Aww, I missed the gif posting party~ D:

Oh well. One more won't hurt. <3



I would not be disappointed at all if this was ZSS's new Final Smash. ¦D

One time, in Australia, we got this game called Super Smash Bros. Brawl or something, like, 6 months after it's release. It was awesome.
I never understood why Australia gets things way later sometimes. They don't even have to localize the games do they?

For some reason FalKoopa's pick made me realize I almost never get the pokemon version featuring the legendary I like on it.

Gold and Silver: I like Lugia much more than Ho-oh. I got Gold.
Ruby and Saphire-I LOVE Kyogre, don't like Groudon at all. I got Ruby.
Diamond and Pearl-I much prefer Palkia. I got Diamond.
X and Y-I like Yvetal WAY more than Xernas. I got X.

The only time I got the one with the pokemon I liked was Black and White(I prefer Zerkrom, I got black).

I'm not sure what's wrong with me. Also it seems I always end up with the game that gets top billing, though that's never been my reason for getting one.

Now, if you got Black 2...

Pure luck.

I was talking about the Game Corner on a different topic at TVTropes. I somehow got post 777 when specifically talking about the gambling part in itself.

its more that Nintendo of aus and nz usually sucks i cant remember the reason brawl was delayed here but i remember it was too long for a mate of mine who bought from the states then hacked his wii to play it. Since we also speak English no localizing unless u get restricted classification which smash or any Nintendo game never gets.

Australia gets the games late for the same reason Europe gets them late. Both are PAL regions, instead of NTSC regions like Japan and USA.

While I think it no longer applies nowadays (though I could be wrong), the fact those countries were PAL regions meant they had to change the consoles so TVs could display the games' image properly and at the right frame rate. PAL and NTSC are image standards for analog TV, after all. PAL has a frame rate of 50 Hz, while NTSC's frame rate is 60 Hz.

Europe also got Brawl 6 months after the Japanese release.

Black? Zekrom wasn't catchable in Black. Reshiram is the mascot of Black. Unless you are talking about Black 2.

Oh wow you're right. Not sure how I got that mixed up.
I stand corrected then. I have NEVER gotten the game with the legendary I prefer.

Because Australia is in the PAL region we have to wait for the European versions which need to be translated so many times. It sucks because we only need English and would most likely get games closer to the US release if we were NTSC.
Thankfully the last couple of years we've received some Nintendo games before everyone else such as NSMBWii.

I don't really have a favorite mascot, cause half the time I hardly ever use them.
Though, if I had to make a list...
Lugia
Groudon
Palkia
Zekrom
Yveltal.

Gen 4 and 5 forgot that you can make a Pokemon look badass without over complicating their design.

Also, ubers are for cheats.

Honestly I bet you all Nintendo is going big at E3 this year, I don't see why people don't buy it.

I think Nintendo will have a huge presentation planned. They've been so secretive. There has to be heaps in the works.
Plus they announced what would be one of their biggest titles, hoenn remakes, are hosting a smash fest, and are teasing huge amounts of wii u games.

Wow...

I just watched the first episode of the third season of Primeval.
And I never watched the series before.
I think I fell in love...

I hate the designs of all legendary pokemon. I take That back, Mew, Mewtwo, Jirachi and the Uno, Dos, Tres birds all look okay.

I'm more of a fan of the Weather Trio, Tao Trio, Mewtwo, Lugia and Ho-Oh. Yvetal isn't too bad either.

Luigia
Kyogre
Giratina
Reshiram
Xerneas (unless Zygarde is one, too)

I like a lot of Legendaries. Out of all of them, Heatrain or Protom are my favs. The lack if Legendaries in X/Y at release was disappointing for me.

I though we had already left these types of horrible editing back in the early 2000s.
Me too, but America as usual think that the average kid wouldn't even want to know about cultures outside their own or know what doriaki is. Changing the first aid into pizza was because of the religious imagery (implying that children don't go to church or know what a cross is. :rolleyes:). Everybody and their mother should know what chopsticks are, so why replace them with forks. And this is coming from the same company that rarely edited any Studio Ghibli film in the past.
