I remember that! Good times! :D

I'm really hoping they don't do a BW2 thing again unless they make the games REALLY different. I don't want to dish out for two sequels that are practically the same as the first games. ;_;

...Isn't that what Yellow, Crystal, and Emerald were? *shot*




Jeez, Corey--you know everything about Pokemon. Does everyone remember back when we accused him of conspiring with Game Freak? xD I'm actually expecting it to be a Zelda-heavy Direct, and any Pokemon news will be surprising ^^'

@Speed: Ever since Mystery of Mew and Black and White, I've been hooked on the idea of the medieval Pokemon world xD We'll have to see, though :P They definitely need to flesh out Zygarde, though. Its concept is actually pretty vague to me ^^'

But you know, if we go under the assumption that they're trying to surprise us, then anything is possible. Like Pikachu in Space. Star Fennekin.


Actually, speaking of Star Fennekin, I wonder if we'll finally see something for Star Fax

You guys determined I wasn't, right? Phew. I mean, haha. Of course not! How silly.

Yes there would be Pokemon Z or any else name. It's always like this and i am very very very excited for this.

But that is expected, so they wont do it!

...Isn't that what Yellow, Crystal, and Emerald were? *shot*

Yes but at least that was only one game xD Which isn't so bad.

I'd love to see a game set in the past. I've always hoped they'd do a prehistoric kinda game with ask the fossil Pokemon alive and a bunch of other dinosaur inspired Pokemon. xD

Been at a nerd week for the last few days. When the guys found out there was a nintendo direct, we went to extreme lengths. Excuse the mess xD I would clean it up but I haven't been staying the nights haha

Spoiler:

[FedoraChar]

This is exciting! :D I imagine they'll have information on LoZ: Majora's Mask 3D, which is supposed to be coming out this year. Zelda WiiU news would be cool, too :D Maybe it's wishful thinking, but I'd also like to hear some Fire Emblem news, too xD

TODAY IS A GOOD DAY

Pokemon Shuffle looks really good. O: I liked Battle Trozei, but I stopped playing because I got stuck. Pokemon Shuffle looks easier (hopefully), and has new features like Mega Evolution involved. And it's free to play!

[SassySnivy]

No offense, but Pokemon Shuffle looks like a totally unneeded rehash of Battle Trozei. I see nothing different minus a few changes. And oh boy, they've fallen into the "DIS IS FREE BUT NO WAIT DERES MOAR U GOTTA PAY FOR **** IN THE GAME TO REALLY GET ANYWHERE AT ALL" pitfall. Let's hope this is the only freaking game that they do this for for a while. Christ.

Though it looks like the gameplay is more based around Puzzle League and Puzzle Challenge where you can't just freely move Trozei pieces around (and you aren't forced to move them all rows at a time either). I...don't have very high hopes for it because the in-game purchases thing is a REALLY BIG turnoff for me, but hopefully it doesn't disappoint. :|

No cost? Bull****.

Edit: But I DID just now see IGN's review on the NEW Nintendo 3DS. I'm a little bummed that only the XL version is available in the US--even though that was the version I was gonna get anyway--but the pros definitely outweigh the cons. IGN had the same grievances as I do with the regular 3DS, ESPECIALLY the stereoscopic 3D not quite being what it's cracked up to be in the original 3DS models. I know it's just a marketing trick, but...you know, $200 really doesn't sound like a bad price to pay.
