No, it never was when it comes to gaming market overall, and I may get bodied by this but Nintendo was also being the market leader when it comes to handhelds with the 3ds,and still kicking with Nintendo Switch.

Therefore that's why I said it never matters,news report wise. Because it only focuses on Sony doing well, and gloss over Nintendo. .. I don't it might nor make any sense but I hope you see my point there. If the article wanna focuses on Sony doing well, that's good and dandy, but them it just gloss over Nintendo and said Nintendo Switch "will never catch up" to Sony. .. Makes the article not looking too good in my opinion.
Also more to mention, Sony didn't sell the most consoles if you add both home console and handheld consoles, I could be wrong here though. So don't quote me on this one lol.

Also when it comes to your trying debunk my stating of "Sony is not a market leader" still doesn't change the fact that the article is pretty bias in some way. Not to mention I don't see what you are trying to argue here besides of the "marketing leader", because there's more than that I just mention.
The article isn't talking about the handheld market because, frankly, it's irrelevant. Sony is absolutely the market leader, as they have sold the most consoles. End of story. To argue otherwise is misrepresenting the definition of market leader itself.

That's pretty much me with the Swirlix line, though it's more a complete dislike then hate.



Huh? XY's plot and villain took itself pretty seriously considering its whole thing was 'the world must remain beautiful and we'll kill everyone because people are squandering resources' and it was played straight. In fact that's probably one of its bigger flaws since it had a clear serious message to it with a villain who was an extremist that we were meant to sympathize with, yet it fell flat due to its execution and pacing being poor.

Also, I personally felt the opposite on their respective OST. Gen 5 had a number of memorable tracks for me like Route 10, 23, and Colress' theme, Gen 6 outside of a couple like Snowbelle City and Route 19 I don't have a lot of fond memories of it.
But it doesn't go to the extent of this.

-A child (named Natural Harmonia Gropius mind you) being raised by Pokemon and is trying to input morals into the audience with very weird cutscenes such as the ferris wheel and others throughout the game.
-A villain that wanted to manipulate people's hearts and manipulates a child to achieve his goal.
-The whole general themeing with stuff like 7 sages, Ghetsis music, and being like a religious zealot cult.

Like yeah it has weird moments too, but nothing is as over the top in serious for the series to me than Gen 5.

I actually agree and never entirely deny that(I already mention Sony sells the most consoles btw) , therefore if didn't you bother to check all my reedit previous long and messy post. ....
Tl;dr
I just think articles like this should look things at a bigger scope because again, article focusing on praising Sony and home consoles isn't that amusing as well in my opinion.

And this is from a website called "Business Insider"....

Last month, I had 80 orbs on the first night and got nothing until a couple days later. I have every reason to be paranoid.
On the very first legendary banner I spent about ninety F2P orbs going for Celica, but I figured Ayra and Ike would be neat too. Heavy Blade for Chrom and Ayra for the barracks.

Only thing I got was a really high pity rate. Never spent an orb on legendary banner afterward, and only did free pulls.

Late to the party, but Gen 2 is my favorite pokemon generation. Has much replayability with how the gen one gym leaders come back and are possible opponents, good pokemon designs, memorable characters (both for pokemon and humans), and significantly better balanced than gen 1. It was a great step forward for the pokemon franchise.

I don't play any of their games anymore, but gen 2 I have the fondest memories of.

I've been losing interest in the Pokemon games since Gen 4....I haven't completed a game in the series since then, and I've skipped quite a few. Notably B2/W2 and the entirety of Gen 7.


Whoa indeed.
If you ever go back to Pokemon, I'd highly recommend B2W2.
Probably some of the best games Pokemon has to offer, IMO.

Speaking of RPGs though, I finally got enough of a break in finals week to start playing Trails in the Sky.
So far, the battle system a bit difficult to get used to. It's pretty different to how it is in the ToCS games.
I'm not really at all that far yet, just at the farm.

I probably won't be able to continue playing until the weekend though.
First impressions are good so far though.
