They would need to make it region free to win me over.

You've made similar comments in two or three other articles now. I understand why region locking is not a good thing, but why do you see it as a make-or-break for a game console?

What about the consoles other features? There's more to a game console than just what region it's locked to.

ThePsychoGamer4379d ago

It's a deal breaker because when I buy a console I do it to play games on it. However, region locking will prevent me from playing certain games.

I need a console Pokemon game.
A proper Pokemon Console game, Ive been picturing it in my mind for a while. The Table can act as your pokedex/ Bag/ Move selector.

So when you get into a battle you have your move on the table and you can draw command and strategies all in real-time while your pokemon battles on the Big Screen.

or

you can be walking in the game and you see a pokemon moving(no more random encounters) so you use your table as the pokedex and move the table around to focus on the pokemon to have the pokedex give you the 411 on the pokemon.

I think its time we get a proper pokemon game on a console.

I have been waiting for a real console pokemon game since the N64 era, if Nintendo wants me back as a customers they need to show me something I cant get elsewhere.

He writes this in every post.....he's just trolling....last I checked, all home consoles are region locked so I have no clue why he thinks repeating the same nonsense that is off topic will magically change the scenario. He's just making flame bait to get everyone to argue !

Kratoscar20084379d ago

All those features doesnt matter when you cant play games, sometimes one has to import games so this is a deal breaker.

Seems like a small issue to me, but that's just my opinion.

koh4379d ago

Yeah I have never actually run into a situation where I couldn't play a game I wanted to because of where I live. Maybe that's just a matter of my tastes in games, but this is a non-issue to me.

Christopher4379d ago

If someone likes to play a lot of JRPGs or similar Japanese titles, regional locking prevents that without them importing a system just for that alone.

mike1up4379d ago

WiiWare offered games that had never before been released in the United States. Digital distribution may solve this problem completely.

Imo this is one reason that Nintendo has embraced digital distribution.

SnipeySnake4379d ago

Include a new wireless classic controller and make it mandatory to be campatible with all Wii U games...yeah I'm asking for too much :/

I'll probably get it eventually once a bunch of games I'd want comes out.

mamotte4379d ago

The WiiU controller has all the buttons from a standard controller, so if you get one, you'll only be missing the touchscreen. Is really that big of a deal? Plus, the WiiU is supposed to work with Wii accesories, so I think compatibility with the classic controller for Wii is granted.

SnipeySnake4379d ago

It's a tablet with buttons on the sides :|

And I hate having to connect my classic controller to a wii remote.

konnerbllb4379d ago

I really dislike articles that spread out over several pages in order to get hits for their ads.

Stephen55434379d ago

In regards to the story, Nintendo has already stated that the reveal of the price won't be at E3. They'll reveal it afterwards at some point....but other then that, yeah they definitely need to show us new things. We know nothing about the system other then controller functions, so I think it's safe to say that Nintendo has a few things up their sleeves.

gtxgamer24379d ago

MMO that utilizes the systems controller.

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."

RiseNShine9d ago (Edited 9d ago )

The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.

gold_drake9d ago (Edited 9d ago )

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.

Nintendo's Massacre Of The 3DS And Wii U Is Finally Complete, Regrettably

Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
