My old burgundy DSi XL was very sexy and elegant, and not even my PSP could dethrone it.

So it has probably seen the inside of your house.

And you, probably in... an unsavory state.

@LavenderShroud I agree. My dream Pokemon game has always been 2D, includes all monsters from all generations, and with animations in the same vein as Black/White, but made even better with animations akin to the Super Robot Wars game series and animating even things like status effects (e.g. a Pokemon actually lying down when asleep).

It'll probably never happen, but it's free to dream.

@Gryffin Since Sword/Shield, the games have dropped the ability to have all monsters from all generations in one game. This used to be the games' main draw for me and what kept me playing through the generations despite the series' shortcomings.

I understand the reasons why they've dropped this feature, but that doesn't mean I have to like it nor accept it, so off the wagon I go.

Having been on board the wagon since the first generation, I guess fans have different standards now. They lost me when I no longer couldn't "Catch 'em All." I looked forward to completing the National Dex for every generation (and successfully did), until that ended with Sword/Shield.

Still wishing for a return of the "Catch 'em All" mechanic. It doesn't have to be in another 3D game. I'll be happy with HD-2D, or even just well-animated 2D like with Black/White and their sequels.

I believe it will reach a point where actions like this would already be considered monopolizing and companies can file legal action.

As for the companies being acquired, they would need to consider if being boxed in to just one system is to their best interest. Let's be honest, Sony isn't exactly the biggest in the gaming industry right now, no matter how loudly the purists howl.

Well, if you wear a meat suit to a lion's den...

This is basically the dealer/user thing. Nintendo could go after all the users, individually checking if they actually own legal copies of the games they emulate... Or they can just go after the dealer of the drug, or in this case the one who enabled all of the users to begin with.

Amazing. Looking forward to this one, especially to see just how open its world will be.

This may just be my very first Atelier series game.

Give it its own category. Categories would be even better, to differentiate between DLC that act as full games and those that merely add content.

First I heard of this. Shame. I'm a fan of Tom Hardy's movies and would've liked to see him in the role.

Just give us a Lego Tears of the Kingdom or something of that scope, or at least fix Lego City Undercover's sub-par frame rate in handheld mode.

As with all actions, always be prepared to face the consequences. Be a pirate if you want, but don't whine when the hangman comes a-knockin'.

For those concerned about this, you may want to consider a certain communist country that uses sweatshops to manufacture the vital components of your gaming devices. What Saudi is doing is peanuts compared to that.

We live in a world now that almost always requires breaking several of the proverbial eggs for our gaming omelette.

The guy didn't just poke the bear. He spilled the bear's beer, broke its TV during football season, and made a pass at its wife.

My bet is that he'll play the poor, defenseless victim next.

As a side bet: People will actually defend the buffoon.

Looks decent, but the comic aesthetic involving slashing the frame dividers seem pointless to me, unlike in the Mega Drive game. The mechanic can be removed and the game doesn't seem like it would be affected.

Also, that video thumbnail image gives me feelings that it's AI-generated.

As long as the game keeps getting better, he can work on it forever.

Recently got Darkest Dungeon II. I've been waiting for this to come out on Switch ever since the first game became one of my Switch's top ten most played. Time to be reacquainted with Wayne June's gravelly narration.

Looks like it would be right at home as a DS game, which isn't a bad thing.

There have already been cases of people murdering their parents for likes, so sadly I'm not surprised anymore.

As opposed to Anna's more popular twin sister, Connie.

You got me at "Cthulhu-inspired Horror Exosuit."

There was a time long ago when a person could be trusted at their word alone. How has human integrity fallen so low?

Vampire Survivor to Castlevania: "When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master."

People shaking their heads at Nintendo, but maybe they were still justing hold on to hope for humanity and trusted them to be honest, and it's just people in general who suck.

Japan-only. Oh well.

It's just an Australian saying "eleven" in Spanish.

@BrazillianCara Anyone who HAS glanced at the last couple of releases won't need any explaining from me, I can assure you.

It is revealed that the mainline Pokemon series will not innovate in any major way for ten generations more.

Whoa, $100 on top of the NSO subscription? I guess I'm not the demographic for this, as much as it seems like a cool thing to have on my work desk.

I love reading the comments on articles like this and seeing all the armchair corporate anarchists crawl out of the woodwork.

I have an inkling this will end up just being a generic ninja movie to appeal to a wider audience than just the fans.

What in tarnation did I just watch?

As others have already stated, this is nothing to worry about. Nintendo has been in the business for far too long to suddenly be outmanoeuvred through shares.

@Ooyah They're either Hershey's Kisses or chocolate soft-serve.

I've always dreamed of having a clear file of my but.

Jokes aside, I want that golden tumbler.

Many people wish we were already living in a fantasy world like this, but we'll never get there if we don't start giving our children names like Kzinssie.

Seems interesting. The art style reminds me of Cassette Beasts and the battles remind me of Riviera: The Promised Land, which are both big plusses in my book.

That protagonist's name isn't going to go over well with Filipino gamers though.

Pretty sure Nintendo's lawyers already had specific patents in mind when they filed the lawsuit. These aren't just some small-time lawyers we're talking about here.

Looking at it from both sides, Palworld really needs to step away from the Pokemon connections and be its own thing for them to get out of this. Pokemon, on the other hand, should see this as an opportunity to innovate their franchise which is already beyond stale. The Legends spin-offs were a step forward, but not quite there.

The Legend of Zelda: The Lawsuit Waker.

Amazing. Grandpa would be proud.

Finally! Wasn't very keen on some of the character changes, particularly for Annette and Olrox, but I enjoyed the series nonetheless as a long-time Castlevania fan.

Hoping to see more nods to Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night.

Now use that money to make an actually good Pokemon game.

A Vita game struggling on Switch? That's not the Switch's fault. That's just shoddy porting/remastering.

"Filthy little delayses! We hates them!"

Clutter at best, garbage at worst.

Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxi. Let's go!

Call me when it can finish a Dead Cells run.

Wow, a lot of negative reactions here. My kids and I found them completely charming and even hilarious at times, but I guess gaming culture has gone full edgelord these days.

I like the premise, but not the looks.
