Has anyone had their preorder cancelled? My Pokemon Center preorder was cancelled even though I preordered back when it first went on sale and they had already charged me for it. So I think I will be waiting on this game for awhile.
I got the mobile version and am liking it. I was able to do three sets of puzzles today and had a lil bit of difficulty with it. The plushes are so cute though. Not sure if I will get the DLC but I’m enjoying it.
I got the Switch 1 version preordered through both Pokémon Center Canada and Amazon, just in case the price goes up like it’s supposed to for Switch games in Canada (Amazon has a lowest price guarantee for preorders).I’m excited for the Pokémon plush I can get with the preorder.
Dragon Quest and the Pokemon DLC for me. My dad is coming down in 9 days so we will be getting money for birthdays and christmas. Haven't seen him in a year so really excited to spend the day with him and his wife.
Playing Wonder, Sonic Superstars and ACNH this weekend. My daughter, my youngest and I will be playing Wonder together. Might even do some Pokemon Violet too
still playing ACNH. started a Halloween spooky forest theme island so I will be working on that. Might even get into some Violet so I can do the Clefairy outbreaks to try and get a shiny. Also might try some of the demos I downloaded like Silent Hope, new DQ game and Star Ocean Second Story R.
Haven’t gotten it yet and probably won’t for awhile. Money is tight. Plus my kids want it too. Maybe next month for my birthday or I might wait until The Indigo Disk comes out.
I still play this game religiously since it came out. It is actually pretty much the only game that I play nowadays. I'm quite happy with it and love all the villagers & gameplay. It helped my mental health big time and I will always be grateful to this game for that, even if it doesn't have all the stuff previous games have. Being able to change the island to the way I want it is amazing. And for bringing me into an awesome community on Youtube where I have made friends. Animal Crossing will always be my game and I can't wait for the next entry in this beautiful series.
Mine were the Pokémon and Disney ones? Even had the AC ones and Kirby too. I honestly can’t remember all the ones I have. My kids took over my 3DSes and I only play my Switch now.
My favourite one is the Violet and Scarlet. I love the back of the switch the most. I also own the Sword/Shield lite. Purple is my favourite colour so that's why Violet & Scarlet is my main one that I use.
Animal Crossing and Pokémon are the ones I keep returning to. Pokémon, it’s always a different version. With AC it was New Leaf and now New Horizons which was such a comfort to me during the pandemic.
Playing ACNH and Pokémon Violet. Finally beat the Elite 4 and champions & some aftergame stuff. Now just have to finish the rest. Am restarting my ACNH island in the New Year. Might also add in some Harvestella too. My New Year Resolution when it comes to games is to branch out more. I play AC all the time and want to start playing other games.
Playing Pokemon Violet. Still have to beat the elite four, playing ACNH started a new island on the southern hemi. Might also buy some games through the eShop but I'm not sure yet. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day with the fam. Promised the kids we would do a movie marathon and have to help make dinner so not sure how much playing I will do tomorrow. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone.
I don't care if Pokemon Violet/Scarlet aren't the best games because of the glitches for a lot of people. I get it trust me but for me they were my game of the year. They were the only games to get me to put down ACNH for a bit. I get that a lot of people aren't happy with them but for me they were loads of fun that I didn't want to end. I love the tera raid style and love the new Pokemon. I can't wait to try my hand at the Cinderace tera raid coming at the end of this month. Kirby also makes it to the top of my list too. My youngest misplaced the game card so I haven't played it as much as I'd like.
still playing through Pokemon Violet. Haven't beaten the main storyline yet. Playing a lil bit of ACNH and might start Harvestella. I just bought that physically with birthday money from my dad who came down yesterday from the States.
Still playing Pokemon although now I'm playing through Scarlet. Have beat all the gyms, just have to beat the two Team Star bosses and one more Titan, then I can take on the Elite Four. Doing alot of Tera Raid battles and having a blast. Also playing ACNH still. Might also play some DDV and Dragon Quest 11? We recently got a XBox with game pass so downloaded a bunch of games for that.
I gave it an 8 because I'm enjoying the heck out of the game. Love the open world, love having choices on what to do, love some of the new Pokémon (ex the dolphin, the puppy and some other cute ones), love the Tera Raid battles, love the storyline & characters. I don't like the lack of clothing options. I get why people don't like it because of the performance issues but I haven't really experienced a lot of them. I am playing on an OLED though so maybe that's why. Plus, my kids are enjoying the game even though they have encountered more glitches than I have. They are enjoying it so much that they've almost beat the game.
Pokemon Violet. The performance issues aren't that bad for me so far and when I'm not playing that I will be restarting my island in ACNH. Have to share a game cart (Violet) with my son so I can't play it all weekend. Definitely having a lot of fun playing the game and exploring the world.
Pokémon Scarlet/Violet double pack physically. I don't care about performance issues. I just want to play the game. I need a reason to be happy right now and Pokémon always makes me happy.
Sprigatito is my choice. I don't know what the final evos look like and don't want to know. I like having some surprises in store for myself, so I haven't been looking at leaks.
I've put more time into New Horizons, been playing since launch. But New Leaf had just a little bit more to do in game than New Horizons. I can't really pick a favourite out of the two because there are different things about them that, for me, make them the better game. I like been able to change the terrain of the island in New Horizons, but I miss the minigames that were in New Leaf and the little trailer park that was added in the Welcome Amiibo update. Yes, they added the furniture that you could get on Tortimer's Island but the minigames were fun and I liked that you could farm beetles on that island to get lots of bells. I just hope in the next AC that they bring back the minigames. I missed those so much.
I’m excited for it. I hope we get new information about the starters, more details on the three different paths and maybe a new Pokémon or two lol I’d be happy with anything really. I’m so hyped for these games. Also trying to avoid too many spoilers. I hate that the game has essentially leaked. I honestly miss the days when leaks weren’t a thing. I want a little mystery going into a game.
I've been playing it since day 1, have taken some small breaks now & then. I am getting burnout though since I watch a lot of youtubers who play this game and I judge myself on not being as creative as some of them. But it's a great game to play just to chill out and destress. Once the new Pokemon games come out I will probably put this game on the backburner. I love that they add the DLC and all those new items to the game though.
want to get the physical version of Harvestella but I'm going to have to wait on that since I just bought the Pokemon OLED. And maybe down the line get Doraemon Story of Seasons.
Can't wait to play this game. It's not going to be a day one purchase just because I'm buying the new OLED, coming out the same day but hopefully when my dad comes down for my birthday, I can get this game then.
