discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

[bigusdickus233]

yeah ... I wouldn't emulate if I could avoid it, but don't think I'll be getting a new DS anytime soon. There's definitively a charm to playing on a DS that nothing can recreate though unlike most other consoles, some of that is definitely just nostalgia talking, but games that took full advantage of the hardware just can't be recreated anywhere else

For real. I think ds and early Wii were really creative with how they used hardware. I like the direction switch2 joycons seems to be taking, but I need developers to hop on board with the higher fidelity IR sensor stuff and motion controls

yeah for sure. I should boot up my wii too soon and play some games on there, I'm one of those weirdos who genuinely liked motion controls quite a bit when used well

Motion controls are peak! Early wii could be used as a pseudo workout, I loved it and the early kinect

 

[Dip!]

What's a mind goblin?

I may have had a WiiFit. Though I enjoyed Skyward Sword the motion controls grew bored after a while for me.

yea skyward sword was kinda botched imo, the addons for better quality motion capture were cool in theory but didn't really pan out, and then nintendo immediately dropped them. That's part of the reason I'm optimistic for switch2 joycons, seems like they're revisiting the idea

missed potential, think they could've done something so much cooler with that game than they ended up doing

I actually like the Imprisoned fight, but didn't they keep making you fight it over and over again, it's been a long time.

Oh yeah, now that I think of it, I wanted to share this with you guys. It's a huge template for choosing your favorite Pokémon by type, generation, legendary status, and so on. It has tons of options. I was filling it out with my brother.

Did you play every generation religiously to know that much about every Pokémon? I’m only really familiar with Gens 1 to 4, and kinda Gen 5. I’ve seen and can recognize some Pokémon from Gens 6 to 9, though.

I enjoy looking at the chart, but I didn’t really bother checking every generation, just your absolute favorites overall. Your picks are definitely more unconventional, while your brother’s pretty much follow the rule of cool, haha.

Yeah missed potential for sure, and it was even weirder because nintendo was known for pushing the envelope with their mainline games more than the other big names, odd they played it so safe

Im not smart enough to make mods hahaha

You and me both. Messing around in Bethesda Creation Kit is one thing, but if there's not a GUI to do it, it just becomes magic. No clue how to even attempt.

It's because my brother chooses purely based on design—designs that could be classified as “cool” or “edgy”—and while I also choose based on design, I also choose based on experience. I always play different Pokemon games—both official and fan-made—and I always use, or at least try to use, different teams, always bringing Pokemon I haven’t used before. That’s how I’ve grown fond of many Pokemon over time, which is why my selection is more unusual and doesn’t seem to follow any logic.

For example, Ribombee is on the list because I like its design and because in Ultra Moon, my Ribombee was an absolute world destroyer and swept through teams like it was nothing.
Ariados in Pokémon Z was my team leader; it would come in, set up Sticky Web, and let me control the pace of the battles.
Galarian Rapidash isn’t very popular, but in Pokémon Unbreakable Ties, mine let me one-shot a Serperior with Contrary and leave a Tyranitar half-dead.

I fell off of mainline pokemon after gen 6 but Champions has been kinda cool to watch, might get into that. Comp pokemon's always been a little too out there for me but if training's as easy as it seems to from what I've seen

It's a great game for getting into competitive Pokemon. Better than any other official game.
