Going to add $70 Eshop credit later today for Splatoon 2. More excited to play it now than I was a week ago. Already have the new Inkling Girl and Boy amiibo schedule to arrive today from Best Buy.

I want to get Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star too, but due to release timing it won't get my full attention (see above). I'll get that later on down the road.

Re: Pokémon GO iOS 1.39.0 & Android 0.69.0 Update Rolls Out

I hope that one of the bugs they fixed is the one with the gym is being "under attack" right after you take down an enemies gym and somebody from your team put in theirs. I saw the notice on the faq help screen about it, so at at least they are aware of that and others.

It would be also nice if they do something about Blissey (Lower CP, faster motivation drop). I can't fault her for a having a high HP but did they really forget that she have the defense of an egg. Hope they have something planned for Shedinja's 1hp.

That was a nice read, very informative. It’s good to hear from people that works behind to scene with stuff like this and not comments from people on the web with zero experience but a lot of assumptions.

That part about R. Mika and Naruto just reminded me how surprised I was to find out that the actress that plays Perry on Lab Rats also does the English voiceover for Naruto. One of those “what have been seen” (in this case heard) mind blown moments for me.

Re: "Lack Of Buttons" Might Prevent LawBreakers From Coming To Switch

Took a bit of time for him to correct that mistake. He must have been flooded with so much hate comments before actually looking at a Switch Pro controller or a Joy-Con pair.

Personally I can’t say I know anything about this game for me to want a port or not, got to research it later. Tbh when I first saw the topic title, I thought they literally mean Lawbreakers like hackers

Re: Pokémon GO Worldwide Events Detailed, Including New Safari Zone

I hope the people at Grant Park would go for the water types for the perk. The experience bonus seems more beneficial then all the other perks (besides stardust).

The only way encounter bonus will be useful is if it means rare encounters like Mareep and Unown.

Wishful thinking they have something in New York City in the near future.

Re: Guide: Pokémon Go Raids, Raid Bosses, Raid Rewards And Much More Besides

ultraraichu

Went to Manhattan yesterday and there was a crowd of people fighting raid battles/gyms at different parts in midtown. 14 players (on team) taking down a Tyranitar at one of them. Best catch ever (perfect iv). Now if only I can get a TM as a reward.

One of the things I dislike is not being able to stock up on one a day Raid Passes, but I guess this as well as other parts of the update is a safeguard against cheaters/bots.

Re: Nintendo Apologizes for Switch Shortages, Promises an Increase in Production

ultraraichu

Hard for me to say if NA have the same level of storage that JP have. I normally get twitter alerts when they are in stock online every other week.

They need to also worry about restocking joy-con controllers, mainly the Red/Blue ones. Wish I brought them back when people were in a frenzy over the left joy-con issue. harder to find at msrp then the Switch itself.

Re: Pokémon GO's Biggest Update Yet Brings Gym Badges, New Items And Raid Battles

ultraraichu

Although I have some questions on how the new Battles and Pokecoins will be handled, I am happy that are implementing some type of major update after so long.

Now if they can only fix the problems they always have with the PTC accounts. They can at least compensate PTC account holders with Pokecoins or items like incubators and lucky eggs. I haven’t been able to login for +16 hours and the Solstice event ends today, lucky Google users.

ARMS as a digital when it's available.
It's always messed up when a store will have discounts on all game but digital downloads, in this case Best Buy with the Gamers Club Unlocked (20% off). Such is life

Hoping Nintendo have one more surprise up their sleeves for downloads during E3.

Re: Video: Samus Fans Lose Their Minds at Metroid Prime 4 Reveal in Nintendo NY Store

Now that's the power of a brand. A familiar tune, a logo, and "in development" and it's enough to make a grown man cry. I wish my reaction was like that, instead of "I have to get around playing the trilogy pack I backlogged".

A subway train ride away and yet I always act like it's in a different state. Would go today but it's raining outside. Really got to make an effort tomorrow.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of the Pokémon Direct and Its Big Reveals?

ultraraichu

It met my expectations. I wasn’t expecting an “Amazing” factor (especially a week before E3), but a “that’s nice”.

Out of the 3, I’m more excited for Pokkén Tournament DX, still hoping for more features. I would probably be more excited for Ultra Sun and Moon if I knew more about it beside a teaser and date. As for Gold and Silver, not feeling it, but I guess it’s because I’m not a fan of VC for a game I already played, twice.

Re: Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Confirmed for 17th November Release on 3DS

ultraraichu

I wonder if this will be a sequel to Sun and Moon, or just an enhanced version. Hoping for the 1st one since the story did end on a cliffhanger with certain characters.

Real talk: did people full heartedly expect a main series pokemon game for a new hardware the same year it's released? As far as I know all the past Pokemon games were released at least 2 years after the systems release. At least knowing that should of kept some people expectations in check.

Re: Pikmin Rewards Arrive on My Nintendo in North America

ultraraichu

Wow, this will be the first time I ever use my gold coins for something I don't have and genuinely want, instead letting it expire or getting something I wouldn't use/want.

Since I don't have any of the Pikmin 3 dlcs and 80 of my gold coins will expire at the end of june...

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th May (North America)

ultraraichu

Interesting week. I'll download Fire Emblem Echoes later on down the road when I have time to invest in a story based RPG Strategy. I do like Rhythm games so I may go for Dark Witch Music Episode (more research needed).

It's kind of funny that I'm getting the Alm and Celica amiibo before the game, then again I bet there are people who buy amiibo without the games for it (or systems).

Re: Reggie Explains the Reasoning Behind the New 2DS XL

ultraraichu

I wonder if they did this from a psychological point of view to show that they are not droping the 3DS for the Switch.

If they drop the price on the new Nintendo 3DS XL people will think that it's getting phased out, like how some people are thinking now. If they release a new model, it looked like they're continuing support.

Granted it was similar with the Gameboy micro and the original Nintendo DS, so who knows.

Re: 1-2-Switch, Snipperclips and Super Bomberman R All Had Positive Launches on Nintendo Switch

ultraraichu

Nice to see our games are doing well and not just breath of the Wild. I was hoping that people on forums wasn't a reflection of people in real life.

I got BotW and Voez for my personal play time, Snipperclips to play with my gf, and 1-2 Switch to play with friends and family who are not a gamer like me but want to have fun in a fair way, which is over 80% of the people I know.

Even though I still disagree on the pricing with 1-2 Switch, depth and extent the quantity of the games, playing with my little cousins, nephew, and handicapped gaming friends made it worth it; at least more so if I was to play a multiplayer game that I have a clear advantage in.
