@Chibi_Manny in history, sharks were Megalodons, gigantic sharks that have evolved into the smaller sharks we know today to better adapt to their environments and require less food. Same with any other animals so Pokémon Evolutions that are practical at the time, dying out as they are lost to the ages, makes sense.
I would much rather get a Legends game where Eevee evolves into a Normal type evolution upon reaching a certain level, but ancient Eevee long desires to be able to take on new forms of differing types, hence its desire to head to new terrains and environments, enabling it to take new forms in the future and leave behind its original evolution, in the past.
@YusseiWarrior3000 actually they did it before when WarioWare Gold released. Also, ironically, there was a media outlet that penned their WarioWare Gold review as if Wario himself had written it.
The same outlet, before WarioWare: Get It Together! was revealed, also did a series of posts on YouTube, where Wario had been kidnapped, in demand of a new game and he was trying to send out messages for help.
The thing is, a lot of the characters in the game, are based on people the developers knew and lost. So those words could have been something the real person said.
I haven't looked a review here in 6 months at least, but the ones I did see, the screenshots were more a case of media supplied photos accredited to a game, like the ones you'd see on a Nintendo.co.uk or .com web page. Ie the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon page, with the photos being the ones from it's gallery.
I never understood the point of these articles. You're an outlet that actually has the game! Your reviewer can easily tell you what is true and what isn't. So, essentially you're deliberately running an article for views, filled with conjecture. I'm not saying confirm what's real and what isn't, but why belittle yourselves with mistruths and misdirection. You're better than that.
Regardless of leaks, since it is prohibited to share content from the beta, wouldn't that in turn mean you shouldn't be ethically sharing the content? Otherwise it is almost like you're endorsing leaks and anyone who leaks the game, will do so in the hopes that outlets such as yourselves, will pick it up?
amiibo cost money unfortunately. Even at 3 cents for a NFC tag, devs are required to order 100,000 of them as the smallest order. That puts them at $30,000 right there. They then need to design them, manufacture them, get in touch with retailers and have a place to store them and actively promote them. A lot of money is required.
"As a port, the Nintendo Switch version of Saints Row: The Third - The Full Package looks and runs really well – especially for a game as old as Skyrim. The frame rate only ever stutters during cutscenes, and runs super-smooth during actual gameplay."
I think we've played different games as there is a lot of slowdown during Whored mode, multiple instances of framerate dropping in game and game crashing glitches.
"We found ourselves snapping plenty of pictures across both adventures, whether of rickety village boardwalks by the ocean at sunset or blue-tinged forests pulsing with crystals and magical energy."
Yet, the review features 3 photos in particular, which each appear twice.
Kirby, a port of a Wii game, being 6th isn't a bad thing at all when the likes of Smash, Mario, more Mario and Pokémon is in front of it, with Smash and Pokémon seeing a huge amount of sales in no time at all.
The problem with Khan tweeting everything He's said so far about Metroid, is the fact he is with Game Informer. He won't wrote an article about it himself, which everyone can then source, but he'll happily tweet it and have it on forums.
There's a news update in the actual game thay says it will be out in February as well. Also, since the Piranaha Plant amiibo isn't out until February 15, I wasn't expecting it till then.
I can understand having Wii U games on Switch because not everyone had a Wii U but I just don't agree with this kind of content. Yeah, it would be nice to have those games on Switch, but a lot of them we've got sequels to/are in the process of getting.
Nintendo have had multiple platforms for years and these wishlist articles just feel like gamers being a bit too spoilt as they insist on having everything on the one platform. Would be great if it was like that, but that's not life. Life is about settling for what you do get and being grateful for it.
Also, porting a 3DS game is not like porting a Wii U or Wii game, there is a lot of gameplay and a second screen that you need to work around. Ports seem irrelevant if it's just easier to work on a next instalment.
@LoriLoud physical copies have been sent out to certain media sites for review purposes. Others got a code only. Not only does physical exist right now, but copies of it are able to get lost in the wild right now.
I love OoT, but Link's Awakening literally celebrated its 25th anniversary of releasing in Europe on November 18. NA release was August and in Japan, it's been out since June 6, 1993.
Who's to say they will just cover Pokémon news with those accounts? They're developing TOWN as well. We might get regular TOWN news from those accounts as well.
@ThomasS She doesn't look the part at all. I'd much rather a smaller, no name actress who will star in the film as Samus in the Full Suit as opposed to Samus in the Zero Suit.
Spirit Tracks released in December 2009 and Japanese trademarks get renewed every 10 years. This could just be a early renewal and since the last Mario Vs Donkey Kong games were 2015 and 2016, a game for Mobile and Switch (think Pokémon Quest) is likely.
Meltan and Melmetal are not Gen 8 Pokemon. They are the last of Gen 7. You might want to correct that comment.
There are times the Pokémon community can be great and times they can be bad when it comes to misleading information.
"Meltan is a brand new Pokémon, and the first to be revealed from Generation Eight, which will make its full debut next year when the mysterious Pokémon 2019 launches on Nintendo Switch."
@MrGawain They announced 3 in the hopes it would raise interest in LM 1. A lot of gamers said they'd the'd boycott it because a Switch game isn't happening. But this way, a both 3DS and Switch is getting a game, with one playable now and one playable next year.
@NEStalgia Blasters plays more like a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game, with the wackiness and graphics of Sushi Striker. Also, Yo-kai are based on the supernatural beings of Japanese folklore.
