We already had an episode or two about erectile dysfunction. I doubt we'll be seeing a healthy comparison.

Feel free to make a new one.

I know pokémon talk was a few pages ago, but I do have a question: Between the DS/3DS and Switch, how many of the generations of Pokémon games can be played? I've been watching the Pokémon Anime that's available on youtube and I found it hella charming.

3ds has x/y, su/mo and the gen 3 remakes, switch has the second gen 1 remakes, sword/shield and the upcoming gen 4 remakes. 3ds virtual console also lets you play gen 1 and 2 i assume

yeah, gen 3 is the only one missing

but if you are including older DS versions you could still use the gen 3 gba carts

Can't imagine there's much of a reason to play the originals unless you were curious or nostalgic, though, omega ruby and alpha sapphire are really good remakes.

Mostly just want to see what's up with Pokémon in general. It seemed to be like it'd totally been my poo poo when I was 14 and Pokémon stuff started getting big/arriving to Mexico, but then that summer I moved towns and... just never got into it. 3 years later I started playing videogames again and I started playing japanese games and Shin Megami Tensei popped up and that sealed the deal.

it is really funny how 90% of the 428 stuff is "minoru stumbles around comically while maria narrowly avoids dying in dangerous gunfights while making out with canaan" and the other 10% is "one character from 428 appears for 10 seconds and is like 'drat this is very hosed up. i hope you dont die minorikawa' and then leaves the show forever"

and then also just a few bits where alphard is like "wow maria you don't remember the events of acclaimed visual novel 428, of which you were featured in? wow you are very stupid. i can't believe canaan is dating a girl as stupid as you. canaan's girlfriend is very, very dumb."

Personally I'd definitely recommend Omega Ruby over the original if you can get it.

While I'm not a HUGE pokemon fan (like collecting all XYZ pokemon, or doing all the postgame stuff or getting a competitive team), I like it and I've played most of the games. I missed out on Ruby/Sapphire the first time around and got Omega Ruby.

With the caveat that it's still a pokemon game, it did have one of the three plots that caught my interest at all (the others being Black/White and Sun/Moon) with somewhat interesting characters.

I'll check that out. While not all of my gameplay complaints can be fixed with GIT GUD, I think I'd find it more fun if I had a better idea of doing blocks and stuff.

I don't like how you have to drop a weapon to stomp someone, since basically every weapon knocks people over. I also didn't like how fast enemies could attack out of standing up; Together it made knocking enemies over feel pretty bad.

Wait, like 428: Shibuya Scramble?

It's so set in my mind as live action an anime spinoff automatically feels weird. :v:

I agree with over the original ruby/sapphire. But it might be worth considering replaying emerald at least once if you never gave it a chance.

Emerald's story combined both the team magma and aqua plotlines, and it added a ton of new features, especially postgame with the battle frontier, many of which were removed from the ORAS games.

Whilst I understand that MHA is now Studio Bones' cash cow, I wish they still made stuff that looked similar to Eureka Seven/Xamd.
Xam'd was the first show I watched soon after airing and it gave me a vivid ghibli feel.

if you want more kenichi yoshida character designs you can just watch king gainer and

there's a new show with designs from him airing next year actually. it's even being directed by mitsuo iso

dogsicle

Xamd and Gainer even have some staff crossover. the Xamd director worked at Ghibli as well

i don't think you get that same vibe for a show again though, since it was basically just having that era of Bones all together (surely can't be the case anymore) and also trying to capitalize on E7 popularity.

really i just think more people should watch gainer/greco in general cause the only one of tomino's goofier and more out there later work people ever talk about is turn-a, and i think gainer and greco are around the same level of quality with maybe more consistently good action

OKG and (El) Greco are great and I heartily second this opinion because holy bastard, OKG was so much fun. Like a fun school Winter/Spring break where you finish your homework on the first two days and you're just going wild all across town.
