There’s a lot of third-party support for the 3DS. If the NX is also a handheld, I imagine all those developers will gladly switch over. (Because what else are they going to develop for? Vita? XDDDDDD)

I’m not worried about post-NX support for 3DS, considering 2017 is still pretty full of significant games: four major titles from Level-5 (Lady Layton, Snack World, some robot game, and that soccer rpg), a whole new IP from Nintendo (Ever Oasis), and the delayed release of Dragon Quest 8.

Finding specific Pokemon isn’t the way to level up faster. Spending real-life moneys on Lucky Eggs is how you level up faster. I wouldn’t worry about the ones trying to complete their Dex using PokeRadar.

You don’t deplete a Pokemon by catching it; it stays in one spot for anyone who goes to that spot, until it despawns after a set amount of time.

Gah, I’ve seen silhouettes of Drowzee, but never actually encountered one. D: Atlanta’s chock-full of Paras, Poliwag, and Venonats, though.

Their names weren’t revealed recently, just their looks. If you’re just now learning her name’s Blanche, you didn’t pay attention to the professor.

Nintendo doesn’t actually have much to do with this game. It was built by Niantic in collaboration with The Pokemon Company, which is independent of Nintendo (even though yes, Nintendo owns a nice chunk of TPC, so they do benefit). It’s why Pokemon’s shown up on a number of mobile apps, far earlier than Nintendo…

Then why do you get 3x more candy when you -catch- the Pokemon than when you give it over to the Professor?

Eh. If you live in the same place long enough, you’re too familiar with your surroundings to be that enamored by that same statue in the park you’ve passed a million times. But now that statue is a Pokestop, and a bunch of people have gathered around a Lure that’s been placed, and are chitchatting with total…

The appeal is wandering around in the real world and seeing what you find. It’s basically like a treasure hunt. If you want a game that’s got battle-strategies, just wait for November for Sun/Moon.

Pokemon Go is an AR game coming out next month, and they did a little AR stuff with the 3ds with things like Pkmn Dream Radar and that Face-shooting game.

Well there’s your first problem. XD The whole point of Layton’s series of games is to do these puzzle-book/Mensa puzzle-type puzzles. That series is significantly less visual-novel than the Phoenix Wright series has always been.

Wh—! The whole point of the Layton games is to play the puzzles! The story is just a nice wrapper.

Just bought 999 because of all the gushing about the series. Only to my second puzzle area, but I’m already getting pretty invested.

Virtue’s Last Reward was only $13 on the eshop during E3, so I picked that up and ordered 999 from Amazon, just because people wouldn’t stop gushing about it. I’m excited to start 999 this weekend. :D

I think if someone took away one of my loved ones, I’d want them put away for a longer duration than three Summer Olympics. You kill someone, you ought to lose as many years off your own life as you stole from someone else.

Autumnal Equinox (first day of Fall) is September 22.

I remember that episode, but I don’t remember if there was actually any visual change to Bebe. All the images I pull up on google, she looks the same.

I don’t think any little girls in South Park have busts? Even the ones working at Raisins.

There were a lot-lot-LOT of references to scenes/events from the shows, but the narrative was simple enough that you don’t have to remember the episodes. But the “world state” so to speak was of the most-recent season, so for example, Chef wasn’t working in their cafeteria, etc.
