I voted yes but I really meant I'd "buy" it.
>>33129243
Absolutely, I'm hyped as fuck. I hope it delivers.
Where's the don't know/not sure option?
By No, I meant I'll get both from Free shop day 1.
>>33129262
Yes, you got it right. You're not buying it.
>>33129251
You got it wrong, you're not buying it.
>>33129257
Third one

>Buying anything after the shitshow that was X and Y.
>>33129286
>buying anything Pokemon related
>>33129243
Yes because i get a discount for $29.99 from gamestop.
>>33129243
>no citra option
>>33129325
>Buy it
>then dump the rom onto computer
>>33129290
>buying anything
Fail pole, OP.
Here, fixed:
http://www.strawpoll.me/13542465/
I'm waiting for user reviews not critic reviews to buy it
>>33129426
None of those options. I'm only interested in it. I'm still buying it because im getting it for cheap. My real hype is for the switch games.
>>33129426
>>33129243
>No "don't know, waiting for more info" option
>>33129483
Thats called "not voting until you have the more info".
>>33129243
Of course I'll buy it. I mean, I fucking dealt with how shitty D/P were so I don't see how these could be any worse.
>>33129512
>implying we'll get info before this thread is archived
>>33129517
The thread will be archived, the strawpole won't.
>>33129514
> I don't see how these could be any worse
That sounds like a challenge.
>>33129521
For posterity's sake.
>Yes, day one (44%)
>No (25%)
>I'll buy it eventually, but I don't care right now (18%)
>Yes, in the first three months (13%)
>>33129558
56% not buying first day
>>33129567
Good.
I want these games to flop hard. Maybe then Game Freak will start giving a fuck again.
>>33129593
Japan is where a flop will lead to change. Checking 2ch hype ain't there
>>33129593
>again
lmao
it's the first time in a decade that development time of a main game was actually focused on improving/polishing it and on features that might only cater to core players rather than casuals.
why on earth would you not buy USUM
>>33129731
Because those games had something to build on.
Ultra sun and moon is building off a bad game. They might make it decent but it ain't another 40 dollars
I was going to make a post describing all my great expectations of US/UM, but, hangon, gotta go watch another cutscene, brb.
>>33129731
Because it's been a decade since we got third versions. Because the last 3 set of games have been a disappointment. Because i don't believe Gamefreak can actually make a good game.
I don't see a single reason right now why i should be thinking about buying it.
Maybe I'll be wrong and they'll be good. Actually i want to be wrong, i hope i am wrong. If they somehow turn out to be good games I'll gladly buy both versions.
Pirating it unless it turns out to have actual effort put into it (it won't)
>>33129243
I'm not buying it, they don't deserve my money with the garbage they've been shitting out since XY. I'll pirate it instead.
>>33129593
Watch as GameFreak blames third versions in general for being why they sold poorly and not learn anything from their mistakes with weighing marketing filler over quality content. Gen 8 will be Sun and Moon all over again but without the third versions or remake tie-in.
>>33130078
Regardless if sun and moon was good.. the 3rd versions were gonna see drastic decline compared to sun and moon.
It's all about a shit opening
>they don't deserve my money
>but I deserve their game
This is how children think.
>>33129243
i already preordered it
>>33130036
now look back at the franchise before XY.
name the highlight titles.
>emerald
>platinum
what do they have in common? they werent games made from scratch, they werent new adventures.
XY-ORAS-SM all were.
so here we are.. knowing USUM are special versions of SM rather than going to something new for the fourth time in a row.
>>33130153
This is what they said about Remakes. Than oras happened
>>33130153
So what you're saying is i should ignore the last 4 years of fuck ups and should believe they somehow are still competent of creating games that are emerald and platinum tier which we haven't seen in 9 years.
>>33129593
Keep dreaming, nerd.
>>33129243
I'm holding for the reviews on this one. Basically: actual post game = buy, another fucking maison = no buy.
>>33131249
Don't wait for critic reviews. It's all paid shit

This is a Pokemon board. That's a really telling
Sequels are totally better than a triad. Everyone always migrates to
Emerald equivalent and people don't have to trade anymore. Why even
have two versions if there's just going to be a master race version later on?
Having a sequel of BOTH versions is subjectively a cooler option.
>>33129593
>"I want my favorite franchise's game to fail horribly"
only on /vp/
>>33131406
sequels feel more half assed to me than a third version. having to spend the same amount of time making two more games instead of one
>>33131410
While I'm not them, Pokemon doesn't have to be your favorite franchise to post here.

>When you hit your lowest point your open to the greatest changes
Aang doesn't know shit, gen 5 changed fucking nothing and it followed on by far the lowest point in the franchise, gen 4.
why don't we know anything about these games yet? aren't they out in like 3 months?
>>33131406
>>33131414
why is anyone talking about sequels?
we are getting 2 special versions, they're not sequels.
>>33129243
depends on features and improvements
Mostly getting it just to get the "other version" so to speak. Outside of that, I wouldn't give a solitary fuck about these games.
>>33129243
Yes, but I will not be investing in a Switch when the time comes for Pokemon on that console. It's a bridge too far.
>>33129379
>having anything
>>33129243
>asking the last remaining people on a dying pokemon image board if theyll buy a pokemon game
these results make sense.
