Re: The Original Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Games Are Being Remade For Switch

Raccoonius

@SmaMan I like the way you think. Would absolutely love a new Colosseum or Pinball game for Switch. Pokemon Colosseum and Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness are two of my favourite GameCube games, a definite Day One buy if they came back as either remakes or a brand new one.

Pinball would be greatly appreciated. My arthritis prevents me from playing my old Gameboy Color, so I've been missing out for quite awhile now.

@gaga64 In the beginning half it doesn't feel very distinct, but I feel it comes into its own in the later half when everywhere is open to you. I felt like I was a trainer and really connected with my character in the northern parts of the region, being out in the wildness training my team.

They're all definitely formulaic, and I've done the same where I'll be playing 2-3 different Pokemon games at once in the past. It does get hard remembering what you did in which game because they're so similar, although the journal thing in DPPt is a nice little recap that helps to a degree.

I've been playing Pokemon for 20 years now and I'm still having to look at the type advantages/disadvantages too. Majority of them I can remember, but then they went and messed everything up with the addition of Fairy and changing the type of some of the little buggers. Pokeathlon was neat to a degree, but the beauty contests I can't be bothered with.

Re: There Are "No Plans" To Bring The Full Pokédex To Pokémon Sword And Shield, And Future Games Will Follow Suit

I'm in support of their decision to not have all Pokemon in Sword & Shield. There's simply too many at this point to give time and attention to, plus this let's players focus on the Pokemon for this new region instead of using their Machamp from 5 generations ago. You have the opportunity to discover new favourites and build new teams instead of just using the same ones you've been using for years, as a lot of people do through transfers.

Gonna be gaming while watching RoosterTeeth's Extra Life 2019 24-hour livestream, so not sure what exactly I'll be playing. I do know I'm going after Divine Beast Rudania later this afternoon in BOTW. Might throw in some Super Mario Party.

Think I'm also gonna mess around in Steelport in SR3 if I get the chance. I'm about 50% done the game but I'm loving every minute of it.

Re: The Outer Worlds Is Launching On Switch "Some Time" Before The End Of March 2020

Actually just beat the game a couple hours ago on PS4. While I have and had no plans to get it for Switch as the wait was too long for me, I definitely recommend it to those who are waiting for the Switch release. It's really a phenomenal game. Obsidian did a fantastic job with it. Already looking forward to my next build/playthrough. Got some backlog to take care of and some time to sink into the new CTR GP first.
