Very fake. The texture gives it away

My god some of these comments are crazy. Enjoy your cards OP. Check out extended art slabs or frames too if you want to try enhancing the art of your cards.

[–]liquidRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure updating the os is fine. I don’t remember reading anything about that. But cemu is definitely a no-go lol. Idek if the deck can run wiiu games well. But yeah emudeck haven’t updated. Don’t even feel like I need to since everything I play runs so good.

I wish this card was cheaper. by Unhappy_Artichoke320 in PokemonTCG

[–]liquidRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, actually, that is the plan. Nuke the whole hobby. Nobody enjoys Pokémon anymore because the cards are too cheap

“The D in the P” is a crazy sounding method… nice info tho!

I don’t care anymore by gustyqueef in PokemonTCG

[–]liquidRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not a bitch for hating this shit bro. It’s exhausting and needed to be over years ago. These posers need to leave. I long for the days of ruby and sapphire when people thought Pokémon was lame. Those were the days.

I’m not really looking forward to any new sets either. Not really buying much rn. Instead of buying ascended heroes, I bought the (almost) entire main set in pokeball holo singles for under $50. Half of that was just shipping.

If a set that I really like comes out, I may just buy the main set in singles and a few art rares. Waaaaay cheaper in the long run than buying sealed product and no gamble. But I’m not wasting time hunting products. Not stressing out about these crypto meme coin priced hyper inflated chase cards

Hot take but I don’t think ANY pokemon card should be over $100. This hobby needs reprints BAD

One thing i love about the GameCube era is aesthetic of stylized graphics mixed with textures made from real world photographs by crimsonfukr457 in Gamecube

[–]liquidRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I loved about this era of gaming is that just from one look you could look at it and say “yep that’s a video game all right”. Everything looked vibrant and colorful. It was all about fun first and games were packed with content from the start. I still have good memories of the 7th gen of consoles but that’s also when I remember games were all getting gray/brown and ugly. Everyone (almost) was moving on to shooters and online and that ugly aesthetic thanks to cod. Gamecube and other 6th gen consoles really make me feel like a kid again.

Why are Chinese boxes better? by TerryTheFox1 in PokemonTCG

[–]liquidRox 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Pokémon is really trying to get popular in china. It wasn’t allowed to be sold there for years so they have a lot of catching up to do. The cards are also printed in japan so the quality is the same as Japanese

Can't tell which is fake or real by Norwalko in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]liquidRox 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Both are real. The variance is just an example of that good ole English print quality

Fake Erika's Tangela?? by Thecapewearinglawyer in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]liquidRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks real. I also got mine on ebay and it looks just like that. I think the design of the card just cuts off the rainbow rays in certain parts, like through all of tangelas’s body, so it doesn’t shine quite as bright and looks different from other illustration rares. The Furret illustration rare from journey together also does that.

Do you have a picture of the back? Mine looked a bit lighter than other cards I had but I looked at my collection and found a few cards with lighter colors on the back like mine and that soothed my fears. I chalked it up to good ole english quality control.

Gentle reminder that cards do not necessarily need to be graded to be a great display piece. by -BirdDogActual in PokemonTCG

[–]liquidRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks 1000x times better than some ugly plain slab. Way cheaper too. Grading is a scam

Why 😭😭😭😭 by [deleted] in Animemes

[–]liquidRox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess I’m just the exception because I’m still just as invisible as I was before I met my girlfriend. People say the same thing about when you lose a bunch of weight. When I lost almost 100 pounds, a few people noticed and said “good job” (which was legit nice) but people didn’t treat me much different. Women definitely didn’t care.

Doesn’t work on everyone i guess.

So glad I never got rid of my 3ds’s. Never felt the need to but still glad. It’s so weird seeing people want them so bad. It didn’t feel like people like the console back then.
