Yeah I'm mostly digital now, because it's just so convenient. No more searching for my cartridges, I always have everything with me everywhere I go.
I never sell my games anyway, still own all my gb/gbc/gba/nds/3ds cartridges. I certainly don't want the option to go away but it turns out it isn't for me.
Flipside is I probably have to upgrade my 400 GB SD card to 1 or 2 TB this winter, it's almost full.
So is PvP required for story progress then?
Because I don't care for the "socialness of creature collection", I always found my trips into competitive pokémon matches more exhausting than anything else.
And the thought of making breeding more challenging aka even more time consuming doesn't sound promising either. IV-breending can be a pain if you need a specific Hidden Power for coverage etc.
Ironically I only want this to be released so we can get a remake of Dual Strike quickly after. It doesn't look like I'll get my wish anytime soon though.
If this was a regular Pokémon game I'd pick Cyndaquil because I haven't played with anything Gen2 in two decades. (I skipped the remakes) Plus Typhlosion is quite fast even though its movepool sucks and I like that for campaign.
But we know too little about this game and they seem to change up the battle system a bit so I'll wait for more info.
The List is missing Zone of the Enders: Fist of Mars as my personal secret gem, but probably too niche.
Also not a single entry of the Mega Man Battle Network series? Really? That's sad.
But as long as Advance Wars, FFTA and both Golden Sun titles are there, I won't complain too much.
I didn't like Dig at all but I liked Dig 2 a lot, so if Dig 3 improves on 2 I'm in.
Heist is also a great game but I might've overgrinded it a bit in my search for weapons and hats. Would insta-buy anyway. The plot hook was there.
If they do Quest 2 I hope It's a bit longer than the first one. It was a good game but the pacing felt way too rushed for me. Like I just met the twins and suddenly I should care about them? Give me time to get to know everyone.
The game based on the anime based on the game? Okay then.
Isn't this the show that gets mocked by the playerbase about how terrible the decks used are? Like barely coherent and not representative of the game at all. That's the only thing I heard about it.
That's a nice month.
Never played a Crash title, it was always a Playstation series for me. Might buy depending on reviews.
Minute of Islands looks cute but I heard it's somewhat dark. I'll keep an eye out for this one as well anyway.
Haven't played a Harvest Moon game since the original Game Boy title, but I remember it being simple yet relaxing and I heard good stuff about this new one. Another maybe.
Sea of Solitude I know is a good game but I'm not quite willing to pay 30€ for something I could get for 5€ on Steam tbh. DC or not. On my wishlist for a later sale you go.
@Heavyarms55 is that considered much for a deck? Coming from Magic where 3-4 digit deck prices are more or less the norm, I wonder if the Pokémon TCG might be a nice budget pickup for in between. I assume there is an eternal format with a higher price point or is everything always rotating? I know the game is big on the bling factor and limited prints but if one only cares about playing.

Re: Review: Greak: Memories of Azur - A Gorgeous Platformer Crying Out For Co-op
How does it compare to Trine 4? It seems similar, albeit more combat focused maybe.
Re: .hack//G.U. Last Recode Has Been Rated For Nintendo Switch
My only exposure to this series was .hack//SIGN, which was an amazing, albeit slow, show.
This is from the second version of The World isn't it? With Sora as lead?
Re: Raji: An Ancient Epic Enhanced Edition Coming As A Free Update To Switch
Did they fix the constant crashes the switch version had at release? That's why I dropped it after a few hours.
Re: Best Sonic Games Of All Time
My favorite Sonic game is the fighting spin-off Sonic Battle for the GBA. I loved that one.
The mainline titles never clicked for me sadly.

Re: HAL Laboratory Looking Forward To Sharing Kirby's "Next Phase" With Fans
Does this qualify as an announcement of an announcement of an announcement?
Can't wait to look forward to what I can look forward to.
Still love you Kirby!
Re: Japanese Fans Voted For Their Favourite Animal Crossing Villagers - Do You Agree With The Ranking?
Ctrl+F "Molly". No results.
Y'all have no taste.
Lolly is cute though.
Re: New Pokémon Snap Photodex / Pokédex - Pokémon List For All Monsters
I didn't know Shantae was in Pokémon Snap. Neat.

Re: Nintendo Announces Huge Multiplayer Switch Sale, Over 190 Games Discounted (Europe)
No Smash again I guess.
Might pick up Puyo Puyo Tetris 2.

The game based on the anime based on the game? Okay then.

"Great story" is all I wanted to hear tbh.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Book V Is Now Live, App Updated To Version 5.0.0
Fire Emblem has mechas now? Fascinating.
I wonder if they keep that influence for the next main entry.
Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 To Be Shown To The Public For The First Time Next Month
Spoiler question:
Didn't Joule/Lumen merge with Mytyl at the end of GV2 into a new being? Why are we dragging her virtual corpse with us again?
