>please stop buying games for $20 AAAAAAwhy are y'all like this?
>please pay $20 for KANTOOOOwhy are y'all like this?
yall cant behave
Internet histrionics should be met with divine retribution.
over 20 years old roms*
>>58959177let people have fun
>>58959194Game freak shills deserve a beating, not fun
>>58959201it's bizzare how 80% of this board seems hateful
>>58959149>third worlders seething over people spending their $20 on a product they likeis this the most pathetic outrage we've seen yet?
>>58959215>>58959149Retards who don't understand incrementalism
>>58959218why not explain it to us
>>58959215It encourages Game Freak to keep doing this
>>58959295What? more rereleases? Good!
>>58959295I'd love Emerald, Platinum and HGSS on Switch. Sorry that you bought from the scalpers.
I can play them for free on Steam Deck with mods.
>>58959205This place has slowly degraded into a mental asylum for 14 year olds and manchildren stewing in their own antisocial behavior (pedophilia, bigotry, violent bursts of rage, etc.) over the course of a decade. Coming here periodically over time you can really see how bad it's gotten. It used to be way more populated too.
>>58959779It's been like this almost since the beginning.
>>58959205Reddit forced positivity is much much more toxic than 4chan
>>58959149I literally just do what I was doing for last 20 years and it makes you shit yourself and project your hysteria on others.
>>58959205I find it more bizarre that "people" here unironically defend modern pokemonMy guess is that they have never ever played a game outside of this franchise and thus have nothing to compare with
>>58959157Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee are $20?
>>58959805Reddit was literally designed to reward you for groupthink and punishes you for having an opinion of your own.
>>58959825Exactly
>>58959215It's the typical bargaining from brand-addicted shills.>hurr durr anon if you'll not pay for this pile of shit, it will mean that ur poor. Don't be poor.It's kind of funny how it's mostly hardcore leftists doing it. They banned insulting ppl's race, gender, sexuality, disabilities etc so best that is left for them is using "poor" as an insult. Except when it's against them, then it's "material disability" or some shit.
>>58959215It hurts and upsets them because the great boycott of Pokémon games never happened liked they hyped themselves up into believing.Seeing people being excited for a cheap re-release of Firered and Leafgreen making them so mad.
>>58959783It went downhill quickly but there was a time when it was fun. I still remember when the gen 5 dex leaked for the first time. Most of those memories were lost like tears in the rain...
>>58959805i'm guessing you've never been there and are just parroting what you heard. reddit is as pissed and miserable as you guys, they're just left wing and you're right wing. it's all the same panopticon of misery.
>>58959834>It's kind of funny how it's mostly hardcore leftists doing itGot proof or receipts? Leftists usually whine on the internet and don't buy things.
>>58959838Corporate Meme
>>58959874It's the other way around, go to the comments on the trailer videos for FRLG and it's full of people calling others sheep or cattle for buying these versions instead of emulating.
>>58959854>no counterargument
>>58959902>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8c_C4vfUMo
>>58959902>go to the comments on the trailer videos for FRLG and it's full of people calling others sheep or cattle for buying these versions instead of emulating.I wouldn't call them people
>>58959902vp still thinks theyre in the minority, meanwhile i go on instagram and every pokemon trailer is full of people shitting on it, saying gamefreak is shit and lazy, terrible graphics, soulless, greedy, etceven reddit hates modern pokemon
>>58959934Grouped all together they are still a vocal minority because FireRed is sitting at the top of Switch eshop best sellers list followed by LeafGreen.
>>58959934>is STILL currently #1+#2 on the eShop charts as a pre-orderYou do know the choices you've made on your devices have led the algorithm to serve you content that suits your interests? You're seeing all that noise, as the filter's only SHOWING you that noise. You know what you're not seeing? The people who don't need to justify their spending of $20 to anybody. Who bought the games and are waiting for friday to play them, maybe even waiting on the presents video too. the vast anount of people who've gotten a Switch and have decided to pull the trigger, or who are currently being marketed to (FRLG are currently in the featured news tab when waking Switch/S2) who'll end up grabbing it on release.
>>58959902It's called mindless consumerism for a reason
>>58959957i like moden pokemon and i just see these comments on pokemon posts in general. i dont look for hate posts
>>58959964So why does that entitle people to lash out at others?
>>58959194Like Epstein, Netanyahu, and brown migrants?
What's new with these ports
>>58959215>>58959838Hi /v/ermin.
>>58959815I feel bad for your mom giving birth to someone who considers someone nonhuman for liking a children's game you don't like.
>>58959973You mean like this very thread is?
>>58959973>>58959982>all that projection over some banter and criticism Oink oink.
>>58959992First guy's not me.
>>58959149>>58959157>Too late, I now represented you as crying/mad or as a manchild so your argument is invalid.You guys are insufferable. This isn't even "U mad?" Anymore, this is "You mad, yeah you are cuz I said so"Cancel your internet service and kindly shove your $20 and your emulators up your ass.
>>58959982Start acting like a thinking human instead of a mindless drone and I'll start considering you as a person
Probably a good idea to not do that, yeah.
>>58959248>Pay us more.>Uh okay.>LOL I can't believe that worked. We should do that again.
>>58959149Can’t wait for Friday just so people can move on to calling each other slurs over which starter they pick.
>>58959934Honestly, pushback starting to happen around the 30th anniversary is only a good thing.The seed to grow doubt can be planted when they pull off the next stage of fuckery.
>>58959992>it's just banter!Okay.
>>58960037If they don't fix the roar glitch, the only pick is charmander, as your beast won't disappear forever then.
>>58960072What pushback?
>>58960088We do have confirmation the Switch versions are the Player's Choice ROMs.Was it fixed there?
>>58960093Unc thinks because he's upset, the literal millions of people proven interested in Pokémon games MUST be mad.
>>58960101I dunno dude, I didn't waste my money or anyone else's on a GBA let alone games for one.
>>58960088I’m talking about Gen 10 lol
>>58960037It's /vp/, they call you slurs just for breathing
>>58960142Yeah but the starter wars are some of the only times where it’s actually funny
>>58959149I don't see the problem. I paid 20 dollars just eating out by myself and made like 10 times that in gold/silver miner etfs just yesterday. Do y'all have jobs? Because no one cares what some poor jobless neets think about the price of vidya. Like lol exit out this tab, take a shower and start applying to things you loser lol
>>589601553/10. Should’ve left it at the first post. Ragebait wasn’t as obvious
>>58960164How much money do you make. Honest question
>>58960106Okay fag, I didn't need your life story.
>>58960121Still no debate, the one /vp/ hates the most from first reveal is going to be the shillmon of the three, just like the last 10 years of new Gen reveals.
>>58959194Have some fucking standard, first Jesus fucking Christ do you not even realize that by allowing this shit to slide, you are setting a precedent for Nintendo to add more games to the various console libraries but add a price tag to them?Holy fucknuts please see this as what it actually is: a test of your fucking willpower to not spend money on this shit and validate Nintendo's investors.
>>58960176You'll live.
>>58960088>beast roars>restart game without saving>try againWow it sure is hard to deal with that glitch
>>58960187Better yet.>throw masterball >win
They're poor.
>>58960189If you didn't catch every mon in a regular red ball you didn't beat the game
>>58960175Going by your own logic Popplio was definitely the least liked but it definitely isn’t muh shillmon out of the three.
>>58960175Every degen here wanted to fuck the cat and it became the most popular by far
>>58960176No, because most rights owners who did old games for Nintendo systems will bundle their shit up to get actual sales interest (that megaman box set), Nintendo will continue putting their shit on NSO (it's part of the selling point of the online sub) and likely only Pokémon will sell their older shit on eShop as all of Nintendo Game Freak and Creatures profit from that. No other series is big enough to warrant trying what Pokémon's doing and Nintendo aren't going to arbitrarily sell old games as that will eventually diminish the point of NSO from a consumer point of view (you might not like their practices fully, but they do at least claim to consider their users when making such choices and adding old games as a bonus for an online sub is better than how they forced fans to pay over and over on past systems for old games and if someone's getting the online anyway, may as well sweeten it, regardless how much the individual actually interacts with it).
>>58960164Thought I was the only one who saw the first version of that comment lol
>>58959215I pirated this game almost 20 years ago, now I will pay 6 dollars extra for it. You have literally no excuses, poorfag.
>>58960196Incineroar was when the starters leaked though.>>58960197And they pivoted HARD to Primarina when it turned out the cat turned into a furry man, while Popp turned into a decidedly feminine seal, complete with body detailing aping a low-cut evening dress to compliment the (female) vocalist theme. Hell, I had an unbroken streak of picking Fire types up to 7, because I went cumskull over my choice (though I'll admit Delphox turning out to be the Fire type and ALSO cumskull option in 6 pleased me internally). But I didn't hate 'Roar, I just wanted to fuck the seal (picked it for a sidefile run). /vp/ hated it though and it ended up the shillmon. Ditto the bunny, because merkins couldn't wrap their heads around people maybe liking it due to also liking football as a sport (or spergs in general misunderstanding the attraction of it to non-internet shut-ins). They despised the cat and doubly so when it stood up and got sexy and everything about Gen 7 was about her, so. Whatever starter /vp/ hates the most closest to launch will be the winner pick, in regards to picking something that the franchise will anoint as "the" pick of the Gen.
>>58960238Didn't mean to quote meself, 1st part meant for >>58960193 2nd for >>58960196
>>58959149Because I love pokemon and I'm tired of seeing it getting worse and worse because some people have no standards
>>58960175>the one /vp/ hates the most from first reveal is going to be the shillmon of the three>>58960238>Whatever starter /vp/ hates the most closest to launch will be the winner pickWhich one is it?
>>58960016>"P-paying $20 for FRLG will make them do something like this again!!">literally every normal person wants more old pokemon games playable on switchAnd this is a bad thing because...?
>>58960252The one the place hates the most with no true leaks then. We didn't get leaks for 8 or 9, yet we ended up with shillmon /vp/ hated. We DID get leaks for 7 and that swayed the system seemingly as /vp/ hated that shillmon and all.
>>58960263Because then they'd be expected to PAY for the old games to play them on switch and they'd never ever be free.This is of course ignoring if they were ever going to be added for free, as that would absolutely guarantee an uptake of NSO subs, they'd already have been done so and would have been heavily marketed to drive sub uptake already.
>>58960289>if we don't give them money they'll have no choice but to make these games freeThat's not how it works
>>58960321But that seems to be the hope or pervading mentality. "why isn't it on NSO, what am I paying for THAT for, reee". Ignoring they obviously play online in some capacity and NSO is primarily a "let me play online" fee. And again, getting pissy other people ARE paying for it, while they scream "p-pirate it", "nooooo" and other worthless venting of feefees because the thing isn;t actually catering to their estimation of what "real" fans are.
>>58959295>it encourages game freak to have standalone games on the eshop instead of letting nintendo shove them behind NSOand this is bad because?
>>58960523B-but anon if we refuse to give them money they'll give away these games for free!!!
People spent $80+ for ZA btw
>>58959149I got some retarded family who don't understand tech or emulation or anything along the lines. Most kids today don't know how to do much more than press the button to make the app show up. So 20 bucks for a game they will play for a bit enjoy some nostalgia and not think of again is about the price of a mcdonalds run. I'm not going to bother teaching a 10 year old or a 40 year old tech illiterate person how to emulate. I tried making a handheld for them with all the retro shit but they didn't understand. I just wish we got something like. "Classic bundle" with all the preDS games in it. But knowing nintendo it would be keycard only
>>58959149>>58959811>>58959834>>58960523This thread might be complete ass but at least the pictures are funny
>>58959201>you're not allowed to enjoy pokemon on /vp/why>because i said so!fuck off.
>>58959215Some boards are blue, some are red. /vp/ is brown.
>>58960238Owlfags are the ones who hate furshit designs which is why they latched on to rillaboomer and the clown croc.
>>58960289if you weren't so deep in unemployment you would find the $20 instead of pissing and crying yourself to sleep
>>58960953I don’t understand how people consider this to be a decent argument, it’s obvious that those who won’t pay the $20 have ample money to do so but consider it not worth their money, while the actual poor people are the ones throwing money at everything while criticizing others for not being blind consumers like them. It’s pretty sad.
>>58960959>blind consumersy'all learned a new phrase and keep reusing it
>>58960973Don’t deny there aren’t people who will buy every Pokemon game simply because it’s of the Pokemon brand.If that’s not blind consumerism, then I don’t know what is.
>>58960991does this bother you
>>58960959>it’s obvious that those who won’t pay the $20 have ample money to do so but consider it not worth their money, while the actual poor people are the ones throwing money at everythingpoorfag cope
>>58960263> pay for something that's overpriced> things get more overpriced>>58960289no one would have complained if they were $5 dollars. Almost no one would have complained if they were $8 or $10.
>>58961101>overpricedIt's $20>no one would have complained it they were $5 dollarsDoubt. Brokies were going to pull the "b-but you can play on phone for free" card no matter what.
>>58961101can you stop cryingand start acting like a grown man
>>58961130I could afford a $20 banana but I'm not buying a $20 banana.
>>58961131if you worked retail you would know that middle aged parents are the ones most sensitive to price fluctuations.
>>58961144do you think your angry comments can change anything
>>58961138You can do whatever you want with your money, no one is forcing you to buy it but don't be a fucking nigger because other people want FRLG on switch
>>58961150Yeah? Me complaining about dexit lead to youtubers being dislike bombed for defending Z-A. People being mad over movie sonic being ugly lead to the design being changed. Obviously in this instance I "lost" but me bitching now can lead to better results later on
>>58961162>me complaining about dexit lead to youtubers being dislike bombed for defending Z-Ayou really think you caused it?
>>58961161>You can do whatever you want with your moneyThe same applies to casting judgement onto others for how they spend their money. Nobody can stop either. Also "niggers" are the ones who are most likely to spout the rhetoric of "don't tell other people how to spend their money". You should judge how other people spend their money because how other people spend their money is how civilization works. Without other people spending their money we wouldn't be able to have this conversation right now.
>>58959157
>>58961167the huge backlash to dexit in 2019 directly lead to shitting on Pokémon being "the cool thing" to do in 2025 absolutely.
>>58961182how old are you
>>58961189I'm old enough to know that dexit hit a switch in the fanbase where people started putting visuals under way more scrutiny than they did before hand.
>>58961203probably too old for this franchize
>>58961255why you here then? By this logic this board shouldn't exist.
>>58961161I bought it but you're acting like a stupid cracker.
>>58961268well everyone here is a scum of society i guess
>>58961286this but unironically
>>58961138False equivalence.We're talking about entertainment, not food.
>>58961101Shithead, there were incel cunts crying RGBY cost $10 on VC, yes poorfag cunts WOULD have had an episode for anything less than "take this for free" beca7use they're entitled little niggers who could just hack, steal and play for free anyway, but they're pissy because none of that is from Nintendo giving it to them for free. Die in a fire you simple cunt.
