Pokemon X and Y (No really that's what it's called)
12 years ago
So, Pokemon finally ran out of colors, and gem stones, and now they're arbitrarily picking letters, next time it will be Z and W and A B C and can't wait till they finally come out with Alpha and Omega already.
I almost half thought with Black and White 2, there would be more numbers. More development of the Pokemon in each generation.
Nope
Just throw another 150 at us! We'll just weed out the good ones for our selves.
I wish someone would make a 3rd party game of Pokemon, one with just the good Pokemon that everyone would know and like. But that will never happen because nintendo want every possible shred of profit to fund their consoles. Which, if you look, are not making as much money as they used to >=
So I can give you a review of Pokemon X and Y already! It's the same as every other Pokemon game ever made except for one or two gimmicky changes that wont be in any other Pokemon game whether they're good or bad changes. It's how it always is. They just... Volvo it.
What is Volvoing it? Well Volvo makes great cars, really reliable. But for some reason no one really likes them ( they are rather boring I guess) SO, they sell their cars to other manufacturers who simply tweak it up a bit and change the tags then sell it as a totally different car.
yeah, not the biggest secret in the world, and Volvo isn't the only one doing it, but that's how I feel with Pokemon games. I even gave Black 2 the benefit of the doubt, but no... it's exactly the same with a new coat of paint (unless your comparing it to black 1... then it's exactly the same no new paint)
I guess I wouldn't mind it, if they where not coming out so fast. I Just got Black 2, not even on the 2nd gym and, BAAAAAM "Here's X and Y go buy our stuff!" Just give me a bit of breathing room D=
So Doctor who. How is that relevant? Well just as an example, Doctor who was kinda popular way back when. And then he kinda fell off the face of the earth. Suddenly mid 00's he comes back out of no where! Now Doctor who is one of the most watched shows on TV and has a fan base bigger then Niel Patrick Harris and Charlie Sheen put together. And I don't think it would have been so popular without the break, and then the sudden and unexpected emergence. Relating that back to Pokemon, It feels a bit like they're trying to jam it down our necks. I think a Long break for Pokemon is what is needed now, like a decade, or twenty. that way all the old people talking about it (like me) can just forget about it, and a new crowd can be introduced without anyone there to yell at them for just buying from a greedy monetizing on every little thing company like Nintendo.
Also, FOR THE LOVE OF PIKACHU UPDATE THE SOUNDS ALREADY.
It's 2013, there is no reason Pokemon games should still sound like it's 1999. I mean if you want that 8 bity sound that's fine, there are lots of games that do it well. Check out Thomas was Alone for example, Kinda 8 bit sound, but definitely not like Pokemon, much more modern sounding as well.
I could continue to rant about this all day, But I'm going for Master Prestige in COD D= oh this is gonna hurt!

But heart gold soul silver where close enough to a yellow like game that I called that good enough, plus the Pokemon fallowed you around <3
It's getting ridiculous >= the only reason I even got Black 2 was because I had a spare gift card to game stop and the pre-owned wasn't all that much.
Also I think they tried to re-do stadium, a game called battle revolutions back in diamond in pearl era. But you had to own diamond and pearl and import Pokemon to use them in game >= bad move! I had all lvl 100s and destroyed all the competition because I just keep trading my old Pokemon to new games so they're fairly Uber'd up.
Screw it I'll say it. Where is my Pokemon Stadium for the DS! the DS can more then handle it, the software is ancient by today's standards, So just code in the other thousand Pokemon that came after crystal, and sell it. Some NEStalgia is good! But cramming out "main games" like their chocolates is just over saturating the market. X and Y, no sale nintendo.
Also, just a side note, I can't play on the 3ds, hurts my eyes with the 3d on and with it off, it's not any better then a dsi. If there are any really good games for the 3ds I'll wait for an emulator...Ironically, if you think about the games that are doing well on the 3ds...it basically is a very overpriced gimmicky emulator. I mean, Mario, Star Fox, LOZ, I could only ever play those on anything ever, phones, Pc, and obviously any nintendo system. Something New would be nice >=
