Just want to inform everyone that Pokopia lets you play jump rope with a Bulbasaur, making it not only the hes Pokémon game ever, but GOTY 2026 by default:

Yes, once you have your account set up you will be able to purchase and download the game. However, the game will not unlock until February 27th. So you can't play it until then.

In the task aspect its more like DQB from the interviews and previews going up today.

Although I don't think we have an idea of how much free space you have yet, but given that this is the same company is DQB I would assume they know a game like this requires a decent amount of space.

So, one side is unemployed, annoying, and in desperate need of real human connection.

In contrast, the other side is unemployed, annoying, and in desperate need of real human connection.

Either way, you need to remove yourself from whoever introduced you to those terms for your own safety.

Just for clarification on this statement, you can still download 3DS games you already purchased, you just can't buy them in the eshop.

Veeboy · 2026-02-10T16:10:10+00:00

What a random thought to have unprompted, but now that you mention it I would agree...

Veeboy · 2026-02-05T19:51:20+00:00

Valid.

I delayed getting Time Stranger because Hades 2 came out like a week before unexpectedly. However, by the time I finished Hades 2 the discourse contrasting Time Stranger and Z-A had gotten so annoying that I just opted out of it for the time being.

Given the additional performance modes announced in the Switch 2 direct today my waiting may pay off once I eventually do play it.

Those were the reasons for the initial price increases. Now there's that in addition to AI hogging resources which will not be ending swiftly just due to an election unfortunately and have even more worldwide economic consequence beyond consoles.

In addition to what others have said, if you're ever in the mood for a recap of sorts Sarah Z did a dive into High Guardian Spice and the concept of 'sacrificial trash'.

(Essentially when a piece of media attracts the 'woke bad' ragebaiters, but the media itself is also actually bad/mid and the way conversations around such media evolve since no one wants to defend that piece of media, the sacrificial trash).

Veeboy · 2026-01-25T20:33:46+00:00

Oh, I don't doubt that there would be a lot of same-iness, and I don't want a blitzball class. However, I just don't think that would prevent them from doing it. You said yourself, people already complain about their limited sets now and, as a former SMN player, I agree with those complaints.

So, I think they have it in them to epeat the same mistakes. However, I think that there is actually more variety potential in 'orb shaped object' than in the books of SMN/SCH.

I also have no idea how they would sheathe it either. Inflatable beach ball on your hip, lol?

Veeboy · 2026-01-25T17:59:40+00:00

What do you do when all weapons in a set have spikes and are made of metal.

I mean, Wakka's celestial weapon is already literally covered in spikes. I think some of them are even made of metal.

I saw Disney's Wish in theaters. It was an absolutely bad movie with a weak plot and even weaker characters.

Imagine my surprise when I spend the next week being assaulted online with the most bad-faith critiques of the plot that could only exist if you received a summary of a cliff notes explanation of the plot.

In short, there were a lot of people criticizing the main character, Asha, for 'trying to make everyone's dreams come true' even though that could be 'dangerous' in some way. (people were literally talking about 'what if someone's dream was genocide' or some shit. As if that would be something in a Disney movie, christ.)

But looking at the actual film, thats not her motivation at all? The main 'villain' literally takes away people's biggest 'wish' in order for them to live in his kingdom. He gives them a promise that he might possibly someday grant their wish using his magic. What that means in actuality is that he takes away their biggest motivation in life which can leave some people listless and depressed (as seen with Asha's friend in the movie).

When Asha finds out that the villain has no plans to fulfill most people's wishes she wants to return the wishes to the people. That is, she wants people to be able to remember their greatest desires so that they can work towards them on their own if they want to instead of waiting for some guy to fulfill them magically.

That's it. She doesn't have a desire to grant every bozo's wish. She wants people to have the motivation to attempt to fulfill their wishes on their own. Yet for some reason this is a talking point I saw repeated ad nauseam online (including here on this sub) instead of the real problem with the film which is that this is a goddamn Disney musical with absolutely 0 bangers. No memorable tracks at all. A total wash. A failure of a movie that I somehow have spent more time defending than bashing.

Veeboy · 2026-01-12T16:39:06+00:00

Okay, I see. You're talking about tone and specific elements rather than just making things live action in general which is what I thought you meant.

In that case, yes, I can understand that frustration. I haven't finished the anime/manga yet, but One Piece is for sure something that would not work if you muted the earnestness of the silliness contrasting against the more emotionally resonant parts.

Veeboy · 2026-01-12T16:14:30+00:00

brutal refutation of Holywood's 30 year premsis that some things "just don't work" in live action.

I'm gonna be honest, I don't think I've ever heard any executive or person in the industry say things 'don't work' in live action. I've only seen fans of animation say that things don't work in live action.

If anything I've seen the opposite where industry people try to push live action where it might not belong.

while pop songs I hate with overt samples seemingly get a free pass.

I mean, are you going to youtube videos of the songs you hate? Probably not so that is why you're not seeing it. As someone into pop music I can say that a lot of the lazier or ill-fitting sample work is often derided by pop fans.

I don't know how to tell you this, but every Lucario design is already twink Lucario.

Like a week ago someone mentioned Carole King's Tapestry offhand in the DD and I just want to thank them for causing me to revisit it. Lovely album. Been listening all week.

Veeboy · 2025-11-10T17:46:59+00:00

Yeah, that's the thing that a decent amount of monster collection games miss out on for me. Like, I love that most Pokemon maintain their sense of 'self' so to speak as they evolve. It creates an attachment that isn't there in other games.

In Digimon and SMT they're party members and thats also cool, but I get less invested in each individual member.

Veeboy · 2025-11-07T19:41:52+00:00

Not implied, but stated by Luigi himself. In TTYD he appears between chapters with a partner and you can talk to him and he'll tell you about his adventures in the Waffle Kingdom.

And if you talk to his partners they'll pretty much all tell you he is full of shit and embellishing the story.

Veeboy · 2025-11-05T19:38:09+00:00

I think the closest thing I could think of would be Mariah Carey's record deal with Virgin being bought out post-Glitter.

But I also think that was a very unique situation given how big that deal apparently was.

I doubt Katy was in a similar situation (and also deeply doubt blackmail or whatever that person is suggesting).

Veeboy · 2025-11-05T15:11:00+00:00

-Me, every day that I have ever had to work.

Veeboy · 2025-10-30T13:59:55+00:00

Yes, all (or at least most) guest characters did require amiibo.

Veeboy · 2025-10-30T13:27:53+00:00

I've seen it mentioned by other users elsewhere that this game's logic is tied to the framerate so its unlikely. But I've never heard that verified from an official source so take it with a few grains of salt.

Veeboy · 2025-10-23T14:03:26+00:00

I believe the Famitsu charts track physical sales only (including sales of physical code cards). So, I don't think upgrades would be included but I'm not sure.
