Shorty

The Vita has been cracked open to play homebrew and emulators. I wonder if this will bump up system sales :p

I see what you're saying, I should ban @ReZourceman

Not sure mate. I'll ask my 9 year old niece

Urr I really wanted this game until I saw Z-Moves, what is this cheesy crap :x They look like power rangers

I don't even know what to say That picture in the original post embodied him perfectly in my mind, his enthusiasm and love for Nintendo games seemed unmatched but his attitude so agreeable. Often people just stop posting here and I tend to assume that they've just gotten too busy or left us behind, but sometimes I do wonder if the reason is actually much worse. Rest in Peace, Chris. I hope N-Europe was a source of enjoyment in your life.

A few people chatting about it in the Netflix thread http://n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=33435&page=5 Nearly finished it, enjoyed it a lot! Also won a lot of points showing it to the girl I'm seeing who's big on classic sci-fi, horror and Stephen King :p

If you joined at the Defeat screen then you're only a few seconds from the select a hero screen :p

Have they stated a reason for taking away battery save mode? It was handy, stopped my device getting too warm and seemed to conserve a little battery when running alongside Spotify. And lowered the capture rate? How about you fix the things that are broken before you start straying into nerf territory. I wonder if this will get any traction in the media. Normally when devs start to mess up a game you love, complaining about it feels like shouting at a wall. But PoGo is a lot bigger....

Well, I would really recommend not doing it it corrupted my save on the original card. Maybe all my saves....

This is a trailer that came out at E3 and I don't think it was used in a TV commercial, so sorry to blur the line but to keep it on topic, at the very least it is re-using the music posted above. I have to post it because it must be one of my most rewatched trailers of all time. We hadn't had a new Zelda for some time and I was sold by every facet of this game immediately. Watching this brings back dem feels, dat anticipation.

Oh that's a shame. Just found the L+R easter egg last night though so that's pretty cool Can anyone tell me, if I put a second memory card in my 3DS can I redownload a VC game and effectively have a second save on Pokemon?

Like I said, 64 Pokemon found this way :p I only used the map once because a Pokemon I wanted was on the nearby list but impossible to track down. You have a set amount of time til it despawns and it could take hours to go down every road within the 3 step radius. I know I'm not the only one who has used it out of the people I know playing Irl. What about on here?

How did you see the Pokedex entry for Pikachu before you found one? Ironically just found this on my way home, Professor Bob will be happy to know without the use of the map...

Sure. I bet in the original games you never once looked up where to find a specific pokemon. You just crossed your fingers and hoped that pressing up and down in Viridian Forest for half an hour would eventually net you a Pikachu. PS, sometimes just saying "lol joking" doesn't make what you're saying less rude.

Well, I am at 64 and only one have I actively gone after using the map, a Kadabra that appeared near my house (which normally has nothing but Weedles and Pidgeys). And I would've gone for the Wartortle if not in working hours. You have 30 types, but if it ever came down to that one last one that you needed, and the 3-step system was still broken, bearing in mind that's the intended method of playing the game, you wouldn't do anything about it? Not sure how you can consider a tool that uses Niantic's publicly available API to map pokemon to be cheating, although I consider it against the spirit of the game - if it was working properly.

Perhaps you don't understand how the game is meant to work? There's meant to be an indicator that you're getting closer to pokemon, but it has been offline since almost when the game began. Without it, all you know is that the pokemon on your screen are within 1km, in any direction. How are you supposed to search for them, in the mean time, without the map? If I was a cheater, I'd have all the pokemon by now by spoofing my gps.

You are right, but I was looking at the map. If the distance guides weren't broken, I wouldn't be using it but... what can you do

There was a Wartortle down the road just now but my boss wouldn't let me go get it. Well, time to start looking for a new job.

Backers who spent over £20* are going to get Toybox access on Steam sent out soon. From their mailer: * I believe this is the case, not sure if there was also an opt-in.

Hold on a second. U wot. *fires Sonic 2 back up*

On Gameboy VC games, is there no option to run them in Super Gameboy or GBC modes to get a bit of colour? Can't find it (or any options really).

You can filter out pokemon you don't want on pokevision but still, all those pidgeys and stuff would net you a tonne of xp, loads of easy evolutions.... Where I am there's typically about 2 crap pokemon within a mile.

This game is so rad. I got up this morning specifically to catch a Kadabra. Then there was a Wigglytuff nearby but I cba to go back out again :p Currently saved up a bunch of pidgeys and ratattas for levelling up with a lucky egg active. Couple more zubats and weedles and I'm ready to go Keep going a longer way home to get more pokestops... Really wish they would roll the distance services back out. A lot of people will never have even experienced the actual searching aspect. Now so many people are using the map that they probably won't go back when the ability returns. The hype and nostalgia this game brings (and a well-timed discount) prompted me to buy Pokemon Blue on Virtual Console.
