I voted ceruledge it's probably one of the coolest designs in the series so far. Other favorites are Skeledirge, Flamigo, Annihilape, Kilowattrel, and Korridon.
Voted for Dracovish yeah its a crime against nature and logically shouldn't be alive but God damn it's my crime against nature. Other favorites are Cinderace, Corviknight, Obstagoon, Stonjurnour, and Toxtricity.
I voted vikavolt it I love it's design and used it on my in game teams in both games shame it evolved late ( the ultra games fixed that). Other favorites include Incineroar, Lycanrock, Toucannon, Araquanid, and Solgaleo.
@SuperEndriu that is true but fever just came out a week ago. Personally I just think it's a little premature to say either way really I'd give it another week.
Gen 6 always felt a bit rushed to me that said I voted tyrantrum don't know why it took so long for a T-rex pokemon but hey they finally did it. My other favorites are Agislash, Greninja, trevanent, Talonflame, and Xerneas
One of my favorite gens aside from gen 2 and 4 there were quite a few pokemon I like but none more than zoroark, It got a movie, and had an in game event to get! My other favorites would be Victini, Samurott, Beartic, Zebstrika, and Haxorus
Of all the gen 2 pokemon scizor spoke out th loudest to me even back during gold and silver my other personal favorites are noctowl,Typhlosion,and umbreon (especially shiny).
Kinda surprised the Japanese boxart is so bland for this one, that said I voted for the American boxart it's the same as the Groupon one but green kinda makes rayman stand out better.
Between charizard and gyarados I chose Gyarados. Charizard is my all time favorite but it feels so rewarding evolving a feeble little magikarp into this leviathan. Sadly it's super weak to electricity, that's when mega gyarados comes in!
@johnedwin because a turn based RPG doesn't really benefit from 60 fps. If the game is good ( and this is dragon quest we're talking about) then folks will play it despite lacking in striking visuals.
@Grim it's not about the boxart being literal. They are essentially trying to sell you the game, Simpler boxarts are effective but sometimes it might take more to sell a game.
Voted for the north American boxart. It showcases more characters as well the then new power shot gimmick. The Japanese boxart os a little to close to the na n64 boxart of anything one would think it was a remake.
It wouldn't surprise me at this point that because of these leaks that some of the planned titles either. A. Change significantly to what they were going to be or B. Canceled altogether.
Well square enix then I'll just buy the switch 1 version instead. It's a shame really but this is the same company that ported over ( I won't say remade) a 3ds game on a key card so of course they'll take the cheapest route possible.
Seems like everyone is having a pleasant experience with pre orders so far. As for myself I got mine delivered by Wal mart this morning and it came with a free can of Pringles and a coke.
How about Midbus he only shows in BIS and it's remake or maybe snailicorn. ( the horned snail enemy in the 1st nsmb) my last pick would be Raphael the raven from yoshi's island.
This is 2k did we really expect any different? Nintendo basically made the game key cards to combat stuff like this. But leave it to companies like EA and 2K to take the worst possible route.
Well already pre-ordered along time ago from my local wal-mart. Didn't think I would be able to get one and mario kart world that easy so the email invite was kinda like a contingency plan for me.
NA hands down! It I get what the japanese cover was trying to accomplish but the American/ Europe cover is much better it gives a better feel what the game is like the cool action pose helps too.
I guess after some surprisingly consumer friendly releases from one (in big quotation marks) of its oldest series I guess EA thought people would get the wrong idea. And then proceed with a mass firing to remind people how abhorrent they are.
I'm thinking maybe they could do a remake of mario sunshine in 4k. And I'm not talking about an enhanced port! Fix the physics, make the blue coin shines actual missions and maybe add a hard mode for those of us who already played the game 100s of times.
The American/European cover better shows off what the game is about without saying too much. The majority of the pikmin fleeing, the blue pikmin attacking the offending bulborb, all While olimar the games protagonist just watches.
I think nintendo life will be fine. This app is just for news regarding their games,systems,etc. With probably direct links to the official site. Meanwhile ni tendolife covers more then just nintendo games and systems but also interesting opinion pieces and the like so I'll still visit even after downloading the app.
You know despite playing stadium 1 and 2 as kid for years I legitimately didn't know that. Though to be fair how many of us thought to teach venusaur, Pikachu, Nidoking, etc. Mimic?
Can I just add that while I am not defending gamefreak for all they did wrong. At the same time I would like to remind people that this is from a company that for the better half of 30 years made games for nintendo's handhelds. So comparatively their console experience is still pretty recent.

Re: Japanese Charts: Yakuza Kiwami 3 Brings The Fight To Mario Tennis
I don't want to be that guy but how is mario tennis fever being #2 on the sales charts bad? If anything that's pretty good being a spinoff.
