Pokemon Platinum Europe: Game Corner Gone!

[Mic_128]

Apparently for the Europe version they've removed the game corner.

That's pretty funny. The fact that they left it in D/P makes it even funnier.

Fortunately I've imported the US version.
Wait, now how can European players get the Explosion TM?

 

[The Halloween Captain]

I can't say they're missing much.

Most repetitive way to get a TM ever.

Although I am very annoyed that all the gamblers from Red and Blue were changed to "gamers" for the Fire Red and Leaf Green releases.

 

[Firus]

Wow, that's...slightly stupid. I mean, I'm a little surprised they had it in a kid's game in the first place (or what was aimed towards kids, anyways), but if they kept it in THAT long...

So, as WouW asked, does anyone know what this means for the TMs you get through that? Maybe they're available in the Dept. Store?

If they are, I envy the Europeans. I cannot put myself through that to try and get TMs. They even made it a LOT easier in this game, but you either need to be super rich to buy all the coins or you need to be super lucky. Even with some of the places where it like, automatically gives you coins, it's still not enough coins.
If they put them in the Dept. Store, all you have to do is be rich. Probably less than you'd need to be to get all of the coins.

Another thing I'm wondering is, what did they replace the Game Corner and prize house with? Did they like pretend a giant meteor smashed into that place?
(And would you be able to Rock Climb down and get Explosion that way? Lol, that would be funny)
And where would the prize TMs be?

Lol if that were true I'd get the european version just to see the game corner ruins

The Game Corner wasn't taken out. Just the slots are unusable. Every time you interact with a slot machine, it says "It's a Game Machine!" or on certain machines each day "Found [5 to 20] Coins! [PLAYER] put the Coins away in the Coin Case. " In addition, everyone else in there had their lines changed too.

No confirmed widespread news for the availability of TM64 explosion, atm.

With only getting 5-20 coins a day, whatever...

It's going to take FOREVER to get prizes that cost 10,000 coins

 

[karthik_king]

500 days lol

So.... you either have to buy coins or find them?! Lol. That's so silly. So random that they took it out for this one game.

 

[Darkslash]

Just be prepared that Europe will instead get an updated version of Pokemon Pinball. That would actually cause so much rage on so many levels.

 

[Wave⁂]

Wow, this is so stupidly funny. Way to go, Nintendo. You just destroyed one of the only things all Pokemon games have in common. Way. To. Go.

 

[Jimnymebob]

Has it been taken out of the UK version of it? .

The Game Corner was utter crap in D/P anyways.

I doubt we'd get an updated Pokemon Pinball when we are only going to get HG/SS in around 2011 probably XD.
