Japanese fans think $20 is a good price
>>58958954Kantoslop isn't even worth 5$
>One person>"Japanese fans"Stop
>>58958954>Japanese fans protect Japanese company for Japanese honorWoah
2000 yen is not $20 lol. both games are 25$ combined.
>>58958975If you live in Japan and are paid in yen and shop domestically, 2000 yen is $20.
>>58958962Maybe Westoids should start doing the same.
>>58958954>japan>just>consoooomwhite millennial uncbros gotta step it up
>>58958954No shit they do, no one should take Japs opinions seriously when it comes to Pokemon
>>58958954Comparing a rom to an actual disk is so blatantly disingenuous yet I see pokefags constantly bring it up
>>58958954That's a Japanese content creator, obviously they gonna defend Nintendo.Between the entire Shinise culture and Japanese legal system being severely skewered towards corporate right to nuke everyone into oblivion, it's kind of obvious that nobody in Japan will tell shit against Nintendo.
>>58959267>Overselling the praise>Stay absolutely mute on issues>Condemn anyone or shun them out even when deceptive marketing or pricing history is brought upYou couldn't be more right.
>>58958954$20 would be fair for an actual port. Thats not what this is. Its literally a license to run an emulator for this one game, and it does a worse job at it than any of the emulators widely available on the market.
Keep in mind, Japan actually puts effort into preventing piracy and arresting those that pirate so the "just download a rom" argument doesn't hold up as well there when it's fully possible that you might get in legal trouble to be caught with roms
>>58959258They do, haven't you seen all the posts from shills who bought a copy of FR and a copy of LG for every single language to spite the haters who said they weren't buyin' it?
>>58959341>Shills 20 bucks as perfectly reasonable>Proceed to buy 4 more different versions of the two editions (They won't even play in full) out of spite, completely crippling their own opinion on the matter and endorsing poor coding and product habits.Genuinely asking, what the fuck is the mindset behind spiteful purchases? Hogwarts legacy made sense, misfired protests and what not. But with Pokemon, where every complaint has validity?
>>58959348It's a cultivated mindset born through decades of strategizing and strongarming from corporate entities to replace religion and singular role models with brand worship.
>>58959348>Hogwarts legacy made senseehA majority of those purchases were by normies and parents who never heard of dumb internet discourse. Harry Potter is like Pokemon, it will always print money.
>>58958954it is
>>58959375The ire was aimed at the author of the source material when other targets existed that had an bigger impact on her presence/influence. Boycotting a game from which only a fraction of it would go to her while also being notably on its own was the wrong decision to do it.The complaints about Pokemon are directly targeted at the games and the businesses that go into the port with all lacking improvements you'd expect for the average port to a modern system.
Actual, legal cartridges of this game are either dried up or expensive in second hand markets. Emulationbros are out of touch.
>>58959267This
>>58959403Oh yeah, Emulationbros are the ones out of touch.Let's forget that they are the ones who are actively preserving decade old titles by providing an application with ease of access. (Where Nintendo is either decades behind or monetizes the shit out of it with no incentive of their own to make it better than emulation)Let's forget that they provide multi-language support in a single application (Which Gamefreak can't be fucked to do themselves)Let's forget that they had to constantly struggle with a legal zone in order to provide a better service at a significantly lower finanical investment. (Because they hate that emulation itself is legal while trying to lump it with the actual problem of piracy, which is the side result from their garbage service model in older entries)Even when you generally need a physical copy of the switch game to even emulate it (Which in itself is the legal way to do play games beyond the console barrier), they would still rather sue the shit out of them.So in general, those who are providing a better service overall and for the long are out of touch, not the company that has a history of being anything but family-friendly even slowly but surely in the pricing department?Ok, if that is the hill you want to die on then I consider you an honorary japanese with your willingness to brush off the actual complaints.
>>58958954Well yeah it is, especially in this current age of gaming
>>58959389true
>>58959321>diskHello Indian spammer
>>58959331Wrong, it's actually using the GBA NSO emulator which is a very good emulator.
>>58958954It just shows how much westerners have been brainwashed by social media to be hate mongers.
>>58959348>>58959351Ragebait and you fell for it.
japan just conzoom
>>58959348Its only $20 anon, don't get your knickers in a twist
>>58959840For that same $20 I could buy a brand new game on Steam, pirate FRLG, and put all three games on my Steam Deck.
>>58958954Why the hell would I listen to Japanese Pokémon fans, they're the biggest bootlickers on the planet, even more than Disney Adults
>citizens of a developed nation have no issue paying $20 for an old video game>citizens of third world shitholes cannot justify spending $20 on an old video game, thus have spent the bulk of the last 5 days screaming about itI would say "I'm shocked" but living in a developed country myself and similarly having no issue paying such a price for an old video game, I kinda knew other people in a similar situation to me would view this scenario as I did.
>>58958954>Japanese fans
>>58959840I added another 20$ to it and gave myself Anbernic handheld as late Christmas gift. I loaded it with ROMs and now I have FRLG and tons of other games in my pocket, emulated through superior mgba libretto core and all the functions coming with retroarch.>h--h-home!I could load save to my 3ds, use Pkhex to transfer my monst to SM/USUM and move them to home from there. But why? Home transfer resets movesets so there's nothing valuable to get from it.
>>58959389>The complaints about Pokemon are directly targeted at the games and the businesses that go into the port with all lacking improvements you'd expect for the average port to a modern system.They're also irrelevant to parents looking to buy their kids things or to the adults who understand the limitations of Pokémon intimately, yet choose to ignore them because the premise of the games overrides the limits. The only people they're actually relevant to are the men who got involved in the brand purely because the rest of their generation did 13+ years ago (I'd say there's a few sperg women in the 'base but not enough to be a factor) and somehow got the impression it was not only made exclusively for them, but was mandated to eternally suck them off by doing everything they needed their kiddy moncap game to do. And as reality proved, they're actually worthless as a factor to Pokémon.
>>58959877Ah yeah, there's bank in between. Is that still working? Either way who gives a shit.
>>58959853So do it. The problem isn't you're able to do that though, the problem is you don't want other people to spend their $20 how they see fit (let's be real, even at a fucking cent, you weren't buying any kind of re-release of FRLG) and spacking out over the price as a means to hide that.
>>58958954I paid $120 to have a physical copyYou should only ever pirate digital.
>>58959865Same anon. I could've easily paid $40 for each as well.
>>58958954>real rom>its a download cart that expires
>>58959893This. You cannot even launch it offline after a week because the Switch's shitty license check system.
>>58958954Because it is
>>58959886>let's be real, even at a fucking cent, you weren't buying any kind of re-release of FRLGYou're not wrong. I'm already giving them $50 annually to slowly roll out five to ten re-releases on Nintendo Classics Collection a year. If they aren't going to use it, then there's no point in paying for a premium fee. They're undermining their own established system.
>>589589892000 jpy is 12.76 usd
>>58959923>i'm also a stupid cuntGo look at the releases for every system they produced and tell me where ALL the third party games are for NSO please? I'd cut a bitch to play Trax again, especially with 4 player online, but it's third party and Nintendo don't own rights to it, so it's vaporware ebcause NSO revenue isn't shared and they don't pay for 3rd party licences. Well, Pokémon's in the same boat, Game Freak are 2nd Party to Nintendo, but 3rd party in regards to rights ownerships, as they own exclusive devrights and source codes for Pokémon games. And if Nintendo aren't paying for a mid tank multiplayer shooter for the online, why the fuck do you think they'd ever pay for Pokémon, when you and I both know they'd FAR rather a remake or paid re-release that they can profit off either by console sales (remakes) or revenue cuts (the disgusting amount of money they're going to get from the FRLG sales; revenue cuts from remake re-releases).
>>58959865>dat coping mechanism againYour strawman will always fail. And you're poor because you're cattle for corporations.
>>58958989In like 2001 maybe.
>>58960000CHECKKKKKKKKKKED
>>58959990Most of the third party titles that were on these consoles eventually showed up in collections with multiple games for the same price. Paying for a single game that's already got a remake available on the same console is a legitimate waste of money.
>>58960000I'm not actually though. I also don't give a shit what other people do with their money, otherwise I'd likely be spacking out over people supporting wankers like rockstar or bethesda instead of you cunts crying because people buy $20 pokémon games. But again, born, raised and live in a developed country. So $20 (well, the equivalent, don't use third world currencies) will never not be anything but "not expensive for a video game" to me (NES carts cost fucking 80 or 90 quid in my country back in the 90's). Having a job and an ability to budget helps. Continue projecting, if it helps you handle life better though.
>>589589542000 yen is way less than $20 you mong.
>>58960000Holy Based
>>58959865This is the Disney Adult mindset, god this fanbase is fucked
>>58959375>A majority of those purchases were by normies and parents who never heard of dumb internet discourse.Cept even notmies almost never buy licensed games just look at how well the star wars and LOTR games do by comparison
>>58960024>most of the third party games came bundled with extraneous shit because they couldn't sell any individually and make moneyCool. Pokémon doesn't have that issue, you shits proved that when retards ACTUALLY got mummy to buy them FRLG for their GBA. So we're at an impasse. Nintendo don't pay for third party and Pokémon is FAR too big to need to tart up all their games and flash a leg to attract attention for sales. So here we are, I don't get Trax and you don't get a povvo bundle of everything. I'm dealing with no Trax, you don't seem to be able to accept the world not revolving around your retarded arse though.
>>58960034Anon, this fanbase "was fucked" when kids got mummy to pay $35 for a remake of a 5 year old game, because they didn't exist when it was the new hot thing. Stop acting as if you've been part of the bleeding edge of it any time in the last 10 years.
Clown Franchise
>>58960027>otherwise I'd likely be spacking out over people supporting wankers like rockstar or bethesdaYou mean the companies that put out games with several magnitudes of higher quality in all metrics than gamefreak? What you think of them personally doesn't matter, GTA and Oblivion have more money and effort put behind them than every pokemon game put together, and thus justify their scummy practices far better than gamefreak does theres.
>>58960034>This is the Disney Adult mindsetNah its the MAGAtard mindset these cucks will bitch about jews while deep throating Jewish corpos and Israeli lobby groups 24/7
>>58960041>you don't seem to be able to accept the world not revolving around your retarded arse thoughProjection. I won't buy a game I already own, simple as. You're the one getting mad about it.
>>58958954They can't download roms there. It's actually illegal so you have to buy older games. He is not wrong to say it's cheaper. It is. Old physical pokemon games never drop in price it always get more expensive.
>>58960055That are also buggy as all fuck on release, but strangely get ignored and dickrode. Yep, why reward incompetent fuckers, just because they do gwaffix good? Pokémon do gameplay good, but wankers would rather continue crying about long-patched bugs and their distaste for the level of graphics aimed at children. Go be a hypocritical monkey elsewhere.
>>58960078Uh-huh. And you're getting mad people will and it's not just free for you. Epitome of "Main Character" syndrome.
>>58959258Are there any big western companies worth defending anymore? Microsoft is putting Xbox and all the game studios it bought behind the shed, Ubisoft is desperately looking for a Chinese buyer, Rockstar makes 1 game a decade, CDPR has the 1000 ESG stare, and EA has been the butt of bad gaming for a long time now. I can't think of any other AAA western devs.
>>58960185id? But /v/ have been buttmad over DOOM: Eternal not cratering and disappearing, so stands to reason no drone here would actually talk about them and give them free advertising.
>>58960248ID is owned by Microsoft now. Also Dark Ages flopped.
>>58960255Because it released during a non-covid lockdown? Can you have the decency to think for yourself and not parrot what hatemongers spew because they got buttmad over a game prediction failing?
>>58960163Says the guy who's been attacking me because I had the audacity to say I can spend my $20 on a better game. Every one of your comments is tinged with anger. You're even trying to be an armchair psychologist. If you were seething any more, I'd assume you were Joe himself.
>>58958954Nintendo is a cult, it doesn't matter the region.Nintendo is like a Christianity. It exists to serve, obey, fund, and support Jews despite all their scams
>>5895895420 bucks each is a bit too muchIf it was 20 for both, I think it'd be reasonable for someone that for some reasons wants to pay to have the games
>>58960303Yeah so can I. I don't need to virtue signal about my purchases though in an attempt to attempt to sway a demographic like you. We can all play what we want and buy what we want.. But faggot secondaries cannot comprehend people buying and playing something they don't want sold for money, regardless of price, when they feel they deserve it for free just because they exist. You're shitting yourself in anger over Pokémon selling a GBA game for $20, you already lost whatever argument you're trying to use to justify getting so angry like an autistic little shithead.
>>58958954Their franchise Their company Their memes and porn
>>58960344>Nintendo is like a ChristianityBrown skin detected.
>>58958954This is what they call a "truth nuclear bomb" overseas
>>58960408You can't guilt trip me into buying a 20 year old game just because they finally dug it out of its coffin any more than I can convince you that it's stupid to do so. You're only continuing this argument to moralize. Let it go.
>>58959416voir kind are so pathetic it make me want to buy LG on switch a third time
One dollar for each year it wasn't available for purchase
Reminder that normal people don't spend any time justifying their purchases to random people on the internet telling them to just grab a rom.
>>58959416I hate you faggots who talk about “we’re preserving the game”. Just be honest and say you don’t want to pay for games.
>>58960478I'm not trying to. It DOES speak volumes to your situation you think I A) give a fuck if you buy it or not and B) am trying to force you to buy it, when all I'm doing is pointing out despite you lack of desire to buy it, it's being bought and no-one involved in the brand in any shape will actually care some sperg invested in pokémon to the point of congregating on the shithole of the internet just to talk about it buys it or not.
>>58960157>That are also buggy as all fuck on releaseEven launch day fallout 4 had less egregious bugs than SV and SVs bugs remain unfixed because gamefreak doesn't care once they've got your money because bootlickers like (you) will defend every anti consumer decision they make anyway
>58960613>n-no see, it am diffewentAh, a SHIT-EATING hypocritical monkey, even better. Buggy game equals devs should get nothing but ridicule and scorn. Monkey retards suck retard devs dick when it suits them, then cry at kid's games not playing retard dev games, so they can suck their dick too. People like you is why I stopped supporting devs like them.
>>58960157>but strangely get ignored and dickrodeYou are wrong, everyone shits on Bugthesda and Rockstar got lots of criticism when they released the Trilogy edition of old GTA games.
>>58960636Uh-huh. And yet skyrim and GTAV suffered the same and broke records. Hmmm. Enjoy paying for buggy slop, isn't that what you say to pokémon fans? Well, I do because the bugs aren't as pervasive as in the offerings of the other two, even if manchildren want the world to think they're worse than everything both studios released combined into one big buglist.
>>5896002913 dollars and 11 euros, gaijin pay more, kek.
>>58959267when it comes to anythingthey are all soulless slop consoomersalso no wonder they're a dying nation
pokemon yellow 3DS cost $14 inflation adjustedFRLG is $20 and is a GBA game so its reasonable
if you never got to play the games and you are shy about emulation, then yeah i could see this being a good deal. 20 bucks for a legacy and quite easy rpg is a better price than almost any game on the market besides silksong or aethermancer.>but its a lazy port! but its the aniversary and they didnt give us anything new, fuck TPC!i agree
>>58959963Japs are paid a low salary. 2k yen is like 20 or 30 bucks for them.
