@GC-161 But according to these rules some pokemon do talk and through various means. Even in the main line games there are instances of pokemon talking or implied they could talk.

Here they were going for a shock value and showing the bond between Ash in pikachu.

@GC-161 I can't say I disagree with you, but it is fiction. Anything is possible if the creators want it to be. shurgs

That legitimately made my skin crawl... my body acted like it was creepy. I don't hate it because, you know, meowth. At least meowth had a character developing episode on why he could speak.

@zet I like this take

The music was quite lovely. Can't wait for this music to hit my "Slime Girls" and "Anamanaguchi" radio stations.

I should have read the article first... I started the video and was like "Ummm, I really could have used a NSFW warning."

I unfortunately can't this or Skyrim on day one, which I think is pretty important to say "We want these games!" I do plan on getting them by the end of the holidays though. It is pretty exciting.

I think I should get DOOM first since it is going to have a shorting story than Skyrim. That way I can give them my money sooner than later.

Splatoon 2 and AC:New Leaf. I won't be playing Mario until after Christmas or so more than likely. I'm never really in a rush to play the flagship series, though I do love the Mario games. I never owned either galaxy game but I did beat them both from borrowing them.

The only thing I don't like about this stage is how easy it is to be spawn camped. Aside from that I love the layout of the stage.

I'll hold off on this. It doesn't seem to do enough to set itself apart for the LoZ series. I don't want to forget I'm not playing a Zelda game (as bad as that sounds), because I doubt it will feel as good as the old Zelda games. In turn that would make me not like the game very much. Yes, my mind works in odd ways.

I saw the modern furniture. That is what I always collect, so here we go again! For my RV though. I'll do whatever the camp needs for Lobo since he was one of the first critters I ever met!

Nope, I was excited for this even with the lower specs. Not for that price though, not even the "super early bird". Disappointing.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE 30 seconds can be a lot in a fast paced game. You can win a match of rainmaker in Splatoon in about that time.

But yeah, if/when we get a longer duration the better.

Splatoon 2(splatfest) and Golf Story. Will be going to a friend's place to try out the SNES mini

The background looks Quest64 quality... no thanks

@Manjushri I don't know how true that is though, but I am too lazy to do the research required for that

@Kalmaro Yeah it is, and I'm fine with that. I'll finally have a weapon I like (I hope anyway) to use with beakons. It would be even better support if it had ink storm(already on the splat brella) or ink armor. Could you imagine if it had ink armor? No sir.

@justin233 Beakons and Bubble Blower

It is good these developers are listening to the people...
but I think people are being ridiculous. I can't stand the icons being the same as the box are. I loved the minimalist look of lego worlds, and to "fix" it they could have just slapped the logo on it somewhere. Now it is just a cramped version of the box. Let the developers be artistic people! But whatever, an icon honestly doesn't effect me in any significant way. 1st world probs I guess.

Golf Story it is. Can't wait to go on lunch break

Yo, about time. I'm excited for this game. I really liked mario golf for the gameboy color.

This is a funny way to spell bamboozler...

@SLIGEACH_EIRE A handheld is a console.

@ThatNyteDaez @GoldenGamer88 So I just watched the Splat section of the Direct again... and the only thing to get a date was Kelp Dome. They pulled a bait and switch on us with the weapon, I'm so sad.

I'm still more curious about the Grizzco thing, so it looks like I'll focus on that this weekend.

Random connection, but adding PayPal as a payment option makes sense now.

Too excited about this game! Looks to have enormous replay value too!

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Ahhhhh, I think you're right. A few more zeros before my ellipsis really would have driven my point home. I'll be more careful next time.

@Samus7Killer @SLIGEACH_EIRE It would be insane if in the direct told us Nintendo is letting Nicalis publish a Mother game. The chance of that happening though is probably 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000...% though.

So you're telling me there is a chance.

I'm not going into this with any expectations. Well, I'm trying not to. I do want to see some splatoon stuff and new information on project octopath.

@KirbyTheVampire @Mgene15 Fallout 4 would be nice. But doubtful

@Vegeta937 Depends how you control your invisibility. If my skin makes me invisible(like the photo shows) then you clothes still shows and you couldn't take anything. If I refract light and control it to make things invisible then I can wear my clothes and steal things I want and you wouldn't be able to tell(yes, I would be a villian).

Dandara and Away: Journey to the Unexpected are the most interesting to me. Floor Kids and Lost Sphear would be the next two that I'd like to get.

I read this as in the Splatnet2 servers in the title. I was about to start my day really angry! XD

I was thinking, why would they do this?!

Game has me like

Never played a FIFA game and I don't ever plan on it either. Just not a fan of sports games, I'd rather watch or actually do the sport.

I am glad for those who do like these games though, I'm surprised EA put in the effort.

Duuuuuude. Outpost looks like it will be having a lot of people down rank from profreshinal! Map looks sick though.

@thesilverbrick I don't us paypal so someone correct me if I'm worng. The advantage I see with paypal is that if you want to buy a 20 dollar game and you have 18 dollars on your account, you can just add 2 dollars to the account. With our current option you have to either add 10(is that an option?) or 20.

Also, can you refund your money from paypal BACK to a bank account?

edit

Just sitting here waiting for the bamboozler.
I really do like the mobility for the squiffer and the bamboozler. That and the quick charge time is worth the shorter distance, which should be great for these new maps.
I wonder if they have a short charge hold time.
Edit: Basically any niche weapon in this game I will use, they are always so much fun.

Three CoD games in the top 20. Those aren't even the only FPS games or even shooters in general. As an US citizen I think we need to grow a few more taste buds for games. :/

@roadrunner343 The difference is the amount of times you hit different buttons on the right joycon than the left. Yes, I agree it is still doable but it is a whole lot less doable.

@aaronsullivan I prefer to think of it like it would need a wide open taco shell the can rest in your hand that the joycons attach inside of. Right on left and left in right. would be super bulky though :/

This is a great option if you can only use your left hand; however, if all you can use is your right then this method will be impossible to use. No way a thumb can be used to press all the buttons on the right joycon.
This person will need to make a version where the joycons can be on reverse sides of this.

@GrailUK I can understand that, but for me it makes my eyes want to vomit. I equate it to that thing you ate once and made you sick and then if you smell anything like it you start to get sick. So yeah, I couldn't get over this style if I wanted to.
The only time I noticed it never bothering me is with MapleStory when I gave it a try. Even then I only tried that game for a hot minute because I could play it for free.

@GrailUK "web browser animation"

The very first thing that popped into my.

This game is made to feed on players nostalgia, and to be fair the bugs were there in the old games which always got a laugh out of me. So bugs are put of the nostalgia I guess.

Plus, if I can forgive BOTW for making a guardian glitch and fall through the floor using a bomb then I can forgive SM for a few bugs.

I really need this coming into work this morning, because I'm soaked!
I'm almost done with the splat brella in story mode, so I'll be ready to show it off when this actually drops!

@ThatNyteDaez I don't know, I think the dualies (and any rapid shooter but not as much) will handle the brella just fine but definitely not counter. As long as you keep shooting(in bursts depending on ink consumption) and strafing they'll have to drop the shield to shoot eventually or the shield will just pop off and they'll be wide open. You can't turn super fast so the dualies can just jump behind your defenses if done correctly. That all being easier said than done.

I think sloshers will have an advantage over the brella, but not to the extent of blasters.

I think the brella will be best for approaching chargers that can be reached.

@NintendoPete
"Stealth Jump - Hides your super jump landing point from DISTANT players; though those up close can still see it."

It is in the description of the ability. Super easy to read over though. I missed it too until I watched a breakdown video of the abilities done by a youtuber. I don't use stealth jump though, so it doesn't matter that I misread the description originally! XD

@NintendoPete Only enemies at a distance can't see where you are jumping when using stealth jump, but if they are close to where you are super jumping then they can still see it unfortunately.

@Steve_Bowling
"Respawn Punisher - Increases respawn time and special gauge penalty for both you and anybody who splats you."

I'm 99.9% sure of this and correct me if I'm wrong anybody, but the in game description of this ability is wrong in English. It increases respawn time and special gauge penalty for both you and anyone YOU splat.

@Bunkerneath I almost didn't watch the trailer because I thought the same thing, but now it has my interest.

My only fear is it looks like it is trying to do too much and might not be that great at anything it does. We'll see.

Can't wait for Friday. The original had one of my favorite final bosses, so I can't wait to see how this single player ends.
