@Miles_Edgeworth Well the 200 pokemon will be fully added about a year after release. I would assume half in the first dlc. part and the other half in the second dlc part.
So there is some considerable time spend on developing these. At least 7 - 8 months for the first pack and a little less on the second.

@cool_boy_mew No SM and USUM were 4 times the same game with minimal additions to USUM.
Now its 2 times the same game with some real additions to the game. Of couse buying the dlc twice will result in pretty uch the same contnet twice. Still this is better than any third/fourth version beside B2W2.

What third/fourth versions were actually worth the money if you already owned the base game?
Beside B2W2 no other version was worth the asking price if you already owned the base game. Even tho they were always the best version of the game.

This dlc seems much more meatier than everything nearyl alll third/fourth version have ever offered.

This is my fav SNES game perhaps even my fav game of all time. Always wondered why it never got a rerelease on any virtual console. It is such a great game. Still treasure my copy.

This is such a typical move. Start with high prices and then reduce them after the community complains to be seen as generous. The new prices are what was most likely planned from the start.

American outrage culture is so tedious and tirring.

"A deep, immersive, problem-solving game with very little dialogue"
Was enough to figure out it would be Myst.

@SquareOneMJ Get your kid either Sword or Shield. Its a complete Pokémon game (cept for the Dexit issue). Your kid won't really care that half the pokemon are missing anyway. You and your kid will have a good time playing this together.

Lol should have read this to the very end. Just wasted 300 points cause i don't have a credit card. Well played Nintendo.

Well then treat it like doping. First offense 2 year ban. Second offense lifetime ban.

@sanderev You call that PR blah an apology?

4,2,R1 in that order.

Voted Japan because the title blocks less of the art compared to the european one.

Once i learned about the controls i had no longer any interest in the game. So i never downloaded it.

Strange. The teardown i watched showed that the controllers got the updated design. No idea if that fixes the drift but they are updated.

The EU is really bad this time. I like the japanese the best.

Without context i can totally see Nintendo not wanting to have this kind of subject in their games.
But what is the change suppose to accomplish? The end result is the same.
And i don't see any force or preasure applied on Nintendo to change it. So i would not say this is censorship. This is just them being themself. We have seen this kind of stuff from Nintendo for decades.

Out of these i owned the Transfer Pack, the Wii Wheel and the Balance Board.

The Wheel was a pretty pointless buy but the other two were great.

I found it to be a rather boring game. Played it for a bit and deleted it after a while. Not my cup of tea.

Downloaded it gave it a try and uninstalled. Felt rather bland and boring. Honestly i was surprised how boring it felt to me.

@Big_Gamer Yeah only about a third of the game was playable without the pack. In Starcraft 64 you needed the pack for the Broodwar missions and multiplayer.

What i can see is that they had to rescale the models once again for the new hardware. They already have future proof models since XY. If Creature Inc had to redo all the models again something went horribly wrong.

@Alucard83 Only two games required the expansion pack. Majora's Mask and DK 64. Two other games recommended it and those were Starcraft and Perfect Dark.
In total 73 games supported the expansion pack.

Th oldschool Gameboy one looks amazing. Would buy that if it were available. Since they are not i will try to pick up the limited Pokémon one.

Why are so many saying the Light is for casuals or kids? Or do you guys think all Handhelds are for casuals or kids?

This is perfect for me. I hoped for a handheld only version for 200€ or less with better battery life. Looks really likely that i will be getting a Switch this year.

@phartsy and noone would care if gf had not cited new gfx and animations as a reason why not all pokemon are in the game.
I even think they should reuse assets that were build for this reason like the 3d models that were created for xy.

@KBuckley27 They complain beause now the "higher quality animations" are cited as a reason for why not all Pokemon will be available in Gen 8.
I highly doubt there would be such a large outcry if all Pokemon would be in. Even the Zelda OoT trees would hardly get any notice at that point.

GF made all animations and future proof 3D models for XY as far as i know. So of course they are reusing all that work. It was planned that way.
But it seems Dynamax animations are new. So in essence the Pokemon that were cut were cut for Dynamax.

Don't Focus on the render of the console. focus on the shell. Thats the real part.
And since they build it it will fit some specific hardware. Will this be the Switch Mini noone will know for sure until it is announced. But since they say it is for the Switch Mini i would put some credebility to that.
A Switch Mini would be great for me. With a screen size around 5.5 inch it would be perfect for handheld play. And thats all i want. A new handheld. The Switch is still too expensive for the games it offers to me since i own so many on my WiiU already.
But if this is around 200€ i would get it at release.

I gues not owning a Switch made this rather uninteresting for me. I am still waiting for the one game that makes me want to buy a Switch. I am not a Mario or Smash fan and while i loved Splatoon its sequel is not enough for me to buy a new console.

Even tho the WiiU is objectively worse it stops me from buying a Switch. I already have a quite afew games that otherwise would have made me buy a Switch.

The one thing i was excited about was was the Mana collection. i would buy that if it was available on a system that i already owned. Like WiiU, 3DS or PC.

@tobibra From the linked article it sounded like it was not able to be released in the UK, Ireland, Germany, New Zealand and Australia.

So this game won't be rated in Europe due to sexual depiction of underage girls. This could easily be cosidered child pornorgraphy in some european countries then.
And europe has no problem with sex unlike america. We usually have problems with violence but even that got a lot less lately.

Nintendo is really cheap here. Just disable orb pucrhes in Belgium and be done with it. And while they are at it they could make some nice bundles that they can sell that are not connected to orbs to still make money off of Belgium players.
They want to shift blame to the Belgium goverment. It is a really s****y move by them.

I kinda enjoyed DOA the movie. More of a guilty pleasure movie since it is rather cheesy.
At least the first Mortal Kombat is not on the list. That movie was great. ut Anihalation was just soooo bad i could not even finish watching it.
Tomb raider should also not be on th slist. That wa a decent movie. Nothing special but not bad. I realyl like the reboot tho. Hope we will get more of those.

OMG that seal was amazing.

@Tsurii Yeah i was thinking the same.

Well i will be keeping an eye on it. Don't own a switch but Octopath was always a game i would have bought if i ever bought a Switch.
Will have to wait on the monitisation. I don't really need another Gacha in my life but if i would get the first story for free and then would have to unlock the remaining 2 stories with money that would be great.

Even on Steam the Full Package does not include these DLCs.

I don't get it. The Pokemon TCG is one of the big three ahead of Yu-Gi-Oh and only second to Magic the Gathering.
It offers something Magic players really want. Codes to redeem packs online in every pack. Could the online version require a facelift? Perhaps but it is not needed.
The game is far from being left behind. It is the second most suuccessful card game ever created and it does not show any sign of failing. Heck there was even a time a couple of years ago where Magic had rather big problems and Pokemon made a lot of ground on it.

@Lizuka I might be mistaken but isnt that a Mario Land theme at 0:41? It is just colored.

This is an "ü". I gift it to you so you can update the tagline.
And because i am nice i gift the complete set äöüÄÖÜ.

If the President of Nintendo already knows that they will miss the target he has to tell his shareholders. He can't go out and tell the world they are still on track.
Otherwise he would be breaking the law.
So if he says that they are still on track and can reach that goal he is telling the truth and is not saying that to appease shareholders.

The Switch is not on a SNES level yet. It might get there but it is not there yet.

@Frenean Overwatch has no Lootbox Based Progression System.
I am not a fan of cosmetic Lootboxes either but thats all they are in Overwatch.

@Moroboshi876 Well GTA V should be easily portable since there are PS3/360 versions of that game. But i agree that RDR2 would be rather unlikely.

@Aerona Because it can be fun to do something different. LAtely i have been watching some Rom Hacks of Pokemon on Twitch and having all Pokemons have random abilities and spawn locations is a nice mix up.
So as long as this stuff is not used to cheat in multiplayer i don't really care.

I did not expect this to look this good.

Offering their titles on PC would not be the worst idea ever.
But not on other consoles.

@Strife89 There is an option to download everything at once. It is a little hidden but that makes it a lot less frustrating

If you are on Android you can already play it in Europe. Download the apk and start playing. The game is so much fun.
