OnlySP: Was anyone else less than thrilled about the “big” Pokémon announcement today? Maybe I’m just getting old, but simply announcing that a new entry in a long-running franchise is getting a new generation doesn’t cut it for me. I’d like a little meat in my announcements, particularly ones that themselves receive an announcement for said announcement ahead of time like this one.
Don’t get me wrong, the video was a neat little chunk of nostalgia for Pokémon’s big two-oh, but it didn’t really tell us anything we didn’t already know. And I’m not talking about the leaks yesterday.
Even if the eShop has now closed down, the best 3DS games are still worth playing — in any way you can get your hands on them.
Pokémon’s shift to 3D was a big mistake, as the series’ roots in 2D design make it difficult to transfer important game mechanics into a 3D overworld.
why do other games pull off 3D monster collecting JRPG games just fine? Look at Jade Cocoon and Shin Megami Tensei for examples.
Pokemon Sun and Moon introduced Ultra Beasts, which are a gang of otherworldly Pokemon that resemble a few invasive species from the real world.
Well the last few games weren't exactly amazing and you can milk a franchise only so much until it gets stale. I really don't undertand why Nintendo doesn't make the move to home consoles with it...
I wonder if all the worlds from the previous games will be avaliable on this new version, i'm clueless about the series now because the last i played are Red/Blue/Yellow.
I'm also not a huge fan of portable gaming, i have a 3DS and it's a wonderful platform, Vita is great too, but i still prefer these games like Pokemon on consoles with my TV.
It was was short..very short..
and well all know...SIZE MATTERS ;P
I hate any announcement where zero details are shared let alone a any footage. What's the point should of just waited
Maybe in your opinion but from what I've seen all day there is hype from all over. The trailer build up to the title card was really great and had a big emphasis on being connected (possibly hinting to an mmo hybrid of sorts?). Looking back at the trailer gave an interesting look into what they want to do with the game and it's looking like a much bigger scale if trucks are involved. We got that tease at the new Pokemon (I feel maybe either this gens Pidgey or possibly a starter?). They still also haven't announced if this is apart of gen 6 (like Black/White 2) or if it is a completely new generation (though concept art points to gen7, at least to me)
For the little we got, we got a lot and it's enough to drive discussion and speculation all the way to E3 where like X&Y we will have a proper reveal and I'm sure CoroCoro will leak a bunch of stuff before.
