Pokémon Rumble Blast Discussion Thread

4 BW games in less than a year? They really got crazy there in Nintendo....

 

More Rumble? I'm down.

Neither half of this makes sense...

 

At least this sounds more interesting than that stupid typing game.

Also, I wonder if all the Pokemon are going to be available or just the 5th gen and first gen, kinda like the first Scramble. I hope that there are more Pokemon, since it would seem stupid otherwise.

 

I hope multiplayer isn't limited to just two players, especially when everyone will have their own devices and screens. The first game allowed four players! That wouldn't be all that super...

 

Frankly I'm not amused...That pretty much delays Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 3D even more.

 

Can a game that doesn't exist yet, officially or at all, be delayed?

 

You get the point you know...It'll be sad if they never make it. It's probably the best Spin-off Pokemon games there is...

 

My point was simply that this game, in and of itself, does not delay a 3DS entry into the PMD series.

 

Both Pokemon Rumbles are developed by Ambrella (not Umbrella, Serebii...). Mystery Dungeon is developed by Chunsoft. Even if Nintendo were to oversee their development, that doesn't mean that they can't do both at the same time.

Geez, 4800 yen, tax included. Better be some great gameplay if multiplayer will be that limited...

EDIT: Now that I think about it, maybe they mean two-player co-op rather than multiplayer Battle Royale (what I was thinking).

 

Sweet, this game comes out on my birthday too (in japan of course). It looks so interesting, I can't wait.

 

I assume this will be the Autumn/Christmas pokemon release for the rest of the world. However, I'm really looking forward to this because I never was able to download the wiiware game. Also, is a July release date for Japan unusual?

On an unrelated note: Nintendo are really going for it this autumn/christmas with their franchises. Not only the ones annouced at E3 but this is probably going to be in the mix too.

 

Hey! An actual spin-off! I never got Rumble because it didn't look too great and I was short on Wii points, but I think I'll give this a go when I can get it.

 

I'm not that excited about this release. The WiiWare version was fun. . . for about a week. Then the task of going through courses again and again to obtain one Pokémon became apparent. I hope there's more than just two generations of Pokémon, as in the WiiWare version. If there is only two, I hope it's Gen V and III (although it would be more likely for only Gen V to be included).

EDIT: Oh, I see. Gen I Pokémon are definitely in it. Well, that's disappointing. Seems like a poor rehash of the WiiWare version. It looks identical, courses and all.

 

So, the new game revelation we've waited for so long is a Rumble sequel? I'm officially turned off.

It feels like... I had a halfmeter-long boner. After hearing this, it suddenly went all flaccid. Forever.

I've lost all my faith in side games. The next worthwhile Pokemon game will most likely be Gray (or whatever they call the BW third version).

 

What a let down. the rumble game is so boring. where's pmd3 or the next col/xd. I'm most likely going to skip this.

 

Oh, I guess pre-Unova Pokemon are in it after all. That's a relief. I was disappointed to hear it would only have 5th Gen. I wanted one with all 649 646.

 

I'm not sure if I'm going to get this. The original was way to short.

 

Man i think they shouldve updated the graphics
