Yeah, I found it kind of funny people were complaining about it having low-res graphics. At first, it seems like it may be bad, but then once you play the game I found myself saying "this is so much fun I don't even care!" I mean, the graphics are kind of meant to be cartoonish/anime like, it's not going for super-gritty details in the first place. Plus really, I think the game looks beautiful anyway. The things they pointed out seem SOO nit-picky now and they probably had to dig deep to find the worst cases (like okay, I get it, the tree trunks look a little muddy, but I don't really care all that much).

I might be ready to second this. While I loved Black/White, I'm only up to Gym #2 in Shield so far and it's been an absolute blast already.
