Social NintenZone Social 4 - Bring It In, Guys!

[Chrono.]

Time for the next Pokemon poll!

This was the one I promised a few weeks back. I originally thought about making a poll relating to everyone's thoughts on the XY series as a whole when the final XY&Z came out, but because it hit me that not everyone has watched those episodes, I needed to make the poll more inclusive. The solution? A poll related to all of the Pokemon anime as a whole.

In honor of the Sun and Moon anime series starting tomorrow, here's the question for everyone:

What was your favorite series of the Pokemon anime?

Answer in the Strawpoll below!

http://www.strawpoll.me/11668226

You can only pick one so choose wisely!

I think most people already know which one I picked, and I don't need to explain it since I've done that numerous times in the past.

Voted XY.

Recency bias for the win?

LOL, Lockstin made fun of Verlisify and Tyranitartube

I haven't seen past the Hoenn series. And May was a good partner in the anime. So that gets my vote.

Curious how who will accept the award if Pokémon Uranium or Project AM2R wins and if Nintendo will interfere (they DEFINITELY should not pull a Konami if they do)

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Why would they bother? They did their job, they took the Project AM2R game down, I dont think Uranium was Nintendo

Unlike Konami, Nintendo doesn't hate the people that made the game

 

[Z25]

Posting this here cause it's good:

Spoilered in case anyone thinks that something fanmade is spoilerly here, even if it was made before spoilers occurred.

I'm still not sure what actually happened with Uranium (though I don't care too much now thanks to the "Official Unofficial server" keeping the game alive)

But yeah, I think you're right about Nintendo wouldn't be total ****s on it.

http://www.strawpoll.me/11668226

You can only pick one so choose wisely!

I think most people already know which one I picked, and I don't need to explain it since I've done that numerous times in the past.

Voted for Hoenn.
It's possibly my favorite region with some of my most-liked pokemon in it.
The Advanced Battle theme song was awesome, and still remains the 2nd greatest pokemon intro (after the original of course).
It had May.
It had Brock.
It had Team Rocket.
It had Max pulling on Brock's ear and dragging him away from girls he fell for.
It had everything one could want in a pokemon show.
Why would I vote for anything else?

 

[Aetheri]

So...what you mean to tell me is that Metroid is nominated for an award...

And its not the one that's made by Nintendo?

And its fan-voted too...I wouldn't be surprised if it won either...I just wonder if it does Nintendo actually pays attention to that...

Sakurai is working on a brand new project.

Prepare yoselves.

Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to it.

Kid Icarus Uprising 2? Kirby's Air Ride 2? Bash Sisters... what was that game called?

 

[LancerStaff]

But your eyes haven't seen any more than ours. And all we've seen is a game that resembles 64/Sunshine/Galaxy.

Those are three different games mate.

Super Mario Galaxy is almost totally linear. 64 is not. To be frank I don't understand why the two get categorized with each other...

Regardless everything we've seen is totally linear and doesn't resemble 64.

Nintendo won't. Look, there's nothing wrong with fan passion nor fan games that aren't making money. So yeah, they're overacting just a tad over board.

But Nintendo is a mega-watt company. They're doing what most companies actually would. When they're cancelling a fan game or mod. It's not because they hate their fans, but rather protecting their intellectual property, which is well in their rights.

-shrug-

 

[Wario Bros.]

Playing the Game Corner in Pokémon Uranium is reminding me I miss it in the official games.

Regardless everything we've seen is totally linear and doesn't resemble 64.

Maybe it's because they're both 3D platformers where Mario collects stars at the end of every level.

 

[ChikoLad]

Ever have one of those times in a game where you're like "man, I handled that gracefully".

This was one of those times for me.

 

[Wolfie557]

Kid Icarus Uprising 2? Kirby's Air Ride 2? Bash Sisters... what was that game called?

Super Bash Sisters is Smash Bros.
Better be KIU2..even if I would like PG* to make it. Nintendo could aid development and story with Sakurai supervising.

Thats my dream for KIU2 development.

How does MiH work exactly?

Playing the Game Corner in Pokémon Uranium is reminding me I miss it in the official games.

That reminds me of the time I grinded on Voltorb Flip for 10.000 coins only so my Jolteon would have a decent Electric STAB
I got that damned minigame stuck in my head for a week and probably mastered its art
I ****ing hate it but at least it's not boring like the usual Game Corners

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Kirby's Air Ride 2

Me and my sister loved that game to death, I wouldnt mind a 2

 

[Aetheri]

Nintendo won't. Look, there's nothing wrong with fan passion nor fan games that aren't making money. So yeah, they're overacting just a tad over board.

My point is basically for Nintendo to see the demand for a 2D metroid game if AM2R wins...
I wasn't saying Nintendo would do anything with AM2R specifically because obviously they won't...

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I dont think Japan even likes Metroid that much to begin with If I recall

 

[Lord Dio]

How does MiH work exactly?

I'll spoil it just to be safe

Spoiler

Made In Heaven speeds up time.
But I just remembered living organisms like people with body clocks aren't affected by this.....
Still, it'd be better to use MIH to make it friday in a flash, than to do KC's seconds-long time skips.
Remember KC skips 10 seconds of time. So after some math....you'd have to use the time skip 8,640 consecutive times in order to get to this point in time tomorrow.
Iirc KC's timeskip itself also doesn't affect body clocks....could be wrong though.
All in all, MIH is a lot easier to use for this. However (iirc the above statement), neither affects body clocks. So Ninty could be doing some last-minute stuff, and then suddenly it's Friday. With no time left, they postpone launch to Saturday.
So unless Nintendo has the game completely done and just wanted to make us wait, it wouldn't help to use either. But if SuMo is completely done right now, it'd be better to use MIH.

 

[Ivander]

Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to it.

Kid Icarus Uprising 2? Kirby's Air Ride 2? Bash Sisters... what was that game called?

Super Bash Sisters is Smash Bros.
Better be KIU2..even if I would like PG* to make it. Nintendo could aid development and story with Sakurai supervising.

Thats my dream for KIU2 development.

I'd actually be laughing so hard if Super Bash Sisters was actually a hidden game in development by Sakurai with little relation to Smash Bros. It'd be one of the greatest trolls in gaming history.
Edit: Now that I can actually type, I would like both Kid Icarus Uprising 2 and Kirby Air Ride 2. Both of the first games are awesome.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

My point is basically for Nintendo to see the demand for a 2D metroid game if AM2R wins...
I wasn't saying Nintendo would do anything with AM2R specifically because obviously they won't...

Yeah. Nintendo is going to ignore the franchises they ignore until they see a profit base for them. That's unfortunately how business works.

The next time a major Metroid comes out, the only way to continue to get more is to show them with your wallet.

 

[Aetheri]

I dont think Japan even likes Metroid that much to begin with If I recall

Metroid is more popular in the west than it is in Japan....

However the market is s lot larger than just one country...

 

[Knight Dude]

I'm interested in seeing what Sakurai would do. I don't think he'd make another Smash game so soon, but I could be wrong. But I'd personally like to him try his hand bringing back another series like he did for KIU. Maybe F-ZERO, but it doesn't have to have the same kind of humor/talking during races.

 

[Aetheri]

Yeah. Nintendo is going to ignore the franchises they ignore until they see a profit base for them. That's unfortunately how business works.

Well we need a major Metroid first of all...games don't make profits if there's nothing to sell...

 

[Wario Bros.]

Speaking of Sakurai, I'm not sure what I want more: Super Bash Sisters or Dragon King: The Fighting Game
