Description
- Hi guysss ;v; When I heard about the new pokemon game a few days ago I majorly flipped out in excitement cause I love pokemon games to death. and I saw the design of the female protagonist and I just thought it was the cutest ever??? I loved it so much I just had to draw fanart *v* even though her official design artwork isn't out yet I tried my best to draw what I thought it'd look like based on the few screencaps and fanart other people have done of her.
Unfortunately I don't have a 3DS fml. I'm only interested in playing pokemon XY pretty much so I guess it doesn't really makes sense to buy a $160 console and pay $60 for the game just to play ONE game..? lol. I'm pretty bummed out cause I REALLY wanna play but $200+ to play a game fhjkdsfhdkaljhvd ???

I'm so sad about it being on the 3DS only. Time to borrow my roommates!

sobs understands your pain of not having a 3DS but wanting to play pokemon ;___;; Yeaah, it's not worth it to pay that much just for it though. DX
Ahh, but she looks super cute! I love the texture use~ ;v;

I feel pain, but I'm pretty sure it's not the same reason... >_>
I don't exactly approve of the new Pokemans

Well
I could go into a really long explanation as to why, but the short answer is that it's gone totally stale. They keep adding Pokemon, but the core mechanics stopped changing significantly around Gen 4.
I could be wrong about the game though, seeing as it's not been released yet, but the last 2 generations have been... disappointing :\

I get what you mean ^^ My fav generation was ruby/sapphire aha
but I think in a way maintaining those core mechanics are a good thing because it's still the same premise as it was when it first started out, which gives it kind of an sentimental charm...in a way? it's hard to explain aha. I just find something about familiarity really endearing. but I understand this is a personal preference and I can see why other people would want something fresh and completely new.
I guess we'll have to wait till it's fully released to get real feedback on the gameplay and mechanics ^^ I hope it's not a disappointment either.

It's not that I want something completely new, per se. It's just that, the Pokemon series as a whole is kind of basically just one game, but with each new cartridge they release, they're taking the old game and making it better. That worked fine to a point, but then they started skipping the whole "making it better" part and just keep re-releasing it with different dresses and new iterations of the same handful of Pokemon over and over.
With exceptions, of course. Pokes like Ferrothorn and Jellicent definitely add a whole new twist to the strategy.

lmao yeah I never understood the point of the third versions of the generation? like pokemon emerald or pokemon black/white 2 because it was the same game pretty much just different protags and a new legendary..?
and I'm gonna be honest I had to look up those pokemon cause I just pretty much stopped memorizing the names of the new pokemon after diamond/pearl lol
but I like how some stuff is different with the new regions? like how in black/white the bad guys want to liberate pokemon instead of imprison or how you have to fight the elite four twice before you can actually be league champ lol
I think those were some nice changes of pace ^^

I think it would be cool if you actually could become the league champ and have a little minigame where you have to fight contestants that made it through
Or if they actually aged Pokemon with its original audience, so instead of gearing the next game towards kids again, it could be geared towards people our age, and make it about murder mysteries or something cool like that.
Dude, Nintendo should totally hire me

but at least for black/white the protags were designed to be older than the previous generations? which was a nice change too
murder mysteries would be cool LOL but I can see how it wouldn't work marketing wise since the "kid" audience is still a huge component of their consumers

Which is a damn shame. Cartoons seem to be getting the hang of marketing to both audiences...
Like adventure time. Or that show with the whale and the maple syrup.

I got my 3ds from ebay and I managed to win it for 60 bucks. ^^

omfg wow that's a really good deal!! 8D good for you man!
unfortunately ever since the release everyone's been scrambling to try to get a 3DS now and the prices are slowly increasing >>;

You just mostly have to know how to work ebay, bid a lower price and let the other person think they won and increase your max bid at the last possible minute. ^^
π: 0 β©: 1
lmao I'm familiar with ebay but $60 seems like a really rad deal? like when did you buy it? before the news of the new pokemon or after?
cause if you look at ebay now all of the consoles are around the $100-120+ range
D:

well I have had it for maybe almost 2 years now.

omg that explains a lot LOL
but still, kudos to you for snagging such a good deal ^^

I'm sure a rom of the game will appear online soon after it's release, so you could always go for that. ^^

HAHA I actually looked that up a few days ago but I heard it's not possible or something to play 3DS games on the computer? :0 something about the hardware being a little different than previous DS and DSi versions so it wouldn't work on a computer.
but please correct me if I'm wrong lol I would totally love to be able to play it on the computer
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't know then...I mean I have a ds emulator, but I haven't looked up a 3ds one. I had just figured if they had emulators for the others they might have had one for this as well....maybe they'll eventually have one up then. ^^

She's so cute!!
And yes, i flipped out too when I heard it was 3DS only...
Still I am addicted enough to PokΓ©mon to actually buy one, but I dont have the money
π: 0 β©: 1
aughh I know how you feel ): I'm so tempted to buy it because I just love Pokemon that much...but...fkjdshfkljhkljvd
$$$$$$
I wish it was playable on the regular DS
π: 0 β©: 1
same!
Would it be playable on one of those simulator things you can download for your pc?
π: 0 β©: 1
I read that it's not possible cause the hardware for 3DS games are different from the DS Lite and it's playable ONLY on the 3DS because that's the only tech that can support the special hardware. ):

Blargh, that means id have to save up for an entire new console...
