Anyone here hyped?

Anyone here hyped?

hyped for what? vaporware?

Nope. Cutscenes every 5 steps in Sun and Moon killed the series for me.

Not really, since it'll just be the same shit as always with some new gimmick.

I want a Pokemon game that plays like Dragon's Dogma.

Not hyped per se but I'm looking forward to it. People turned heel on Sun and Moon for its emphasis on cutscenes which kind of baffled me. Pokemon is already a turn based RPG so some more elaborate and well-directed storytelling doesn't really hurt it for me. First time I went through a Pokemon story and felt like it was something that could entertain kids rather than bore them. Even Gen 5 couldn't get its story straight and basically gave up on the story emphasis in the sequels. I saw it as a huge step up from Gen 6, though still not as good as Platinum or HGSS.

Still waiting for Switch emulator

3D Pokemon was a mistake.

Yeah.
But I still miss sprites. Call me Grandpa if you must.

The first unhacked Pokemon game

>people got so assmad that US/UM was for the 3DS that they had to put a short video saying they were working on something for the switch

>People got mad there wasn't a S/M port
>People got mad there was a port of Pokken

no. i've never cared for pokemon or the people that play it.

not after the utter shitshow that was x/y and oras
sun and moon was half an inch in the right direction and another mile in the wrong
pokemon would be dead if the game was marketed solely to older fans who grew up with the originals

>pokemon would be dead if the game was marketed solely to older fans who grew up with the originals
Then why is pokemon not dead after the sheer amount of gen 1 pandering in the past 2 gens, origins, and a reboot movie?

>he thinks better hardware will solve all the problems related to Gamefreak's ineptitude

see you in 5+ years

I might be able to enjoy Pokemon more now that I can play it on a TV.

This. I was close to throwing my 3DS at the wall. The scenes involving the little girl with the white dress were especially cringeworthy.
The worst part is that they always repeated the EXACT SAME THINGS for several cutscenes in a row (and several times per cutscenes) to make sure that the most retarded children would get it.
10/10 mad, you really turned the knife user

i mean, i'll play it, i've been playing the series since the day of the first game's release
but nah i'm not really hyped for the feature cut and nonsense side additions that happen with every new generation now

>it comes out
>it's a fully 3d over the shoulder/third person pokemon game set in a style similar to the Origins anime
>You wake up in a huge house, get a call, and head out into a massive town to find the professor
>pick a pokemon
>have to camp spots, with crazy turn based battles in 3D
>full 24/7 clock, with different pokemon at different times, days, and hours
>all the areas are accessible, all the way back to kanto, you can go in reds old house, it's full 3d
>all the regions have wildlife, plants, flowers, etc. with seasons, rain, etc.

you don't know what you want slut.

No im not hyped. Gamefreak has YET to redeem themselves from the utter shitshow that was GEn 6 and the handholding garbage that was Sun and Moon.

Unless USUM is at least Emerald tier (which it wont be), No.

>Then why is pokemon not dead after the sheer amount of gen 1 pandering in the past 2 gens, origins, and a reboot movie?
because it's pokemon
children will buy it in droves and disgruntled and displeased fans will STILL buy it in droves
it's one of those franchises the devs could do anything with and it will always have good marketing, a younger audience, and people who refuse to stop buying the newer installments
not trying to imply i didn't have fun with xy, oras and sun and moon but it was still awful after the high quality of black/white 2, HGSS and 50% platinum

It made sense if it was made by someone such as Level 5 rather than Game Freak until you posted they usual 'all regions' shit.

No more gen 1 pandering please. I'd appreciate a soft reboot with new pokemon only like gen 5.

Sure.
I skipped Sun and Moon so all those Pokemon are new to me.

For Pokemon 8 I do think they need to do at least 100 new Pokemon before counting new forms. Keep legendary Pokemon to a minimum like in X/Y (max it out at 5 or 6). Whatever they do, no demos to datamine, and don't announce more than 40 of them before release.

Add in some new online modes like invasions and ranked 6v6 singles without Team Preview and I'll play it online every day (I used to play Showdown nearly every day on the treadmill).

>pokemon would be dead if the game was marketed solely to older fans who grew up with the originals
>pokemon is doing that, so why isn't it dead?
>because it's pokemon

Oh boy, can't wait for Pokemon Battle Revolution for Nintendo Switch(tm)!

>tfw transfering your pokemon to the switch game will be a complete pain in the ass

>le all regions meme
>le open world meme

truly epic my man
I hope you'll be a game developer one day.

It's 100% gonna require Pokemon bank.

They already said Bank is their long term transfer solution. Thank god for that as I always got lazy transferring from gen 3 to 4 then 4 to 5.

Why? Its just going to be more Gen 1 pandering to attract fucking normies who don't play anything Pokemon related outside of GO anyway. SM was the last straw for me. I'm so fucking sick of Kanto.

I too enjoy paying 5 dollars every year for them not locking me out of accessing my Pokemon.

Pokemon Angel/Demon with a slightly more edgy theme when?

There's nothing to be hyped for yet. Ask me again in two years(?) when Game Freak has maaaaybe put out some first look trailers.

Fuck sun moon was bad. Cutscenes of that nigger laughing and waving and waving were the most cringy shit in any game period

No.

Cheaper then buying a second system.

Same, I dunno who is playing Pokemon for a mechanical challenge, I just want to pet weird monsters and fight evil with friends

Will flygon get a mega in this though?

kek no

>Multiplayer, the only reason I keep buying pokemon, will be behind a sub fee
Yeah, hyped as fuck

I just want to be able to change background during online battles. With HD Pokemon models will be alot more fun to battle

Gamefreak game design and story is very poor. Hope they bring back gyms

It's 20 for a year you poorfag

Don't forget your Pokemon Bank fee if you want to use your old Pokemon. :^)

I'll subscribe too it as long as nintendo give us other online games to play.

After Game Freak finally did it in SM, I'm baffled as to why it took them 20 years to design more single player-oriented 'boss' encounters like the Totem Pokemon. They were probably the most enjoyable new thing in those games. They didn't even need to upend the basic rules of the combat system, they just gave reasons for why Totem Pokemon get boosted stats and gang up on you 2v1, and boom, there it is. I'd call it genius... had it happened a decade ago.

>I just want to be able to change background during online battles

You won't ever see them anyway since the Tapus of healthy meta are gonna shit out their terrain all the time.

>SM-like trash but on the switch
No

They should put some diffectly into games

The kids who got 3ds are getting priced out with switch. Teens and 20-30s buying it

Also its 59.99. Not 39.99 anymore on top of that it's paid online. So really should target older fans unless Nintendo makes cheaper switch revision

Aren't SuMo the most well-received Pokemon games of the last few years? I haven't played this new gen, but I'm wondering why most of Sup Forums shits on them, and if it's just contrarianism.

They aren't but they sold pretty good because all the Pokemon GO morons pre-ordered it when that was hot and then forgot about the games when they actually came out.

>hype for the start of a generation

I mean, I guess getting a new batch of Pokemon will be nice but the games themselves are guaranteed to be mediocre.

XY has the highest metacritic score in the series if I recall.

>getting hyped for pretendo shit

When are they gonna fire gamefreak and replace them with a more competent dev team?

i don't get hyped for shit that is years away
