So no word at all of us getting classic games on the Switch with the recent leak? What a load of shit.
>>58412568We, the Pokemon community, don't actually want this
Game Freak have gotten so autistically possessive over how you should play Pokemon that it's literally impossible for them to rerelease the games in the current state that they are in a convenient manner. Them adding fucking autosave you can't disable after catching Pokemon in Z-A feels like a genuine insult
>>58412568I, the Pokémon community, actually want this.
>>58412568>4 regions are totally unplayable on Nintendo’s only platform
>mong retard ignores the fact any collection of original games would need to be sold at "adults-only">mong retard displays the breadth and depth of her retardation by ACTUALLY thinking releasing pokémon games at an "Adults-only" rating would in ANY way be attractive to Game FreakJust emulate.
>>58412568>Wanting oldslop
>>58412623>"AAAAAIIIIIEEEEE IS THAT A SLOT MACHINE IN MY KID'S GAME????? PEGI SAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEE">nevermind the fact said kid probably plays bugman gachaslop on his phone and swipes his mom's credit cardWhy can't you as a parent just explain to your child why gambling is bad?
>>58412623They released Crystal on the 3DS in 2018 with it's original E rating. The gambling problem was relevant back then so what has changed now that would make it impossible? Nobody cares about Europe
>>584127052018 might as well be 1018 with how much society has changed.
>>58412568If it included gens 1-5 it would be worth full price>>58412623It would take 00000.3 milliseconds to block out the game corner in the EU version
>>58412705The relevant laws changed after the 3DS releases before that they ended up with the equivalent of a T rating, since then it became an adults rating. There was a whole big ordeal about them trying to rate Balatro adults only for the same reason.
>>58412623God fucking forbid they do 5 minutes of work and disable the game corner and have some NPC gift you the exclusive items/Pokemon.
Most of Game Freak’s employees are traumatized by Masuda’s tyranny. How dare you want them to relive their trauma by releasing these games. Masuda’s work deserves to be erased like all disgraced Japanese celebrities.
>>58412740At this point I'd be surprised if they even have an employee left that knows how the old games were coded enough to do that.
>>58412748This but unironically. Pre-Pokemon Renaissance games have no place being playable in the modern age.
>>58412723>no, see they NEED to give it to meYeah, but they wouldn't. That's why they scrubbed it in HGSS and why the binned the trope entirely, including retconing it out of remakes after the fact. They didn't gimmick it out of the VC releases, why the fuck would they bother in a proposed Switch 2 collection (switch is dead to them)? Easier to just NOT sell a collection and have to jump hoops or sell it at Adults-only, when it's the same basic kid's game series it always was, but can't actually argue a balatro exception, as Tajiri went full 'tard and added proper fruit machine logic. There's a slew of emulators out there, go play them. You can even bullshit your save into a cart and actually bring it to proper games too. But Game Freak aren't going to offer you a chance to do that.
>>58412705>>58412765No, they released in in Europe and S. Korea (possibly others too) with a 12's rating, as per local laws any form of gambling in games meant a then-12's rating. it's since gone up and at 18's there's no hope of a Pokémon game for zoomie afterbirths to relive their childhood because Game Freak despise seeking even a fucking 12's/Teens.
>>58412623>Emulating a Pokemon gameTell me you have shit taste in video games without telling me you have shit taste in video games...
>>58412740If they could have done that, RBYGSC wouldn't have been rated 12's kid. But in actuality, that would require digging into the old code, making the change, hoping they don't fuck the rest of the game, because it was a house of cards put together with spaghetti and master it, JUST to sell it in two regions. The new staff, anyone joining in Gen 3 or later would be worthless, as they wouldn't have been in the industry when Game Freak started writing what became Pokémon so that's dragging a senior head away from his day-to-day and hoping he knows how to massage the code to how you want it. Yeah, not happening. that's why it hadn't already happened, you dense cunt.
>>58412814>RBYGSCIt just dawned on me that you essentially listed two games...
>>58412814Motherfucker, Zoomer Romhackers do more complex shit for free. A programmer with source code access working for the most profitable I.P on the planet can do it even if it's technically a ROM hack and not a source code adjustment.
>>58412796I'm not the one asking for a collection of old games, because I wasn't alive to have played them in their era shitbag. Never mind CFW 3DS's to play "authentically" on a handheld (and there's buttloads of them around) so it's less like an emulator, if you need.And I could care less your opinion on my vidya game taste, I'm at least an honest sort. If I'm interested in your game, I'll buy it. If I'm not, I'll ignore it entirely, including but not limited to "not seeking to pirate it to play it on unofficial hardware".
>>58412840Cool. We know Game Freak won't so what zoomer retards do because they missed out on Pokémania's irrelevant to me. And if they didn't do it on 3DS VC, they sure as fuck won't for Switch 2, meaning they won't attempt to sell a collection at 18's in any territory. That's what remakes are for.
The problem is that with the region free nature of the Switch/2 they can't really just release or "enforce" a version of the game in any one region. EU law probably views the ability to purchase and use an outside region's version of a game as willing distribution which would get them in legal trouble. They would have to change how their entire digital distribution infrastructure works just for this one edge case.It would be more realistic for them to either:>Re-release games that originally had gambling content with said content removed in all regions/languagesWhich would be fucking gay but at least you would have the game>Make a BDSP style low effort remake for each individual game without the gambling and charge full priceThis has been gamefreak's mindset until just recently if we're supposed to believe they want to do better from those leaked documents>Not release the games at all
>>58412859An underlying, re-occuring theme with the Pokemon games is to trade Pokemon with other people. This is why most mainline games have two versions with varying exclusives.If you emulate, you're effectively missing out on a handful of Pokemon, and if you hack them in, then you might as well gen lvl 100 Pokemon with max stats and just steamroll the game.Again, shit tastes, if simply because you don't respect or appreciate the game's underlying mechanics.
>>58412899You can emulate trade, between your own save files or other people's from Gen 1 to 7. I think switch emulation even supports local multiplayer.You can play completely by the rules if you want.
>>58412710Zoomers with limited life experience be like…
>>58412568After Capcom released the Battle Network Collection and are going to be releasing Star Force, it shows they perfectly could rerelease the older games in a collection with the different versions>GameBoy collectionRGBYGSCRSEFRLG>DS collectionDPPtHGSSBWB2W2>3DS collectionXYORASSMUSUMBattle Network allowed you to play the different versions of each game, them all having their own save files, and even allowing online play as well, they literally just have to copy what Capcom did for their collectionThis would also mean all mainline Pokemon games would be on one single console
>>58412693that's a really good argument you got there anon, but is not him you should be arguing with regarding the contents of the game
