As for ultra sun and moon, i dont really consider as a super version
Idk how to consider it though
Maybe as how sun and moon should have been from the beginning
As for b2w2, its a sequel, not a super version
Super version usually have an emblematic pokemon too
For example, super version of black and white would be gray/grey, kyurem
Super version of x and y would be z, zygarde

You see my point?
Pokémon Z never happened

1. Holy crap the guy's backpack is legit large enough to hold everything you'd need for a journey like that...
2. Sword is going to be the more popular one I can feel it
3. They must have been asked to make this relatively last minute. They haven't had time to make higher-quality models; they used in-game models for the new starters. They don't usually do that.

The grass is detailed, the fur isn't. It makes me slightly uncomfortable.

The Switch popularity caught Nintendo with their pants down and they do want a "real" Pokemon game on the Switch so they can finally kill the 3DS/2DS already.

Unless they figure a way to transfer stuff from the Pokebank to the Switch, Gamefreak is gonna anger lot of people.

The fact that ninty doesnt seem to come up with origional names that dont sound like a 2 year old named them, and they come out with a new pokemon game. Oh I do hope the names have been better then what ive seen so far.

Any way someone can get to work on a day 1 mod where we can either choose from any other set of starters or even a magikarp these guys are pretty lame.

For those of you wondering, sarcasm on the first half and on the second half i mean it cause i cant see myself actually choosing any of the three. Hopefully they have decent evos cause if not ill probably be shoving the starter into the last slot/pc as soon as i find a cooler pokemon.

Well im hyped for this for sure, I guess Let's GO was just something to keep us busy while they worked on this.
Idk, Lets go is still good enough to receive jotho and other regions as expansions

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
