if you need to get the most out of your Switch... supposed you buy all Nintendo's own AAA titles (Botw, MK8D, ARMS, SP2, FEW, SMO, XC2)... that's 7 60$ game
Also you might probably already have a lot of games on Steam, so if it's like that you basically don't need to buy games on GPD Win 2. Unlike Switch where it basically just have downgraded ports and it is more expensive on Switch.
These seem bull**** to me, that's an argument not exclusive to a Switch but to every video game system. Including a PC, as after all, you're gonna buy more games on it right? It's a non argument because it favours nobody here.
Also how dare you imply Funky Mode is a downgraded port

Before I hit post I also realized what if the Steam games have DRM? Not to mention you just didn't provide an argument for the small screen meaning you can't be all too precise for competitive shooters because no, "Overwatch and CS:GO don't require huge resolution to be playable" isn't an argument because it makes Red's point all the more valid. If you're gonna get the competitive shooty game why play it on something that WILL give you a huge disadvantage?

I'm late to the discussion, but Gen V is tied with III as my favorite generation. It's the generation that got me back into Pokémon and it has some fantastic Pokémon, like Cofagrigus, Krookodile, Garbodor (not a joke, I really like it) etc. I'm a big fan of the PWT and Black Tower/White Treehollow, too.

Just beat every cup on the highest diffculty. Now all that's left are getting the movies of a little more than 1/2 of the pilots and beat every staff ghost to 100% the game. I doubt I'll be able to do those two things, though. Some machines are plainly terrible and Time Trials usually aren't my strongest point.

No, this does not give Marcus Sellars credibility.


And it starts at 10 in the UK so i'll probably miss it. Looking forward to the reactions. :p
EDIT: Hang on what rumour are people spreading now?

I also only have one prediction for the Direct.

I'm gonna sleep through it, then desperately try to catch up on it before returning to ten-ish pages of thread stuff I'll probably skip.

Brace yourself: Idiots with Pokémon & Super Smash Bros. for Switch blind hype is coming!
Honestly, the lack of any Pokemon Switch info is annoying. That said, Pokemon has their own directs, so it shouldn't be noted. On the other hand, SSB might finally get an announcement, but I just don't expect it at all. Fire Emblem info, on the other hand....

The Sushi Striker game from E3 last year is long overdue so they ought to finally come through with that in the 3DS side of things at least.

The winner of the last poll was the lovely Tiki. Anna did put up a good fight and had 50% of her total votes. Both Cain/Abel and Draug faired poorly, but the former did better than the latter.

Next up is the second to last Shadow Dragon poll, featuring most of the playable roster from Fire Emblem Warriors. Your choices are Minerva, Navarre, Medeus, and Caeda.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

There you go.

You: "Are we finally gonna get any news about that new Fire Emblem game?"

Me, an intellectual: "I hope Troll and I finally gets a sale so I can make my purchase at a much lower cost lower than its original price."

Hideki Kamiya retweeted the Nintendo Direct news.

Now before anyone gets excited, Kamiya is also known to retweet a lot about the Arcade Archives series so I'm betting it's more likely that.

LOL, you totally have a point... but you forgot one thing...
I wasn't really being serious or really try to make GPD Win 2 has a huge advantage over Switch... I was just having fun and I'm pretty sure Red knows that. Only my last statement is real though....

So, I'm gonna continue to make myself look more stupid when it comes to defending a mini gaming laptop
These seem bull**** to me, that's an argument not exclusive to a Switch but to every video game system. Including a PC, as after all, you're gonna buy more games on it right? It's a non argument because it favours nobody here.
True, but like I said, Nintendo Switch games/ports tend to be more expensive than other ports, while Steam occasionally has discounts.

Also, you can play old games the mini laptop, but..................this involves on something that we should not talk about here.

Also how dare you imply Funky Mode is a downgraded port
I never mention anything about Funky Kong LOL.
(But a bit true here, I think most people will agree that DKC Tropical Freeze on Switch is a bit expensive for a port, even though I personally like the Funky Kong Mode)

Before I hit post I also realized what if the Steam games have DRM? Not to mention you just didn't provide an argument for the small screen meaning you can't be all too precise for competitive shooters because no, "Overwatch and CS:GO don't require huge resolution to be playable" isn't an argument because it makes Red's point all the more valid. If you're gonna get the competitive shooty game why play it on something that WILL give you a huge disadvantage?
I mean... my laptop (Pretty decent one, and has the same RAM size as Switch) can only run Overwatch 30 fps (Higher than that my game will freeze every second), and chances are it will stutter or even freeze if you are unlucky... my laptop screen is big and has decent resolution but it is its CPU and a part of RAM that made the framrate bad...
So yeah, it is a bummer to have a disadvantage when the screen is small, but compare to framerate drops/lags, I prefer screen downgrade than fps downgrade since it's confirmed that Overwatch runs 50-55 fps on GPD Win2, that's pretty impressive for a laptop that is just a size of 3DS, and you can play it in the palm of your hand.

But in the end, it's just for fun Gwen, do't take it too seriously, and I know my arguments have flaws since... I haven't got GPD Win 2 lol, even though I am truly interested to get that mini laptop.

My predictions (Switch only because I don't care for 3DS)
  • Lots of Mario Tennis Aces talk and release date
  • Fire Emblem Switch
  • Bayo 3 release date
  • Some Splatoon 2 stuff
  • More outfits in Odyssey
  • Mario + Rabbids DLC
  • Xenoblade 2 DLC
  • A Labo trailer because why the **** not?
  • A reminder of all the ports coming this year
  • Diablo 3
Well... here are my "bias" predictions... (that could be totally wrong), I will have more info one some

  • Introduce Mario Tennis Aces new field, characters, and story mode
  • FE Switch, and according to the leak is FE meets Pirates of the Caribbean.
  • Moooooooorrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeee ports! The we may like or not like.
  • More info on ports like TWEWY Final Remix, Wolfenstein II, Dark Souls Remastered, Ys VIII, and... Blade Blue CTB includes FE and Xenoblade 2 characters as Switch only DLC characters.
  • Anyone remembered Travis Strikes Back: No More Heros?
  • Xenoblade 2 DLC shows off the new Blades, more quests, and tease a bit of the new story.
  • At least one unexpected AAA game port that is not Diablo 3.... I wish for Overwatch or Nier Automata.... or FRICKIN Dragon Ball FighterZ!!!!!
  • At least one exciting port... Smash 4 Switch! Ah.... yeah, I'm losing ideas....

You may be many things.

But considering the rest of the sentence, you ain't an intellectual. :troll:

I should've asked that question yesterday as well
BUT IM NOT BRINGING UP THIS TOPIC AGAIN.
---------------
We're talking about Pokemon gens? For me:
  1. Gen 7 (I loved most of the changes they made in Sun and Moon, and it had the best story imo)
  2. Gen 5 (Pretty much the same as above, but no HMs beats everything else)
  3. Gen 4 (It was a bit slow but otherwise very good. I appriciate it for being the first Generation with the physical/special split)
  4. Gen 3 (Good games but the lack of Physical/Special split takes a lot of points from it)
  5. Gen 6 (It was my first Pokemon game but aside from the introduction of Mega Evolutions it felt like a major downgrade from Gen 5)
  6. Gen 2 (Just hasn't really aged all that well imo and there's no reason to play it over HGSS, sorry)
  7. Gen 1 (Red and Blue are among the worst games I've ever played)
I wasn't taking the Pokemon introduced in those generations into account in my ranking.

\(°|°)/
Obviously 5 would be high for you since it introduced Chandelure.

DAMMIT! Why are they always showing Directs when I'm working? And because they give us such short notice I can't exactly reschedule....

I'm off today, all day....not tomorrow...

Since I am back from US, I can watch this Direct right when I get up and still have time to eat breakfast and go to my class...
Still not as intellectual as those with a cosmic brain, waiting for a new Last Story F-Zero.
Fingers crossed for XC2 info not revealing any spoilers when talking about any new DLC content during the Direct... since the last update is pretty much a spoiler giveaway already...for those who haven't play the game and saw the update are just not gonna look at Torna the same way anymore.... thanks Monolithsoft...

If it does happen I will lower volume and just listen to the direct and not looking at it.

Edit: Wait a minutes, this doesn't sound like a bad idea, if there is more info about XC2 DLC I will just listen to it and not looking the Direct.

I did say the Pokemon themselves weren't taken into account though, didn't I?
I love Gen 5 for more than just that
