Yeah, this definitely isn't good at all. Most Unite players have hoards of coins and always get the new Pokémon as they become available for coins. This puts unite licenses behind the battle pass and another gacha system. Not good
I tried the online demo with an open mind. I could see the vision, it's okay. Not great, not horrible, just ok. But I did get my hands and arms kinda tired after a couple rounds. This might be a skip for me, sadly
I'm looking forward to this. Edgy Pac-Man is so silly, I have to give it a try, lol. From the review I'd say it's safe to assume it's not a super long game? How many hours did you clock, Ollie?
Here's advice for those that want to 3 star everything but always hated to do it AGAIN in Mirror mode: 3 starring mirror grants the stars for regular cups as well. Thank god, I don't want to try 3 star twice in those knockout tour rallies
Yeah, I've barely played my Switch in the last month. Been busy with some PlayStation games, but it's definitely in anticipation to the Switch 2. My forever game on Switch is Pokémon Unite, and honestly I really just want to play it again on a more capable hardware.
I mean, this is such a basic feature that we've had on other consoles since over 10 years ago. This big marketing push is just too funny, but of course I'll use it. For all those saying ''just use discord", I kinda want to hear the game whilst Im playing with friends. Are you guys for real?
This is one of my biggest gripes with the Switch. By the time it released in 2017 we were all using voice chat in other other consoles since at least 2013. It's been almost 2 decades Nintendo, come on. Put a headphone jack in those controllers
We're due for some breaking Pokémon news. Legends Arceus was a high point for the series on Switch, I'm confident Z-A will deliver. Fingers crossed for a Switch 2 version/dual release!
If not this week, than surely a week after Mario Party, right?! If it goes on to November, it must be after Mario and Luigi's launch. Predictions are all over the place. The suspense is terrible... I hope it'll last
I mean, it's inevitable? AI will become more and more a standard tool in many industries. I get the criticism, really. There's a lot to improve: art theft, inaccurate information, etc. But it is here to stay.
SwSh is actually my favorite game in the series. Competitive is amazing, the new Pokémon designs were awesome, and the DLC added more than any third version ever did. Shout-out to raids, raid events and dynamax adventures. Me and my less competitive inclined friends played it for a very long time, still do

Re: Pokémon Unite Is Discontinuing Aeos Coins In Its December Game Update
Yeah, this definitely isn't good at all. Most Unite players have hoards of coins and always get the new Pokémon as they become available for coins. This puts unite licenses behind the battle pass and another gacha system. Not good

Re: Review: Shadow Labyrinth - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - Sometimes 'Good Enough' Is Just That

Re: Square Enix To Be "Aggressive In Applying" AI Going Forwards
I mean, it's inevitable? AI will become more and more a standard tool in many industries. I get the criticism, really. There's a lot to improve: art theft, inaccurate information, etc. But it is here to stay.
Re: Soapbox: Can You Really 'Spoil' A Mario Game?
I remember being upset after seeing a Cat Bowser YouTube thumbnail before playing 3D World. That design is so good and I had it spoiled

Never bought anything so fast in my life
Re: A New Limited-Time Pokémon Legends: Arceus Distribution Event Has Begun
The Gastrodon distribution for Sword and Shield is completely unrelated to the PLA mask distribution. It should've gotten its own article.

Just got Carrion, Death's Door and The Messenger. Really looking forward to playing them
Re: Feature: A Pokémon Retrospective: Generation 8 – 2019 To 2022
SwSh is actually my favorite game in the series. Competitive is amazing, the new Pokémon designs were awesome, and the DLC added more than any third version ever did. Shout-out to raids, raid events and dynamax adventures. Me and my less competitive inclined friends played it for a very long time, still do
Re: Feature: How The Quintessential Essence Of Pokémon Games Inspires Gen After Gen
Every Pokémon game is someone's first and/or favorite. The gen 4 hype last year was very heartwarming

People online are saying the dupe exploits have been patched
Re: Talking Point: How Do You Feel About Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl's Affection Rates?
I think it's fine, tbh. Cynthia was hard regardless of affection. And whenever a clutch moment happened, it was thrilling for me, not annoying.
