The one time reading Twitch chat made the stream somehow better. And the translator losing it for some reason.

 

[Ura]

I mean I wasn't really expecting any significant announcements so I guess this thing was meh. I'm just looking forward to seeing the designs in that Trainer mobile game as well as the characters voice acted.

And lol they kept the "Bonjour" line Green/Blue had in the Gen 1 games. That's a nice touch.

 

[Guynamednelson]

wtf y they not announce grookey in smash?

 

[Zinith]

The big takeaway from tonight's conference:

"I know!! I'll use my trusty frying pan...

"as a drying pan!!!"

 

[Teeb147]

The pokemon sleep thing was way too vague. Can the device at least act as an alarm clock with pokemon sounds?

 

[Z25]

Oh no Pokemon Masters actually looks cool.

Please don't be a gacha. Please don't be a gacha. Please don't be a gacha.

...It's made by DeNA. It's going to be a gacha, isn't it.

The game was leaked a month ago. It’s a gatcha

 

[Ura]

Where's Animal Crossing?

Said literally every AC fan replying to Nintendo's Twitter account.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

How the **** are people mad that they didnt get what they wanted at a Business Strategy press conference

 

[Z25]

The only thing I really expected was rumble rush.

I guess that’s launching worldwide with the direct next week?

 

[Ura]

Memers need to get to work. This presentation should give them material for months at least.

 

[Noipoi]

I'm not upset at all though, the info I want is coming next week. I just thought the sleep stuff was funny.

Bara Brock tho

 

[QuiqueST]

Pokemon Company HQ be like

 

[ZephyrZ]

Prediction: Pokemon Masters is a gacha game, but instead of pulling Pokemon you pull trainers, and they'll be paired with a partner Pokemon.

Please make Youngster Joey a 5-star pull.

I saw people going " that was utter trash" Like they expected something huge pfff

 

[Teeb147]

Nintendo's so weird sometimes.

well at least i didnt have any expectations. june is where it's at ;p

 

[Dyllybirdy]

So excited for the new Pokemon game!

The plan is to get people to sleep early enough. Then, a wild

appears, and it proceeds to eat your dreams. They want to feed the Pokémon.

 

[PLATINUM7]

My friends call me grandpa because I sleep a lot.

I can't wait to become a Pokemon Sleeping Master.

 

[Ura]

Please make Youngster Joey a 5-star pull.

The only sensible take.

Watch this starting at 6:50.

Someone leaked it to ruffled rowlit

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Twitch chat says that after literally everything

Honestly, you know what. if they wanted to help health, breathing is one of the most important things to look at.

Altho i dunno how they'd make a game of it. then again im not sure there's much to the sleep stuff.

 

[Dyllybirdy]

So, from what I've gathered:

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

Pretty solid press conference. I'm not as interested in the mobile stuff, but I figured Pokemon Home or at least Bank for Switch was coming. It only makes sense.

I think it's pretty cool that you can download it onto your phone as well, and that you can trade Pokemon through your phone. That's super cool.

Now all we have to do is wait until next week for that sweet, sweet Sword & Shield news. Can't wait!

 

[Knight Dude]

I like that new design of Red more than Pokemon Sun's. But I wish Sugimori drew more prominent noses from time to time.

EDIT: Also Brock of the North Star's dope.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Mario and Pokémon (Nintendo overall) can’t catch a break from the roasts today

 

[ZephyrZ]

Hm...

Okay yep, I buy this one. It already got a few things right and the next other few things seem pretty logical based on what we've seen so far.

Gacha it is. Shoot.

 

[Zinith]

As if Brock wasn't memed enough already...

 

[Iridium]

I'm not ready for the endless wave of Brock fanart from this all. The devs knew what they were doing.

 

[Noipoi]

Now all we have to do is wait until next week for that sweet, sweet Sword & Shield news. Can't wait!

SWORD/SHIELD HYPE

It's gonna be the slowest week ever tho lol

It's cool and all, but I was hoping they'd step away from pokemon being easy to hack. This is all just going to make it so much easier. Guess people will just have to take pride for things they actually did and not care too much.

 

[Opossum]

I take it Pokémon Sleep is probably gonna be the spiritual rebirth of the Vitality Sensor Nintendo wanted to make all those years ago and then never talked about again.

PokéGacha featuring trainers. Hell yeah I'll try that. Give Looker his dead Croagunk so I can cry.

Being able to trade in Pokémon Home from a smart phone is actually huge news. Like, that kinda blew me away.

Lol at how little they talked about Detective Pikachu 2.

Snorlax in Smash as a playable character should be a thing.

I swear i'll go to a Pokemon center one day

Back in 2006 I went to the NYC location for the big tenth anniversary event. Great time there that day. Of course, that location became the Nintendo World Store that we know today not too long after.

 

[Mythra]

>Pokémon GO the **** to Sleep

Reminded more of Iwata's Quality of Life stuff, especially since the only thing announced for it was a sleep sensor device.

Yeah, I'm really hoping we get the cover legendaries or even the starter final evolutions, but for now I'll probably keep my expectations in check.

I'm glad to see you're still around.

Eh, well you can't always control what other people do. But I will say at least they've made it so you can't so easily load Pokemon you hacked online or transfer them to other games, or at least it's been that way sometimes.

I remember when I used an AR and the game was basically, "No, **** you" when I tried to transfer one of my shiny Salamences that I had caught. Good times.

 

[ZephyrZ]

Overall I'm pretty satisfied by the new conference.

Pokemon Bank or a successor was pretty much a guarantee going forward, but it's still really nice having an official confirmation. Being able to access it from you phone and trade through it also seems really nifty.

Pokemon Sleep is....eh? I might buy the plus+ anyway though because I'm a bit of a pokemon drone. Really skeptical that it'll do anything to improve my sleep quality though.

Pokemon Masters looks like something I'm going to burn a lot of time (and hopefully not money) on, at least for it's first year or two.

The lack of Sw/Sh news doesn't surprise me in the slightest, since we've got a direct coming soon. They've got to show something interesting during that.

As if Brock wasn't memed enough already...

 

[ZaneHitsurugi]

Blazblue > GuiltyGear

fight me

Blazblue hasn't been good since Chronophantasma Extend.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

So.... nothing interesting happened at the conference I take it? I'm still gonna test my live reaction thing with the pokemon direct on the 6th.

 

[Idon]

I hope next Smash uses Pokemon Masters Red instead of whatever that duck-faced thing we got in Smash was.
