          • I’m from the UK, they keep making us go to a toy store that I’d have to travel over 100 miles (which for me is alot) to get to the nearest one. I spent a long time waiting for them to find out what it was as they didn’t know and they tried to force me to buy something first. It was for the Shiny Rayquaza event.

          • oh…well i got a shiny rayquaza from the anchient origins card release from gen 6.

          • It should have been for us. I get that it was a promotional thing but they weren’t very helpful or nice about it, even though I told them it was free.

          • Well, here in my country, we never got that one so, you’re lucky enough that they distributed it there.

  7. I waited in line at Target from 6:30AM to 8AM and got my switch!!! About to wait for the controllers to charge and play Breath of The Wild!

    • One of the benefits of living in a ‘small’ town is that I went to my local shop 5 minutes after opening and didn’t have to wait at all. Three people where there before me, but the 30 switches or so will most likely picked up when people get home from work.

  27. Maaaannn. I wasted 8 hours today in BotW and I feel that I haven’t even scratched the surface. Will I ever beat this game lol.

    Reply

      • I wish I could say. I played like 20 minutes last night (I explored the temple of time and all that, basic first hour stuff), but I’ve been at stupid school all day and I won’t be home and be able to play for another hour and a half or so….
        Going to school for 7 hours a day is one thing, but having to stick around an hour early and 2 hours after it ends is really really boring

        Reply

          • Speaking of. Bokoblins are NASTY. Like seriously, I didn’t even consider them a threat because of past Zelda games, but I went into a den thinking nothing of it, and got slaughtered ruthlessly. I won eventually but it was one of the most intense Zelda fights I’ve ever done. AGAINST A TRIBE OF BOKOBLIN

          • After a couple of hours you’re glad it’s just a tribe of bokoblins! There’s a particular enemy that’s really nasty, it kils you in the most weird way ever, and running away doesn’t help.

          • Unlocked three towers, did 11 shrines and did some stuff to unlock the way to experience the story, but still a lot to go. Not anywhere near tackling a dungeon lol.

          • So I take it the game’s a time commitment? That’s awesome. I was hoping that it would take forever (and I mean that in the best way possible).

          • It certainly does. Can’t say how long it will take though, because everyone’s play experience is different. I would say if you wanted to get a good shot at beating the final boss you could do it in 20-30 hours, but there’s much stuff to explore and to figure out for yourself. There’s zero handholding, so most of the time you’re on your own. There is some good guidance however, if you need that type of structure in your games.

          • I went a bit northwest but then went east like the game suggests you should do. Where you first jump off doesn’t really matter a lot, since the fast travel system is easy and you’ll be travelling around a bit at first. But it’s better to go east since you have to unlock something that can be used during exploration, or else you’ll have to backtrack everything.

          • I will eventually. I want to do a bunch of stuff before I start getting hooked on the story. I’m afraid that I won’t want to continue if I finish the story.

  30. I need to say some stuff about the switch launch and such.

    First, I had an absolute blast with the fans last night. I went into GS like an hour and a half early, and people are just striking up random conversations about Nintendo stuff and it’s awesome. You don’t just see that in regular life for me, I only know two people who like nintendo personally and so I love going to launches and having fun with random fans. This whole experience has made me realize: I’m not bad at making friends like I thought. I’m just bad at making friends with people who aren’t open about their interests.

    Switch itself, feels awesome. One minor complaint: I haven’t actually played with it, but when I felt the joycon in the grip, the ZR and ZL buttons felt oddly played. Pro controller feels perfect, glad I picked that up. I will say though, the buttons are unnecessarily huge. It’s not a complaint per se, but it’s odd nonetheless.

    Also can confirm, game carts do taste bad. Staying up till 3 makes me do impulsive things…

          • I’m not too bad with a phone keyboard but I’m definitely much MUCH more used to a keyboard.

  32. I got Breath of the Wild! I made a space for it (and all future Switch games) on my shelf and I couldn’t be more excited. I also have Super Bomberman R coming tomorrow, so I’ll have lots to do for quite a long while. I’m still missing something important though…you know, the system itself. Nothing’s changed with the status of that order. Sorry customer service, I normally don’t like pestering but this is annoying…

    Reply

          • I’m not really a fan of screen protectors so I’ll just be careful with it. I’m sure I’ll use it in the dock 99.9% of the time anyway, so I won’t be taking it out and putting it back in multiple times a day like these reviewers are.

          • I’m fine with screen protectors as long as they put them on right. When I got my ipad the guy at best buy said that he would put it on to make sure it was aligned properly, and he did a horrible job and now I have to live with this asymmetry.

      • I pre-ordered with Amazon and it’s been in the “preparing for shipment” and “shipping soon” stage for well over a day. It still says it’s being delivered today, though. I asked customer service what was going on and they said it should be shipping very shortly, but that was early yesterday morning.

        • Hmm sucks. It’s the same with my pro controller. Good thing that the joy-cons in the grip are better than expected for me.

          Reply

          • I hope they aren’t as squishy as the Wii U buttons, those wore horrible to click down. I prefer my thight buttons.

          • No, I mean they’re softer. The Wii U buttons have more give, they’re much more press-able, if that makes sense. As opposed to 3DS buttons, which are hard and don’t go down much

          • Yeah the Switch’s are tiiiiny. But I have relatively small hands so it’s ok. Have to say I like the split dpad for Zelda, makes it easy quickselect the right thing.

          • I find more comfortable using analogs for platforms rather than joysticks tho

          • I can imagine that. Luckily the Pro controller has a real dpad but good luck when playing in the car…

          • My birthday is a week from today so I think I’m going to ask for a Pro Controller and a set of red Joy-cons. I couldn’t finance those myself 😛

  33. I had one big technical issue with my Switch already:
    Was playing BotW when suddenly the game crashes. Sent back to home. Try to reboot, same error page and sent to home. Turns out the system had electronically ejected the SD card which contained the update data. System asked for a reboot in which it couldn’t detect the card anymore, so I had to manually reinsert it and then everything was fine again. I was worried for a bit that my save was corrupted though.

    • I heard that early versions of consoles usually have this kind of problems, a good example is the PS4…

      Reply

      • This is why I never buy a console on release and wait until the next version. That and I can rarely afford it anyway.

        Reply

    • It’s much more rough around the edges than I expected it would be, but just compare the 3DS of 2011 to the 3DS of 2017. I think about the amazing potential this system will have later in its lifespan, possibly through revisions or add-ons.

  36. I have to say, Walmart really came through for me where Amazon failed. Breath of the Wild was removed from Amazon until release day (genius move folks), but I was able to smoothly pre-order the game from Walmart and get it today without any hassle. I’ll definitely use them again.

  38. I’m debating to put my Switch games on the ‘console (Wii, Wii U, PS4) shelf’ or the ‘handheld (DS, 3DS, PSVita) shelf’. It feels more like a console to me, but the game boxes blend in better with the smaller cases. What’s everyone else doing?

    Reply

    • I’m giving the Switch a whole compartment to itself for now, since I know I’m going to get a crapton of games for it and the cases are all very thin. My 3DS and Wii U areas are all full anyway, I wouldn’t want to cram.

      Reply

  40. I hope I can get a Switch before Mario Kart comes out. Anxiously waiting for this pre-order period at GameStop to end (GameStop is only selling to those who pre-ordered atm), and then hoping there is still some stock left over so I can go buy it.

      • Thats actually what I wanted to say They are based on Constellations

        Astral- Is based on Cancer the Crab why the title is Green and Rust colored is thats the color of the Cancer Nebula

        Stellar- Is based on Capricorn the ram and its logo color is because the nebula is Orange and Purple

        The trio in this are the Star trio as they are based on: Three different Stars

  52. I kinda want to brag about how I knew that not pre-ordering was a good idea because then you know about technical problems and don’t have to deal with it and you can buy it when you feel comfortable with its issue being fixed and all that but I’m also not playing Breath of the Wild right now so

  58. Man I’ve played a decent amount of Zelda today…….My eyes are very tired. There’s definitely people out there that have played more then me, but I’m quite content with where I am lol Zelda is quite beautiful I must say. I’m enjoying it a lot. I may play it slowly as I just beat Final Fantasy 15 barely a week ago. So I don’t want to get burned out on it. I also got to play the Snipper Clippers demo with my brother earlier and it’s so totes adorbs. I had such a good time playing that. I also also got to play Bomberman and that was also fun. Although it was only 4 people and two of said people were cpu’s lol Tomorrow Me and my friends are having a party where we’ll play 1-2 Switch and such so that should also be fun. The Switch is such a clean and streamlined system. Nintendo really did sucha a great job with it. I’d say my only complaint is the kick stand……A few days ago people were in love with making fun of Cnet for having that video, but they were completely right….The kick stand is kind of garbage. I probably won’t use the table mode regardless very much, but the stand is so flimsy that it certainly isn’t enticing me to try to. Other than that the Switch is amazing lol

    Reply

        • Ehh, that’s kind of the problem of the switch in general. When people create rumors of how it’ll be the all in one device for Nintendo; everyone expects their own expectations too be met and complain if they don’t. I saw someone streaming to day actually complaining that they had to go through the settings menu to make Mii’s now, and the fact that their wasn’t background music when making one.

          Reply

          • I just think it should be sturdy enough that you CAN touch it without it falling over. I had it on a flat surface and I still felt like it was good enough. Maybe if it had one more notch to click in to make the angle deeper……Oh well I suppose it’s a small problem, but still kind of annoys me lol

  59. So I’ve been playing Zelda for the last 11 hours straight, and yeah its pretty much guaranteed to be GTOY. Its fantastic, encourages you(and forces you a bit) to try different play styles, autosaves often enough that you don’t mind dying a lot, and always has anew fresh carrot to dangle in front of your fact to say one more thing. Heck I had a legit moment of terror in the game seeing something that I truly didn’t understand, and I’m not even aware if its random, a spoiler or what.

    • I’ve been playing for like 5 hours and I haven’t even made it off the plateau…

  60. I played Zelda and I gotta say, the Hidden Village part is super rad!

    ok but blehg I have to do the City in the Sky now and it’s my least favorite dungeon in the game. Like at least the water Temple is simple with a guide but the City of the Sky is just annoying… at least that’s what I remember

    Reply

  61. Does anyone know if the games save to the console or the cartridge itself? I might have the opportunity to get a Switch + BotW, but I want to get the special edition and possibly returning the one I buy soon..? Idk if that’s even possible but

    Reply

      • I’ve been wondering about that. so if you have an sd card in that means that only the game itself can be saved to that and the actual save data can only be on the Switch? That seems majorly flawed

        Reply

        • yeah like if i bring maybe mario kart to play at a friends house if makes new save data but the 3ds carts can save games on themselves.

          Reply

          • Seems totally dumb. Also the idea that you have to input your credit card info on the eshop every time you purchase something……very annoying….Even the 3ds saves that kind of thing. I will say I love the Switch, but it’s not without problems hahaha

          • What are you talking about? She never interrupts game play like Fi or Navi like… ever. She just plays a cool role in the story, makes wolf link look cooler and warps you around. She is a rad character

          • I’ll be honest I don’t hate Midna at all, she’s a cool character but I just love to hate TP.

          • Like, Twilight Princess is flawed? Like the tears of light sucks and the Wii’s resolution didn’t help the art style (which if you look at the Hyrule Historia’s art for TP its actually a really cool unique art style) and.. the Water Temple sorta sucks, and the intro is slow, and the soundfont is straight trash AND THE MUSIC CHANGES TO THE ENEMY ENCOUNTER MUSIC WHEN YOU GET NEAR AN ENEMY DURING ONE OF THE MOST EMOTIONAL MOMENTS WHERE YOU ARE RUNNING AS FAST AS YOU CAN THROUGH HYRULE TO SAVE MIDNA AND GET HER TO ZELDA AND IT FUCKS THE MUSIC AND

            but seriously, it’s over all so good

            But Midna is such a good part of it. I love her character arc where she goes from hating Link and using him to get the fused shadows to warming up to him until Zelda’s sacrifice for Midna kinda slaps her in the face to make her realize that this shit is important.

            And the bosses are really cool. Like this game has my favorite Ghoma probably and both the boss and Miniboss in Arbitor’s Grounds are really cool! The sword techniques you learn spices up battles alot and its just all really cool.

            Plus Zant is really great and so are the kids. I like a lot of characters from this game. Anyways TP is flawed but still fantastic

    Reply

      • Nope there’s a move tutor in XD and Colosseum that teaches Mimic. Give it to a Nincada, evolve it to Shedinja, transfer it to gen 7, then get an Audino with Entrainment and outspeeds the Shedinja. Get your Arcanine,. Then have Audino use entrainment on the opponent, use Mimic on Audino, swap in Arcanine, use Entrainment on Arcanine and then use Burn up. Arcanine is no typeless and has Wonder Guard. the only thing that could kill it is Perish Song.

  88. Starstorm are you playing the Wii version of TP or the HD one? I still think great of the game, it’s dungeons are basically the best of 3D Zelda. The graphics are a bit muddied though, and the overworld is quite empty, but it’s still a very good game. BotW trumps it in many aspect though, so look forward to playing it!

    Reply

    • I’m playing the Wii version. I never picked up the HD version sadly. And I totally agree with you on the dungeons. All of them are great. Even City and the Sky and the Water Temple, while frustrating, are really unique. I especially love Snowpeak Ruins. Having a dungeon inside a mansion is just so cool and the boss is pretty rad. Just such a great game.

      BotW just looks like everything great about Zelda rolled up into one and I’m just so excited

      Reply

      • Those are all great dungeons! With TP you’re spending most of your time inside the dungeon, and they are all lengthy challenges. Skyward Sword tried to counter this by making the overworld a pre-dungeon itself, but it came at the cost of moving along freely. With BotW you spend most of the time outside, and there’s a good balance between doing shrines and the other stuff. Haven’t done a real dungeon though, so can’t say how great they are to play.

        Reply

  89. Done playing BotW for the evening, I feel like it draws me in too hard and I need to mind my other tasks. And with the Switch it’s easy to play in bed when I’m about to sleep. First need to do some homework for next week.

  91. Remember the time before X and Y was released?

    -I thought that there was going to be a fairy type roaming legendary trio… guess the Tapus were sort of like that
    – We all thought that there would be this beautiful forest similar to the one in A Link to the Past where you find Xerneas and Yveltal
    – Team Flare wasn’t the worst thing ever yet
    – The region looked interesting and had potential

    Reply

  92. There’s one big thing I don’t get about BotW, the hint is in the logo, if you’ve been where I’ve been you’ll understand.
    The Master Sword is shown multiple times as damaged and rusty and I thought to retrieve it we had to repair it somehow with a quest. However, it’s brand new when it rests in the pedestal at Korok Forest. Is there something I missed? Or was it solely for imaging purposes in the trailers? Only one way to find it out!

    • Bug – Mothim, I don’t hate it it’s just not very good and I like the others more.
      Dark – Alolan Persian, mis-matched head/body and a disappointment in general.
      Dragon – Hakamo-o, just like the others better.
      Electric – Alolan Golem, It just doesn’t particularly work for me.
      Fairy – Tapu Bulu, lacks any Green on it, all the other Tapus have some colour representative of their type, making it seem blander to me.
      Fighting – Conkeldurr, the veins are kinda gross.
      Fire – Magmortar, I don’t like its’ face or the pink parts.
      Flying – Mantyke, just kinda eh to me when Mantine is so cool.
      Ghost – Dhelmise, just not a fan of it really.
      Grass – Budew, just like the others better.
      Ground – Alolan Dugtrio, it annoys me still.
      Ice – Glaceon, not what I wanted from Ice type Eeveelution really and just like the others better.
      Normal – Gumshoos, just makes me think about how big my hands are.
      Poison – Garbodor, I don’t like the gangly arm or the trash ears really.
      Psychic – Cosoem, just isn’t much of a thing, I do like its’ face and I just like the others better.
      Rock – Binacle, just like the others better.
      Steel – Klinklang, the bottom gear thingy just doesn’t do much for me.
      Water – Luvdisc, other than Heart Scales I used to nothing it. Then Wondertrade cam into being and I gained a slight loathing for it. Also it generally isn’t useful or much of an appealing design for me I guess.

  120. So Avoid story spoilers, but for those of us playing breath of the wild, what dungeon order have you been going in?

  123. What are everyones favorite animated shows? In no particular order:
    1) The Clone Wars. Really good writing and it’s fun! The animation is really well done, and Ahsoka is my favorite SW character 🙂
    2) Avatar. This show is just really cool and I love all the characters (except KAtara) Toph ftw
    3) Korra. Maybe not quite as good as Avatar, but it’s pretty fun at times and expands on the lore in cool ways.
    4) Spongebob. It’s hilarious. It sucks nowadays though…
    5) Pokemon: Kanto-Sinnoh. Ash grows a lot throughout this…and then Unova comes along.

  135. Since I forgot to tell you guys how Logan was, here’s my review on it:

    Logan has very violent and gory, but satisfying action in it. The first and third acts especially are full of this bloody violence, which make those acts really good.
    As for the cast, Hugh Jackman really gives it his all in his final outing. And he does a perfect job at displaying the hostility and dark side of Logan in the post-apocalyptic future. Patrick Stewart (as always) is great as Professor X, and also performs the weaknesses Charles has deep down really well. I will say that the girl who played X-23/Laura did a fantastic job, in making her character appear innocent, but that innocence masquerades her ruthlessness within. And another character, one of the villains that Boyd Holbrook, is pretty good in his character, though not as great as the previous 3.
    And, perhaps the best part of this movie, would be the emotional themes in this. The second act drops the violence in exchange for some deeper character moments, which works like a charm. And the ending for this movie ends off in a very satisfying way, as well as an ending that will make you cry.

    I will give this movie a 9.5/10

  138. I have a conundrum
    My Toys R Us is selling every amiibo for Botw and I’m this close to splurging

    I can’t decide if I should buy them all or just a Bokoblin, they say Zelda has a chance to drop a rare shield but I don’t know

    I hold in my sweaty mits a 100$s specifically for Switch stuff but my penny pinching nature is getting in the way

    Reply

    • I’d buy at least one of them, they are all high quality and some of the best amiibo I’ve come accros. The Bokoblin one is a bit bland though, and I still need to buy Zelda so I can’t comment on which one is the best.

    • Save that money. Better amiibos will come along, and you could buy a game or two with that when the switch library expands.

  147. So I finally decided to let my little brother try the switch, and. . . he drops it. He played for like five minutes before dropping it straight on the ground. Luckily nothing is broken (I think), but I’m really annoyed. He kept making me feel guilty for not letting him use it, and despite the fact that I payed for 100% of it, my parents made me let him try it. Ugh, I don’t ever want to let him use it again but I know that there’s no way that’ll happen. -_-

  148. It’s kind of funny. I feel like Breath of the Wild is so huge and in-depth, and you could spend hundreds of hours just messing around, climbing mountains, watching the sunset, etc, yet we’re going to have a full library of Nintendo games beyond just Zelda as well. For some reason, that makes me extremely excited. This system is shaping up to be nothing short of legendary.

    Pokedex Entry: Ledipion are incredibly rare in the wild because only one in an entire colony actually reaches this form. In order to do so, a Ledian is required to become the strongest member of the group. Once this happens, the Ledian will leave the hive to train even further. While the method may vary, the Ledian either returns as a Ledipion, or dies while training.

When they emerge, the energy has fully spread across their bodies, unlocking their secret potential. Their wings now work like armored plates and glow with energy during the night. Seeing one glowing is said to bring good luck.

    Pokedex Entry: This Pokemon is feared by natives who live around it because of it’s terrifying webs. It is said that once something enters its web, it can never escape. Anything that gets stuck, no matter what it is, becomes its prey. Unless it is expanding the size of its web or moving toward prey, it never moves. If the web becomes at risk of destruction, the Sinestaria will become merciless and defend it with its own life.

    Web Trap: The opposing Pokemon is slowed by one stage and cannot escape battle. This applies to any opponent that switches in as well. Has no effect on bug or flying types.

      • Here’s the little catch to this
        1. It’s like shadow tag, this only works for as long as it is in
        2. What is this thing even outspeeding?

        Reply

        • It can still be used to slow opponents just by being in and then it traps them too. I think it should either be like a Speed version of Intimidate or a Bug version of Shadow Tag. It doesn’t necessarily matter if it is outspeeding anything.

          Reply

          • I know what you mean, it’s just hard to make a lore based ability since it’s a web that’s supposed to trap the foe but I made it slow cause of sticky web
            I was originally thinking speed would return to normal once the pokemon Sinestaria faints, but I’ll probably edit it
            Keep in mind, I have zero feedback besides here

          • I see
            I think I’ll stick to the bug shadow tag, but thanks for giving your opinion regardless!

  169. GUYS I FINALLY FINISHED TWILIGHT PRINCESS

    So actually I first bought the game 6 years ago. I was just getting into Zelda and I saw it at game stop and bought it used. But I sucked at it and never made it that far.

    Later, 3 years ago I would reach the Palace of Twilight. But I sucked so I got stuck.

    And here I am! After a 6 year struggle, I beat this damn game and I just adore it! For real my favorite Zelda (until I get my hands on BOTW). I love the characters, I love the bosses, I love the dungeons I especially love the ending and just the insane final bosses and of course… my girl Midna.

    One one hand I’m really angry because those people probably haven’t played the game but on the other hand, it’s sad that the industry has gotten to the point where people don’t trust reviews anymore even for games that are almost perfect like BOTW. Other companies have paid off reviewers and now no one can believe that a game got a 10/10

    Reply

    • For some reason, every single one of my friends at school is an absolute buzzkill and insisted that all of the 10/10 reviews were paid for. Since they aren’t true Nintendo fans, I’m sure they’ll never find out for themselves that it truly is deserving of the perfect scores. I feel bad for them.

      Reply

    • People should also know that scoring a 10 doesn’t mean the game is ‘perfect’ or has no flaws, rather, it is a relative position that it is does many things better than other games and moves the medium forward. Getting a 10 on a math test doesn’t also mean you know everything about math, it just means that you are very knowledgeable for the subject at hand.

  209. Hm…So I know a lot of us have been a bit spam happy with Switch and Zelda talk, but I have an honest question about it for someone who’s perhaps a little more tech savvy then myself. I’ve been trying to find a rough level of comparison to the switches graphical power, and I think I have a good answer, but I wanted to run it by someone else. We know that it run’s on a Tegra x1, which is more powerful the the Tegra x1, and seems probably comparable to something along the lines of a gtx 660-680, where by comparison its probably safe to say that the PS4’s somewhere in the gtx 700 range. Does that sound about right?

    Reply

    • Honestly, I don’t think the graphics are that much greater than the Wii U, but I suppose it is slightly improved for some textures. So yes, it would be accurate to say that it’s somewhere close to – but well below – the PS4.

      Reply

      • Yeah, I’d say it seems a bit better, but its kinda hard to gauge really since the game that most would use for comparison is a port of a WII U game. Honestly I’d say its a fair bit more powerful then the Wii U, but again thank you for the input.

  210. Does anyone know if there is a maximum number of heart containers/stamina vessels you can get, or could you theoretically get all of one and none of the other?

    Reply

    • No idea on Stamina, but I’m fairly certain that the maximum number of hearts you can obtain is 30. So given the four you get from dungeons and the three you start with, that makes 23 you can get from shrines. 23×4 makes 92, so I’d guess their’s maybe one more heart container I don’t personally know of, meaning you can pick Stamina three times. Though this is purely speculation.

    It’s like Nintendo and Sony are friends again after the break up they had when making the Polystation. Nintendo tried to hide the pain by afterwards dating Philips but it just didn’t work out. Philips only made Nintendo feel bad about itself and so they broke it off. Nintendo slowly recovered and became independent. All these years later they are friends again.

I’ll still argue that its really not well suited as a handheld and that Nintendo should release a 3DS successor next year, but honestly this feels like the first time I’ve played something with Nintendo on it that actually can rival the competition.

    • I give it a solid 9. Sliding the Joycons in and out of the dock and grip is way more satisfying than I anticipated. The operating system is ridiculously fast but there’s also nothing fun to do with it. Zelda is also a ridiculously good game on handheld, because the graphics are really amazing. It’s an HD NINTENDO HANDHELD.

        • I think mid-April is the perfect time for some kind of announcement. It would be a good time for a Direct to discuss Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, new Arms characters, and maybe show a bit of Mario Odyssey gameplay. They could also talk about virtual console and other missing features. As for Pokémon, it could be announced during this Direct or on its own a few weeks earlier or later. I just think April is a solid time to do it.

  219. I’ve been thinking about E3 this weekend since it’s in three months (and companies will start announcing their plans far earlier than that). I’m still willing to bet real money that’s Nintendo’s main headliners at the show will be Super Mario Odyssey, Animal Crossing, and Smash Bros.

    Reply

    • Personal guesses would probably be more on Mario, Splatoon(I don’t think it’ll be out yet, but scratch it if it is), Metroid since Reggie’s already teased it, Picmin 4, maybe hints of what GF are doing, Fire emblem warriors and maybe a trailer for FE 16, and probably some love for the 3DS titles since the switch hype should die down by then and remind people that it still exists.

      Reply

      • I totally forgot about Splatoon 2. I’m pretty sure that will release in early August, just a hunch, so that will definitely be there. I think Pikmin and Metroid reboot announcements would be perfect as well to show that Nintendo is rethinking a bunch of their properties. But I just know this is Animal Crossing’s year (although it will probably come in 2018) since we have that mobile game coming out. Fire Emblem Heroes coincided with Fire Emblem Echoes and Switch, so why should Animal Crossing be left all alone?

        Reply

        • Oh yeah I can see Animal crossing coming out soon enough, but its hard to say if its E3 worthy, as rude as that might sound. Animal crossing is a really niche title and might be more deserving of its own direct or something rather then being included with everything for E3.

    • In human anatomy, the arm is the upper limb of the body, comprising regions between the glenohumeral joint (shoulder joint) and the elbow joint. In common usage the arm extends to the hand. It can be divided into the upper arm, which extends from the shoulder to the elbow, the forearm which extends from the elbow to the hand, and the hand. Anatomically the shoulder girdle with bones and corresponding muscles is by definition a part of the arm. The Latin term brachium may refer to both the arm as a whole or to the upper arm on its own.[1][2][3]

      • I have one piece of the climbing gear, it’s useful and easy to upgrade. I also have two fountains, don’t really need the third right now because the material requirements get harder.

        Which area is that shrine found in? Sounds interesting. Also, I wonder where all those shrines are to be found in the game, the shrines I did and other shrines I know to locate are still a third of the total shrines in the game lol.

          • Did you visit the platform with the patrolling guardians already? Do you know if the shrine is hard?

          • Not sure, I’m at work and I should be getting back to that, anyway I hope you find it, took me two hours to figure everything out

          • Is it a puzzle or a stealth segments? I hate the latter, the one in the Korok Forest is really annoying.

          • it is naked island advanture aka you are stripped of all equipment and you gotta find three orbs scattered on the island and you can only use what you scrounge up,

          • Also did the most annoying shrine in the game yet, it is one of the motion based challenges where you have to put three balls in three cups. Soooo frustrating.

    • I hatched a Shiny Weedle by accident in X yesterday breeding for somone else. I’ll probably train it to Lv 100 before transferring it so I can HT it’s S.Def to max. It’s in a Sport Ball and is Jolly.

Its very difficult to check hacked pokemon since even if people bring up ways that it can be checked, it’ll quickly be corrected by hackers and even then it doesn’t really make much of a difference in the grand scheme since hacked pokemon can’t be better then the game would legally allow.

          Really it just comes down to saying that someone got their team in a matter of minutes compared to others who would spend hours-days depending on the game to get the same team, and people argue that hacking in general is wrong, which is why its a pretty gray/divided issue among people.

          Reply

    • Okay, lemme explain.
      Certain stats must exist for a mon to be legal. A person may cut some corners in the breeding process to give the Pokémon moves/abilities they want easier in order to not spend years and years farming and breeding. While there may not be anything inherently wrong with the Pokémon, the arguement is that it was cheated in so it automatically is a bad Pokémon, no matter the actual legality of it

  258. I don’t like to complain about stuff, but Smogon’s been making really stupid decisions this generation. I sorta understand for Dugtrio in Ubers (though also why tho), but why the hell is Cresselia, Hawlucha, Milotic, and Entei in RU? They are all great Pokemon to use, plus you can transfer them from ORAS, which has tutors you can teach them before transferring.

    Reply

    • Cresselia may be a very good wall, but its offenses are pretty bad, so the only way for this thing to really kill is it must really stall it out, and with the addition of great steel types it’s easily countered. Also bug types got a major boost this gen as well. With Excadrill, mimikyu, kartana, Celesteela, alola muk etc. in OU, and Bisharp EMpoleon metagross and scizor in UU, Cresselia stands no chance. And Weather cuts it’s healing abilities. And lnock hurts.

      Hawlucha- Hawlucha has always been very strong when it can start sweeping, and now that Bird Spam is gone, it can do some work. HOWEVER, OU has the 4 tapus which already counter Hawlucha (Bulu gets the Terrain defense boost). Pokemon that are faster than it give it Pre- Unburden give it trouble like Greninja. Skarmory and Zapdos is it’s Bird Riva. Good Priority can kill it (IE Ice Shard). And Rotom W. and in UU with pokemon like Primarina, Tentacruel, Togekissand Gengar it’s cant hit them all very hard.

      Milotic- Milotic may have a very good ability to makes it even harder to kill with Status. Toxic still hurts it.. Burn not AS much, but it can still be very annoying for milotic. It can survive OU very well with Tapu Koko/Bulu in the way, and there are better Bulky water types. Like Pelliper can set up rain for you, but Milotic is just very basic. Bulky water types pretty much beat this thing back. Tentacruel just shows who’s the better one. And Tsareena (can we talk why this thing is UU? Is it that good?) blows Milotic back.

      Entei- Rocks, Rocks, rocks. Pokemon weak to rocks have to work a little bit harder to be get to be OU. Entei pretty losses to ALL water types. Maybe Grassnium Z Solarbeam is the only helpful counter (with only 90SpA). Garchomp pretty much is the Wall it cant pass to be in OU. and the Plethora of Water types in UU it cant stay up.

      Hope I helped 🙂

          • Dhelmise is rarely used anyways… Plus, it probably gets killed easy
            No but by smogon logic, it should be banned. Have you seen what they actually do ban? Some things have literally no rhyme or reason to why they get banned, just the fact that people dislike things. Hell, they’ve banned out of laziness. Despite the fact Flynium-Z was the problem, they banned four pokemon from UU literally just because of that item.
            The point is, smogon is making some REALLY dumb choices this gen

          • That and by following certain suspect tests, it’s clear that good 90% of the bans have some forms of bias to them.

            And best of all? People make that bullshit over centralization argument. Honestly they have zero right to argue that if they are perfectly fine keeping the actual over centralizers (Lele and Gross this gen) in OU and banning things like friggin Dugtrio
