>using the GTS, online services, and event Pokemon are now going to cost money
T-thanks Nintendo
>poorfags on suicide watch
But it isn't. Online feature is switch exclusive. Also it sounds like that bastardized 3g shit the vita had
>>31361673
That is if we even get a Pokemon game for the switch...
>>31361673
pretty obvious were not getting a pokemon game on switch anyway
I'm more worried about
>2 to 6 hour battery life
This shits gonna be about as portable as the Game Gear.
>>31361685
>supporting a shitty practice
I have the money but like hell I'm paying this shit, bet you also pay for the bank like a good goy
>>31361704
But anon how often do you actually take your 3ds outside?
>>31361704
I thought Game Gear was a girl
>>31361696
Masuda said we are though
>>31361708
>charging for server maintenance is a shitty practice
Fuck this meme.
>>31361731
no, at best he said theyre considering it
>>31361720
...daily? It's my key to surviving RTA rides.
>>31361673
>he legitimately believes a main pokemon game is coming to the switch
>$55 a year just to Catch Em All
Nope, that's it. I'm done.
Ban me now, mods. I've been on this ride since Gen 4, but this broke the fucking straw on the camel's back.
I no longer have any incentive whatsoever to perform such a feat.
>>31361673
Just wait for a CFW like everyone else
>>31361731
it's gonna be Pokken Tournament
>>31361744
This
It's pretty obvious where Pokemon will be heading next after Pokemon Go
>>31361761
nice
>>31361708
>replying to bait
>>31361735
it is when it won't happen, nintendo online was always shit and that won't change, sony online is still shit even after going suscription in the ps4
But you get to RENT one NES/SNES game a month OP! Isnt that awesome?
>>31361748
>Gen4
GEEZ. I'm 23. How young are the people on this board? I started with Gen1.
>>31361795
>have to download some shitty smart device app to use online lobbies and chat
This can't be real
>>31361753
>thinking CFW can get you past a paid service
>>31361748
>This service is only for Nintendo Switch. It does not affect Wii U or Nintendo 3DS systems or online play.
Bro, chill the fuck out.
>>31361819
Of course, but you can invest the money saved on games to cover the online costs
This will be my master plan for this (shitty) new console generation
I mean, having to pay a fee for online play outside of wi-fi is pretty shitty, but at least I can laugh at all the hackfags who now have to pay a fee with me instead of cheapskating their way through life and laughing their smug little script kiddie asses off
>>31361846
I hope you know that hacking consoles takes considerably longer than handhelds, not even worth waiting for
>>31361673
>Next Pokemon game is going to be on Switch, r-right?
>We won't have another BW2 situation r-right?

just because he didn't develop every Pokemon game doesn't mean he can't talk about the series in general
>>31361880
SM already runs like shit
>>31361748
i have to agree with this dude.
there is literally nothing worth paying 60 bucks a year to play online on a nintendo system, and pokemon will inevitably come to NX since it is a handheld... so this just seems completely fucking retarded. 60 dollars just to be able to "trade pokemon online" is so beyond stupid
im done. fuck it.
>>31361952
>I only play one game so it's not worth it
speak for yourself
>>31361748
>>31361952
see you tomorrow, anons :)
>>31361972
To justify the cost you'd have to be utilizing multiple servers on a routine basis monthly, otherwise you're overpaying. $10~15 per game per month is the maximum you should pay for any online game. $60 a month means you are paying for 4-6 games' worth of online play each month.
If you don't have at least 4 games that you routinely play and enjoy, don't buy the online service. You're getting ripped off.
>>31361934
Totem battles are torture on the old 3ds. I'm not buying a n3ds for just one game on a dying system. If S/M was announced for the Switch as an enhanced port with better graphics and performance I might buy it.
>>31362019
>60 a month
what
>>31362040
I'm pretty sure that's the figure that was quoted, but if you've got better info feel free to correct me.
At any rate, $10~15 per game per month is what you SHOULD be paying.
>>31361872
Not Nintendo systems
Wii U took about as long as the 3DS to crack (~4 years), some features (like Wii piracy) even less than that
Switch seems to be using the same or very similar specs as Wii U
I'm giving it two years before we start seeing the first flashcarts
>>31361748
>$55 a year
Jesus Christ, the games are already expensive as hell. The only multiplayer game I played frequently on the Wii U was Splatoon. I'm going to commit sepukku if I can't play Splatoon 2 without paying even more money
>>31361972
>he thinks nintendo still makes games
this isn't 1985-2012 anymore anon. literally all nintendo have for "online multiplayer" is fucking mario kart
>>31362122
...and Splatoon....
.... and Smash Bros....
........ and anything else multiplayer online...
Damnit I'm too drunk to argue with dipshits. look the games up yourself, faggot.
>>31362122
There's more, but honestly not much more. It's pretty much MK8, Sploon, and Sm4sh. I think Pokken also sees some online play, too.
>There are people so cucked they will defend and buy paid online
>>31362221
Hey, works for billions of Sony and xbox fags.
>>31362221
>There are people so stupid that they can't think of any insult better than "cucked", and will defend this.
>>31362197
Those are top 3 selling games in Japan for wii 3
>>31362246
Yes, and? Justifying an expense for 3 games, when those games all have relatively exclusive playerbases, is pretty stupid.
>>31361720
People would take it outside more if they knew it'd survive their trip
