The stock market is for rich gamblers and the only thing the rich gamblers want to know is "did number go up?!"

Every year the same question is asked about how they can trust the board of directors (which includes dudes like Miyamoto) because they only have a couple hundred shares of stock. They seem to be shocked that anyone can be motivated by anything other than pure greed.

If the former, linky linky?

during a treehouse segment yesterday the director brought up that you'd only be able to bring a pokemon from pokemon home to sword/shield if it was native to the galar region

there's been a lot of speculation as to why this is but there hasn't been much more said since then

Articles like these suck rear end for a lot of reasons and one of those many reasons is because most stocks went down that day. It wasn't a great day for most public companies!

I did not play Fates, so I did not know this. That is more messed up.

Where was the video for 3 houses gameplay? I looked for it and couldn't find it, but I did get to see DQ XI and it convinced me that I need to get it, it looks amazing. Checked Ni No Kuni aftewards, and it looks like hot poo poo compared to it.

I'll stick to my plan though 1 voucher will equal Mario Maker 2 and Link's Awakening. I think DQ XI will be a good Christmas gift to myself, in the event I've caught up on all my games by then. I'm glad you can change your character's look. And just about everything else. Those QoL features are what JRPG's needed.

They've said not every Pokémon will be included in Shield and Sword saying that with now over 800 Pokémon and given how more detailed they’ll be in HD and how hard balancing 800 different Pokémon and all potential combos would be they’re using a smaller pool for this generation than the full 800+. It sucks but it was going to happen inevitably at some point that they couldn’t keep supporting nearly a thousand different Pokémon all at the same time

Interesting that they cite balance as an issue considering they've never once worried about Pokemon balance once in their whole lives before this moment

of the 800+ pokemon there are a lot of trash that can be easily culled from the in-game roster. there's a loving garbage bag pokemon and an ice cream pokemon. pretty sure poo poo like that will be cut before Nidoran and Geodude

the models from the 3ds games were intentionally future-proofed to be way higher quality than need be so they wouldn't have to remake models from square 1 every gen, so the answer can't be that simple

Pokémon balance is weird as for the regular game type advantage is the most important factor.

As in most units can one shot anything they have type advantage over

Oof. I kinda hope they're being intentionally evasive because the, "It's too hard!" argument rings hollow.

Like, don't most of last-gen's 'mons only have an idle animation and one other thing?

Also have they heard of inverse kinematics?

Was this a thing people thought was dead? I thought some goons were talking about the Grandia collection disappearing a while back, but apparently its got a demo at E3 so presumably its still alive and coming out.

I just made myself sad because realizing that 800+ Pokemon means that they could very easily fill up an open-world sort of exploration Pokemon game where you could freely run to each biome and see tons and tons of unique Pokemon and I know they won't do that

The important thing is Giant Quagsire is confirmed, so we don't really need the other Pokemon anyway.

Sun/Moon literally had the framework for this with the removal of Gyms but then just totally ruined it. You get to the second island and it's a big circle, with a forest, a volcano, and a lake. I started with the fire starter, so I said oh, let's go to the forest and do that one, get a cool grass type, then I can do the lake and then the volcano! So you walk to the forest and there's a man standing in front of a literal roadblock who says "haha you can't go this way yet because I said so! go to the lake first" like you're on some sort of supervised summer camp hike

Don't be sad. That game exists and I'm playing it now!...passively, via a 25 dollar device, while shitposting on the bus.

it's impossible to argue that a series that has a letter saying "not really related" show up if you bang your sister isn't a grooming simulator so hopefully nobody is dumb enough to try
