Yeah, this'll probably get $60 out of me because of the nostalgia..

They retail at 39.99...are you buying half a game? :P

Australia.

Shit, I feel stupid, now.

I'm more interested in the improvements that will be made to the actual game. Remakes like these always come with some awesome addition in the meus or, dare I say it, poketech. Especially since they are the second round of games this gen. Maybe Pokemon walking behind you will make a comeback??  :o

As far as the interface goes...I'd like to be able to choose my Pokemon for online battles directly from the box like when you trade.

I have like 30+ EV train'd pokes and right now I'm limited to a six man on hand team and a six man battle box team. Which sounds like enough but not really for me. I'd like to be able to alter one or two pokes easily without having to exit the online and re-enter.

If I do that I may as well change the entire team. Or AT THE VERY LEAST give me a way to at least switch pokemon between the on-hand party and battle-box party. For a little more variety.

Also an option to turn "team preview" off would be pretty sweet.

Mega Groudon and Kyogre with Speed Boost confirmed.

I think I'm leaning towards them not being Megas just because they don't look different enough to be Megas, obviously. But maybe. Or maybe we'll get a mega rayqaza.

25
Yeah I've thought about those points too... Its possible. But how are you going to make Groudon and Kyogre better? They are the crux of uber rain/sun teams. Their stats are great too.


Maybe the nerf to weather was because of this.

Well that didn't stop them with Blaziken or Mewtwo.

True. But Drought and Drizzle are two of the best abilities in the game for a Pokemon to have. Although its possible that Gamefreak doesn't even realize this or their great stats because like you said... Mewtwo and Blaziken.

Megas also sometimes keep the same ability. Or at least Blaziken did. They kept Speed Boost because obviously they knew they couldnt top it.

Someone on Reddit brought up that maybe they're just lighting up because they do that in the intro to Sapphire.

Well, I was able to screenshot that. Here.



And, yeah, its the same thing. But its not lighting up exactly the same. Notice the absence of the markings on the head. But that could just be a stylistic/design choice. /shrug

His tail is a lot different. Either they're redesigning them (which in itself is curious) or theres some story reason for the difference. Or...its possibly stylized but GFs never really done that.


29
If they added mega Kyogre and Groudon they would have to be remake exclusive. I don't believe mega K/G are in X/Y.  Which is weird considering Mega Latias and Latios are in X/Y. Which leads me to think that there will not be megas of the two legendary beasts. Thoughts?

That's evidence against it. Yeah. I've thought about that. But Emerald had Rayquaza where R/S didn't. Platinum had Origin Forme Giratina and Sky Forme Shaymin. Black/White 2 had the multiple Kyurems.

But the counter to that is they've never really done that with remakes. FR/LG didn't have anything new. Nor did HG/SS. But Gen V didn't even have a remake duo so we know Gamefreak can deviate from the formula.

I don't know. They do look slightly different on their covers. Is Groudon's tail different? That and I mean...new Megas just seems like an obvious thing to add. But maybe not.

Hell, I'm excited just because easier access to Gen 3 legends and maybe we'll get a Jirachi event.

Gamefreak has lost the ability to surprise its audience.

Bahh...I'm excited. Can't wait to import my XY pokes over.

31
holy shit it's so different

I'm really stoked. Hopefully they will add more mega evolutions.

Guess I'll start the discussion off with this: Do you think the depictions of Kyogre and Groudon mean they'll have mega evolutions? Kyogre on the cover of the original Sapphire looks like this:



but on the new one he looks like this:



Slightly different. Mega Kyogre/Groudon confirmed?

Seriously...

Easy enough. I wrote a small change to the JavaScript that currently handles image resizing. We can deploy it anytime if people think this is a good idea.

I'm all for it. Noticed I posted some large pictures in CN and they were just oriented all wonky and a mod resized them. Which is fine but it'd be nice to have an option to resize on click.

Check out this thread on ffxiah.com (a website for auction house in Final Fantasy XI).

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/21426/pics-that-make-you-lol/1065/

Whatever script or code they're using makes the pictures automatically smaller but you can click on them to make them full size. Really nifty.

Raccoon is (probably, I dont read comics) a recognizable and somewhat-famous Marvel character.

He's not popular, he's actually very obscure... Not many know of his existence, outside hardcore marvel fans of course. That's why people are concerned, because Guardians of the Galaxy is relatively unknown. Damn, Rocket Racoon was introduced as a main character in the comics only in 2008 (although he's been around since 76, but as a minor nobody character), so that didn't leave much time for people to discover him and his team either.

I just don't think some Hollywood bigwigs were like...Rocket Raccoon is in this fighting game, lets put him in a movie. I feel like if that were the case we would've seen a Nova movie or Hawkeye or something like that before Rocket Raccoon.

I could be wrong, I dunno, lol.

Rocket Raccoon is a playable character in Marvel vs. Capcom 3.  The only game he's ever been in... Guardians or the Galaxy is announced a year or so afterwards. Coincidence?


Am I excited? Hell no. 90% of Marvel films are trash. I don't expect that to change anytime soon.

I think it is a coincidence. Now his inclusion in MvC3 definitely didn't keep him from the big screen, but I doubt it influenced it. Raccoon is (probably, I dont read comics) a recognizable and somewhat-famous Marvel character. Which is why he was probably put in MvC3. But I would think the real reason is that comic movies are huge now. Probably one of the biggest trends in movies in the past 15 years. Pretty much since X-Men. But they're running out of characters. They're making a god damn Antman movie for crying out loud. So its not surprising at all that RR is in a movie.

On another note, I had no idea about this movie. I'm really interested in them putting Chris Pratt as the lead. From the trailer...he still seems just like Andy from PnR. Who's he playing? Comic fans, does he seem like a good fit?

Entertainment and art should be free.

No it shouldn't. If someone is spending all their time trying to entertain others...then they should be compensated.

You're not even trying at this point, are you?

To be fair, that is an incredible album. Doesn't make the troll any better, but

You guys are fucking ridiculous. I can't even legitimately respond to a thread without being called a troll? What the fuck is wrong with you?
