SV on Switch 2 footage
Too bad you can’t upgrade the shitty art style
CHAD freak...I kneel....
looks better on my PC kek
But I already got this kind of performance and then some on a emulator years ago tho?
You have to buy the new console to experience the 2010 graphics
Pokemon dies with Go, and then was nuked into the ground with the chinese LoL clone, can we stop pretending it didn't?
The amount of Pokemon at one time is the only praise i can give it.
that's illegal you know
that compression SUCKS
No desire to go back and play this again desu
pokeautists have to still pretend the game is any better than palworld
They released the art for Mega Evolutions in Legends ZA too.
Wow. Looks like a ps2 game. Can tendies handle such power?
AHH FINALLY 60FPS(occasionally(with frequent dips))
Serebii
MISTAH MERRICKU SENDU TO PARUMON DEVUROS OUA CAPIRAITO CURAIMS
whaow sirs... it looks... exactly the same as on switch 1... so beutiful...
It looks the same
This almost looks as good as all those chink botw ripoffs you can play on your phone
they sold a broken bad game for $60 dollars and now they're selling a slightly less broken $80 dollar bad game?
You have no idea what you are talking about. That shot at the dragon lake is the one that really shows the improvements. That place was so fucking shitty and laggy on switch 1, but now it actually looks playable.
It looked even better when I played it ages ago, because fans made an upscaled texture patch for the emulator. And it still looked like ass most of the time, simply because the world is barren and the artstyle is shit.
$80 dollars
The update is free, faggot. This isn't a port you have to buy.
Breaking news: Switch 2 will be free
It's good because it's free
But it was broken in the first place?
No, it's the same game, just patched.
l-look 11 years later we finally figured out what shaders and AA are!!
That'll be $80 + tax
This isn't the last of us, anon. They aren't making you buy the same game over and over every generation for mi or improvements.
Everyone gets a free console. Scalpers BTFO
say factually incorrect thing
get told its incorrect
completely moves goalposts
Like pottery.
But I didn't say anything before my post???
Seeing shit at 30fps and then seeing the same shit at 120 fps doesn't change the fact that it's still shit
You have to buy the new console to experience the 2010 graphics
mein nigger, 2010 we had RDR, which is so much better than this.
Is Violet really that bad? I'm really glad I got Scarlet instead
Yeah, not fooling anyone retard. We know it's you. It's always you. Get better bait you boring piece of shit
Grass pop-in still
Oh comon now.
They uploaded a 720p video to twitter, but compressed it beforehand at like 360p.
I'm glad I haven't bought anything pokemon since the glorious GBA days
and then was nuked into the ground with the chinese LoL clone
Hey I like Unite, parts of it are good. Not being kidnapped by 9 brownoids for an hour because some [hue/Peruvian/chink/snoworc, delete as appropriate] got uppity is nice
Neat novelty after how terribly it ran on Switch 1 but the graphics are still bad and I'm more interested in playing ZA directly on Switch 2 and seeing gen 10 next year. If they're not supremely retarded they should be able to make that look passable and still run at 60fps.
Now it looks like a game from 2012 rather than 2006!
wtf this $450 console does the same as my 3000 dollar pc?
Usually people don't get impressed by early PS3 graphics.
I can't believe this is supposed to be a modern console
more like $500 console vs $300 pc
Watch it on the Nintendo Today app if you have it, it's not compressed to hell and looks good.
3000 dollar PC
Anon this shit is like 200 dollar cellphone game tier, might as well just go buy a 10 year old iphone
PS2*
Truly the most stunning environments I have ever seen.
I remember an anonymous user posting in a very formal manner, saying how these games are considered by many to be among the ugliest games ever made, and I think he's not far from the truth.
nobody does it like gamefreak... holy f*ck....
gen 10 is on the way
who's playing this shit now? also no info on all the bugs and glitches
plus there's za, you know, an actual new game
Took like 3 years to make the game playable
why do pokemon fans buy from gamefreak
Just hire monolithsoft to do the open world already
because the games are good
They should’ve delayed Scat and Vomit to be a Switch 2 Launch Window/Title
It's almost impressive. Modern Pokémon not only looks incredibly amateurish but also runs like absolute garbage, it's the best of neither worlds. The fans can cope all they like about hardware but I've seen better looking indie games made in Unity on the fucking Switch.
Sa basically the Switch to Switch 2 is going to be like the 3ds to the New 3ds in terms of "leaps"?
It only looks marginally better.
It's better than not having it, though I would've preferred a patch for Arceus.
Better late than never I guess
Pokémon died with X and Y.
you mean that tech demo with an ugly empty world? geez pokefags literally don't have standards
i should start selling my poop in a box with "pokemon" labeled on it, who knows, some pokefag might even buy it several times
nah xy was good
Lmao do you still have the link?
I'll save the texture patch to pair it with difficulty romhacks someday
they can’t, Pokémon company will have committed hara-kiri, look game freak is an idiotic company, but we cant negate that the problem of modern Pokémon its just how massive the franchise is and that they lack good organization, they could try to copy the development model from call of duty and have 2-3 studios release a game every 2 years but I don’t think they are willing to do that.
That's cool but I already played Scarlet 3 years ago.
No new mega
Never played those, but did play Ultra Sun / Moon. X and Y are on my backlog. Why do you say this?
There are 27 new megas, they're just not revealing them yet. Wait for the July Pokémon Presents.
have to buy a $350 console just to get the "free" updates that make SV play as smoothly as it should have from the very beginning
who the flying fuck even cares when Gen 10 is going to be announced on Pokemon Day next year and released during that same year's November
when Gen 10 will go right back to having performance problems because GameFreak got too bold with the specs and are now pushing the console to its absolute limits... yet again
The next game is gonna run like shit and nintendiddlers will have to wait 10 years + pay 120 freedom dollars to play it in subpar resolution.
It's the total opposite of USUM, rushed story, easiest game ever made, no post game
absolute barren wasteland of a open world
ugly graphics
the gameplay was so stale
and very Boring story besides the path of legends arc
Serious are they sending their best to try to damage control this game or are they genuinely this retarded to think this is one of the best pokemon games
The only good 3D era games
whats the point when i already finished it
barren
? doesn't look barren to me
The Unovacult take
#thankyougamefreak
Yes, on the Switch 2 Edition, where they can mindlessly flood the map with mons all clustered together in a way that looks like a shitty MMO instead of a living, breathing world.
The original experience everyone had with SV was a lot more barren in terms of mons because it would literally crash the game to try and render and maintain that many actors.
Duly noted on the backlog spreadsheet. I'll probably check them out last.
those are not pokemon ruby & sapphire
Can't wait to see Dendra in 4k
3D era
Garde my wife.
The town designs are so wack, most towns only have one or two buildings you can go inside.
i just don’t like how they throw Pokémon at an area and don’t even make them interact with the map its just a bunch of random Pokémon running in the area.
They do interact though. Forretress and Spidops climb into trees. Scythers fight with other Pokemon. You can't expect them to make unique interactions for every single line.
It's a literal downgrade from PLA, a literal tech demo, too. The Pokemon felt at least a little more integrated with the environment and plenty of them had wholly unique behaviors you wouldn't find in other lines.
Don't listen to the cope from the other guy, that's all shit that either exists to breed tedium (you have no way to knock Pokemon out of trees, so if one spawns way up on there rather than at the tree's base, good fucking luck spotting it and aiming your encounter-starting ball) or is just mons looping animations at each other until the player's presence takes priority, rather than a genuine interaction between mons.
I expect no more from Gamefreak.
what N64 game is this
its literally does is looks haphazardly barren the lack of trees a mountain with sides that look like the texture of a tire only like a few water type pokemon (Also i know you have walk in a distance for more to spawn in but like this is still barren) The environment just doesn't look natural
You know it's unfortunate that Palworld became this massive hit with 5 games, 12 CG sets, and 5 movies on the way otherwise this would be impressive
i can't expect anything from the most valuable media franchise
Toys aren't media thougheveralbeit.
Too bad your mom can't upgrade to a better son
fake pixels
The Pokemon felt at least a little more integrated with the environment and plenty of them had wholly unique behaviors you wouldn't find in other lines.
That doesn't sound different at all from what the other anon says. Saying it's just mons looping animations is very reductive and biased.
You can literally ram the trees with your Raidon and the Pokemon drops btw.
Protip, being the highest grossing multimedia franchise isn't accomplished by creating high quality products, it's accomplished by cutting corners at literally every opportunity in order to maximize earnings alongside the consumer's universal cult-level fanaticism over products.
If quality really were what made you #1, then yeah, Pokemon WOULD have some of the best games of all time. Instead it's just a bunch of reiterations on Pokemon Red and Green from 1996.
that would be $25 sir
I can't stop cumming
It looks so shit
Fug :DDDD
The water mons don't even have a swimming pose in water, just fucking default stance at the surface.
Actually it's free
honestly blame pokemon fans for that they did the same thing what happened to hogwarts legacy and gave it a lot of attention instead of just ignoring it instead turning into ape spewing accusation with no sustainable proof whatsoever like it basically killed their family or bombed an orphanage
Yes they do. Stop lying.
Hey anon, it was a joke. Palworld is dead and the fans got fucked.
Nope, it looks way better than the games on the switch 1
It almost looks like a switch 1 game made by a competent game company.
This
What I meant is, you just don't stand in water when you swim, even stationary. You need to tread water. The Vaporeon and Slowpoke are literally standing in water.
Cool, can they improve the framerate and reduce load times in ACNH
which makes me wonder why they didn't just do this on launch and no we aren't using the SWITCH WAS UNDERPOWERED excuse because there are games on the switch that aren't 3rd party that dont run like shit and dont look like shit which makes no sense since pokemon is one of their highest grossing media in Nintendo
They couldn't put any effort on making better fucking textures? It runs better, but it stills looks awful.
Gen 5 Pikachu is just Gen 4 Pikachu by this logic.
Still looks like shit.
APOLOGIZE
For what?
Of course Switch 2 can easily run a Switch 1 game at 60fps, Switch 1 hardware is literally 2014 android tablet hardware
like i explained herethey are on a constant rat race with the card, series, movies, merchandize, etc.
At this point I'm fine with game freak letting AI make their games, not only would the pokemon designs look better, the games themselves would look and run better too.
Gen IV lost a couple more pounds.
NINTENDO HIRE THIS MAN
Don't you fucking snoy babies ever get tired of dogpilling Nintendo for no reason?
Like get a life man
no tf it isn't also its not fucked the lawsuit hasn't even started also its still updating its game and retaining 20k players daily even after a month after its first update which most other monster taming games can't usually do
For what?
GF being incompetent?
You think the quality of the games are going to magically shoot up because they have more hardware power?
The people that still do shit like this?
Yeah, because they use the same engine and pixel art because they're on the same system. They just use them differently.
fpbp
Even Xenoblade Chronicles X on Switch looks and plays better than the Pokémon games on the same hardware. There is zero excuse.
The render distance still looks fucking awful
I just tested both, both are moving their legs when stationary. i don't really get the complaint. They are magical water types you would assume they can float without much trouble.
the fact that the switch 2 is seriously being compared to a 13 year old console in the form of the ps4 at this point is...bleak
If they're not supremely retarded
anon...
20k players daily
What a win! Remember when you guys said this was going to become a massive franchise?
If you want PS5 performance in a portable, you're shit out of luck because the moore's law is dead.
resolution and framerate cant fix those dogshit textures
No, I did that ages ago. The patch should be easy to google though.
pokemon is never a good metric to judge things by
it's always going to look like shit because they will always put minimum effort into it, they know people will buy it anyway
Anon, if you want to showcase 60fps footage, don't do it with a 30fps video. Do it like this.
that's because of longevity and that's still an impressive feat for a monster tamer though also it probably because of the huge lawsuit impending them which probably made a bunch of marketers don't want to do anything with it until it's over that's just how the world of media works
once you stop being a nostalgia fag you'd realize Pokémon games have literally always had the most dogshit graphics since the gba. Literally one tree model copy and pasted the entire game. Compare any pokemon game to another popular jrpg on that system and it always looks like shit compared to it. Game freak has never EVER made good looking pokemon games.
True, that's why Stadium was such a big deal. Not only was it Pokemon on the big screen, it was battles animated and modeled by actually competent developers.
Still a shit game dawg, sorry.
now you people like metacritic?
game textures still look like shit
online still has desync problems
how is this impressive emulation can already achieve this
WOOOOOOOOW THEY DID THE BARE MINIMUM FOR THE SWITCH 2 VERSION (which they should already have done in the first place) AND NOW THERE'S LESS LAG (it still looks like pure dogshit) THANK YOU SO MUCH GF FOR YOUR EFFORTS #THANKYOUGAMEFREAK
Does the windmill still turn at 2 fps?
2010 graphics
if only. im pretty sure there are ps1 games with more fidelity than this.
Gold/Silver were alien tech compared to anything else in the GB
I'm also interested in that since I assume things like that must've taken manual fixing rather than just running the game on much stronger hardware.
Ok
Goes back to playing Palworld
Jesus I forgot how ugly that game is.
anon fucking ps2 games look better then that
thats a charitable shot for Pokemon as well
The pokemon games are genuinely an insult to consumers. Got two friends who bought SV as well and I cannot fathom how you can ignore just how fucking lazy and shoddy the game is.
Completely insane. I can only imagine someone like Kawamoto or Tezuka, even Aonuma would commit sudoku if they shat out crap like that. If Yamauchi was still around he'd probably have sent his yakuza pals to Game Freak and he'd be right to do so.
It's hard to find a PS2 game that doesn't look better.
Pokefag cope
congrats for reaching PS2 level
DQVIII unironically still looks better
the problem is that this area has like 3 time the pop rate of the rest of the game it's just a cluttered hell, be it 10 or 60 fps
Handheld mode has VRR at least
I know a lot of people didn't buy SV initially because of the performance issues and since we still have some months before Legends ZAMN I bet people that didn't buy it will get it on Switch 2.
SV will become the best selling pokemon game globally in a few weeks. I'm happy.
zoomed on the chars to people don't notice the emptiness of those old games
the only good post here
I'm happy.
Tendies are mentally ill
No wonder that they also defended the DiaPer shovelware demake
snoys
That's literally all you niggers can fucking say
BDSP permanently ruined pokeshit remakes forever but that's a good thing because it sold a lot and made le snoys le angry :ooo
You faggots have no fucking soul. Don't forget to buy the gen 5 remakes next year, this time only featuring exclusively the Unova dex + charizard + pikachu because small indie company pls understandu
I'm glad this game that needed a second console for it to actually do well will be the best seller
you people are the most genuine retarded people on Anon Babble and on Anon Babble buts thats saying something considering Anon Babble switched up on cyberpunk after a few months of patches and one anime (was still an okayish anime)
Tendies are mentally ill
They are, but the Pokefag subcategory is a whole "nother breed of embarrassing. They're partially responsible for how mediocre to dogshit this franchise has become, and they're perfectly fine with it.
I want 4k Perrin sexo
Dendra is the best base game girl
That's literally all you niggers can fucking say
LIterally from the dude who just said "Tendies" unironically.
gen 5 was already using lazy copy/pasted shit
gen 6 made something completely new
damn gen 5 was trash
Difference is, I was clearly replying to a mentally ill tendie while you on the other hand posted snoy without anything linking my post to sonyshit
As a nintendofag, I genuinely hate being associated with this fanbase this gen, objectively the worst on in gayming right now
I’m willing to bet that they actually did have an improvement patch ready to rollout on Switch 1, but Nintendo deliberately held it back to give Switch 2 an extra killer launch app
Nah, it died with ORAS and the interviews they gave showing they wanted to appeal to mobile players.
So the Switch 2 is what the Switch should've been at launch 8 years ago. Consolefaggots have stockholm syndrome kek
Original looks like a PS2 game
Now it looks like a GameCube game
Bravo, small indie game developer.
the entire selling point is that you can play an older game...better!
you'll defend this btw
2010
that shit looks worse than some late 90s titles, dude
I'm still waiting for the battle frontier DLC
Any second now, watch them revive the 3DS online servers just to upload the kino frontier DLC
Difference is
So pathetic, enjoy those PS5 exclusives!
PS5 exclusives!
Keep copping nigger. I'm on PC playing your Switch
exclusives
Proceed to post the next buzzword in your seethe list
mistah merriku....
I'm on PC playing your Switch
Most obvious snoy lie
Bluds blown away by an upscaled n64 game
BDSP permanently ruined pokeshit remakes
ORAStroons still seething at the game with actual improvements over gimmick shit.
servers revived
update dropped
fans around the world gasp in anticipation
it's Mega Flygon
But not really lmao. NEVER, EVER.
Literally who? What's with the gook names?
that was a great show
Did they make the cities/region better with stuff to do?
we're finally getting pokemon games that aren't held back by diabolical hardware limitations
I'm so ready for more peak.
It still looks like shit. Amazing.
DQ8 on the PS2 might actually look better than this.
How much does this game cost?
Nobody defends BDSP except shitposters, anon.
ORAS while not perfect remakes do a lot of things right. They may not be as good as Emerald but the quality of life upgrades and mechanics upgrades make it fun to play, and the fact it's actually a remixed version of Hoenn instead of just a 1:1 of the originals gives it points to be worth playing as well as Emerald.
You can play both ORAS and Emerald and feel a fresh experience in both. Sure ORAS may not be as enjoyable to most people but it's still a valid thing to do.
If you play BDSP all you're doing is playing Diamond/Pearl with a shiny (and that's arguable) coat of paint and if you're playing Diamond/Pearl you're already doing it wrong and should just be playing Platinum instead.
I still can't get over Pokemons with wheels and legs. This is so incredible dumb.
How do they even have spinning tire bodyparts
Put your glasses on
That looks so fucking good, can't wait to get my preorder sent
What's the original of this?
Wow, it finally hit 720p, it's practically an Xbox 360 title now.
Not gonna lie it's probably the one thing that stopped me buying the game. I get it, it's a game for kids, but that doesn't mean it has to be stupid.
SV is pure dogshit but you're genuinely retarded if THAT is what stopped you from buying the game
i want to see the shiny version of this since i used shiny Yzard in gen 6
SV area good games
Can you even make a "good" 3D pokemon game ? What made the 3ds and ds games good ? Was it our youthful outlook ? Maybe they gotta lean more on cel shading like in DBZ and Naruto games.
I would pay the 2.5 dollar extra for them to rework the HORRIBLE light engine and finally make the game colorful instead of dull as fuck. Just looking at Iono in game makes me sad
Yes, it's called legends arceus and scarlet
haven't bought a pokemon game on switch this generation.
legends did interest me at first but then the locked behind a paywall for certain savefiles and the mystery gift was lackluster and over.
Cool PS2 game!
Still looks like shit alright
Stadium and Snap
i hate this tumblr bitch
Snorlax should not be standing up
Xatu should be standing and showing 1 eye at a time
PS2 is the best console ever made so thanks.
Nintendiggers will defend this until their dying breath.
But enough about SV
I skipped those and went to Sun so that's where it died for me. But I believe you
Can you even make a "good" 3D pokemon game ?
What a stupid question. You can, yes, if you're willing to invest time and money (read: hire actually talented studios for the job), which isn't how TPC and GF like to operate.
What made the 3ds and ds games good?
Some (or even most) of them weren't even that good, so yes, there's a lot of nostalgia, but anything during the DS and 3DS eras was still better than whatever the fuck they've been doing since the Switch came out (barring spin-offs, of course)
Am I supposed to be impressed when it runs in 4K at high framerates in emulators?
Scarlet and Violet is not empty at all!!!
I will still never understand why they didn't just remake Platinum instead of demaking Pearl and Diamond. If you gave me Platinum with all the QOL of modern games, (not having to go to a PC all the time etc) it would be awesome.
Sorry but the technology to render pokemon in other colors was lost to time.
darkrai, shaymin, and manaphy/phione aren't required for a 100%
You can already do thus with emulator
>SV will become the best selling pokemon
Across two platforms*
Sorry, Red and Blue will still be king. Try again.
Gw1 has more soul in its pinky finger than any modern pokemon game ever will. youtube.com
Without trying to start a war; What does Palworld do better than Pokemon?
People say that it did everything Pokemon should be doing. But having played Palworld, a lot of the mechanics like throwing balls without transition into battle, crafting items and riding specific creatures were in Pokemon Legends. Obviously there's the whole "open sandbox building le epic base" but should Pokemon really become open world survival? Kinda prefer the turn based RPG stuff of Pokemon as opposed to having pals do slave labour.
My point being: What does Palworld do better than Pokemon as a monster collecting game? I concede graphics in Palworld are better, but that's true of any game which competes with Nintendo games.
I CAN DO IT ON MY 6K dollar PC OK
lmao
Palworld has sold more copies howeverthough
free gamepass copies
lolmao
What does Palworld do better than Pokemon?
Play a videogame for once in your life and find out?
i liked the personality of the creatures. them chillin in my pool or helping me to fire up a stove. also the slave labor was funny.
pokemon needs more interactions with the mons that can bring out their personality and lets you bond with them.
Complain that the switch version is shit
Complain the NS2 upgrade is better
Complain about Nintendo doing literally anything ever
You cunts just want to complain.
the blue one is a robot and the red one doesn't have spinning tires, it's a lizard neck frill thing that resembles a tire
the art style and environments look so bland
$350 console
I wish it was that cheap
didn't show a shot of the windmills
Cowards.
Hello yawnkek. Palworld still won. Gen 5 still won. Gen 2 still won.
Why did they have to make motorbikemons instead of four-wheelermons? ;_;
everyone wanting better pokemon games is a snoy
Take your meds. Remove your dilator.
I'm guessing they're not going to patch sword and shield? Or BDSP? Would be nice to play gen 8 at 60 fps.
They chose to have more pokemon on screen at once instead. Anyway since the Switch 2 still has less memory bandwidth than say, the ps4, pop in probably isn't going anywhere.
What does Palworld do better than Pokemon?
To me, the monsters have more utility outside of battle. They're not just a bunch of stats and text, they actually serve a purpose other than dogfighting, like... you know, THE ANIME, where electric types power batteries, water types put out fires, and fire types help you cook.
In the wild, they behave like wild animals, they have predators, they have prey, some are curious about you, some are aggressive, some are fearful, some don't give a damn. Some roam in herds, some are solitary, some like to hide... like, you know, again, THE ANIME.
I think Palworld sells the "creature" aspect better than Pokémon, like the Pokémon anime does. Side games like Pokemon Snap try to add this aspect to the games, but the mainline Pokemon games doesn't.
Was fun having more uses for the mons you caught rather than having them just sitting in Bill's PC.
leave-the-multibillion-dollar-company-alone.jpg, etc
Literally talk about having played both Pokemon and Palworld
Duuuhhhh maybe play other games GOT EM!
Holy retard.
That's a fair point. Some of the Pokemon games have dipped their toes in interacting with your Pokemon like amie, camping and they could come out in legends arceus, but it could be expanded upon with more interactions.
A big part of it was just having your Pals out and doing stuff. From following you around, fighting, aiding in trasversal, and working at your base, they were actual out and could be constantly interracted with.
While skeletons are likely to overlap on animations, Pal World styles on Pokemon by having the Pals actually do something instead of vibrating in place. Even if it's just rasing a paw or opening their mouth tied to a beam attack, it still feels like more attention than Pokemon has received.
That's what people are talking about when they say Pokemon has fallen behind.
My wife.
Same game, bozo.
You'd get raped and eaten alive on Anon Babble.
I missed the part where he listed his specs
they actually went out of their way to make megas look appealling through dynamic poses like they usually did with the World Tournament artworks
If there was one QoL update I wish would get romhacked into old games it's removing the need for HMs
Except you can get this performance with a 1070 which you can buy used for a pack of menthol cigarettes, keep coping though
The blue one is a transforming robot. Hardly the first time, gen 1 has a literal human-made computer program and a flying magnet robot.
SV worked just fine on my Ryujinx.
Sorry to everyone who bought the Switch.
framedrops
on a switch 1 game
running on the switch 2
what the FUCK is gamefreak on
I think this is an interesting comment because this is exactly what pokemon had before SWSH and it was removed as “quality of life”.
No i am not talking just about HMs
I hate hypocrites and people who ask for things about series they have zero interest in
Digimon still looks better
Jesus fuck, someone kill gamefreak.
It might be 60 but it's not a smooth sixty, there's some pretty noticeable frame pacing issues with judder even just running around the world.
At least visiting a lake doesn't cause a massive frame drop any more.
Top tier option customization. You can have randomizer and hard-core/nuzlocke right out the gate and enforced. The game is moddable where sex mod is a thing.
Bro, it has more soul in a pinky than 95% of games ever will, let's not pretend pokemon is a unique case here.
There are different kinds of people
le open world meme!!!!
gameplay
open world
customizability
interactivity with mons
sex appeal
performance
Despite what you hear Palworld is actually a shitty monster Training game which focuses more on gunplay and bulding mechanics instead of the interactions of the monsters and them being the main focal point. Anyone that tells you otherwise is an idiot trying to get at Pokemon fans, The games actually dont even compete with eachother but one merely takes its style from one and thats all.
if you like Palworld thats fine but dont come at me and say that its a good Monster trainer game.
Sniffa that body scent
So it seems people really liked the idea of your Pokemon companions being more involved, not to mention the additional details in interaction, making them feel more alive. Guess that's what makes Heart Gold and Soul Silver's following Pokemon kino: still limited of course, but nice to see them out following you and you're able to have little interactions with them. Weirdly kinda reminds me of Pokemon ranger where the Pokemon follow you aroind and would help you traverse the world around you.
I played SMT after a friend had been saying for years that it was "the harder and more adult Pokemon!"...I found it almost as easy. Maybe cause i'm use to games where you take advantage of the enemy type weakness? Still glad I played it, was fun. But said friend made a really good point that SMT at least lets you use the monsters you're not gonna use in the "PC" to sacrifice for better monsters. It's better than having them just sat there.
Can you even make a "good" 3D pokemon game ?
yes
Eh handing the player a load of bars to impact gameplay like that is just an abdication of game design. Nobody who does that has ever made a game with playing.
if you like Palworld thats fine but dont come at me and say that its a good Monster trainer game.
I agree with this
The games actually dont even compete
Even Nintendo themselves are acting like they are, otherwise they wouldn't be committing lawfare against the Palworld studio
Ranger is the best Pokemon game after all.
Sure...your 2000 dollar PC with parts that aren't matching the Switch 2 in price. You can't buy a 5080 for $450. Even then, you have to TWEAK shit for ages since 2021 with switch emu, which was built ONLY for playing botw at 60fps.
Exactly.
People focus too much on the RPG aspect of Pokémon and forget about the immersion and the "virtual pet" aspect. I want Pokémon to be not just creatures that I use for battles, but also beings that inhabit their own world and I got to interact with. Don't even need to be crafting and base building like Palworld, can be in other aspects too.
this fucking idiot thinks you need a 5080 to emulate a device that has all the power of an early 2010s mid range smart phone
I had 60 fps on a 1080 easily which I bought used for 100 dollars
please saars buy our game again it’s finally running above a silky smooth 15fps
Should have been like this at launch. GameFAG is a JOKE.
Can you even make a "good" 3D pokemon game ?
i would honestly say its polarizing divisive game with potential it's not perfect but honestly if you remove a few things from it and polish it up it could be a great monster tamer
Good means sales
We have a FIFA player here!
5 million off
Not gonna happen.
Palworld x Tamer interactions. It's a simple yet effective addition.
fifa and nhl are good games doebeit
Literally one tree model copy and pasted the entire game
That isn't even true, each area in Hoenn has its own type of vegetation
So right now this is literally the only proof of Switch 1 games running on Switch 2, nothing else has been shown.
Since Switch 1 games on Switch 2 have partial emulation involved, there's a possibility that they have to deal with shader cache generation like most emulators past GameCube do.
Or it might be that Game Freak's engine is just that shit, we'll see soon enough.
I just want the Mario RPGs on Switch 1 to get 60 FPS updates. Especially Paper Mario TTYD, but also Brothership, I dropped both because of the 30 FPS cap and not being able to emulate them at flawless 60.
This sounds like a (you) issue.
Pal* x Tamer
Nobody here is saying it is a better Monster Temer. People are saying it is a better "Virtual Pet Simulator" than Pokemon. Just read the comments.
So this is what they are copying now?
I dont know why you are replying to me. I don’t want what you want. I’m tired of people asking for pokemon to be something its not
Breeding doesn’t matter anymore
Abilities dont affect overworld anymore
IVs are trivial to max out now you don’t use some post game battle facility grind to do it and actually get better at the comp aspect
Game will never be balanced for exp share, there will never be a toggle for it either
Toggle for set removed as well
EVs are trivial to cap, you dont have to actually train your pokemon by battling others, just play the mochi minigame lol
But hey I’m glad you can make your starter the best pokemon it can be effortlessly, I am sure you will use it in competitive battles
Theres nothing else to take away
Theres nothing else to take away
Don't underestimate Gamefreak like that. They'll find a way
taking away pvp is the necessary next step. relegate that to that game they announced in the direct and keep updating that as needed and delete it from the mainline going forward
just play the mochi minigame lol
He actually plays mochi mayhem for EV mochis instead of just selling ability patches and buying vitamins
you do know pkm games are going to cost 80$ now right?
Lot of people hate digimon world because whole vpet sim aspect.
SV is a Switch 2 Edition, no?
That doesn't negate what I said honestly. What you said is also part of worldbuilding: breeding the best mons for competitions is something many animal owners do in real life, especially with horses, and should be a separate aspect from people who just want to experience the world with the creatures. Both can coexist, even if separated.
I kind of agree that "I want to take my single player team online and destroy people!!!" is stupid. Singleplayer and Competitive should be separate aspects.
You don't have to buy SV again, it will have a free patch on Switch2
why does nobody post the gamecube era?????????
col and gale of darkness were unironically kino 3d sprites
Because it was done poorly?
don't you have to buy the s2 patches for s1 games you already have
Feed them, clear their crap, train, and they die.
It's same as tamagochi.
This fucken guy...
Can't we just return to Pixelart
It finally looks like a real console game... a gamecube game
It's same as tamagochi.
...done poorly.
No, SV, and other games like Super Mario 3D World, Link's Awakening, ARMS, Big Brain Academy, Mario Odyssey, these are just advertises as having free updates.
These updates likely only amount to parameter patches for frame rate, resolution, and other things like draw distance, spawn limits, etc
Meaning they're running in Switch 1 backwards compatibility mode, which is stated to be partially emulated.
Since it's an emulation solution, it stands to reason that this could carry the same advantages (more processing power means more stable performance, ease of modding) and the same disadvantages (shader stutters, unexpected behaviours and imperfect compatibility needing specific fixes).
Switch 2 Editions up-patch the Switch 1 games to actually run in Switch 2 mode. The Switch 2 upgrade pack for Breath of the Wild is like 10GB, Tears of the Kingdom's one is much smaller somehow, but that could be down to engine differences as they run on completely different engines (TotK uses the Splatoon 2 engine).
That's just an educated guess until people get their hands on these consoles anyway.
its for kids
sadly almost every Nintendo game is largely bought by so y millenidroids instead of kids
It's simply not gen 8. Which is enough, really.
now
nigga your tendie cult worships metacritic and journos
Always changing the fucking goalposts. I didn't say it was impressive. Saying that it looks the same as the switch 1 version is a lie regardless of how "bad" it still looks.
col and gale of darkness were unironically kino 3d sprites
lol, the gen 1 and 2 mons straight-up reused the Stadium models.
These are late 90’s PC games anon
Is it just saying there's no texture popin?
he says in SV thread
AYO THIS PS3 LOOKS FIRE
They're this close to making an actually average pokemon game for a change. All they needed to do was upgrade their dogshit hardware.
Oh and fix the old as shit gameplay formulea.
Simply false. Everything pre XY was beautiful on the original console (not your 32 inch 4k monitor, not the bloated DS for fat americans, not your iPhone). Sun and Moon look better than any of the switch games and are arguably the best looking Pokemon games. Crystal looks fantastic on GBC, Platinum and HGSS, USUM, and every single one has good music.
Pokefags will always be the worst and most obnoxious fanboys. Even worse than FROMfags. They’re less aggressive than FROMtrannies but their copes are so delusional it beggars belief.
*puts on glasses*
Wow, It still looks like shit. Amazing.
Make cutscenes skippable and USUM are great.
Did they put in outfits that aren't just recolored shorts yet?
Why would you want to play dress up? The game is about Pokémon, not human outfits.
zoomer fails to understand a non-always-online game
complete mental collapse
TTYD 60 fps update when?
suddenly its the best huh
tendies really know no shame
my retarded friend, zoomers grew up largely on singleplayer games.
Pokefags rejoice, the latest pokemon game can finally be the gamecube quality title it was always meant to be
free game btw
you don't have to buy new consoles and all that jewish shit Nintendo is trying to shove up your ass.
yeah it looks as empty as you would expect from a free to play game...
I know you want chocolate but what about eating shit instead? it's free
No I won't
Gambling and chore simulators aren't videogames.
You faggots are worse than any tendie. I can't wait to see the meltdown that comes with the EOS announcement.
only mega that doesn't give me deviantart nam flashbacks just gets the higher res dream world art treatment
Better than nothing I guess.
Imagine if Pokémon devs just continued improving on the 2.5d style from Gens 4/5.
That still looks like dogshit
Woke dei blackrock shit killed pokemon
This is made by a gay Bara faggot furfag
this hatred towards people based on skin color is so, like 90s, man
you need to get with the times or, like, something
Genshin the Botw killer also totk killer
Yet, it looks better than anything GF has ever put out graphically. Your point being?
I'd go further than that and say that SV was planned to be a switch 2 launch window title but Nintendo decided to delay the switch 2 after seeing the switch's COVID sales and the chips crisis so Gamefreak had to hurriedly make their spaghetti code work on switch. Still doesn't excuse them and the garbage framerate of their game and managing to have even worse frame drops in their DLC areas.
I never saw a game where the speedrun of it had to be ran on the version with LESS skips (Violet has version-exclusive skips in area Zero) because that version was running so much better it made up for the loss of 30mn worth of skips (Miraidon, the mount in Violet, tanks the framerate of that version because of his reactors' effects).
lmao its so easy to trigger tendies
Gets called out
I was only pretending to be retarded
You're still a retard.
It's also the best gen 3- gen 5 Pokémon clone that isn't a romhack and still does enough on its own to feel like a major improvement over Pokémon rather than just a clone of gen 5. Shame it basically became a mobile game and wiped my 80 hour perfect hunting save on pc. Wasn't Etrian Odyssey drawn by a pedo?
IT'S TIME
I really wish they kept Mega evolutions. So many unused pokemon like that one benefited from it.
I don't even own a Nintendo system. I'm just too invested in the Pokémon franchise even though the last ones I played were Legends and Gen 6. Genshin players are incredibly obnoxious.
Those are 2002 graphics.
SV will outsell every PS5 game combined at the end of the day. Pretty crazy
Holy shit that looks awesome! Nintendo is King
This shit ain't higher than 720p. Disgraceful, Nintendo are the biggest kikes
Wow it still looks shit
it still looks like shit
LMAO
Show me the windmill moving at double digit FPS
No, Im so tired of faggots saying this. It introduced a bunch of nice shit. Trainer customization, diagonal movement, easy berry farming/EV grinding, etc. Sun and Moon got rid of HM slaves and tried to beef up the story, so it also gets a pass.
The first time there was no improvements at all was Sword and Shield. There was nothing it introduced that was good. It got rid of any sense of exploration too. It was truly the end on that miserable piece of shit game.
QOL improvements that modern games should have are not the same as features.
if they had an MMO or an actual great open world game, they wouldve sold 100M copies instead of 30 or whatever. it would be pokemon go summer all over again and more
it doesnt count
Lmao shut the fuck up, how is trainer customization not a fucking feature you absolute buffoon? How about fully 3D modeling the entire dex?
X and Y campaign sucked and the game wasn't finished but it was still alright. ORAS did more lasting damage to the franchise.
Sun and Moon were soulful but the plot was a cancerous tumor killing replay value and doubling down on the desolate postgame was a bad choice. But the game didn't feel like it lacked dev time like X and Y did.
Really it died with the decision to make Let's Go and half-ass Sword and Shield to be saved by DLC.
$20 upgrade btw on top of the $450 + tip you had to spend on the switch 2
3D modeling the entire dex
A downgrade, made a lot of mon's look shit, gives them poses that don't make sense like Snorlax the lazy pokemon always standing, gave them the excuse to use the same models forever, and now they won't put in as many Pokemon in games because of (pick your excuse here: filesize too big, have to check move animations on all of them, have to model new mons, etc)
3D was a killer.
They actually doubled if not tripled the spawn amounts on top of the framerate buff.
That's actually great since on the Switch you can only have a max of 15 Pokemon within a radius of you at all. Makes shiny hunting even easier too.
google.com
literally every single gba jrpg is a generational leap above ruby and sapphire. Stop being a nostalgia fag
Woah I must have missed this one, looks quaint. Will this be on the gamecube library?
X/Y felt unfinished(and it was based on the leaks from last year). Had a lot of neat build up and gameplay introduction but up until the 2nd gym badge, you pretty much seen everything the game has to offer and the road to the 2nd gym was pretty long. After which the game goes its usual routine of the gym being in the next town like the game just fizzed out.
Its incredible how they took the concept of true open world pokemon that fucking everyone has dreamed of since RBY and managed to make it the blandest shit imaginable
Why do adults play this baby game trash?
Clinging to their childhood that is never coming back
The dumbest thing is that they actually do have some thought behind the main towns and the areas like Tagtree Thicket having graffiti everywhere only to make the blandest mountains and biomes imaginable. Even SWSH had way more life in its environments.
Nintendo’s been coasting on that "King" title for years and people keep eating it up. Slap some bloom lighting and a cel-shaded tree in a field and suddenly it’s revolutionary. Don’t get me wrong, it looks comfy as hell, but let’s not pretend this isn’t just more of the same with a fresh coat of paint.
Pokemon fans are the FIFA fans of JRPGs
God damn Xenoblade X was an amazing game.
t. no gold symbols, low elo
should i play it before 2? i know it came out between 1 and 2
We won
those fucking fromtrannies and pokefags disagree with my opinions on videogames, these people are so awful
Why are you autists like this?
God damn how did we put up with the performance on the right
The game was fun to play, simple as that.
monolith soft need to save this franchise too
laughed desu
I dont know what this means
I'm still not paying $500 for a Mario machine unless Mario Maker 3 is announced.
I had erased from my memory banks the pokemon that looks like some sick diaperfur's hot wheels car.
Why do you make me remember these horrors.
They're taking the fucking piss with Lopunny's mega what kind of gooner shit is this
Supposed old 3DS reward
Mario Maker 3 WAS announced LMAO check Nintendo Life
MUH 3D BAD
Is this the most midwit take? I see it spouted over and over for different series, as if there havent been a million successful transitions to 3D
It looks just as shit as before
My emulator runs it better
unite is unironically the best pokemon game since explorers of the sky
I'm not used to seeing the lake not run at a single digit framerate.
my $300 laptop runs SV at 60fps 720p.
Fun fact: This is the first 60FPS Pokemon game since gen 3
Its open world grind slop for people with gaming addiction issues.
Did they add the shiny sound back in
Despite what you hear Palworld is actually a shitty monster Training game which focuses more on gunplay and bulding mechanics instead of the interactions of the monsters and them being the main focal point
i mean this is literally the point
it's not palworld's focus, that's what pokemon should be on the surface but palworld still gigamogs it in that regard despite being le edgy pokemon with guns
awful matchmaking
Busted pkm locked behind gems only to get nerfed when it's time to buy with in-game currency
Joke report system
Playerbase decline leading to bot matches
Casual modes are so limited and recycled
Cosmetics that can go up to 100$
Maybe the chinese version but even then no that game lost its way now
HAHAHAHA
but the game is fun though
and it looks pretty and all the mons get good treatment (not talking about viability)
that's more than 99% of pokemon anything
Have to wait for new hardware to carry your ass into stable fps
will probably sell a few extra gorillion anyways because pokemon is too big to ever fail
Fucking gamefreak
it could have been the best free pkm game maybe still is, but in terms of service its awful. I think pkm champions might beat it if they add those soulful animations we saw in stadium it won't
It still looks like ass, people just have obscenely low expectations for Gamefreak.
Palworld is popular with people who want Pokemon to be something it isn't. Palworld is fundamentally an open world survival crafting game, the monster training mechanics are literally just slapped on top. It was popular because it had the superficial aesthetic of Pokemon while actually belonging to a completely different and far more popular genre. I think it's very illustrative that all of Palworld's open world mechanics are cribbed directly from Pokemon Legends: Arceus, a game which did not sell 32 million copies. Normies didn't just want Pokemon to be a modern open world game, they want it to be a completely different genre.
tl;dr Palworld was popular because it ripped out the heart of Pokmon Legends: Arceus and replaced it with Minecraft.
Were those games predicated on "Catching them all" with a list of over 1000 creatures?
Is the implication here that it was originally designed for Switch2, and they dumped it out early for some reason? It’s hard to come up with good explanations for how it launched.
you completely ignored my post
your reply was worthless
which is stated to be partially emulated.
It's not emulation, is compatibility layer, same shit your windows do.
Here, I'll make it real simple. Palworld doen't do anything that Pokemon tries to do better. It just takes a whole bunch of things Pokemon had done two years earlier and transplants them into Minecraft. Then it sells because people only wanted a new skin for Minecraft to begin with.
XY is bad because of problems that have nothing to do with XY
You can pet the pals, already better than modern pokemon which got rid of it in the 3DS games.
Correction, it's the first full 60fps mainline game since gen 3. Several spin offs were 60 and Gen 5 had 60fps battles.
Craftopia came way before Pokmon Legends: Arceus, and PP took pokemon aesthic and recycle Craftopia. So what this anon said
sucks the game looked like dogshit and didnt run great because it was pretty fun
copesister...
Based.
, THE ANIME
But not the games where the only instances of pokemon being used as say a battery were instances where the villains were abusing them like electrodes in gen 2, kyurem in gen 5, the box legends in gen 6, nebby in gen 7, the gen 8 one I can't remember the name of.
Every single new gen 3D game has had more Pokemon than the 2D games.
Craftopia is the Minecraft slop game that they slapped Arceus' mechanics into, yes.
If palworld recycled mechanics from Craftopia they wouldn't be getting sued right now.
And no, the concept of throwing a ball is not a mechanic.
the ENGOODENING of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
that's a bad argument considering Pokemon is just Dragon Quest with SMT's mechanics slapped on
y slapped Arceus' mechanics
You're a retard
And so are you.
How does this ecosystem work
let's be honest gamefreak would still manage to make it look like shit even on PS5 pro.
waiting for the footage to show the Switch 2 version
20 seconds in I realize that IS the S2 version
Yikes
What's illegal with backup up and dumping your own games to an emulator?
This is made by a gay Bara faggot furfag
But enough about Incineroar.
question, how the fuck did pokemon get far worse since soulsilver?
they dont care cause people will buy any pokemon slop, but still.
It didnt get worse. Your "standards" got too ridiculously high. Higher than Duke Nukem Forever hype levels.
gamefreak still holding the Pokémon ip is like a sick joke that stopped being funny in 2009
Asking for a game to be finished and bug free at launch is "ridiculously high standards".
If you're going to make a comparison at least TRY to do it at the same time of day.
feel like playing soul silver
boot it up
remember it has random encounters
remember it has HMs
remember it has TMs that only work once and can’t be repeatedly obtained
remember it has no trainer customization
remember it has no ranked online
remember the breeding is shit
remember the EV training is shit
remember there's no ability capsules, patches, mints, or bottle caps
remember it uses lazy static sprites instead of pokemon that are actually animated
remember it has no party exp share
remember it has no box PC
remember all the railroading
remember the difficulty is even shittier than the newer games
go back to playing scarlet
Name 1 game that is bug free
told the concept of throwing a ball isn't a mechanic
proceeds to act like the concept of throwing a ball is a mechanic
The average palworld fan everyone.
Being turn based monster tamers doesn't mean that they're the same.
please delete this you're supposed to cock slurp the 2d games simply for being 2d
Didn't Sword and Shield remove random encounters and instead added pokemon onto the field at all times so you can know what you're fighting? That was a good change. And then SV added the option to go in any order you wanted and just explore, that was also a good change.
When you think about, Pokemon kept improving. I think people just don't want to admit it.
ZoomerGOD
Pokemon add things that other franchises already did for decades
"Pokemon is improving!".
I kinda miss the 2d Pokémon games. I just can't see myself playing this.
Right is a texture for an area you're not supposed to be in, why are you like this?
I like the battle outside a pokebattle mechanic.
>remember it has random encounters
repel
>remember it has HMs
catch 2 pokemon to cover all 8 HM
>remember it has TMs that only work once and can’t be repeatedly obtained
don't need every mon to know the same moveset
>remember it has no trainer customization
don't need it, crystal is perfect as she is
>remember it has no ranked online
showdown
>remember the breeding is shit
skill issue
>remember the EV training is shit
evs on a single player pokemon
evs on an already imperfect pokemon
>remember there's no ability capsules, patches, mints, or bottle caps
skill issue
>remember it uses lazy static sprites instead of pokemon that are actually animated
best looking sprites until BW the true GOAT
>remember it has no party exp share
just hack candies casual
>remember all the railroading
can do most of the gyms out of order, kanto especially is whatever you want
>remember the difficulty is even shittier than the newer games
shittier in that it's easier? you made a full list of things to make it so
shittier in that it's harder? skill issue
The Gen4 remakes were exactly that though?
remakes
BW
best looking sprites
LMAO
Good news, the update is free everyone!
Switch 2 is $499
game released 3 years ago
You can finally play the game you should've had at launch.
Trainer customization, diagonal movement, easy berry farming/EV grinding, etc. Sun and Moon got rid of HM slaves and tried to beef up the story, so it also gets a pass.
None of these are particularly big improvements compared to the gen 3 rehaul, the physical special split, hidden abilities and powers, you know, actual useful changes.
Hell berry farming wasn't half as fast as a maxed out join avenue and I would give you EV training but it was clearly unintentional given they didn't have 100% guaranteed horde spawns with honey/sweet scent until ORAS.
The first time there was no improvements at all was Sword and Shield.
Eh, overworld encounters and raids were a big step forward.
so instead I should play the pokemon games that...don't have the things that other franchises already did for decades?
I like how you threw hidden abilities in there just so you can pretend gen 5 added anything relevant
sex mod is a thing.
uhh where does one go to find this mod? asking for a friend of course...
Maybe you can stop being impressed by old mechanics and ask them to be innovative for a change?
Genuinely based. The older games have a lot of annoying shit in them to the point where it feels like a chore to play them sometimes. I played White 2 not that long ago and while I still really like it, it has a lot of those old pokemon nuisances that make everything slower. Fuck all that shit, I actually really like all the quality of life changes in the newer games.
It still looks like shit
But at least it doesn't run like shit on top of it
Then why did they removed the Infinite TM QoL?
it looks like a Switch game even despite the update, it's more like Game Freak is basically using Switch 2 to brute force it into running better, like how the New 3DS was using its spike in processing to brute force some game updates even though it was much less notable
They moved them to raid rewards so people would do them. I think it's as good.
Hell berry farming wasn't half as fast as a maxed out join avenue
sup sagefag
grind more slave
Why do you have an issue with EVs then
You get them naturally on your playthrough + you can also craft them with the Pokemon materials.
So like EVs
You're just saying it's one step forward and one step backwards
So like EVs
Wrong EVs
It's funny. At least with Gardevoir you can have deniable plausibility that the wedding dress is actually a battle outfit. Lopunny is just wearing ripped Yoga pants.
what do you mean?
No, it's just like EVs used to be before all the QoL
You get them naturally on your playthrough + you can also buy items to feed your pokemon with them
Between Generations III and VII, vitamins will also have no effect on an individual stat that already has 100 or more EVs
*HGSS
Playing the same garbage but at 60fps
That'll be $500 for the console and $80 for the game code, I mean cartridge
Nonironically, yes.
