Re: Review: Coromon - A Charming Pokémon-Style Quest To Catch All Of 'Em

To me the things that make Pokemon games special and worth playing are the world, the characters, the soundtrack, and Pokemon themselves that I have an attachment to... its really hard for another game to capture that. To be honest its been hard for GameFreak themselves to capture that at times lately.

Still, its hard to play something else when it just makes me long for the thing its imitating.

Re: Nintendo Files Trademark Application For 'NSW'

spottedleaf

I think the deal with trademarks is that it protects their usage in a certain context

So specifically, you cant have a video games (or maybe computer or even A/V) named NSW. But if you had a restaurant called NSW, the trademark would not apply.

For instance, I know Hershey trademarked the shade of orange used to market Reese's candy, but the result was that you could not use that shade of orange to market food. Unrelated use of it was fine

Personally from this showcase, I think that there will be some good announcements. Third party releases doesn't mean nothing and there are usually very pleasant suprises and major games. I dont have too much money to spend on games this year anyway.

Id like to point out to everyone that the people asking for third party games and asking for first party games are often different groups

Also, the problem is that the games being released are very niche and have limited appeal. Pokemon fans will have had 3 mainline games in 12 months, and while that sounds good, its wont to fatigue
