Social NintenZone Social 4 - Bring It In, Guys!

[Ura]

I gotta say. I'm a lot less excitable than most of you guys are for the Switch.

What you guys think is super exciting I think is fairly decent.

I wont be super excited about the Switch until I hear abount an animal Crossing game

 

[Chandeelure]

Yeah... I'm actually not that hyped for the Switch.

I need a confirmation of the Smash port with new characters, well... that wouldn't be enough, tbh only Bandana Dee, Ridley or a character like that would make me hyped.

I don't give a crap about veterans or most of the "likely" characters.

So yeah.

Maybe Pokemon Stars would make me hyped, maybe.

 

[Yellowlord]

I do hope Nintendo gives everyone the proper Animal Crossing game they deserve. After Amiibo Cashgrab Festival, I felt bad for the fans; let's hope its made up this time with the Switch.

 

[MF Viewtiful]

I have a decent amount of excitement for the Switch. Granted it's hard for me to work up something when so little is still out there. The upcoming presentation hopefully will shed some light and give me something to look forward.

 

[Aurane]

That's an interesting set for Kommo-o, I'm honestly a bigger fan of the Special sets for the dragon because it's not as outclassed in the role (especially since lord Hydreigon is MIA from VGC this year) and Clanging Scales is a nice option to have, so I like how you came up with this one. May I ask why some of the EVs are put into HP and Def though? Does it help it avoid certain KO situations?

I got the set from Smogon's Kommo-O discussion.

Kommo-o @ Life Orb
Ability: Bulletproof / Overcoat
EVs: 72 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA / 180 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Autotomize
- Clanging Scales
- Focus Blast
- Flash Cannon / Flamethrower

This set takes more of a sweeping approach and is more tailored to its strong special movepool. It has the bulk to set up on a number of Pokemon, and the spread specifically is designed to outspeed Adamant Mega Scizor, outspeed up to Scarf Garchomp when Kommo-o is at +2 while also hitting a LO number. I wouldn't consider this spread optimal right now, you can absolutely go ahead and play around with the spreads (outspeeding Modest Kingdra in rain is something you might find interesting so that Pelipper+Kingdra doesn't stop your sweep). Outspeeding Pheromosa is also a blessing so that it doesn't stop your sweep short. Choice between Flash Cannon and Flamethrower depends on how much you really hate Aegislash, but it's good so that it can punch holes in the enemy team and Aegislash early game before you actually decide to go for a sweep.

I'm using it as base, and seeing what I can tweak and what needs a buff or not. Speed is likely because Kingdra is pretty relevant due to rain spam.

I actually like Amiibo Festival. It is what it is, a Board game but Animal Crossing sytle. But I wouldnt mind another animal Crossing game

 

[Yellowlord]

Oh? Well, I respect that then; this is just from the majority of other people that either saw the game or played it for themselves (the former includes me since I saw it immediately that it was a cashgrab). No offense, either way.

I mean I can understand why they were mad but Id take anything, I was hoping it was a main game but Im not in any position to demand anything

Inb4 New Leaf Switch version

 

[Champ Gold]

Considering half of the stuff got leaked and I'm expecting everything else as well, I kinda just seem alright for it.

Plus other things have caught my interest

Plus until I see something that makes me want to pick up a Switch, then I'll do it. As for now, 3DS is doing fine

On my battle tree team I'm using a Life orb Kommo-O, It's been doing pretty good. He can take a hit pretty good, unless it's flying

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Inb4 New Leaf Switch version

Ay, New Leaf is a good game Id buy it. I love New Leaf to death. It the main reason I got a new 3DS Battery as soon as I could

 

[Deleted member]

As promising as the Switch looks in the reveal trailer, I can't be super excited for the console when we really don't know much about it aside from rumors that should be taken with a grain of salt.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Ay, New Leaf is a good game Id buy it. I love New Leaf to death. It the main reason I got a new 3DS Battery as soon as I could

I loved new leaf until I waited day after day for a villager I liked to move in

But just when I find one of those villagers and he wants to move in, someone had moved in THAT VERY DAY and took up the last plot of land. It made me EXTREMELY angry and I quit playing

 

[Aurane]

The only true game to be hyped for in the Switch's lineup is Skyrim for a plethora of reasons- one being the inclusion of the first TES game in a Nintendo console. Also the other games we know about, to me, simply do not compare.

Opinions.

Or Fairy. Especially Fairy. Fairies can go **** themselves for ruining such an awesome typing.

EDIT: Wait I'm suppose to be asleep. I got to get up semi early. ****. Uhh- good night!

I mention flying especially since I have 2 members that are weak against flying. I didn't think of that when I made my team.

But, for the most part it hasn't had a problem because I lead with scarf'd Xurkitree

 

[Ura]

Same though I have a list of certain series I want to see on the Switch which most people can easily guess by now. It's going to be the breadth of software that pulls me in and not just Mario and BoTW. Especially since i'm planning on getting BoTW on the Wii U ATM.

Yeah... I'm actually not that hyped for the Switch.

Yeah. I want a Smash port that has proper newcomers instead of one that just adds back vets or has nothing at all. That's just lame IMO because newcomers are what drives interest for the game.

That's not to say I don't want vets at all of course. and are among my most requested characters for Smash Bros. Just don't want vets to be the only additions in this port. Sakurai outta let his team have control over the game and not be in the mentality that only he can make Smash Bros.

 

[Aetheri]

I'm definitely anxious for the Switch but still trying to remain more or less reserved for it for the most part...

Still undecided if I'll buy it at launch, which wholey depends on the launch lineup...Breath of the Wild would be very nice, I know rumours are currently pointed at it making the Switch's launch so we'll see...

And then there's Metroid...I'm highly skeptical we'll see a Metroid game for launch, at best a holiday release after an e3 reveal, at worst a 2018 release or none at all...

Smash with new content and characters would be nice...and FFXV and/or FFVIIR would also be pretty neat...

 

[Yellowlord]

Honestly, if they have a Smash game planned, regardless of its a port or not, it would be really stupid to not add in new characters (King K. Rool and Isaac come to mind for me) and/or bring back one or two fan favorites (Ice Climbers, Wolf, etc.) alongside new stages and content (some sort of story mode or boss rush mode) or even stuff that was stuck on the 3DS version (Smash Run for Switch with new enemies, maybe)?

I wouldn't buy the port if they didn't add in anything new, honestly; even if they put in all the DLC in the port. It'll still remain the same game to me and I'll just stick with the Wii U version.

Thankfuly now, if you haved the villagers amiibo card you could kick the one you dont want out and make your wanted Villager move in

Same though I have a list of certain series I want to see on the Switch which most people can easily guess by now. It's going to be the breadth of software that pulls me in and not just Mario and BoTW. Especially since i'm planning on getting BoTW on the Wii U ATM.

yeah, I plan on getting BotW on wii U also. Glad Im not alone

 

[Z25]

Aaaand more Breath of the Wild.

I think a good think to note here is what GX found:

does this mean I get to hear that nice "Thank you" Again?

 

[Z25]

So those that watched the SU episodes that leaked, there's a really interesting detail I saw pointed out. Tags @Shishœ

Spoiler: Massive Story Spoilers

This may be a coincidence, but regardless, that's some really good foreshadowing. The episodes were great to. So much story to them...

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Well Atlus said " Naw" To Persona 5 releasing on Switch, which I knew wouldnt never happen.

Out of curiosity, who were you waiting for to move in?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

idk why but I could really go for some Taco Bell right about now

Like suddenly I got a craving

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Out of curiosity, who were you waiting for to move in?

I had a list of villagers I wanted, I don't remember which one showed up. I think it was a bird

I do remember the villager that showed up and ruined the fun though was a pink frog

 

[Erureido]

Another day at the Battle Tree, this time against some really cool opponents:

My opponent for my 30th consecutive battle in Super Singles was none other than ma boi Wally! Sadly, he didn't use Mega Gallade against me. Instead, he used Mega Garchomp, which I didn't know he used. It took one Dazzling Gleam before KOing my Tapu Koko with a single Earthquake. I brought in my Garchomp and used Outrage on it to finish it off. Next came his Altaria, but that went down very quickly with another Outrage. His Magnezone was lost, and it took one more Outrage. I managed to bypass the confusion and use Earthquake to finish it off.

Cynthia (2nd favorite champion hype!) was my opponent for my 40th consecutive Super Singles battle. She opened with her Garchomp, and predicting the Earthquake and a potential Mega Evolution, I switched into Kartana thinking it could take hit and try to land one hit to deal some good damage. Unfortunately, her Garchomp outspeed Kartana (it wasn't the Mega Evolved one), so Kartana couldn't land a single attack to getting KO'd. I then had to switch into Garchomp. Surprisingly, she used Earthquake again rather than a Dragon attack, so Garchomp got it with a single Outrage. Next came her Mega Lucario, which took out Garchomp with a Close Combat. Thanks to the stat lowering and damage from Rough Skin, Tapu Koko one-shotted it with Thunderbolt. Now her Spiritomb was the only Pokemon left, but this is where I experience a rather frustrating loss. Spiritomb barely survived a Dazzling Gleam and managed to get a Swagger on Tapu Koko. What followed was Tapu Koko hitting itself in confusion for two straight turns as Spiritomb took advantage of it with Shadow Sneak. Man, if it wasn't confusion hax for two turns, I could've won.

Welp, back to square 1. I decided to go for normal Singles, and I completed all 20 battles. Red's entire team was weak to Electric-types, so Tapu Koko made quick work of him, so that was a good way to finish a day at the Battle Tree.

 

[Ura]

I want the Mexican kid in my avi to get in Smash Bros but you guys pretty much know that by now.

yeah, I plan on getting BotW on wii U also. Glad Im not alone

You're not alone for sure. I bet a lot of other people are probably getting BoTW on the Wii U as well myself included. I just hope Nintendo isn't going to distribute a very small quantity of BoTW Wii U copies though TBH I am expecting that with how BoTW is much more focused on the Switch.

Back with TP I recall the Gamecube version still being in stock around mid-2008 even with the game releasing at the end of 2006 so I have some hope for Wii U BoTW.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

So this ruind your fun?

I remember I made an Orchid and ****ing Lucha moved in the middle of it and ruined it

If they do pull that, I'll just download it. I got a TB harddrive here not being used

I was looking at the available pink frogs and puddles doesn't really look how I remember the frog looking. But I guess she fits. I'm just not completely sure

 

[mario123007]

I played the NieR: Automana demo, having no experience with the previous game, I was completely lost story wise (assuming it even connects to it).

But I did really enjoy it gameplay-wise. The camera gave me some trouble, but everyone else was really good. May pick this up sometime down the line.

I watch the demo gameplay video on Youtube. And the gameplay was awesome, story a bit dull of course since it's just a demo.

And NieR:Automata being developed by Platinum Games and published by SquareEnix is already convincing enough for me to think that this game might comes to Nintendo Switch. Not saying it should, but it's release date March 2017 worldwide just makes me think porting this game to Switch is pretty feasible in my opinion. If this games comes to Nintendo Switch I won't be surprised, I will be excite though and buy the game.

 

[Curious Villager]

I think a good think to note here is what GX found:

So Beedle has essentially become Zelda's Anna now, huh?

He has appeared in the Wind Waker, Minish Cap, Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks and Skyward Sword too. (Maybe Four Swords Adventures as well but I'm not sure)

Can't wait to hear his OOOOOOOH and THAAANK YOUU again.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I was looking at the available pink frogs and puddles doesn't really look how I remember the frog looking. But I guess she fits. I'm just not completely sure

I got a frog that moved in named Diva and I thought she was ugly

Then the ***** started being nice to me and I was like " Great, just great"

 

[FalKoopa]

I never buy consoles or games day 1 so I'm just looking forward to a good lineup of games in the Switch presentation.

The more the merrier.

 

[Kurri ★]

I never buy consoles at launch because I never have the chance to. Considering it'll be launching in March, maybe I can change that and cop one for my birthday in April. I just hope there's a decent line up. But even if there isn't. At least I fulfilled my goal of owning every console per gen.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

If I wanted a frog, I'd have prefered Ribbot

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

If I wanted a frog, I'd have prefered Ribbot

If there is one Frog I like, its Lily, shes a cute frog

 

[PsychoIncarnate]
