Wii Rumble U.
I always hated how they stayed away from Consoles for serious Pokemon games. I remember seeing ads everywhere (on the toilet reading Archie comics) [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_Battle_Revolution]for this game[/url], and the selecting moves would work so well with the Gamepad. AND IF THEY ACTUALLY BROUGHT IN THE SECOND GAMEPAD SUPPORT LIKE THEY SAID, LOCAL MULTIPLAYER WOULD BE SO FUCKING TITS. Even if you brought a friend over, they could sign in to their NN, download their Poke-roster/save file (which would be easy to do), and battle that way instead of what was in Pokemon Stadium. All of my money would be gone if so.

[QUOTE=Pelican;41502784]but PBR was crapola bring me pokemon stadium 3[/QUOTE] Exactly, it though had a great idea for multiplayer that could easily make them money. I just want to have an awesome Pokemon game on WiiU.
[QUOTE=Kegan;41502798]Son of a bitch.[/QUOTE] Looks like we are returning to how the orginal concept of red and green was originally suppose to be.
After watching a few videos, I'm not sure if I'm all for Rumble U, i mean so far as i seen, the game has removed all the stage hubs and whatever and stuck to some simplistic world map where every stage is a Battle Royale, I'm unsure if that was the case with the original Rumble, but Rumble Blast was pretty cool so far despite a few hard hurdles here and there. Got as far as chapter 3 in Rumble Blast. Get the feeling that the sale of Rumble U figures is going to fail though, i mean just look at what happened to the Trading Figure Game after it was silently discontinued after a year or so, Pokemon is Pokemon, but the primary fanbase is the Games followed by the Anime then everything else, investing on Figures seems like risky business for a downloadable spinoff title. The Figure aspect isn't really that unique since Skylanders games came about, even if in SL's case, they had to get their foot under the door by mitigating Spyro's name to a [I]subtitle[/I] then suddenly drop it later on. (you know, like the theory about FF13, where eventually it'll just be called Lightning's adventure as the FF3 logo shrinks down?, not even a fan of Skylanders considering its purely RL monetizing gimmick, which doesn't work in a game with Achievements, you could bypass it by borrowing a friend's figures, but still....)
