Shitty ghetto contests confirmed.
Why do they keep making fake contest stuff like the movie studios in BW/2 and XY.....
They're even less worthwhile than contests are.

I meant what has he done. I've never heard of him before and he doesn't even have a Bulbapedo article

> the battle frontier died for this

Pokeathlon>contests
>>33323647
> we have a lot of new features we can't talk about today
so, what? They gonna blast us with everything a few weeks from release?
oh no they are wasting precious ressources on shit like this most people will use like once or twice and then never touch again. that's literally what i did with the camera minigame in s/m, it was so boring.
New director has an Iwata Altar on his desk
Time to suck his dick hard

I don't know but I'm already not impressed.
Two trailers and Worlds and I've not seen anything that makes me want to buy the game. With the marketing team's love of blowing their load, this tells me there isn't going to be much extra.
>>33323647
Lusamommy better go full evil this time. I want deaths, I want prisoners, I want matriarchal dominance, full Ultra S&M!
>>33323725
The Battle Frontier died for a lot of things. It's not fucking fair
>>33323728
Pokeathlon=/=studios
Though Iiked Contests more, Pokeathlon was an adequate alternative.
But these studio things.... complete garbage.
>>33323647
This is one of those things that I say I'll hate but will probably spend more time with than I should...
So basically a better pokemon musical. That's really neat. I'm always for more ways to interact with your team

>>33323683
>like if a special Pokemon evolves
It may seem like nothing, but there's a little something hidden here. Also if you expected Game Informer to reveal much more than what was shown at Worlds or in the trailer, you might be the problem here.
>tfw GF spends millions on a shitty feature that literally nobody ever asked for
>tfw GF will delete it next gen anyway because they're the world's most incompetent game dev
>>33323815
they just did though
>>33323847
Who asked for the Battle Frontier in Emerald?
>>33323647
Looks comfy
>>33323847
>incompetent
nice buzzword
It's not realistic for every Pokemon game to have every little feature, unless you want them to spend 5 years developing
>>33323847
>complain when pokemon games are rehashes
>complain when they add new features
>>33323888
>MUCH more
This is a very insubstantial piece of info. It's neat, but it's nothing compared to a new Z-Move or a big fucking sky hole.

Me, the battle tower was going to become too repetitive if it was the only facility in emerald, the tower as the crystal bonus but ruby and sapphire already had it, so emerald had to have something bigger so I sent an e-mail to masuda explaining this and brainstorming some ideas, he really wanted the tower because he thought it was a fan favorite so we agreed on a bigger place with different facilities, tower included. place wit

Wow, way to hammer that nail down, that's exactly what it'll be. It's gonna please the more autistic bunch that always wanted to take photos alongside their pets, but that's mostly it. Not everything's even unlocked in the beginning, you can only take full advantage of it probably around the time you finish the game, making it completely redundant.
Great job, Game Freak, I guess. Definitely things that would have never been able to be implemented in the first original games due to time constraints.
Then again, we're talking about the same dudes that probably would've released Gold/Silver without Kanto if it weren't for Iwata, which might've led to the inevitability of Crystal having it instead.
