I have heard more than one person say that completing Pokémon X and Y versions is extremely easy, but why this is true is not a surprise. In the games, one can receive a Torchic with a Blazekinite stone simply through connecting to the internet, a free Lucario, and a second starter (which also has a stone that allows their final evolution to Mega-Evolve). Adding to this, there is also the Experience Share item, which now works in a far different and more efficient way from previously, and fairly easy access to Pokémon that are as strong as Absol, Snorlax, Zangoose and Furfrou. I have chosen not to take the easy way out by not using Torchic or the additional starter (though I own both) as members of my main team, and I do not intend to use the Lucario when I receive it. The components that I have mentioned are what have made the games too easy, and I hope that the next title in the current generation is made to be more difficult.

There will be more people who do not know Anime very well than those who do. Dubs encourage the misconception that, like in the case of North American cartoons, animation is for children, which is highly inaccurate in the way that most Anime is directed at teenagers.

I do not understand what is being asked here.

The main reason for why I think that English dubs should not exist is because they make some people regard Anime as being on the same level as North American cartoons. Not only is that not true, but people run a risk in thinking that.

I partially dislike Sonic 3 & Knuckles because it is too long, the special stages are too difficult to complete, and one of the final bosses (a piece of metal with one eye that rotates two spiked platforms around it) seems to only be fit to defeat if one is able to become Super Sonic at the time. I do not mind Sonic 06, due to the fact that it has come the closest to what I want a new Sonic game to be like (although the game itself is very dated now), but if I tried to play it, I would probably be frustrated. Something that seriously bothers me is that it seems that a lot of people were complaining about the boost feature; claiming that the gameplay is primarily "boost to win". This game does not have that feature, and yet they are still disappointed. There is no pleasing people like that.

Your loss. Dubs should not exist because not only are they not the original show, they bring problems such as misplaced lip-sync and cultural misunderstanding. Regular audiences will not be able to understand some components of dubs.

@Black Star: Indeed...

How charming.

@Jilly Shears: I am thinking more along the lines of a Pokémon game that feels difficult and dangerous from the very beginning.

No, but a regular Pokémon game with the same level of plot focus as the Mystery Dungeon series would be nice.

I think that a Pokemon game that focuses primarily on the story should be created.

I believe that it is named "Sonic Pocket Colour", for the Neo Geo Pocket Colour. It looks like an eight-bit recreation of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, but without Tails, and with Sonic having his modern design.

Can you believe that the only Sonic game that IGN has given a perfect (10/10) score to was on an unpopular parallel to the GameBoy Colour?

I believe that Sonic Adventure is the game that divided the "fan-base" of Sonic the Hedgehog; Sonic 06 simply exacerbated the problem.

True.

One thing that I want to happen that I know never will is for both of the Sonic Adventure games to receive 3DS ports.

The Wisps are being used to replace the characters, because they give Sonic abilities that other characters naturally have, which is unfortunate. I desperately want Knuckles to become playable again. I think that his gameplay has always been interesting.

Honestly, I have only played a small number of handheld Sonic games, and nothing else. I own the Genesis trilogy via the DS classic collection, and though the games are enjoyable at times, I believe that they are fairly overrated.

Does that mean that you are fine with the 2/2.5D handheld games in the series?

I very much hope that the Sonic series receives a new title in which several characters are playable. I hardly care about who they may be-Tails; Knuckles; Amy; Silver; Shadow; Blaze; Rouge; Cream; Omega; Big... It does not matter to me. This has not happened since Sonic 06, and I think that it should have happened a long time ago. If the other characters cannot be playable, then they should at least have some kind of role, however small, in the story; not like in Sonic Generations, but instead actually helping Sonic progress. I hope that there are no more silly gimmicks involved in the series; that means no more travelling to universes where there are alternate versions of characters who already exist, no more travelling around the world talking to unrealistic humans with an immature ally that looks like they belong with the Care Bears, and no more fighting against enemies who are not Doctor Eggman or do not have some sort of connection to previous events in the series (e.g. the Nocturnus Clan). I hope that the characters have some level of development as well. Knuckles should stop being portrayed as a moron, and should go back to being as serious as he has been, and Sonic should stop avoiding Amy. Perhaps if he was more accepting of her, she would stop behaving in an annoying and clingy manner.

The second one was not bad; I would prefer not to listen to the first one.

I have already used it, but I have a feeling that the update did not work. I did not see a "gift box" on my 3DS menu.
