Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Wario Bros.]

The next Nintendo system needs the following to succeed: Full backwards compatibility with the Switch, enough power to please most if not all third party companies, and not name it something that would lead to confusion.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I just hope it's not outdated dog**** spec wise. Tablets are pretty powerful nowadays so Nintendo doesn't have much of an excuse anymore.

That's fair. I can respect that.

Switch is what, 6-7 years old now? That's old as dirt for a console in today's day and age, and it's definitely showing its age.

I know I know. I just... like I just got my hands on an Xbox Series X and it was HELL to acquire because of all the supply chain stuff. The only reason I got one was because I was working at target at the time and called my dad the moment I saw one in the display to have him come in and buy it. I don't want to go through all that again with a nintendo system which will be even MORE rare because it's NINTENDO, AND I'll be spending my OWN money this time because the series X was a belated College Graduation present. Like... can't they just push the Switch to 10 years old and give us some more time with it?

Not to mention all the backwards compatability stuff with the Switch 1 which we still don't know if Nintendo will even do with the Switch's successor.

Oh, some new datamined Pokemon Scar/Vio news has come out. Tagging Noipoi

Spoiler

Welp, the last update added in Pokedex code for the Snivy and Tepig lines.


Seems like ALL the starters are here now.

Oh ****, that’s really cool actually.

Glad we have every starter now. Though RIP to Patrat, Furfrou, and the monkeys.

They also added Dex entries for Walking Wake/Iron Leaves.


Make of that as you will.

Hope that means we can get several of them, including shinies (cope)

Thanks to a certain greedy asshole, you can no longer share game uploads directly from your Xbox to Twitter.

They can still be shared to Twitter via the Xbox mobile app at least.

Japan not being cultured

What are you talking about not being cultured, Alfred is right there

 

[Schnee117]

So yetyerday's whole SF convo had me thinking...

When did that new KoF game come out? I have hear zero fanfare about that game, I have seen like zero gameplay clips, I didn't even know it was out until Schnee said something about. Like I thought it would've gotten a huge boost cause Terry in Smash which is basically an alley oop for a slam dunk in marketing, did SNK **** it up or something?

The matchmaking has been broken since it launched and everyone is huffing the copium that the crossplay patch will fix it whenever that comes out.
It was a Day One Discord Fighter.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Nintendo made an oopsie with Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp- The game went through such a long delay that the My Nintendo gold coins for physical copies have expired and you can't redeem them.

I wonder if they'll fix that.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Fogado (who ranked 24th) isn’t in the Top 10 let alone Top 20…and Timerra isn’t in the Top 25…therefore it’s uncultured by default

 

[Shroob]

Thanks Wario I trust you implicitly.

Hey, Fogado, Pandreo and Amber at least made it on the top 25 so thats a win for me

 

[dezeray112]

I watched the Street Fighter 6 Showcase last night and I will say that World Tour certainly looks like a really fun mode to play within the game.

Thats ****ing hilarious to me for some reason.

Spoiler: Poké SV

Can someone fill me in on how deleting mon entries can mean them being added to the expansions later on? Also, was there any case in SwSh where a mon entry was deleted but still didn't make the cut in the expansions?

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Anyone else wanna talk DK/Rare?

 

[Wario Bros.]

I saw someone had a good idea on the Scarlet and Violet expansion: The Terapagos look alike could come to The Teal Mask to make buildup to The Indigo Disk.

Gives off a Galarian Slowpoke vibes.

Shigeru Miyamoto says there is “no doubt” there will now be more Nintendo movies.

Just a reminder, animated Book 1 Water had 20 episodes that were 24 minutes long. 20x24=480

Live-action Book 1 Water has 8 episodes that will be an hour long. 8x60=480

Same runtime!

still needs more Timerra…also I have never used Pandreo nor Amber

Kaipot Dudoit will now play David Kawena in 'LILO & STITCH'.

The recast comes after Disney uncovered racial slurs used by Kahiau Machado, the original actor set to play David, during the vetting process.

Deleted dex entries were done in SWSH, and from what I've heard, those with deleted entries later came back in the Expansions. Thus, if that same logic holds true, it should apply to SV as well.

Spoiler

Tl;dr

They're programmed in the game, just all the text that's supposed to fill them in was scrubbed out. There'd be no need to add these Pokedex entries in unless they planned on filling them in later, which is exactly what happened with Sword and Shield and its DLC. They added a ton of Pokedex entries before the DLC was out which were all scrubbed clean, but when the DLC came out, the returning Pokemon matched the datamined entries.


Basically, there'd be no reason to include these Dex entries unless they were going to be in the game.

Chris Sanders is in final talks to return as Stitch in Disney’s live-action ‘LILO & STITCH’ remake.

we finally caught a W.

 

[Shroob]

Also

In regards to the datamine

Spoiler

Alongside giving the missing Unova starters Dex spots, they also added one for the Oshawott line, which makes sense, considering it was the only starter at the time missing one and



Carbink


BRO YOU ARE SOO FORGETTABLE EVEN GAMEFREAK FORGOT YOU'VE BEEN PROGRAMMED IN THE GAME SINCE DAY 1

Ironically, he was the only non-starter in the datamine.

They basically just went "Oh yeah, this guy."

 

[Shroob]

Spoiler: Datamine

With Carbink and Diance both being in the game since literally day 0, I always hoped that maybe they had a plan for a Tera Raid event where a bunch of Carbink tera dens would appear and then like, extremely rarely one of the Carbinks would mutate via Terrastilization energy and turn into a Diance like its Dex entries imply.


But nah, it's just here for LOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE.

Mirroverse Tigger

I seriously love the designs in this game.



While I haven't played it myself, I have played Minecraft Dungeons and I really enjoy it, so it doesn't really shock me

Tigger looks like he about to lead the most fire dungeons and dragons campaign ever created.

 

[Hadokeyblade]

Hot take i would greatly prefer Capcom making a new Megaman RPG series rather than a Megaman 12 or X9.

 

[TheMightyP]

A Wind Waker movie would be the most gorgeous thing of all time, and it pains me that it's heyday has passed and we ain't getring it.

[Wario Bros.]

I'm happy to hear that Nintendo is pleased with the reception to the Mario movie to the point they want more movies.

They'll very likely stick with Universal but I can still see smaller films happening with their Nintendo Pictures studios.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Who do I have to kill to get Squitter in the next game?

Next game just straight up needs more animal buddy action in general

Agreed. I love the Animal Buddies. I wouldn't mind seeing new ones though, mainly new flying ones.

Yep, this has opened the gateway to more Nintendo game-based movies and most likely other video game adaptations. Crash Bandicoot? Spyro the Dragon anyone?

We're officially entering a new era of cinema.

It's been great while it lasted but GG to superheroes.

GG? Whatever that means, I think the better words would be "Good Riddance". Just a thought.

I think the problem never had been superheroes but the MCU in general. We have the Spider-Verse films and Amazon's Invincible. Those thrive to be their own thing rather then blatantly copy the MCU's formula which many franchises have attempted (Especially the MonsterVerse since KotM).
