would you pay for online pokemon vp?

>>31361574
That's a very captivating duck.

It looks so fat and fluffly. It's litte beady eyes and innocent, oblivious expression that only an animal can posses. So cute.

And no I wont pay.

>>31361574
That a fat duck

sadly, most people with

>>31361574
Nope. I'm making a switch to Showdown.

I don't do online Pokemon enough to pay just for it. Other games could be worth it.

>>31361574
5.99 a month for everything

Mainly for the online S/NES

If it's just for extra feature, maybe. If in general, haha hello Showdown my old friend.

I want to hug that duck.

>>31361774
you know showdown would probably be taken down if Pokemon went to paid online

just inject it lol

>>31361607
All of this.

I like the duck, and I won't pay. Fuck Nintendo, in a lovely way because I still love them.

>>31361574
I already plan on getting SMT V and Splatoon 2, so why the fuck wouldn't I

>>31361574
What choice do I have?

That said I'll probably just wait for Switch to be hacked and use the money saved on games to cover the online costs.

>>31361574
Nah. I barely use online anyways. I'll just become an injectfag every three years to fill out the Pokedex.

Pick one.

Nah, not gonna support half-assed online. I won't pay a dime until I see GF earn their shekels. The current online is a joke.

Showdown all the way.

>>31361850
>SMT v

Please explain

>>31361750
what?

4,99 per year.

Even a cent more and I'm out.

>>31362912
I was just naming what was on the top of my head, Splatoon 2 is the only one that has anything to do with the online

Makes me feel like not buying the Switch on principle, because pay for online is just a really fucking jewish thing to do.

I don't want to pay just to trade pokémon or play Monster Hunters, especially because Nintendo is not known for being hack-proof

Probably gonna skip this one, and watch a lets play

>>31361901
See>>31361827

>>31363413
You're still not making a point. If Showdown goes down, some other service will pop up. Nintendo will never win the war against fan projects, because it's not illegal to start them, only to continue them after C&D'd.

To be honest, probably yes.

Obviously not.

I buy nintendo handhelds for pokemon. That's really it, all the other games I play on them are just bonuses, I'd be good without them, but pokemon is what I really enjoy.

That said there are a lot of problems with this.
>paying 300$ for a console is way too much
>paying a fee to access online shit is unacceptable
>games will probably be more expensive too

If they don't drop the price and the subscription fee I guess I'll have to stop playing pokemon.

that duck doesn't look real honestly

No, but I'll buy it for MK8, Spla2n, Arms and various other online games

>>31363654
that's a very rude thing to say to that duck
what is wrong with you?

>>31363662
i've lost all sense of meaning in my life :(

>>31363670
get well soon

I wouldn't consider it until they have an online format that lets me use 6 pokemon. Even still probably not

That is a terribly charismatic duck...

I already use Showdown for Pokémon battling almost 100% of the time. This is just going to raise that to 100%. I mainly get Pokémon games for the single player, and the single player has gotten gradually worse since the 3DS launch, so I might just skip the new games entirely and only play them when the Switch can get emulated or you can buy a used one for $50 and then hack the shit out of it.

Paid online is cancer.

Chances are high I would not.

>>31363000
This
No Switch for me

>>31361574
I will probably get online for a few other games, so yes pokemon kind of. But I play pokemon for the single player anyway. Also I think I already am with Bank

Oh wow that duck has a nice shape actually.

They would have to add a whole lot more to the online interface and content than what we are getting this gen.
The thing is, right now it FEELS very free. I can't see myself paying for GTS+Wondertrade+random battles. Those features just feel like they count as going towards the price tag of the game itself.

JUST for Pokemon? No. And i already got burned out on Splatoon 1, so 2 isn't a selling point for me.
Maybe if they release something else worth shelling out online service for.
And no, some emulated SNES/NES freebies don't catch my attention.

>>31361574
Probably just long enough to get the version exclusives and trade evos (assuming Gen 8 is on the Switch). It sucks but so does having to wait for a next instalment. For battling there's Showdown

Wondertrade would be kill

>>31361574
Ahahahah oh goddamn never and ever

>>31361574
That's a cute duck.

The duck's not THAT cute.

Worst thing about paid online is that it will be free when the console is released as they said. I bet they won't announce the price until you have already bought the console and feel tempted to actually pay it, and it won't be 5 usd anon, it won't

>>31361574
No.

>>31361574
oh wow what a cute duck

Nope, if they're going to be greedy then I'll be more than happy to watch this franchise die

No.

I would pay a good bit for that duck, though.

Why is everyone going nuts about this duck

>>31361574
no, I don't play it much anyway

That's a nice, cuddly looking duck. I feel like holding it would ease my depression for a short blissful while. But as for the topic at hand no, I wouldn't pay for online Pokemon.

>>31361817
Who is the man in the picture?

No. Anyone willing to pay is a fag

I want to pet_ that duck

Obviously no.
I would prefer the franchise to stay away from the switch at this point, but if I have to stop playing pokemon for a while, so be it.
Ducks are horrible animals by the way, don't be fooled by its look.

Jim Halbert, from the Office

>>31365845
it's a duck, dogg

>>31361574
If they completely overhaul the experience into something different? Yes. If they actually go console then they need to step up their game and have actual lobbies with real players in real time.

Would I pay for what we are currently using? Fuck no.

>>31361574
If it means less "Celesteela for a Spearow" on gts then yes.

>>31366371
No guarantee it will.

Also, why does that happen?
