Twinleaf Town. Keep up the great work!
