>Pokemon obtained in Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness game cannot be transferred to other titles, and Pokemon in other titles cannot be transfered to Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness game.is there any reason to even play through these games if you can't transfer the Pokemon out? that was the main draw for me for these games, you really can't get Umbreon or Espeon in the FRLG ports until they decide to release RSE on switch. Bravo Nintendo and Gamefreak
>is there any reason to even play through these games if you can't transfer the Pokemon out?Yeah there's a whole story campaign
>I'M GONNA TRANSFEEEEERJust enjoy the game nigga
>>58973373>get connected>but actually you can'tCool.
Why not Colosseum first?
>>58973373even if they release RSE on switch you're still gonna be missing most Johto pokemon in the dexit's literally impossible to complete the national dex in FRLG on switch
>>58973373>release FRLG and the Orre games on a single system>can't connect to each otherOne step forward and two steps back with this franchise
So it's just like the original game, then?Few people actually had the setup to use Colosseum or XD for trades>GameCube >GameCube game (beaten)>Game Boy Advance>Game Boy Advance game (beaten entire post game if FRLG)>GameCube-GBA link cable
>>58973597I had a third party link cable that had a split end with GBA and Gamecube connectors.
>>58973373Unreal. Well, no rush to sell my original gen 3 stuff I guess. Fucking lol
>>58973597Do people not beat the games they play?
>>58973444I will, but it's still unfortunate. Literally no reason they couldn't have had Home compatibility. Unless for some utterly absurd reason they can't disable save states for the two games.
Remember these games are officially spinoffs that they don't care about, that's the only reason they're willing to be dumped on NSO for free
>>58973597Exquisite, Michelin-star bait
Really weird to me that they teased both Coliseum & XD like a year ago but now they’re releasing just XD??
>>58973534You actually can get every Johto Pokemon between FRLG and Emerald's postgame areas alongside the Hoenn Dex, besides Celebi (and you'd have to play Emerald three times to get all the starters).>>58973657Kids? Not always, I would say it's kind of rare in fact.
>>58973373Probably cause theres pokemon that would be able to have illegal moves for the current online competitive scene.Magmar/buzz has helping hand now anyway, but I'm guessing there may be other examples. Been a long time
>>58973478Because is shit.
>>58973806I meant follow me not helping hand but whatever
>>58973534Alone you can't. But since local transfer is confirmed, yo ucan have friends or buy multiple switchs
>>58973809It's better than XD.
>>58973373Enjoying the game? It's better than most mainline titles
>>58973373Ever notice the people who dislike these games always talk about them with weird ass bile in their voices. They never say the games suck and move on their lives, the use a tone I reserve for when a game completely fucks up a franchise I like in long term ways.As a fan of mario sunshine I hear people shitting on it all the time, but it feels like in a fun away (that game sucks lol), meanwhile colosseum and xd are talked about like they violated someone.
>>58973806Moves are reset in Home. That's not the reason.
>>58973746>>58973845oh, I stand corrected
>>58973673The news they wouldn't be connected to the mainline storage app wasn't obvious enough?
>No transfer pack on n64 nso>Probably no gcn<>gba link cable connection even if you use the usb adapterFOR FUCKS SAKE NINTENDO I PLAYED THOUSAND HOURS WITH FRIENDS EVERY WEEKEND FOR HOURS AND POKEMON IS A MULTIPLAYER ORIENTED GAME WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING
>>58973806This hasn't been relevant since like gen 5.Starting gen 6 Pokemon needed to have the regional origin flag to compete, and Home resets all movesets anyway so no Pokemon gets to keep their event-exclusive moves.
>>58973876Yeah, they're not mainline, thus won't get mainline treatment, like getting connected to the mainline storage app.The only fuckers confused by this are strangely the exact type of retard fuckers who can't accept the mainline collection as presented by Game Freak.
>>58974037The move reset happens when moving something into a game, not when it is uploaded.
>>58973806no its simply because Home has 0 access to NSO's individual saves and they also don't care enough about the gamecube games to develop some sort of exception to it where Home can access these saves specifically
>>58973560this game is in a different service
I probably won’t buy it since I have this. The real incentive would be for Home like they did with FRLG.
>>58973373The original games are still legal on home right? By transferring up from gen 3 I mean
>>58974396Yes
>>58973867It's all Game Freak drones who can't shit on any of the other games since Game Freak made them. And since they mog the crappy 3D games in the main series, they have to go out of their way to tear them down.
>>58973373Wait, why the fuck are they skipping colosseum?!
>>58974146Do the Gamecube games have save states? I'm not buying a Switch 2.
>>58974335OG fan
>>58974146That's just bullshit, if they really wanted they could make it work.
>skipping colosseum >no home No reason to not just play grand colosseum and XG on dolphin then. Fucking faggots
>>58973478Wasn't the younger child protagonist mandated with XD? Perhaps Wes came to really churn TPC's stomachs.
>>58974499yes they COULD but they dont want to because they literally don't care to do so its not a mainline game same goes for Colosseum and Stadium
>>58974300you’re so fucking dense dude, you’re retarded if you’re pretending that it’s unreasonable to expect that you can connect two compatible games on the same console launching within a month of each other
>>58973373because they’re fun as fuck and the only pokemon games to actually be difficult
>>58973597i did niggahaving my box full of johto and kanto pokemon before frlg was even out was PEAK
>>58974146Probably why they enabled the event tickets in Fr/Lg so you can get Ho-Oh and Lugia that way.
A fuckup so bad it's likely to spike the second hand value of the original.
>>58973478Because they know that one is even less excusesble than DX without connectivity.Remember, its PO bonus was a GameCube disc that did nothing but transfer Jirachi to a GBA game. They assumed the player was buying the game to transfer shit.
>>58975478what part of>the game is in a different servicedid you miss
>>58973597I was one of the lucky bastards who had both. No clue why or how I got one, but I did. I think I might've used it for Animal Crossing more than I did for Pokemon.
>>58975772the gamecube and the gameboy advance were also two different services
>>58975890anon do you not know that FRLG is its own program vs DX being in NSO?
>>58973478Coliseum remake confirmed…..
>>58973373Is it a must to play Colosseum before this? I really dont feel like downloading an emulator.
>>58976309It's filled with a ton of references to Colosseum, but the game does summarize the events of the plot. Also, it's still Pokemon at the end of the day, the story doesn't matter that much.
>>58976088It’s data in a computer. They can figure it out, the reason they’re selling the game separately is that they want money, not that home can’t access the save files.
>>58973444It's the only reason to pay money to Nintendo rather than playing it via other means
>>58976309You're not missing much story wise, I'd say the main draw at least back then was the shadow Pokemon that were available for capture like the legendary dogs, johto starters and selection of johto pokemon. Would help complete your Pokedex for the gba games
Would it have really hurt them to add GBA Link Cable compatibility into the emulator just for authenticity sake?
>>58973673>freeAnon...
>>58976601>kid who thinks stuff are made by pressing a buttonalso for reference, FRLG are literal rom dumps. if they get altered in any way they'd go under ESRB shit
Nintendo and Pokémon fuck up yet again, what else is new
I remember playing XD with the fucking C stick because my control stick was broken from too much Air Ride. Really looking forward to the rerelease.
