Agro Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Let's clear up the status bar for the moment. Remember that thing we thought that Google Maps Pokémon thing was gonna be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 As an owner of no handheld gaming system, I am really, really excited for this. Curious how closely the battle system will resemble the standard pokemon games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 HOLY funk NINTENDO YOU ACTUALLY DID SOMETHING DIFFERENT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchermitcher Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 NINTENDO YOU ACTUALLY DID SOMETHING DIFFERENT...when you put it that way, this might not be so bad Still, I feel questionable, maybe doubtful, about this. I've always wanted a phone game about collecting monsters and all, that involved integrating real life environments into it. Something like Pokemon, but not Pokemon itself. I have my doubts but I'll wait for more info to come out, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Well yes it is different which, now that I think about it, is neat. And it COULD be cool, but as I said before I have no phone so I can't do anything with this sadly.I am really curious how it's gonna work totally.And yeah, the Google thing, now I remember why it looked familiar.

Tentacruel Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I used to be very very adamant about keeping Pokemon Pokemon. It's sacred.To be honest though the IP is going to stagnate if they don't do something a little risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchermitcher Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I agree about the IP becoming stagnant unless some change happens, but at what cost does this new change come? If Pokemon jumps on the mobile train, then we can definitely expect a lot of other IPs to do the same in the distant future, even if only partially. I get that gaming is a business and new games go where the money flows, but mobile gaming bothers me on some strange level I can't put my finger on. I should try to be positive about this but I still don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 What I am curious of is whether wild pokemon location is server or client side. Competing with other players for supply of pokemon in an area could be a very interesting dynamic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconus297 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Can we just agree that 2016 looks like it will be the best year of all of our lives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted September 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 For the record guys, you basically have your gameplay at the end of the video. And as would be expected, it looks nothing like the CG trailer lawl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I would have liked to see actual gameplay, but you have my attention. Granted, putting the pokemon label on anything will do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I can't really form an opinion until I see a good amount of gameplay. Like, that big battle in the end of the trailer was cool but I've really got no idea what's going on with this. I also don't have any sort of mobile devices for this sort of thing, so eh...

Cosmo. Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 What I am curious of is whether wild pokemon location is server or client side. Competing with other players for supply of pokemon in an area could be a very interesting dynamic.If it's server side, it's basically asking to create WWIII. I can imagine people pushing each other around to catch a rare pokémon. But until i see the gameplay idk how i feel about this, the trailer was cool and all, but you know, gameplay helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I love how all the people in the trailer were really attactive 30-somethings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Figured this would be a freemium game. I wasn't too overly enthusiastic about this even after watching the trailer. As interesting as this sounds, this'll be something I won't be getting, partly because...I also don't have any sort of mobile devices for this sort of thing, so eh...

Agro Posted September 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 would have liked to see actual gameplayuntil I see a good amount of gameplayuntil i see the gameplayAgain though, they do show some sort of gameplay at the end of the video I love how all the people in the trailer were really attactive 30-somethings. I like to think that's Pokémon's real target demo. Also they seemed more like 20-somethings to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shradow Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Again though, they do show some sort of gameplay at the end of the video I like to think that's Pokémon's real target demo. Also they seemed more like 20-somethings to me. I can't really give an opinion on a couple seconds of gameplay given no other context, I don't count it. And I agree with that, I'm 20 by this point and I'd say I'm well within Pokemon's demographic still. The people who grew up playing it are still playing it even as adults, in my experience.

Shradow Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I didn't really pay attention to that part, I was skipping around the video trying to find some actual gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconus297 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Right at the end, there.The gameplay is a half-second snippet at the tail end of the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really give an opinion on a couple seconds of gameplay given no other context, I don't count it. As I've said before, there's no way it can count as gameplay of any signifance. I saw it the first time I watched the video but it makes little difference since it's basically nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
