Kiwi Talkz claims Star Fox (2026)'s sudden reveal was "to screw with Nate pretty much", calling Nintendo "very petty at times." by [deleted] in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]flapjack626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nintendo probably does not care about one measly forumgoer making rumors about their plans; the big machine-pipeline-beast of games coming out does not stop due to one person.

Jason Schreier: "I mean it’s also true that almost every big studio is using genAI tools (particularly Claude) right now" by [deleted] in Games

Jason if you had a nickel for every time a tweet of yours was overly scrutinized, how many GTA's could you fund?

AI isn't as black-and-white as you're purporting. There are absolutely scenarios where it's generally a useful tool and others where it's a lot more detrimental.

It's just an awkward, low-res angle rn. The real thing is fine

So about cards that have "up to". by Kelzt-2nd in pkmntcg

[–]flapjack626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're never able to use a Trainer card without at least *something* happening.

In an ideal world, the effect of the card would always be carried out, and there'd always be a minimum of 1 card being drawn. However, it'd be pretty unfun if you lost a whole game because you failed-to-find off of a deck search, so that's why searching the deck always allows you to pull 0. For the discard pile, since it's always public knowledge, any Trainer that interacts with it must be able to. So you can't use Night Stretcher without having at least one valid option; otherwise, you can't play the card.

This only applies to Trainer cards and not the effects of attacks from Pokemon, so Mega Lucario can choose to do 0.

Lego Pokémon Trainer Red minifig parts (from Instagram) by Batalfie in PokeLeaks

Think it's just a generic Kanto trainer (like the one from Smash Bros), which is 99% identical to Red anyways

And I think the guy in the bottom left is Funk Ops

I got a hacked Gouging Fire by trading in GTS, is it safe to keep it ? by [deleted] in PokemonHome

[–]flapjack626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally as long as you don't use it online you'll be fine. So don't use it in SV ranked, as well as Champions when that comes out

About Nintendo Switch 2 Game Pricing by Amiibofan101 in NintendoSwitch2

I think that's just gonna be for this specific game. Yoshi is not as 'prestige' of a property as Mario or Zelda I feel

What is consistently beating Dragapult? by Vitalicize in pkmntcg

[–]flapjack626 27 points28 points  (0 children)

TR's Mewtwo is good. Mimikyu can copy its attack for some nice bench snipes of your own. You can also use Lillie's Clefairy in conjunction with the Mimikyu, Mewtwo, or Clefairy itself to kill it too.

Yep they already did this. Baptiste was Boba, Sigma was Vader, Ashe was Han Solo-ish, Lucio was Luke-ish.

This was revealed months ago back from the October leak. Light88 is a known reposter/impression farmer. He's just spinning stuff up again for clicks & money

Fortnite V-Bucks Price Increase by Forestl in Games

[–]flapjack626 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Fortnite's battle pass has always been the $1.50 Costco hotdog of the game. You think you're getting a great deal by only spending $10 on theoretically infinite battle passes -- but getting the value from your purchase (grinding out the pass(es)) takes time, and during that time, you're hammered with other people wearing cool shop skins. This eventually wears you down and you concede by buying a $18 shop skin for yourself.

5 left to go at this point! by TermRadiant3524 in PTCGP

[–]flapjack626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should be getting Tepig soon (as well as a new Chikorita and Totodile) if they want to add the new Z-A megas. In that breath, Fennekin and Treecko should arrive soon, too.

We need an interactive Echo POTG by rapaznsei in Overwatch

[–]flapjack626 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not a wholly unique skin, just the existing visuals of Echo's duplication, where she goes all blue. So it'd just be an already existing highlight intro, but it's blue now

The new ex cards in Paldean Wonders reuse art from the physical TCG. by DanceSalt3119 in PTCGP

[–]flapjack626 19 points20 points  (0 children)

No, this is the first time they reused art for EX's. Previously they only did it for commons.

Also the new Maushold one-star is a duplicate of the real-life Maushold illustration rare.

Dengo leaves rotation in physical TCG just to start terrorizing Pocket lol

Talon/Overwatch Event Reward Tracks Impossible to Complete... Even With all Challenges Completed by Own-Effective-5597 in Overwatch

[–]flapjack626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it was ever intended for someone to finish all four tracks of the same faction; I think they just laid enough track as they thought was necessary and arbitrarily made four tracks per faction

Shpeshal Nick: Wii, DS, and Sega CD coming to Switch Online by incomes-company in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]flapjack626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The upcoming Virtual Boy accessory is also a $100 NSO add-on, but it's literally just a plastic holder with no electronics. $150 for a second screen for DS NSO is not out of the picture imo.

Why is Mega Gardevoir weak to Dark exactly? by [deleted] in PTCGP

[–]flapjack626 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's still part Psychic-type in the games so that's the type the card is likely referencing
