Lets Talk: Super Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS

  Good afternoon, everyone. I suppose it's time to talk about the new Super Smash Bros. coming in 2014.

  Here are obviously some screenshots of both of the games. You can see in the 3DS version that Pit is a bit pixelated and stands out quite a bit from the background. In the 3DS version, lines were put around all the characters so you can easily see them from the detailed backgrounds. Though of course in the Wii U version no line is needed. Both versions have the same characters, but different stages. The stages correspond to the game system so 3DS has 3DS or DS game based stages and same for Wii U.

  A list of characters:

• Mario
• Luigi
• Donkey Kong
• Pit
• Samus
• Fox
• Olimar
• Bowser
• Pikachu
• Link
• Kirby

  And also the new characters: Villager (Animal Crossing), Mega Man, and Wii Fit Trainer (Wii Fit).

  Stages for 3DS:

• Battlefield 
• Gerudo Valley 
• Spirit Train
• Arena Ferox
• Mushroom Kingdom, DK, and Nintendog stage have not been named yet

  Stages for Wii U:

• Battlefield
• Skyloft
• Smashville
• Dr. Wily's Lair
• Boxing Arena stage has not been named yet

 Also, cutscenes in this game have been taken out. Read this article for further information: Article 

  Has anyone else been enjoying the memes made from the Wii Fit Trainer and Villager?

  Tell me which version you want to get. - Dany

Lets Talk: Pokemon X and Y

  Hello, defenders of Pokemon. Lets talk about the game Pokemon fanatics are raving about:

  Pokemon X and Y are coming out globally on October 12, 2013 for the 3DS. How exciting is that? Lets discuss what makes this game so unique other than the fact it's in 3D. 

  

  There are the new starter Pokemon: Froakie, Fenneken, and Chespin. 

  A new villain, Team Flare, who seem quite fashionable in their red leather. Hm.

  A new region called the Kalos region.

 And, of course, new trainers.

  This version of Pokemon doesn't shrink the characters into sprites, but uses the 3D to make the characters become actual forms. The characters can sit down and walk/run diagonally (everyone seems to be impressed with walking diagonal). Also, this game introduces a new type, the Fairy Type, which is made to be very effective against Dragon Types (so many memes...).

 Now lets talk about some new features, starting with Pokemon Amie:

   This new feature allows you to pet, feed and mimic your Pokemon to make them more friendly.

  You can now customize your character:

  Changing the skin tone is just one way. You can add accessories as well.

  Nintendo has also added two new battling features to the game:

  Horde battles: Where the trainer faces up to 5 same or different Pokemon.

  Flying battles: Using a Pokemon that either flies or levitates activates the flying battles (both Pokemon must be flying or levitating).

  Nintendo has switched up the running feature and added skates and now you can ride your Pokemon! 

  They've brought in a whole new collection of Pokemon as well, but the list is still growing.
