@Ulysses There was a bit of soul searching I had to go through before taking that single rib approach on his wings. ...Essentially I couldn't find proof in any of the official art or animation that proved he had a rib there. It's wing were always very thin and look like they folded like thick sheets of leather. ...There are Pokemon that I illustrated as you have described them, but it didn't work for what I could find on Charizard. ....It was people asking about this sort of thing that sparked me including a 'Design Notes' section on the Instagram posts to help people understand my approach.

@Rafke Heck yeah!!! ....Dugtrio might be the most evil of Gen1 Pokemon. ...When we see him, he's always in his final strokes of crawling up from Hell.

@Late Thank you! - It's so cool for NL to feature them.

@Ikana64 You're right. - The logic with the shell omission was that I had to make a choice on what to show the viewer. In the case of Blastoise it was more important that the viewer saw the inner workings.

@Finlderp You're 100% right! That Pikachu tail ended up being revised after the Detective Pikachu trailers started showing up. ...It was clear that the bone was actually more narrow. ...Those revisions show up on my YouTube feed.

@ryancraddock Ryan, I can't thank you enough for sharing these. It's really been amazing to get all this positive feedback.

I first found these on Instagram! Great stuff! Awesome to see these show up on NintendoLife. - I suggest everyone listen to Mashups while the explore the drawing. Just seems fitting.

I hope the next movie is an all new storyline. Will be pretty tuff to logic-out a talking pikachu again.

I don’t this game deserved a review. ...ugh. ...To much other stuff not getting a review that looks far more deserving.

@Roam85 Damn! The height threw me off... I was hoping it was an Easter Egg.

Is that Andy from Advance Wars?! ...Standing beside the green haired chick.

This would be an interesting studio do an article on. They really seem to consistently (and quickly) turn out good stuff.

This will be the 2nd time I’ve bought this. - Well worth it! This game is art.

Daymn... Laying the 3 down! - I appreciate that. - Please Keep The Reviews Coming!!! Or if they’re hard to write, perhaps start aggregating reviews.

I’ll be checking this out. - NL, please up the amount of reviews. It’s getting a little sparse.

I guess this means I’ll be buying this a second time. ...And it’s been totally worth it. Brilliant game.

I’m surprised to see the difficulty keep getting discussed. It’s a tough game but it’s by no means unbeatable. - ...By now I’d say at least 30% of this game’s fame is the difficulty.

I was surprised to see that this was bargain priced at about $5 here in the States. ...Planning to show it to my wife and see if she digs it too. ...Looks to be easy to get into.

How did the photographer not know this was wrong? ...Someone was being lazy and not keeping an eye on things.

The game was worthy of a physical edition from day one.

@janfritz Minish is pretty beautiful as it is... I’d see that as being a straight port, and not a remake.

Ouch! ...I appreciate an honest review.

The cartridge helps deal with the huge amount of space some of these games require. ...and It would make no sense for Nintendo to go all digital after the library of content they have on game cards.

What great developers! ...Really appreciate the checkpoint save.

More lists like this are handy!!! ...Had no idea Metroid was separate now.

@Anti-Matter Wow! I've not been a PS guy for over a decade and had no idea. ...I don't think there's ever been a better reason to continue making games on cartridges. (So the cartridge supplies the needed memory) - Thanks for the pic!

@Anti-Matter Is your comment a typo? Do PS4 games get as large as 41GB??? If so, I had no idea. That's crazy big to me.

I love FFXII... but that file size is giving me heart burn...

There goes some cash. ...loved Robotron 2084, and Smash and Gungeon. I’m all up on this.

I’ll be buying it a second time.

@Captain_Toad Seriously! ...I’m getting some old Magic The Gathering vibes from this game. It’s appealing!

What sort of numbers of fans are we talking? ...Perhaps 8 twitter accounts with 2-3 followers each? - I feel for the developers when they have to deal with blah noise like this.

I largely skipped Gen 7. ...until the Let’s Go Series came out and ended up being so much fun. - Now I may get the mainline game on 3DS just to do some catchup. — — — Does anyone think it’s possible that Gen 8 might be reminiscent of Brest Of The Wild? ...in that it could be open range? That would be amazing.

Looking through these comments you really get a feel for the divide between half-full and half-empty type people commenting. - How can you introverts not get a kick out of a digital
Concert, attended by real people, that you can participate in from your couch!? This is nuts fun! ...As a previous commentator said: This is the Squid Sisters made real! 😎

This is going to actually convince me to play this game. - ugh ...Too cool and fun to ignore. Way to go to the devs.

@Reignmaker Thanks for the insight. Sounds like a win to me. 😎 I wasn’t sure on it so it wasn’t a first day purchase, but It’s getting clear that I’ll end up giving in. ...a bonus is that there’s actually a physical copy out there too.

This is awesome! ...This will be the first game I’ve ever created a custom level for.

Ouch! ...I’m a sucker for a good logo and this has a great one. ...I appreciate you review and some saved dollars.

I’ve worked in some fun spots with toy inventing, but I imagine working at That office would be pretty great. What a cool looking spot.

@Reignmaker Glad you’re joining in. - I also have Into The Breach and loved that too. ...What did you think about Civ VI? ...I’ve yet to get it, but it looks solid.

@Mr_Pepperami Dude, jump in! Look at the love pored into this thing. - I’d be all about another AW game too, but since there’s not one... it’s great something like this (with all the care and respect that’s been put in it) finally exists! - This game feels like a WIN. ...#MGGA ...Making Games Great Again???

Can not wait!!! So excited for this. - Chucklefish does good.

I’m in! Will be a first time playing for me.

How did Enter The Gungeon not get to this first!?!? ...No matter, looks awesome and will def give this a go.

Damn... Best of luck in the new role. - I appreciate his contributions at Nintendo. The past 12 years have been bomb-dilly-O-cious.

I’ll be giving this a shot. ...Will they eventually have those high dollar music videos like League Of Legends???

Pokémon trainer: About damn time!

Eh... Minecraft? ...sigh. ...Did we cover a pseudo block builder with the addition of a Dragon Quest fighter? ...I’d much rather have a Hollow Knight in Smash. Minecraft just feels unimpressive.

I’ve never been excited to play fan-made campaigns... until this game. Can not wait!

This will be a wave similar to the LEGO movies. ...Which should work as long as the writers are good. Lots of potential withi interesting themes. ...A detective/mystery movie. An action/adventure movie. Suspense. A musical. ...These could all be great.
