New Pokemon Direct will air tomorrow, Feb 27th

ei.png

After this month's earlier Nintendo Direct, it appears that we'll be getting an extra bonus in the form of a Pokemon Direct. There will be a seven minute broadcast that will likely discuss the future of the Pokemon series. You can tune in tomorrow at 14:00 GMT / 6 am PT. GBAtemp will cover the event when it airs live, so you can keep up to date on the latest reveals.

After being incredibly skeptical about Pokemon let's go, I can honestly say that I actually really enjoyed it. It's missing a lot of elements of what makes Pokemon great, but for people that are new to the series, I think it's a fantastic starting point. I would love to see the different generations as DLC in the future.

That being said, I really hope they go back to the old style for this new title. I do think that there are some things that Pokemon let's go brought to the table that would be great to see in the new title, such as being able to carry all of your Pokemon with you and being able to see the Pokemon on the overworld, but I really hope they go back to normal battles and catching. And bring back abilities, held items, etc

I'm not much of pokémon fan tbh.
So the assumption is that there should be a better pokémon game (for hardcore gamers) than the actual one?
Anyway 7 minutes seems plenty to anounce and showcase an all new title no?

Not even Let's Go's gameplay could ruin Johto, so bring it on!

I don't mind the gameplay, just that it's unbalanced. When you get out trainers to battle, you get out of money, and you get out of Pokéballs...

Either way, I wish they made a Johto expansion to Let's Go, rather than a standalone new game, so you kept your Pokemon.

  • 2min Pokémon Maker trailer (ETA beginning next year)
  • 2min Pokémon Snap 2 trailer + release directly after the Direct
  • 2min Pokémon TCG for NX trailer, full price title with online play and a long long story including a large world to explore and off-card-battle activities related to the world of Pokémon (no ETA)
  • 1/2min reveal trailer for new Gen (ETA winter this year)
  • 1/2min trailer where Reggie puts of his human skin to reveal he is a actual Pokémon and that the whole world of Pokémon exists in RL and Nintendo now is offering safari travels to that very world accessible by a dimension door somewhere in Japan (first journys start next month)
Maybe also a new PokéPark game if they want to go all-out with Pokémon this year, but a new PokéPark game seems rather unlikely to me ;)

I know it’s a long shot but I think they will be using this to reveal that all regions will be avaolable in the next game..

Their YouTube channel has been uploading a dedicated video each day about exploring each region

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
