Nintendo always releases their November games around US Thanksgiving. It's pretty convenient.
just for those of you have haven't seen these yet.
he uploads alot of these, take a loot they're super funny
It's such a shame, since some of their games are/could be really good, but they get screwed over by being rushed out or not bug-tested.
I'm busy.
I need to boar through and get shit done so I can have Friday and Saturday to Smash.
So after 3 weeks of not playing Smash 4 I went on for fun to warm myself back up before jumping into for glory. I play Ganondorf and for the whole round I am just standing off to the side and getting kills off of people who get flung my way with one hit. Some people have the worst tunnel vision when playing free for all I swear.
From this though, it looks better than I was expecting, and it runs at 1080p! Only console version of the game to do that.

The fact that the two negative points are "too much water" and "too many HMs" means that you should take the whole review with a grain of salt, but I'm posting it here anyway in case anyone is curious.

This review is too biased for me to like. It starts off praising the original title for following the "tried and true formula" of a pokemon game and then proceeds to denounce the game for Secret Power and HM mechanics, which were the exact same mechanics from the original. This bias becomes even more apparent when you look at the orignal review for Ruby/Saphire.

The original Hoenn Series is notorious for the excessive amounts of surfing and yet it still gets a near perfect score for introducing new features and mechanics like Abilities and Natures. This game also brings plenty of new things to the Pokemon universe via the DexNav and new layouts while suffering from the same faults and it gets a 7.8. The nostalgia blind is strong in this one.
I was fine with all the surfing you had to do in the original. In fact, Pokemon Emerald is my favorite Pokemon game and I am excited to play Omega Ruby, also my shiny Camerupt is getting some Mega evolution love! <3
I think the thing I liked most about Hoenn was all the water. I liked using Dive to explore underwater and hoped they would expand on it in later games. They didn't, but now there's ORAS.
