Not sure how this will effect the 3DS, but one thing is for certain, add-ons don't have a very strong history.

Judging ow successful Wii peripherals were and Kinect(if u call that one), I'd say they sell more systems ;)

2 examples of successful add ons

The list of failed ones would be much longer, I can assure you.

dark charizard. you are seriously naive comparing that 3DS add on to a wii peripheral or kinect.

you don't get wii peripherals that bulk up the wii and make it look like SH**.

the kinect doesn't connect to the xbox and bulk the crap out of it.

the 3DS circle pad add on is full of fail.

Why in fucks name did the designs for the mc make it through the planing stages of development? They are by far the worse thing pokemon have produced.

MeteorPanda2559d ago

but...you customize your own characters now? l dont like that boys neck. holy shit it's about as strong as a twig

Antnee5342558d ago

I understand that, but if you pick a boy you get the worse choices.

MeteorPanda2558d ago

oh for sure. The franchise just shits on the male version more and more per new entry, lol

Antnee5342558d ago

It's so weird being that the player base is 70/30 male you know. You would think that they would give the males a better choice selection.

Every time I see 'released on Steam' my heart sinks. Why don't these guys release on GOG instead?
