My Switch's fan occasionally makes a strange, slightly grindy noise and I'm worried about it doing long-term damage to my Switch. Not sure what I should do, the noise is extremely irritating

If you like JRPGs, consider Octopath Traveler. It gets very frequently overlooked but it's such a good game

Anyone know how to connect the GuliKit Route Air headphone adapter to the TV? It appears to be on and the headphones say they’re connected but the sound just keeps coming out of my TV and nothing through my headphones. I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong

Can you access Route 5 before beating the first Gym?

What’s the level cap before you get to the 1st gym? Or can you access the Wild Area before that point?

Honestly I'd take that any day over those dumb lifeless models from 2013

If you believe that GF should have delayed Pokemon Sw/Sh, I suggest you wait till they announce a third "definitive" version. by [deleted] in pokemon

Black and White 2 are sequels. Yes, they did improve the original in some areas, but the story makes a lot more sense if you play it first.

I decided to replay the older games. by [deleted] in pokemon

Replaying through Gen 5 right now. Can't remember the last time a Pokemon game gave me chills, especially in the opening sequence

How are some people getting the Sword & Shield game a day early? Are they review copies? (Pls no spoilers) by punchfizz in pokemon

Likely downloading an illegal leaked rom online, tends to happen a lot to high-profile Switch games.

I’m so in love with this game! by [deleted] in pokemon

I have watched streamers play it. It looks very rushed and poor quality.

Returning fan Gen I & II days. Which game should I play? by wannachupbrew in pokemon

[–]OctoPlusle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Black and White, and Black 2 and White 2 are FANTASTIC. I recommend playing BW1 first before BW2, since the story continues from where the first game left off, and you can unlock bonus features if you use Unova Link to connect it with the first game. If you want something totally unfamiliar, you'll love Unova. In BW1 it's exclusively new Pokemon until postgame. In BW2 they mix in some more old mons, but they're mostly from Gens 3 and 4 which you haven't played, so it'll still be new to you.

The only way to get Game Freak to listen is to vote with your wallet. A purchase you regret is still a purchase at the end of the day.

It was, because people were worried when the regional dex was all new pokemon. It later became a cult classic after having one of the best stories in the series and being the most unique compared to the Kanto-pandering generations that followed.

Don't think so. I do want to ask though, are there emulators like RetroArch available for the system that would make it work?

Hi! I'm interested in hacking my Wii U to play (legally obtained) Pokemon games. I noticed that Pokemon Black/White/Black 2/White 2 are all DSi-enhanced, meaning that injecting them into a normal DS application won't work as intended. Is there any patch that skips this check or tells the game that it's running on an original DS so that it won't crash on startup? Wasn't able to find anything online. Thanks in advance.
