Re: Pokemon Direct 1/8

I love how people are already crying about the starters. Though I'm not surprised. It's been the same deal with every installment since Hoenn.

Well Chespin does look like the love child of Oshawott and Tepig with a leaf slapped on it to make it look like a grass type.

I still love him. We've never had a fox and frog starter though. They look pretty good.

I suppose these looked better? lol

Not saying any gen was bad, but ever since the first gen, they've always had their stupid ones. And I was just talking about the starters. I guess a turtle is ok, but a frog isn't (speaking about the few comments I saw elsewhere)?

Chespin is understandable. He really does look like an Oshawat reskin.

I don't think the 3D games were tile based, but I never played them. It'd be too big of a shift if they changed it now, though. Maybe next gen.

Nope, not tile based at all.

The retailer who tend to sell these the cheapest still sell the 3DS (XL only, apparently) for €199,99.
So I suppose they were more expensive to begin with, but it's still a high price for just one game which will cost an additional €50 in stores here, most likely.

That doesn't mean I don't think the game looks pretty great. It's just that I can't justify the cost of all that for one game, even though it's an exciting announcement.
I'm mostly an MMO'er or RPG'er and there aren't a lot of Nintendo-games that immediately click with me. Must be from all the PC- and PS-gaming. Ah well. c:

I mostly got my PSP for one game, then slowly got more.
Also Kingdom Hearts DDD is on 3DS.


I want the fennec.

I've literally never chosen fire...wait I did choose the lizard. I just never got far in the original. But that was the only time. I may go with the fire this time. And I love how the X and Y look like the legendaries, which look pretty awesome themselves.

Re: Pokemon Direct 1/8

yea, the logos are based on the legendaries which is neat. and theyre the first to not be colors (they finally ran out i guess XD)

fave starter has to be the Fennec which BETTER NOT TURN INTO FIRE-FIGHTING i swear i will hate them if it does :I its the first quadrupedal fire starter since Cyndaquil as well which was pure fire 8D

the grass one is meh. looks like a Breloom-Oshawott love child. and the water one.. its ok.. its definitely different i was getting sick of turtles. it also looks like it might be a water-ice type too

Re: Pokemon Direct 1/8

they can be considered colors in the way they were used. Ruby-red, sapphire-blue, emerald-green. pearl is its own color because you picture how light reflects off of pearls. diamond.. well diamonds are a clear, no-opacity white. platinum has its own shade of shiny grey. little kids, or anyone who doesnt take art classes considers black and white to be colors. from a scientific standpoint they can be considered as such. crystal was also a reference to the crystalline type of look on Suicune's head piece which was the same blue as the packaging.

A ruby, emerald, sapphire are precious stones.
Gold and silver are elements like carbon, helium and such.

Re: Pokemon Direct 1/8

Still, something about the name Pokemon X...is pretty damn cool sounding. Just say that:

POKEMON X!! All the sudden you feel like Snake Plissken is gonna be a playable character except he'll be fighting legendaries and the new Team with his cock.

But if it fails: Pokemon, Y!?!? <(Q^Q)>

Re: Pokemon Direct 1/8

I'm reeeal hesitant about X & Y. I stopped playing at Diamond and Pearl, and skipped Black/White 1 & 2 because I didn't like the generation that much. I was almost tempted to get White 2 because I heard it has a lot of classic pokemans to the point that even someone in the game gives you a dratini (my 3rd favourite pokemon) so I almost got drawn in, then I saw that the price is still expensive, so I skipped them.

I'm betting X & Y will be 39.99 in the US, but I might be able to get it for my birthday, so that's alright. I'm not digging the camera angle -at all-. It feels very pressured, close, and hard to see things around you a lot of the time, which triggers my claustrophobia a noticeable amount, but the battle scenes look Stadium-ish, which is cool.
