[Falchion]

So they mentioned it's going to have a new story but I wonder if the whole thing will be new or it'll be the base game with new story content on top.

 

[Sgt. Garlic]

Seems like the laziest "third version" yet.

 

[Phamit]

Oh boy, Eurogamer and all those leaker digged quiet a hole for themselves

 

[paragonpro]

Its like Nintendo and the pokemon company are actually clueless...but at the same time, like most ds developers they aren't experienced in making hd titles and an hd game, even a port probably isnt a quick turn around for them. I got hyped when they announced gold and silver, then i realized its not coming to the e shop that the switch has yet to recieve and likely wont recieve until next year...fuck they better have some good announcements at e3 because im pretty pissed right now

 

[Forkball]

Game Freak just turned heel. No Switch version, no Crystal. Decidueye was the only good news.

Was this posted? I don't even care anymore. What's Yokai Watch up to?

 

[NippleViking]

Which was better: Final Fantasy 7 teaser turning out to be a port at PSX, or this?

 

[ArchedThunder]

I don't like how they just revealed the logos, that awful snippet reel and then nothing more. But we get 5 minutes of live action Pokken.

It almost felt like they didn't even want to show the Ultra games.

 

[anotherVegan]

BW2 added so much content, it was totally worth it. I'm excited.

 

[Kouriozan]

Why is everyone mad ad Eurogamer?

They bet their credibility on Pokémon Stars Switch exclusive for 2017.

 

[RRockman]

Why blade liger zero?

Nvm I get it now.

 

[VendettaRed07]

Moral of the story: never expect Nintendo/GF to do what you expect them to do.

They did pretty much exactly what I expected them to do and pretty much exactly what they said they would do several months ago

 

[Siege.exe]

Well, at least I get to save $300 this year I guess. :/ I was looking forward to having a much better looking Pokemon game, but oh well, not like I'm not gonna buy it.

 

[Deadpool_X]

Is this like BW2 or more like Y/C/E/P?

 

[RainbowIslands]

Stars DNE i guess (or shelved for later).

Interesting how they're continuing the "Third Title Legendary Pokemon equips onto the previous two" thing from Gen V. I'm.... not too big of a fan of that. But Ultra-Solgaleo does look better than U-Lunala...

Ultra Sun/Moon is a fitting name, considering Ultra Beasts, tho.

Day 1, as always...

 

[Currygan]

...then put it on both?

So they cannibalize each other? Nah

 

[Marvie_3]

Bought Moon but I'm not wasting money on Ultra Moon.

 

[maxcriden]

It's coming. But this make unclear that it'll be this year. Not sure Nintendi willing to lose money on this 3ds versions by announce it this E3.

Yeah, it is a real question mark now, more than ever. I didn't expect this. Perhaps if we get nothing this year we will get a brand new gen on Switch next year.

 

[fredrancour]

Probably gonna pass. Now that I've got handheld that's more comfortable to hold I might be done buying new 3ds releases

 

[takriel]

RIP your credibility, Eurogamer.

 

[Weebos]

Game Freak just turned heel. No Switch version, no Crystal. Decidueye was the only good news.

Necrozma armor, interesting.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

...then put it on both?

How bout they use that time and resources to make next gen instead?

 

[Blobbers]

sigh

 

[stan423321]

Moral of the story: never expect Nintendo/GF to do what you expect them to do.

If you expect them to do what you don't expect them to do instead, they will then do what you expect them to do, no?

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Haha, I'm not even mad.
There's always the one obvious thing that everyone wants Nintendo to announce but somehow they never do. It's pretty funny, honestly.

 

[True Fire]

Sun and Moon were the worst mainline Pokémon games by far, and these might be the first Pokemon games I don't end up buying after seven generations.

TPC has really sunk the mainline series. It's unfortunate that its popularity is growing while they're putting the minimum possible effort towards making good games.

What even was that trailer? Horrible.

 

[Scrawnton]

Why is everyone mad ad Eurogamer?

They reported about seven months ago that they were told a Switch version of sun and moon is being developed and they said it was happening. And now here we are.

They also said Mother 3 and GCN VC was happening soooooo...

 

[Kneefoil]

Well, now I'm doubly glad I didn't buy Sun or Moon. Still waiting for Tom Phillips to clarify if he thinks these are Stars, or if we should still expect a game on the Switch.

 

[iFirez]

So the Legendaries are both fused with Necrozma - creating Ultra forms... interesting.

 

[entremet]

Third Versions rarely change platforms. I guess that's the rule.

Still Gen 7.

Gen 8 will be Switch no doubt.

 

[Kickz]

Switch where Nintendo????

Damn it..

 

[jorgejjvr]

So same game for same system

Nice

 

[nubbe]

Remake last years game
fucking trash

 

[Reptars Revenge]

Game Freak just turned heel. No Switch version, no Crystal. Decidueye was the only good news.

Ugh Pokémon bondage and submission.

 

[JRBechard]

Weird how predictable GameFreak is, they did the same thing with B/W and 3DS

 

[sinonobu]

I'm making insane prediction that Switch ver will be announced @E3.

 

[Ydelnae]

They look tragic. Who did this? Even the awful Kyurems looked better.

 

[ArchedThunder]

I don't like shitting on Pokemon designs, I'm a huge defender of many hated designs myself... but...
Jesus Christ these are awful.

 

[HOSKINGJ]

Is there not a chance they're saving a Stars announcement for E3?

 

[Donniewahlberg]

Looking forward to this, Sun and Moon were great games and the 3ds is still one of my favourite consoles. I presume I'll have Mario on Switch around the same time so it'll be a good holiday

 

[Daemul]

I don't get why people are saying that Eurogamer were wrong about Pokemon Stars?

Stars was a codename, Pokemon UltraSun and UltraMoon ARE Pokemon Stars.

They only thing Eurogamer got horribly wrong was that it was exclusive to the Switch.

 

[Living the Dream]

These "wait for E3" comments are borderline idiotic. Nintendo is NOT going to reveal a new Pokemon game that will over shadow Ultra Sun/Moon. You won't see a Switch Pokemon until 365 days have passed. Give it up.

 

[NSESN]

I somewhat feel this will bomb. BW2 didn't sell that well with a bigger install base and 3DS retrocompability. 3DS popularity is falling at much faster rate than DS. GF lack of courage to move on might bite them in the ass now.

 

[Kissenkopf]

Yet again, nintendo disappoints everyone

Now Nintendo has to do something with this and in the other thread everybody says Nintendo has nothing to do with the choice of the platform Game Freak releases their games on. So what is right and what is wrong?! Does ot depend of the announcement and if it is good or bad?

 

[ugoo18]

At least have a damm Switch port ffs, why must it be locked to the 240p dinosaur of the ancient 3DS. At least with B2W2 there was BC to make swallowing that pill easier, a literal upres port with the bare minimum effort is better than this crap.

 

[Netto-kun]

Just going to take a wild guess and say the new looks on Solgaleon and Lunala might have something to do with in-game solar/lunar eclipse or something similar events.

 

[Mathematics]

Someone present Nintendo with the "how to make 30 million Switch in 3 months" plan. Hopefully GameFreak will make our Stars game then

 

[Zedark]

I'm not sure if this was addressed by anyone but at 3:15 mark of the trailer the footage of ultra sun/ultra moon seems just to good for 3ds...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue-CBOrLnb0&t=6s

That looks pretty high res, strange. Not really capable of being hopeful for a Switch version atm, though

 

[RikuDawn]

Hahaha. What a load of shit. RIP Eurogamer.

 

[atbigelow]

Sorry Nintendo, your 3DS system is too uncomfortable for me to play anymore so I'm not going to get this. Release an RPG for a system that has ergonomics and I'll bite again.

 

[TheDinoman]

Haha, I'm not even mad.
There's always the one obvious thing that everyone wants Nintendo to announce but somehow they never do. It's pretty funny, honestly.

Reminds me of the SSB4 DLC hype period where everyone thought Wolf was sure to come back and he would be announced at the last Smash presentation in December.

Whoops.
