I tend to swing towards Donald the most but I really like all 3 anyway.

 

[Opossum]

Speaking of Donald, I finally got his Disney Infinity figure in the mail today. He's very fun to play, and definitely one of my favorites gameplay-wise.

 

[Aetheri]

I see you took the advice of me and Burruni

Eh...wasn't worried about difficulty...(though grinding is a pain in earlier gens) but I use Charmander the most and while VEnusaur is cool and all, I do prefer Blastoise overall so I went with Squirtle...

also quick Update...

nice mega evolution chart. not so sure about garbador but eh. also i think some gen 6 pokemon deserve megas at this point, but we'll have to wait and see.

also does anyone know when corocoro usually leaks? like once every mo th or once every 2 months? i'm hoping the next one will reveal the legendaries for sun and moon. maybe even the starters.

Garbodor was a more bold prediction...I feel like Game freak is aware of its lack of popularity with older pokemon fans due to it's design, and perhaps a Mega will shed a new light on the pokemon...I'm not a huge fan of it's design myself...but if a mega form can improve upon it then by all means...there are some seemingly random pokemon that got megas, like Kangaskhan and Beedrill of all things...though they aren't quite as disliked as Garbodor, but still relatively odd choices considering...

I don't think we'll see too many megas from gen 6 pokes and tbh at this point I'd say it too early to try to determine which ones will get them...

 

[Cutie Gwen]

And this time I know better than to get my hopes up. It happened before in December and i'm not doing it again.

I understand you're disappointed. But could you ****ing not bring it up all the time? This is like the fifth time you brought it up in a day. It's been over 2 months, get over it.

 

[Ura]

I was saying that to illustrate my point of not getting overhyped when it comes to things like these, I wasn't aware that I brought it up multiple times before. Maybe I do say it a lot but IDC really it didn't sit well with me and I still refuse to buy the 2 DLC characters. I'll try not to mention it all the time but if you don't like what I say, you can always feel free to just ignore it instead of putting me on blast.

Except if you're still whining about it you're the one in the wrong. It's MARCH already! And what are you whining about? You didn't get what you wanted despite the fact you already had your most wantedcharacter in the game. It just makes you come across as a spoiled brat

You complaining about his comments are worse, honestly.

Just let it go.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Just let it go.

When a certain other user kept whining about Corrin and Bayonetta over and over again, we called that out. I'm doing the same thing. Though then again I've been in debate with SMX before and couldn't take some arguments seriously so I guess I may have been harsher

 

[Fenriraga]

You complaining about his comments are worse, honestly.

Just let it go.

I'm not sure "worse" is the word I would use.

But yeah, not everyone is going to be happy with everything. On one hand, stop complaining about what's been done for months, and on the other, stop getting angry at people who just genuinely aren't satisfied with the outcome of things. No need to keep harping on these points, that goes for both sides.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I kind of wonder if we WILL get megas or if they'll just abandon it for a new gimmick in sun/ moon

 

[FalKoopa]

So I go to sleep and the leak gains credibility in the mean time. Hmm...

Anyone think he actually had legit info, but had to leak it in this manner (Windows folders) as text leaks are usually thrown out of the window(heh)? Just something to think about.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Did we ever find out if the Monster Hunter Generations leak was a fake or not?

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Monster Hunter Generations is completely legit.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Monster Hunter Generations is completely legit.

Was it registered by Capcom then?

Let me rephrase was the image of the file folders that listed it fake?

 

[Swamp Sensei]

No way of knowing though things look legit.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

For some bizarre reason I thought Dragonite was a special based pokemon when I was 10 years old. I guess he "Looked" like a special based pokemon?

But he's clearly physically based. I guess that's why Hyper Beam always did so much more damage with him.

 

[Schnee117]

things look legit.

Well I'm just going to substantially lower my already low expectations.

 

[ChikoLad]

This costume looks really funny. He just carries the statue.

 

[Deleted member]

The leak that is a pic of a computer screen with a bunch of windows folders that supposedly has the footage of the Direct is looking legit...
HOW?

 

[Radical Bones]

Is there a possibility that someone found out about MH Generations them faked a leak? The whole computer screen thing is so crazy.

The thing is... the leak is so convincing... it's minor and there's nothing ridiculous or new.

I'll be happy to see Federation Force tbh.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I can't seem to catch tauros

Then I remembered there is a variation of the "Old Man" glitch where you can catch Safari Zone pokemon on cinnabar island

Gonna try that

 

[epicmartin7]

So... apparently, Beyond Good and Evil 2 might become Nintendo Exclusive similar in vein to Bayonetta 2.

You can catch a level 250 Mewtwo there if you go to the unknown dungeon while doing the missingno trick I believe. Very rare, though.

 

[Burruni]

This would be like Shenmue 3 coming out of nowhere last year.

Except Shenmue got cut off because of Sega as a company going so terribly far under that they couldn't take the plunge on that kind of big budget risk.

And it'd mean that Ubisoft will have gone from one or two AC games a year and that's about it to to none in 2016 and making a game people have been asking for since the early-mid 2000s.

I see Mother 3 Localization happening before this.

Anyone know if 5.5.1 is the latest firmware on Wii U still?

Well the The Last Guardian existing and having a release date, Shenmue 3 and Final Fantasy 7 remake ALL HAPPENED ON THE SAME DAY.

Anything can happen and will happen. Y'all are too pessimistic

But Beyond Good & Evil 2 started development. Gameplay was shown. It's not like it's coming out of nowhere. The game exists.

Part of the reason it went on a hiatus was because Michel Ancel was waiting for the right hardware, as the Xbox 360/PS3 weren't powerful enough, and so he ended up working on a bunch of other projects.

In fact, Michel Ancel claimed to still be working on it this year.

TLG we heard of in 2012 with the team having difficulties getting it to transfer into PS4 technology. A 3 Year Gap.
FF7 Remake came as a surprise not because it was happening but because they skipped 5 and 6 to get it out sooner.

It can happen. It's just also something that's too out of character for recent Ubi for me to have faith in it.

Beyond Good & Evil was 2003 and was intended as a trilogy but cut short when the original didn't sell well despite how well it did critically. Since 2003 we've gotten nods from Ubisoft about it existing and otherwise waved off as we now move to the 4th console generation since the original came out.

Edit: If it happens I'll be just as shocked as if the rumor didn't come out so it's a win-win.

Uuuuh, we've gotten two full trailers and in-game screenshots actually, as well as confirmation it's been in testing and a bunch of other info.

Far more than a wink and a nod.

RIP premium. Back to being a pleb.



These leaks are starring to get more and more crazy with how many 3rd parties seem to be really excited for NX. Ubisoft, EA, square enix, probably a bunch im forgetting.


Going from minimal 3rd party support to everyone wanting to get in on the action. Either NX has some seriously amazing hardware or these leaks are utter crap. . .im more inclined to believe the latter than the former.
