    1. I still have no idea what the game‘s about

    2. It‘s likely cross-gen with the Switch‘s successor and I hope it‘ll be technically more competent than their last Pokemon game - especially since it‘ll have to run on the original Switch again

      Legends means it’ll use the open world battling and catching mechanics seen in Legends Arceus.

      Also features city planning, could be post-war reconstruction in the past (3000 years ago).

      Also, the mega symbol at the end implies new Mega Pokemon.

      And since it has a 2025 release date, hopefully it will have enough time to bug fix. Likely, it will use the existing Legends Arceus engine so hopefully that allows them more time to refine.

      That’s probably the point here. They’re intentionally not showing anything and not saying too much because this is the launch game for the Switch U or whatever it’ll be called.

    I might consider it if they finally give it more than a year to cook.

      I am guessing this is meant to be the Switch 2 launch title. With that system being delayed (it was supposed to be released this year but now it’s 2025), hopefully they’ll use the extra time to heavily polish the game and make it pretty.

        Yeah it’ll now come with oodles extra merchandise you can buy. And the game world looks like it’s N64 now but with the framerate of the original Star Fox.

      Who cares it says Pokémon on the cover so I will buy 2 copies of it and then complain about quality going down.

      Well it’s a legends title so we’ll likely be able to expect something like Legends Arceus gameplay wise, what I’ll be anticipating is if they’ll do a Galar/Kalos/Paldea super region since Britain France and the Iberian Peninsula are all right on top of each other, and also because of the Gaullic Empire memes it could spawn.

        Based on the trailer, I am assuming the entire game is self-contained within the city, though I’d expect it to be a lot bigger than the city was in X and Y.

    Fuck I hate useless trailers like this.

    2 minutes to basically announce a title and nothing else.

        You wanna know a secret?

        You can do both!

        But Gamefreak knows you people will buy it regardless. Why waste time making a good game, when it’s not going to matter?

    I wonder how much pressure Nintendo will get to change the name given the connotation of the letter Z representing the Russian forces in Ukraine.

      That seems like a bit of a stretch to me. If they felt the need to change the title, they would have done that before this reveal considering the war has been ongoing for 2 years now.
