Ha ha there's bidding wars on the AC Reddit trade boards whenever someone offers to sell real AND fake goods. Who's winning: Nintendo since you have to pay for their online service to visit other players.
I'm definitely getting my money's worth with all of the collecting. Maybe in a few months I'll be doing less of the tasks but I know I'll check in regularly for the latest stuff to collect/catch.
i really want to get this but the big error on the version released at launch is forcing me to wait. even worse i might have to go the ps4 route if there’s no word on the switch update .
Catching only the cheap fishes and insects gets just as annoying as catching eggs. The game is just begging you to time travel now if making bells becomes a chore.
I hope someday Nintendo masters online gaming and we can have a version of Animal Crossing that's server-based. No duping...easier to catch cheaters and definitely no more time traveling. This should happen around... 2030.
Really exciting stuff but what if a lot of it was stuff they tried out but decided not to use at all? Most Nintendo AAA games are fully cooked on release. Or maybe they’re approaching it like Splatoon 2–that game had a pretty awesome timetable of gradual releases (arenas, gear) before maxing out.
Years from now they should make this game internet only with saves on the server side--no more time travel, obvious duping and multiplayer should be flawless. Come on Nintendo, catch up with everyone else with online play!
Ugh..I'm looking forward to a time when Nintendo runs out of older titles from the 3DS/Wii/Wii U to put on the Switch and focus on new ones....and $60 is definitely way too much for that game. With that price you can get a new Switch game with more depth or a new game on another system with much more production work put into it.
So excited for this and literally counting down the hours until it starts. Dragalia players like myself have been waiting for months since it was hinted at. My only disappointment is that there are no special characters we can summon during the event. Check out the new artwork they created for the event. The game developer has a big art staff and it shows in what they do.
I loooove Dragalia Lost--the artwork is amazing and it gives me something to play when I have no time to play console games. I' super excited for this event. The Fire Emblem event was also a lot of fun.
It's probably a freelance artist/animator under a tight deadline. The person that copied it may have even seen it somewhere else than the game like a youtube video of gameplay, etc. It reminds me of the recent event where the Solo movie was caught ripping of album covers from a French CD compilation.
I love draglia lost and I've been playing since day 1. If you love great character artwork, the game has it in spades. The gameplay is pretty fun and if like grinding and leveling up...it's heaven.
Can you spend real money on the game? I'm kind of hoping they bring some of their mobile games over to the Switch. I've been playing Dragalia lost EVERY DAY since it launched.
Passing this even with the fixes since I can get the superior PS4 version any time without waiting for updates. I think the worst thing from this experience is more people will hold off from buying games that have multiple console versions until they see the reviews.
Meh. I'm tired of their attempts at "trickle down" releases. By the time we get a good library, we'll have to migrate to the next system and start it ALL OVER AGAIN.
For current owners, I hope there's a way to play our digital games on both machines. Kind of like how Apple lets you have an iTunes account on several devices. This plus cloud save would make the mini worth buying for current owners.
YAAASSS! Romancing Saga 3 was original on the Super Famicom (SNES)--I'm loving the chance to play this 16 bit classic soon. I wish we could get more SNes for the Switch from anyone! Day one for me for sure for Saga 3!
I love this one to death...I played it on my PS3 until my unit died. Then I picked up the remaster and loved it even more. The world-building they put into this game is really cool--the desert areas, jungles, etc. I'll probably pick it up for the switch just for the treat of being able to play it on the go.
Dragalia Lost is fun if you like building up characters. It's a slow grind but I love being able to play any time and anywhere. As a graphic artist by trade, I'm really digging the work they put in this game--art and design wise.
Meh...they could have done something cooler while we wait for the Holidays for the next big games. Just give us the full lineup. It's weird and hard to get excited about games being released based on some unknown factor.
I just spent $120 on Dragalia Lost after months of just spending a few dollars here and there. I can comfortably go back into not spending a dime for the next few months again. The level of attention given to the game is very exceptional. I don't feel cheated on that $120 at all.
This game is AWESOME. I love grinding elements in RPGs and Dragalia has a ton of stuff to do...I can focus on making a new weapon for a bit then switch to something else on the fly.
My fave part is it's a real time action RPG with playtime limited to 4 minutes or less bursts. I can literally play when I'm walking from the coffee shop to a nearby bar
As a raver, I'm bummed I missed this. This is cool on so many levels. I love the idea of people having fun together irregardless of how they look or where they're from.
At least we were spared the disappointment of no Metroid 4 reveal at E3. Maybe they should hold back the Prime Trilogy release and redo it to be more like a major upgrade and release it next fall.
Landstalker, the Phantasy Star and Shining games are hidden treats in this collection! I'm happy for anyone who gets to discover these gems for the first time!
I like it! I play it very casually now, but the first two months were a total blast when I played it much more. I don't mind the money I poured into it--the artwork is amazing and you can tell they have a full blown staff working on it tot make the art, dialogue and game elements unique and plentiful.
Not everyone checks IVs for competitive reasons...I like to have a nice strong team to have fun taking down bosses. Also, when you catch a lot of the same Pokemon, checking the IV is the best way to whittle down the ones that you want to train/keep/evolve. ...Or you can completely ignore IVs and still enjoy the game. I'm glad Game Freak kept it in there for us.
Thank God Nintendo doesn't run the music industry: can you imagine something along the lines like "this month we'll release 3 tracks from Jimi Hendrix". People want to play their favorite games any time on their own schedules.
I'm enjoying this game immensely. Getting the best characters is pretty frustrating but the art, music, and hectic gameplay keeps me hooked on it. I love how every mission takes only 2-3 minutes to complete. The developers really listen to the players.

Re: Guide: How To Check IVs And Catch Pokémon With Flawless IVs In Pokémon: Let's Go On Nintendo Switch
