The Pokémon company announces that they’ve bought out Nintendo’s share of the rights to the franchise and from now on it will be multiplatform. How do you react?

Hedgehog kino imminent

You’ll get a scene of sonic flipping through the radio where the song plays for 5 seconds before Sonic says “lame” and puts party rock on instead

We're listening and we hear you. We've been planning a business update event for next week, where we look forward to sharing more details with you about our vision for the future of Xbox. Stay tuned.

A statement on Xbox’s future plans will come out next week.

If it gives TPC and GF more money and more time to work on their games, then so be it. Just make sure the games are good at least

“Sweet now we can go from Wii looking games to N64 games because Gamefreak will know even less about coding for these games.

Wait… would this mean there could be platform exclusive mons that other platforms could only trade for?

That one image of Saitama saying "Okay."

Literally this;

 

[TheMightyP]

TPC is a joint collab of Nintendo, GameFreak, and Creatures so who would even buy Nintendo's shares if Nintendo owns 33% of TPC?

Creatures?

I’m a Nintendo gamer so literally nothing changes for me.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Argyle might not return in Stranger Things 5 and that would be a genuine crime.

 

[TheMightyP]

Me when I play Pokemon on the PS5 and it looks and runs exactly the same as the OG Switch version

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I'd be more concerned for whether or not the majority of the Pokemon would still be returning for future SSB games than anything else.

 

[Hydreigonfan01]

Why are we speculating about something that is nonsensical and won't happen?

Because the fighter of 64 snakes brought it up

Zendaya is Sam

... probably

I tried getting into that show, but unlike Amphibia, The Owl House, and heck, tons of other Disney channel animated shows, I just...couldn't get as invested in it.

Even the more drama and story-heavy episodes like the one where Beta gets captured don't seem to have that much going on. The show's got good ideas and a great core concept, but the character and story writing just doesn't compare to those of most of Disney Channels' other shows.

I think every idea deserves a chance and that the show's got potential that it deserves a chance to realize, so it being cancelled after one season would be major bogus. But I definitely think it needs to improve on it's writing if the show's going to last and stand out on it's own.

Haven’t seen the show myself, but they can probably live longer if their Disney+ views are good

I stopped watching animated shows that try to go heavy on story. Too much for me to keep up and most are prone to getting cancelled or screwed over by the big wigs.

At this point it’s a surprise if a show managed to live a full life

I watch as Nintendo turns back time to keep that from happening

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Zendaya is Sam

And Jacob Batalon is Tucker.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Man I need more ARPGs with a battle system like FF7R and Persona 5 Strikers. 7 Rebirth comes out on PS5 soon but I'm waiting for that to come to steam, and I'm still waiting for other series to copy that battle system. Heck, even mainline Final Fantasy didn't copy that battle system. 16 didn't.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Most Geno fans don't actually venture into non-Mario RPGs, a lot of them are Millenial Nintendo Fans. You know the ones.

They sometimes don't even play Mario RPGs

He's done more for generations of people than the royal family.

King Charles: Has a mother who owned a concentration camp and a pedophile brother
Charles Martinet: yippee wahoo man who's also appeared in Dragon Ball and Skyrim

Sounds clear to me who wins

Well I have a whole series with a play style like Persona 5 Strikers....

Also Granblue Fantasy Relink, might be what you are looking for.

I haven't played Dynasty Warriors yet but I have played Hyrule Warriors. And it's... not quite what I'm talking about

Like In strikers they added all these extra mechanics for summoning the personas that remind me of 7R's ATB guage that it uses for spell casting and targeting special moves, not to mention active party swapping. And like... no other Warriors game I've played really has those kinds of mechanics.

They're fun, don't get me wrong. But they're not what I'm after. Plus.. like... Strikers doesn't really play like a typical Warriors game. It's a lot more like a typical ARPG than usual. Strikers and 7R are like... the action versions of a traditional turn based JRPG, and normal Warriors games are like... the action version of a Tactics game. And it doesn't really scratch the same itch, and can be kind of overwhelming.

And this is all coming from my own opinion playing both Hyrule Warriors, Age of Calamity, and P5S. Actually playing them. I'm not parroting some youtuber or basing my opinion off of gameplay clips. This is based on my own experiences.

Yeah I was mostly being a smart ass with that one, Strikers is probably my favorite version of the warriors formula from a gameplay perspective, That or One Piece Pirate Warriors.

My Granblue Relink recommendation is legit though.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I just saw an animated ad on Youtube for an adblocker. It even showed it working on a recreation of Youtube's own site.

You can't make this **** up.

Wait, what was this adblocker called, provided it is legit?

This is the funniest “leak” of all time

So Tom Holland as Link when???

It’s a good thing Butch Hartmans input doesn’t matter anymore.

Zendaya is Sam

You know that if they could afford her, it would 100 percent be Jenna Ortega.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Ahhhhh **** here we go #%!#%&# go again.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I'm more interested in Microsoft making Xbox original and 360 games being compatible with mobile remote play than seeing them porting their games.

Would Granblue Relink be kinda like that? Idk

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Tom Holland has some sort of announcement tomorrow…doubting it’s Spider-Man related, but Imma assume he may reveal something like Uncharted movie 2 (or he reveals something more goofy and unrealistic like he now owns Disney and Sony)

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Cant wait for Tom to say him and Zendaya are getting matried and watch all the straight men, gays, lesbians and Bi girls and guys in the world break down

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Second recommendation for that title. Time to check it out.

Still hope more RPGs ape this battle system cause it’s so much fun. I’m looking at you pokemon!

I'm biased cause I like the IP, and I don't got anything I can run it on cause I don't got a PS4/PS5, but from what I've seen it's good


Also I may or may not have a friend who worked on the localization team so I am obliged to shill it.

 

[Wario Bros.]

I've said before that a Nintendo employee is a regular customer at my job and I got an update

Spoiler

A demo event at stores start this weekend but he doesn't know what it'll have.

If I had to guess: we get that Nintendo Direct this week and something from that is our demo.

One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 is peak Warriors tbh
