Pokemon Black and White - This shits not just for kids anymore.
239 replies, posted
I came to this thread expecting you to try and win us over as to why the new games are "that much better"
your reasons are that the sprites look better, the story line has improved, and the new trainers look older. so it's definitely not for kids anymore!
not convinced

God they look dumb
It just seems like they tried way too hard with this game
I mean Amish trainers? Wut?
Too bad Nintendo didn't make the game.

The new Pokemon look like Digimon.

And not in a good way.
[QUOTE=EchidnaX;25782670]Hey guys! So before you go on a rant saying "OMG THIS GOES IN POKEMON MEGATHREAD", theres a discussion to this.
Okay, so recently I imported the new Pokemon White version, and all I can say is WOW. This game is a lot more in-depth than previous games.
First off, the pokemon actually move nonstop in battle. Good job Nintendo, only took you like eight years to figure that one out. Theyre only 2-D sprites, but they look good even when the camera (Which also is different than previous games) moves around the field.

Second off, the storyline is actually (more) believable. According to Game Freak, it took them a year and a half just to do the plot, and all i can say is wow. You start off like all the other games, but this time you have two rivals, and a third (N) that has the power to control pokemon, giving him a different team every time you face him.

Next, the team this time around is Team Plasma. Instead of the usual 'Take over the world!' theme, they want to free pokemon from slavery. Only problem is, theyre AMISH.

This has all the info you could ever want for this game. So, what do you guys think of Game Freak's franchise reboot? What about Pokemon in a general view?
Oh, and before i forget

You guys can cut the dick jokes.
It's just fur. It's the same thing as on its chest.

Also you guys can stop comparing them to Digimon. You sound like idiots.
Nowadays, Digimon are more like Gundam.

You gotta be shitting me.
If the battles were 10 times faster and more interesting I'd probably like Pokemon.
lol pokemons for kids why r you playing it!?
lol oh wait i forgot that u are kids. :cool:
Honestly I don't know any kids that play pokemon.
[QUOTE=Biggins;25790341]If the battles were 10 times faster and more interesting I'd probably like Pokemon.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I was hoping for more speed during battles. All the Pokemon games have like the exact same battle speed.
Select moves faster v:v:v
Ive never played pokemon and this game looks p boring.
[QUOTE=EvilZx;25790416]Yeah, I was hoping for more speed during battles. All the Pokemon games have like the exact same battle speed.[/QUOTE]
Pokemon wasnt meant to become moder warfare or anything, it was made to be slow because a lot of people like slow rpgs

It's a turn based system, what did you expect?

Heres some battle footage:

The battles actually move pretty damn fast!
What makes this any different, besides more shittier pokemon and minor gameplay tweaks? Would it kill them to make a multiple-ending game and some kind of karma system to keep the already shallow plot somewhat worth paying attention to?
And the only reason I got Soul Silver was cause it didn't have this embarrassing anime artstyle that makes everything look like a digimon and pokemon had sex.
God I miss the GBC days.
[QUOTE=Tudd;25790724]What makes this any different, besides more shittier pokemon?[/QUOTE]
You can't say the pokemon are shittier without playing it. And if you did you'd know that there's loads of awesome ones.
[QUOTE=Tudd;25790724]Would it kill them to make a multiple-ending game and some kind of karma system to keep the already shallow plot somewhat worth paying attention to? [/QUOTE]
There's still plenty to do after beating the league.
Do you even know the plot of the latest games? What good would a karma system do?
[QUOTE=Tudd;25790724]And the only reason I got Soul Silver was cause it didn't have this embarrassing anime artstyle[/QUOTE]
It's pokemon, it's all anime artstyle.
[QUOTE=Tudd;25790724]that makes everything look like a digimon and gundam had sex.[/QUOTE]
See my post above. Find me a pokemon that looks like that. I'm intrigued to see what you mean.
Come back when you've played the games yourself and taken off your nostalgia goggles.
Time Nintendo? It is really that time again? i't seems as you only just created another pokémon game.
