I had an irl friend call me and argue with me like a twitter user and he doesn't really use any social media. The pokemon obsession runs deep and changes people. Was actually a rather surreal experience.

Same with Sonic fans. The sheer entitlement and the kind of arguments those retards gets into is pretty fucking crazy.

So now is this just limited to the eShop purchase of the game, or are the physical copies also just coming short of bricking the system?

First they deleted the Pokemon, then they deleted the game saves, now they're deleting the very Switch itself. I'm just waiting for physical copies to fucking melt the Switch from the inside out at this point.

Okay so how the actually fuck did this pass QA and who the hell thought that making Pokémon a new COD is the best idea when this is the second time in the Switch and being the first time to go into an actual open world game??

"HA HA I really don't know"
Wouldn't doubt it was somehow masuda himself's fault at this point

Honestly, all of the recent shift has pushed me into being in the middle. Yes I want to play the game but I also don’t defend some of Gamefreak’s work on this game.

I mean I might get the game in a couple of months (on a separate SD card) but you’re not gonna see me spam boot-licker or the “Consume Product” meme whenever someone likes the game norwill you see me be an avid defender of the game and choose tobe blind to some of its problems (seriously though, how is GameFreak competing FO76?? They literally were killing people with bad helmets).

Because fallout 76 also bricked a console, but this is fucking with your nand randomly and possibly cause an entry for homebrew

Oh boy people are already finding glitches and it hasn't even been two days since release
This glitch literally makes it impossible to encounter any other pokemon after an encounter if you click run away and that one of the better glitches.

There have been also reports of sudden graphic glitches where you see into the model's faces, models T-posing/floating around randomly in the game, game-breaking bugs like saving in certain cities breaking the game entirely, pokemon noises coming out of the wrong pokemon's mouths, audio disappearing entirely, encountering pokemon you shouldn't be able to, being able to catch the legendary during your first encounter when your not supposed too, shinies when captured not registering as a shiny, etc

This is literally becoming GameFreak's Fallout 76 the more people play it

At first I thought this would just be mediocre but god it seems today everything started troubling down out of nowhere in terms of code stability, it's kinda amazing

Ya know, I'd actually take your video clip evidence seriously if it didn't jumpcut every time - and then intentionally run into the Zigzagoon that was on the screen. I think you have the wrong video there pal. Especially when it says 'wrong header" glitch.

No where in that clip or even the video description says anything about encountering any other pokemon. If you're gonna claim this glitch is real, at least have the right video footage.

My bad sorry there so many glitches coming out I can't keep track of them all at this point outside of the digital game wiping your switch's game data.

I am going to find that again hold on

“Game crashed on an attempted autosave (or at least I assume so), I then the game crashed on boot to I put in my smash cart to test, smash crashed on boot too, so I rebooted my Switch. Now everything on my Switch looks like this, even the cart games are asking for a redownload...”

If anyone is going to risk playing this and is on an older switch, take the time to getting homebrew going. It’s a 99c commitment off eBay for the dongle you need (or you can 3D print one) and will let you back up/restore your switch’s NAND as if you were cloning a hard drive. It won’t get you banned either since the backup/restore happens outside the switch os, just like flashing a rom on a phone.

ETA: there’s also a full-featured save copier so you can back up stuff like the ssbu system data.

The first Pokemon game I ever got was Crystal. That Christmas morning I spent playing it was achingly nostalgic. The graphics and new Pokemon felt so enthralling and exciting. Everything was just so perfect.

When I heard s/s was garbage a few days ago I started playing a romhack called Crystal Clear. I’d highly recommend it to anyone who grew up with the first few gens, it removes the plot entirely and makes the whole game into one gigantic open world where you can wander around and do gyms in any order you want with any of like a dozen starters, and the wild mon levels scale appropriately to your party/badge status. It’s got some QOL improvements too, plus being an emulatable game means you can fast forward slow animations and such.
