More like the yesterday of gaming since this is pretty much the exact same concept as pokemon bank (monthly fee included)

i wont bother with this until the current games support the full pokedex.

That's a big jump from Pokemon Bank, jeez!

Edit: I Mean pricing. Everything else not so much...

Fortunately though you don't have to do it for a full year. Which I never liked with Pokemon bank because I'd just use Bank once or twice, then not touch it again for another year or so, and then have to resubscribe just to use it again once or twice.

Seems like a dumb way to cash grab. That one year premium cost is bonkers.

Keep sucking their dicks hards, pokefan fellas.

If there was more than one generation that supports the bank Home than i’d say it’d be worth it just for easier transfers but right now i definitely agree. Especially with that price, plus to use things like cloud saves (if it even supports that...) youll likely also need the NOS.

I would get behind a bigger generational support structure or at least something a bit meatier than the $15.99. When Nintendo online costs five more there are issues.

You still have to pay for the subscrition in order to trade. The "free" part its just a trap to get demented people.

Also, how wonderful to see that GTS and other pokes are now a paid feature. People have to be that dumb to support them with all that cashgrab.

Just remember that you need to pay for the Nintendo online service, pay for Pokebank and then pay for Home. But after all that its fReE!1!

Pokemon Bank and Poke Transporter will be available at no cost for a month after Pokemon Home releases

The upcoming launch of Pokemon Home will be celebrated with a little promotion. After Pokemon Home is released, Pokemon Bank and Poke Transporter will be available at no cost for a one-month period. Players will be able to bring over creatures from various Pokemon series games using these two...

How is this not included for free with the Switch Online subscription?

 

[Glacia]

For 16$ a year they still cant provide unlimited storage lol. What a joke.

 

[Nikana]

I dont get it...whats the point of the application plus pokemon bank?

Edit: I mean more why are they two separate things?

Money.

 

[VertigoOA]

You’d think releasing two versions of the same game was enough rape.

 

[Eevee86]

I only planned on using to trade my stuff to new gens, which appears to be free now, so I'm happy.

 

[Grinchy]

Why blame them instead of the people who keep giving them money? At some point, people are responsible for their terrible decisions. Even Pokemon fans.

 

[Ryu Kaiba]

I'm so beyond done with Game Freak.

 

[RE2_Apocalypse]

Nintendo went full greed (IOI) on Pokemon...
(If you catch this reference, nice job.) and this continues to showcase that. Like I told a friend; anyone that support this practice is a sucker simple as that.

Serebii guy is defending his beloved company as usual.

Pokémon HOME details announced: free and paid subscription, Switch and mobile app, GTS is back

None of which is my problem.

Maybe it's just because I don't play Pokemon games anymore, but this seems like a stupid feature to me

 

[McCheese]

The number one priority for me is that if my hardware dies, my time and effort is saved and backed-up.

This does nothing to protect my saves, I can transfer pokemon out of my game and into the cloud, but the moment I transfer them back to my switch, they are gone forever should my switch break or get stolen. If anything this makes it worse, as I can transfer them from platforms that do have cloud-backups (pokemon go) to my switch, and now end up losing them.

Until Nintendo can implement cloud saves that actually save important shit, they can fuck off with this.
