As a smt fan this hurts.
Shin megami tensei has been almost exclusive to nintendo. (I'm still waiting to buy a switch, smt 5 is what 's gonna get me to buy one.)
But of course, they had to choose the popular ip. (which at the time of writing is kind of irrelevant for nintendo.)
Choose some basic features for each game , make a four page list, put a controversial title like including lets go in the same level as the other mainline titles and pick each game from photos blindfolded. There you have it, this list.
You did it nintendo life.
You got a nice controversial article and didn't disable comments in this comment section where even the fans of the game are showing more toxicity than the so called haters.
This is the last time I click a soapbox article.
@Cathousemaster as I understand, you get exp from catching pokemon and you can send "spare" or "unwanted" pokemon like on (pokemon go) to the profesor for exp too.
weren't the let's go games purpose a way to facilitate the transition to the main games for the go fans? if they have a let's go series of games running alongside main series games that would totally undermine that purpose Unless gamefreak expect those fans buying both series at the same time... Just...Just whatever, I doubt releasing pokepark wii, Mistery dungeon or pokemon conquest (awesome game btw) changed their plans too much ( MAIN series bw2 remake please happen sometime without anything removed TT_TT )
They're not developers good enough for this, or at least what the community has in their minds. And I doubt they're gonna use the excellent team at monolith.
@Nintencats73 wrong. My first game was gold. I love gen 2 yeah but my favourite will always be bw2.(gen 8 please surprise me hahaha)
I don't think gamefreak will ever be able to replicate the amount of love and fanservice those games had.
@LordGeovanni I'm in the camp that thinks that a lot of cheaters would stop if the iv system would be removed (or at least make them easy to manipulate like evs).
I like the game, I even tolerate the bike simulator, but playing with rng has never been fun.
Nonsense, federation force may not be a great metroid game but I'd play that over other m any time of the day, week month or year. Not featuring samus is miles better than featuring an abomination version of her.
Does people forget that if goku gets in then shrek gets a chance as well? Followed by cory in the house... May as well remind you guys that waluigi has more chance that goku?!
@FlashBoomerang so much yes, I was wondering why are people surprised by this when south america has had this prices (higher or lower depending the country) since launch. In my country switch costs something from $490 to $550.
You know, nintendo can't split their game library specially now that smt5, fire emblem and pokemon are confirmed for switch, games that are normally asociated with portables.
If they do a portable device it has to be a switch P or something like that.
Yeah right, remember his reasoning for not including battle frontier in oras? Hahahaha, aren't the same people he wants to unite in the pokemon core experience the same people he said that they "get bored and frustrated more easily and they aren't interested in things that are more demanding/challenging"?
Yeah, i'm just gonna wait for the mainline game. I'm not even an elitist and i'm tempted to say something like: "maybe the casuals would like this...but not me."
Wow, such an extremist community, reading some reactions here really makes me feel sick. Why do people here hate the homebrew scene so much? Were their candies "stolen"?
Everyone saying the last story. The only good thing about remaking/porting it would be the online servers alive again to play pvp, that was fun as hell.
but in all honesty I'd like a new franchise exclusive to nintendo... yeah, a man can dream! xD
@Pokefanmum82 I wanted to be surprised in 6th gen, when the promise of 3d was in full force. I won't pay 40$ to be surprised in the wrong ways right now, even more after original S&M.
items, some quests and a blade are microtransactions the last is brand new story content, which is the only thing worth. "face powerful enemies in a new challenge mode" WTH?!!! for half the price of a 100+ hours game? prfff no.
it was the same with pokemon sun and moon, everyone and their moms said that it was the best pokemon game in the universe. fastforward some months (when the "honeymoon" phase was over) and some people were already seeing flaws. some months later and there was even a "faction" realizing that for every step forward, pokemon s&m took two steps back.
come on people, stop that "bezt gAMe of alLlL timeh!!11!1" hype team, let the cooldown do its thing...
good, introduce more things to the game, maybe it will be worth the money in due time, but not yet.
This doesn't even make sense in character context, they will have to pull a very good twist (or a really bad one) to explain why those bosses are working together considering some of them have conflicting ideologies.
EDIT: AW F***, I forgot, the metagame will be total chaos, mega mom, desolate groudon and maybe landorus TT_TT
are they thinking of doing a sequel? because they ignored the most popular characters. Why focus on 3 games only? some people told me too that the game has a big bunch of clones... and according to some posts here some of this dlc characters were already in the game?
this is disgusting, if I had the money I wouldn't buy this, even when I like musou games and fe.
@Bolt_Strike you're completely right. I'm not falling for PR speak.
I don't mind pokemon games with story (Red and blue, RSE, BW2, GSC) because it is usually silly and whatnot, but when they try to get all serious and force that in your face it hurts the role playing experience and fun. (S&M I'm looking at you, I don't want to be lillie's bodyguard in her story when I wanted to be the protagonist in mine.)
people complain about garbodor, klefki, vanilluxe and others...
but no one says a thing about those Fugly ultra beasts?
I mean those two new UB monsters wouldn't look out of place in a yu gi oh card. ._______.
yeah I know, they're not "pokemon" they are "ultra beasts" * rolls eyes *
OH yeah! they bother spoiling the new games in trailers, but won't bother explaining whats new in this cash grab?
.______.
yeah I better don't get my hopes up with pokemon switch.
Gamefreak are bad ._.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE you're a pretty popular guy in this site hahaha.
the direct for me was good, I mean, Mario's nipples, doom, DQ builders, radiant historia!!! but I missed some smash and my much anticipated tales of game and SMT (5?)
I thought that we should have received some final fantasy instead of this game (which looks awesome either way) but then I remembered that final fantasy games stopped being good since the ps2 era.
was this good? was this bad? I don't clearly understand the motives behind armada's decision. is there some obligatory quota of women in gaming? do the smash comunity have to clear their name or something? shouldn't this be chosen on merit?

Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Revealed For Nintendo Switch, New Starters Shown
@Hughesy I agree, kids were able to brute force their way with an overleveled starter most of the time.
So my question is, if the games were always this easy why is gamefreak making them easier each time?
