>FE Direct was fucking nothing

I know there's a Pokémon board, but fuck /vp/. I'm a casual Pokémon player (well, advanced casual if that's a thing, I've played all gens but never got into competetive battling). I have a question!! I was picking up all the berries in Poké Pelago, ignoring the Pikipek that had come to the island. After picking up all berries, I decided to click Pikipek.... AND IT'S A SHINY!!!! Is there ANY chance that Pikipek won't GTFO now that I've taken all the berries? This is the first time in my life I encounter a shiny save for the Red Gyarados in Gen 2.

Pls!!

yes

>berries

I mean BEANS. I've picked up all the beans from the ground

RIP in piece

It had a good run.

...Well, an okay run.

what

All 3rd parties cancelled too

I wish they'd just be honest and admit they canned the Wii U version cause of the Switch. "Technical issues" my ass.

>All the upgraded models a year after release (3DS XL, DS Lite, etc)
I really want to preorder the Switch for Zelda but is there any time that Nintendo early adopters haven't gotten screwed?

They also said it isn't launching with any video apps either wtf

it wouldn't hurt waiting at least a few months

ok

Everything I've read suggests developing for the Wii U is a nightmare, so they might not be entirely lying.

I read some interview recently where Reggie acknowledged/sorta implied that part of why third party support was lacking on the Wii U was that it was a bitch to program for so they tried to fix that for the Switch

penis

Just use the real thread instead of wasting your time bumping this one idiot

Real thread?

That's the opposite of what I've heard from indies

RIP Wii U
RIP 3DS

3DS ain't dying anytime soon

It'll linger, but its time is over.
