Yeah, Gens 1-3 on NSO would be dope.

A new game in that style though. Modern graphics and no random encounters.

Yeah, imma be real Chief. The idea of going back to bland, linear routes with zero room for actual exploration doesn’t sound appealing in the slightest.

Scarlet/Violet may be buggy as hell, but that’s a result of the game being rushed out to meet deadlines. There’s still an actual world to explore, I can make my old adventure. That just wasn’t possible in Sword and Shield, which was railroaded to frustrating degrees. I simply don’t see the value in regressing the series.

But please, illuminate me on how this might be a good idea. I’m legitimately curious.

Well I want a pair of magic money pants

And I wanted a dad.

There's always SwSh and Let's Go. SV is gonna be the new normal.

Not gonna lie, i thought Pokemon day was yesterday

Frick I've been so preoccupied with gender and family business that I forgot that aromantic awareness week started two days ago

Be aware of our existence or pay the price

The only thing I can think of is suggest fan games and ROM hacks.

They still keep the old world style.

Best I can do is three nickels, a kit-kat wrapper, and some lint.

Happy 30th Anniversary to Nintendo's most under-appreciated series, Star Fox!

Been playing Star Fox games since I was a kid. It hurts to see it in its current state, but I believe one day it'll rise back into the spotlight again.

And thank you to those who participated in the Star Fox survey from a while back. I'll be posting the results later to day in r/StarFox, so keep an eye out!

If I didn't know better I'd think you were sarcastically talking about the M. Night movie which had to have "Avatar" removed so people wouldn't think it's a blue people movie.

It's just what I think is more fun and what I'm gonna wish for. Not everybody needs to think about the "health or growth of the series" or how it appeals to the most people on the planet when talking about what they want to see. Some people do that. But that's not me.

Cobsider this: It would be the type of game Snake enjoys and everything must cater to her

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Microsoft president @BradSmi says Sony "can spend all of its energy trying to block this deal... or it can sit down with us and hammer out an agreement that addresses what it says it's concerned about, mainly the access to Call of Duty in the future."

I feel like I should check that out one day

Peak fiction

That part is not true. But I certainly would like it to.

 

[TheMightyP]

I mean we all kinda clown on Snake for her... unique takes but lets be real here if we were able to get our dream game specifically catered to us we all would take it even if the rest of the world hates it

 

[Noipoi]

Despite my innate desire to clown her at all times, I agree.

 

[Hex D. Jess]

I guess I just can't imagine how someone would want another linear Pokémon game after Sword and Shield and BDSP.

To be fair, the linearity was not the issue with either of those games

 

[Noipoi]

The 7-Star raids have been Charizard, Cinderace, Greninja, and Pikachu.

Aw ****

I can't believe Snake's ability is Illuminate (It increases wild encounter rates by 100%)

Bogus!
Why the Rhythm Heaven community doesn't make a Custom Remix of a Tokyo Mirage Sessions song?
Ultimate shame, it is a good fit.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Especially not when one considers the DLC.

In my case, though, my biggest issue with SwSh was the story, by far. It was actually intriguing up until Chairman Rose literally decided to risk starting the apocalypse on a whim.

****'s gonna get wacky in approximately 5000 eons. We gotta do something about it.

Alright, I'm perfectly willing to help you. But do you mind waiting for me to finish up this tournament real quick?

Hot take Itsukis solo song is the best song

It's in my Top 5, and it's the #3 of my list.
The #1 is Gime Me.

Finally giving the MCU a chance and catching up with it. Starting with WandaVision. Man what a weird show.
