Re: Nintendo Announces Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu! and Let’s Go Eevee! For Nintendo Switch

@Spectra @Lizuka @Switch_will_fail @MoonKnight7 @ChibiNinja @MysticX @smithpa01 @AG_Awesome and everybody else complaining about the Motion Controls:
'The practice of catching Pokémon has been changed dramatically from previous titles. Now you can use your Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Con to toss a Poké Ball at your target with one hand, either by pressing a button or flicking your wrist. With fewer buttons and intuitive action, it’s never been simpler.'

@FTL The only information we have, is the trailer and the offical Nintendo and Pokémon Company websites. It's not stated there that wild pokémon battles are missing. In the trailer however, we see a small glimpse what happens when you encounter a wild Pokémon, with the options to: get ready (so that you can throw a Pokéball), use item, runaway and help. There's also an indicator to show how many Pokéballs you have left.

On the site however, I found the following:
"The practice of catching Pokémon has been changed dramatically from previous titles. Now you can use your Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Con to toss a Poké Ball at your target with one hand, either by pressing a button or flicking your wrist.

@samuelvictor I wouldn't say that it's clearly a spinoff, really. It's just a remake with Pokémon GO intergration, which on paper sounds really good. The only difference is that there are wild Pokémon which move around freely, instead of being hidden in grass & caves, which is a nice step to new Pokémon RPG's. And that the wild Pokémon battles are missing, which is just so weird.

This all feels like a huge step back, but that's due to lack of information. I feel like there is a reason to not fight wild Pokémon, but only catch them (besides the reason it's based of GO ofcourse).

I found this on the website though:
"The practice of catching Pokémon has been changed dramatically from previous titles. Now you can use your Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Con to toss a Poké Ball at your target with one hand, either by pressing a button or flicking your wrist. With fewer buttons and intuitive action, it’s never been simpler."

I'm glad that it's not only going to be playable through motion control, but still. I feel like without it's going to be very, very boring.

Re: Reaction: What are Your Thoughts on Nintendo Switch Online?

Saego

Oh man. All these sour comments, what a great read.

As a person who doesnt use his Switch much for multiplayer, except some Splatoon 2 matches, I really don't care to pay a minimum of €4.40 (!) a year. I'm surprised to hear that cloud saving is not going to be free, but I hope that Nintendo adds a feature where you can back it up on your SD card or even HDD. But if they don't, they don't.

And yes, voice chat sucks. But luckily, I never use it and I never will. Discord is the better option. It's just sad to see the Switch, an amazing system, which doesn't even have a simple, smooth and working messaging system.

Re: The Virtual Console Isn't Coming To Switch, Nintendo Confirms

@cleveland124 Wii U is just wishfull thinking. Instead of selling their games for $60 as a defenitive edition, Nintendo will just put their games tagged as Virtual console and sell them.for 20 ~ 30. That doesn't make sense, at all.

But aside from that, not all (S)NES games are available on the mini system, just like they aren't on Virtual Console.

I get why it is nice, but it's not needed. Nintendo surely has a reason to stop with VC. There are tons of ways to play the games you missed.

Re: The Virtual Console Isn't Coming To Switch, Nintendo Confirms

I just don't understand the appeal for Virtual Console. I own a few on 3DS because of the Ambassador program, but that's it. I don't really care about this, at all.

Besides, we've got the mini consoles now. And you 'own' NES games when you have an online subscription.

I can recall that the Wii games on Wii U didn't have the Virtual Console tag on them too, but maybe I'm wrong.

@Sgt-Jack-V Everyone is entitled to have an opinion, even though people think it's wrong. There is no need for @Anti-Matter to state his opinion on every article which has something to do with age rating, but then again, it's a forum. Best thing to do is to ignore it.

However, there is no need to insult someone. Ironically, your comment will probably be removed by the mods while Anti-Matter's won't.
