Raichu are great and underrated. I doubt it'll happen, but it'll be lovely to see Ash's Pikachu finally evolve.

It looks interesting enough, but I'll need to see some reviews for this first.

That 4K comment makes this rumour seem rather unbelievable.

Anyway, as I've already got a Switch, I'm not going to buy another one. I'd be surprised if any games were only released on a new Switch. It would be foolish for Nintendo to split up their userbase by making Switch Pro exclusive games.

Egg. Clearly the chicken had to come from an egg.

It looks really good, and that cape suits seems perfect for it.

That's a lot of designs. If the reviews are favourable then I could be tempted to pick this up.

Pokemon Sword/Shield was alright, but underwhelming. It just goes to show that Pokemon on the Switch was always going to sell regardless of quality.

It looks alright, but I'm not sold on it yet. It's not bad, but these trailers don't make it look like anything special either. The characters breaking the fourth wall could get annoying if they overdo it.

Perfect timing for me, as I reached the ending last night.

As for the argument on difficulty options, I'm usually in favour of them. But for games that are designed to be super tough such as this one, I think that giving an easy way out would detract from the overall experience.

HeartGold/SoulSilver are my favourites. There's so much extra things to do in it, and the Johto region and its native pokemon are lovely. Black 2/White 2 are my second favourites since they also have a lot of extra content in it. It's disappointing to see them down in 14th place. Platinum is the 3rd best one for me.

Wonderful, I'm excited to play these.

No. It's not a series that I've gotten into before, and the gameplay footage we've seen doesn't really appeal to me.

2% chance to appear in a 5-star raid is still a very low chance. I'll be on the lookout for it, but I don't expect to find one.

That looks merely alright. It does seem to be copying Pokemon a bit too much. I wish these other monster collection games would mix up the formula a bit more.

I do love the old school Tomb Raider games, but do suspect that the older PS1 era games could be tricky for new players to get into in this modern age. As I've got most of the games already on one platform or another, I'll be unlikely to grab a new collection of past games.

I think the reaction would have been much less negative if it was revealed as part of last week's presentation. But by showing off the likes of New Pokemon Snap last week and then saying that this presentation would showcase their next big major project, they gave people the wrong expectations.

That's a bit of a surprise, as 1 million seemed like such a big target. I contributed and defeated one of them, and I'm looking forward to receiving a shiny zeraora.

8/15. Some of those questions were rather sneaky.

I'm still using my old S5, which will be affected by this. Admittedly I lost interest in Go again at the start of this year, but I always seem to come back to it eventually.

I'm not sold on this DLC yet, so I may as well watch this video. What they reveal here, along with reading what others think of the expansion, could help determine whether or not I get it.

The gameplay looks fine, but I'm less keen on the main character. There's a bit too much attitude for my tastes.

Noki is my favourite there, as I'm always partial to the cute bird creatures.

This game could be great if it is it's own unique thing. I'm just worried that it'll be too similar to Pokemon.

@okimoki Thanks. You've got a wonderful profile picture as well.

That's a great price for it. Seems to be sold out for Europe now, kinda. The "English" option is sold out, but the "NON EU (export)" option is weirdly available. Don't think I'm eligible for that second option though.

Edit: Checked it again, and it worked this time.

This looks like more of the same. So those that really liked Sw/Sh are bound to enjoy this. But I don't expect it to win over many people that weren't keen on Sw/Sh.

This looks very heartwarming

I'm kinda surprised at the result. As hard as I battled for Team Ketchup, there was a lot of great Team Mayo players making the battles very difficult for me. Anyway, I'm so happy to be on the winning team.

It's arguably not worth it for me since I've already put a lot of hours into Future Tone, which contains the vast majority of Mega Mix songs and more. If this game had more new songs then I would have been tempted to get it.

As for songs, Hatsune Miku games generally have an excellent variety of different genres of songs, so there's something for anyone as long as you're okay with vocaloid songs. Some of my favourites that are in Mega Mix include This is the Happiness And Peace of Mind Committee, Rolling Girl, Dye, and Meteor.

@clvr The Mayo vs Ketchup Splatfest is happening in both America and Europe.

I dislike the taste of mayo, so I'll be fighting vigorously for Team Ketchup.Plus ketchup is great because it is the perfect sauce for fish and chips.

I'm ready to battle. I dislike mayo, so will be fighting for Team Ketchup.

For real? That's wonderful. I bought the game after the last Splatfest, so I'll be very excited to participate in this one. Also, mayonnaise is disgusting and ketchup is delicious.

I'll take this as a good opportunity to try building some more levels again. I made plenty of them on Mario Maker 1, but just never really felt like creating with this game.

I've removed my payment info from my account. If 2FA was an SMS message then I would have enabled it, but I don't want to install another app to my phone.

I do really enjoy Hatsune Miku games, but not sure that this is worth me paying full price for as I've already played most of the songs on Future Tone. Going to give the demo a try though and see what it's like.

Ditto with high stats are very useful for breeding. I'll have a go at catching some of them.

I voted for the best girl, Ribbon Girl

That date though. If they're announcing the surprise now, then surely whatever it is must be genuine, ...right?

Typical, the one Christmas where I don't get socks, and this happens.

Very unlikely to happen, but I'd love for them to announce a new Pokemon Colosseum or Pokemon Ranger game.

My guess is that the Sword/Shield details will just be unveiling the gigantamax forms that are currently unavailable.

I do love a good rhythm game, but £50 + paid DLC is a bit much for me. Maybe in a sale.

Yay, an internet distribution this time. That saves the hassle of going to GAME for a code.

Ports are fine, the more choice of games the better. However, I'm unlikely to buy them. If it's a game that I'm interested in but haven't played, then chances are it's cheaper elsewhere.

Meh, better than nothing

Too often free-to-start means that the game starts off fun, but will quickly turn into a frustrating grindfest unless you pay to speed it up. If Mario Kart Tour uses the same payment model as Animal Crossing Pocket Camp, then I'll just skip that game.

His voice sounds very different to what I remember from QI.

I'll stay cautiously pessimistic about this game until we know if it's any good. If it's free to play like with Pocket Camp, then it could quickly become a tedious grindfest.

Wario Land 4 was such a fantastic 2D platformer. It had a lot of unique levels, and cleverly laid out puzzles and secrets. Plus Wario's transformations really helped to mix the gameplay up.

I might grab Chrono Trigger and Pokemon Snap before the shop shuts down. Never really played those two before, but heard they were great.

Nice to see it doing so well. I wonder whether they can keep up the momentum, they don't have any games that'll be as popular as Zelda or Mario Odyssey arriving in the near future.
