So, you own Pokemon games, and then use them as a vessel to target abuse at other people?

You're more stupid than I thought.

*sighs*.

Now you have just shown your own ignorance. Before going into your little rant did you even bother to ask me whether i had played the games? No, you didn't. If you had you would have found out that i actually own Pokemon Blue, yellow and Ruby and i've enjoyed playing all of them and find them to be very good games and spend hours on them trying to catch those elusive pokemon to make up my collection. (And i have to keep replaying them due to stupid computer crashing and deleting my emulator and it's saves)

However, Pokemon's main target audience is children, hence the reason i used it to call him childish. If you took it the wrong way then for what it was implied, oh well.

Pokémon is brillance. i played on red for 500 hours, total, and played on sapphire for 60 hours in 1 week.

Gotta catch 'em all

Anyway, the 'cute' graphics have no relevance to the gameplay, which is a deep, deep challenge.

Ha, and this only goes to show your own ignorance. Pokemon is actually a very playable RPG (depending which one you play), and while it's based around cute, fluffy graphics, it can be quite challenging. But of course, it's popular, has a cartoon, a merchandising empire and cute grapgics, so it's a babies game, right?

Buffoon. Play the game, at least one of them, and you'll see what the fuss is about. I'm not saying you'll like it, but you'll at least learn that it's not just some vacuous crayola-creature pop-up adventure.

Muuuh, N64 4 EVA, give it up. You're losing a stupid and pointless argument and proving how this retarded post relates to your own stupidity.

You can enjoy a game without prancing around like some hyperactive chimpanzee trying to wind up everyone and everything with moronic statements such as the ones that have made up most of this topic.

And don't bother accusing me of being some kind of "sony gaystation fanboy rofl", because I'm not. I own all consoles, and I'm just stating overall forum opinion in saying that your pointless fanboy-ism is getting you nowhere.

Cease. Now.

*sighs* what was i thinking? Using an insult that would actually take brains to figure out. Let me elaborate.


I wasn't saying that Nintendo only makes kiddies games the whole *now go play with your pokemon* remark was to show just how childish you are by even posting a dumb topic like this in the first place. Now shoo little child and go play with your pokemon and go back to your beloved Nintendo forum (maybe you might actually understand it this time)

I've entered this conversation quite late, and can't be bothered to read through it, but it seems that this argument is because you are here. "We" aren't the ones running through other forums lifting up skirts and pointing at unfamiliar sights. You seem to have started this argument, and aren't letting it drop. Neither side is admitting any kind of defeat, and nobody is going to change their opinions. The people in this forum like their Playstations, and you clearly like your N64, Gamecube, whatever, so how about an attempt at accepting that?

Er,

Yes.

You wouldn't go into the Music forum and post about Mario Kart. It's not like those who frequent the Sony forum are physically barred from the Nintendo board. Keep Gamecube discussion in the Nintendo forum, PS2 discussion in the Sony forum, and don't mix - it causes arguments and makes information and discussion more difficult to search and manage (that's the reason we have different forums, after all). If you thought that posting about how great Mario Kart is in a Sony forum was not going incite trolling, flame wars and general trouble, you are either naive or lying.

While I agree with the general theme of your post, this bit made me chuckle.

Oh My God!!
Imagine that a 'Ninty' that doesn't own a pokemon game! Scandalous! He might have to go and play Eternal Darkness, Resident Evil, Wave Race, Rogue Leader or 1080 Avalanche or any other adult themed game that Nintendo make, that EVERY playstation owner conveniently forgets about when they talk about how wonderful their blo*dy console is!
