Ah! A new addition of ‘PJ Plays’, the long neglected column that unceremoniously disappeared after Pokemon Mystery Dungeon bored the hell out of pokejungle! It has returned, however, since I have obtained a Japanese 3DS (beautiful flame red, no cost to me as my boyfriend gave it to me) and a copy of Pokemon Rumble Blast. Right now I’m in the third town, West Town, with the first two being Toy Town and East Town. You can see my Leavanny at the fountain above.
I’ll get more into the game in the next article, but for now I just wanted to share a few thoughts in a bullet’d list (mostly because I have a sinus infection and need to wake up in 6 hours for work):
- The 3D effect is not overly strong
- Don’t get attached to your toys, you’re constantly replacing pokemon
- Some toys have special bonuses, such as regenerative HP
- I haven’t bothered to really understand the storyline
- Lack of multiplayer seems like a real missed opportunity in this game. Srsly.

Doesn’t sound like a game I wanna play xD
I soooo wanna play this but have to wait until December (I live in the UK)
I have watched most of the walkthrough of this game via youtube (I dont really carea about spoilers…doesn’t bother me) and this game looks incredible (again IMO)…
I also love how Audinos can heal you with heal pulse… can really save you!
What about the StreetPass functionality and local wireless 2-player co-op? I was a bit disappointed when I found out that it wasn’t going to be 4 player online, though. >_<
that is a sexy color 3ds

To clarify, the 3D effect is actually fairly strong…you can see it well when you switch, with the key that winds the Pokémon popping out. However, generally the 3D works as if you’re looking down on toys on a table, which fits perfectly for this game
3D effects mostly rely on the person playing the game. For example, I always see subtle 3D, no matter how strong the game or the slider sets it.
we just had an earthquake! stupid dugtrios.
don’t make fun of earthquakes there may be someone whose family vanished because of it.
Lack of multiplayer? What are you talking about? There is a coop mode which even gives you the benefit of befriending defeated Toy Pokémon more likely.
