E3 2016: Nintendo's Last Stand

pokemon looks fucking great

[C.Mongler]

i mean it looked like fucking pokemon lol

[Hiro]

well yeah but it actually looks like a solid evolution to me, having the realistic proportions is fucking nice and it looks a lot more polished and the extra info in battle is great

[C.Mongler]

i just wish i could be excited about a pokemon game again

i gave up on Y after like 5 hours because it felt like the same game i had played the year before and the year before that AND the year before that, just with minor quality of life tweaks and some new faces/models/animations

i didn't really see anything to be excited about, as a casual fan. i don't know what changes I would need to see to get on board, but certainly didn't see anything from the 40 minutes they showed today.

[squirrelfriend]

yeah the new generation doesn't look that better
I wish they released another title like pokemon stadium because i don't really like the sterile battle environments you are warped to lol

[C.Mongler]

yeah i'd be content with a stadium-like. pokemon games typical have stories catered to complete fucking morons, so might as well just scrap that shit and keep the actual fun part of the game heh heh

[Samus Aran]

i'm not opposed to that either, but i'm also a big fan of pokemon anyway so i'll always enjoy the next main entry in the series

[Hiro]

yeah the new generation doesn't look that better
I wish they released another title like pokemon stadium because i don't really like the sterile battle environments you are warped to lol

uh did you watch the gameplay today, the battle environment look a lot better than stadium, they even have trainers present throughout now too

[C.Mongler]

as someone who isn't a hardcore fan of this series anymore though, that's an entirely negligible addition lol; 'the battles are just like the show!!' isn't really a selling point for me anymore because the battles have been close enough to the show since the late DS pokemons

[squirrelfriend]

yeah i can't stand the jaggies
make them learn more than four moves
also why did they add a screen for stat lowering moves
are they going to actually matter this gen

Zelda might be the single most talked-about game on that list, but Nintendo still has way less talk than the Sony stuff combined.

also it's amazing how different that list is from the final number of sales those games will see

[C.Mongler]

the fuck was there to say about battlefront?
