I will defend Pocket camp to the death because it is one of the only mobile games I've encountered where technically you can actually get every single item without paying real money. You just have to be extremely patient. I've been playing it every single day since the moment it was released without missing a single one. I have not spent a single real cent on it but have everything upgraded to the max since around 2020. "Limited" and event items are constantly reissued so if you dont have enough leaf tickets saved you just have to be patient and wait for the next time they return which is every few months or so.

[@SeiferA2001]

Legitimate question: how many nook bucks do you get roughly every day? I ask this because, at least when I played, I struggled to even get 20 nook bucks per day. And when each item easily costs 200-400 bucks and when there’s a quadrillion items to buy… unless I’m missing something, I feel like by “patient” you mean “you can get 10 paid items in half a year” I mean this with no disrespect; I’m legitimately curious what I’m doing wrong here

[@holicxhunter]

​​​@@SeiferA2001 well, theres many ways to earn leaf tickets actually: Through lvling up in both manager lvl & HRA, events & goals, and trek maps. Lvling is the easiest way, you especially get alot when lowlvled. Also, you can get these paid items for free through friend gifts and sometimes in the timmytommy shop! And through events too ofc.

[@kingemerald4622]

I mean it was released during Nintendos ruff patch 2015-2016 to be precise before the switch came out of course but 2015 to early 2016 was when the wiiu was still a thing and we all know how that went the 3DS was the best selling thing that Nintendo had during that point the handhelds were the only things that were selling way before the switch was an idea which was called the NX at the time

[@lexiw.145]

Erm it was like that in the beginning sure, but it's definitely taken a much more P2W structure. Still possible to be F2P but you still have to do so much more for less leaf tickets

[@ErgoDog]

Delusional. It is terrible.

[@hyperm8]

As a Fire Emblem Heroes player, I'm very surprised you had such a positive first impression of the game. It's worth noting that this game is ridiculously complex, like I don't know if you clicked on a weapon description and saw the wall of text for yourself. I still love the game but its one of those gacha games cursed with constant powercreep

[@crudmuffin64]

There is actually 2 revival projects for Dragalia Lost in the works right now! One is Dawnshard, a project trying to recreate the original experience as closely as possible. The other is Orchis, which is going to add unused characters and custom characters as well as a mode that tries to rewrite the stories of the main campaign in a sort of what if scenario.

[@hibikuokudan]

YAY

[@nxcrorat]

Thank you for sharing this!!

[@airleamystery4788]

Wait this is the best thing I've heard all day!

[@Yanluvr]

The best part about the apps is that you can get Platinum points for playing the apps (except for tour), especially Fire Emblem Heroes. I just take all my 5 star characters, put them on auto battle, tap a few times and complete a chapter in like 5 minutes. And you get 100 points for completing each chapter on normal difficulty so it's very, VERY profitable. So if you want to get that one My Nintendo Reward, get your gacha game skills on.

[@joevee63]

I use an auto tapper to make the process even quicker

[@Yanluvr]

Huh I haven't thought about that.

[@AlexDayz]

The Platinum Points is the only reason I even bother with Mario Run since you get some every week for partaking in the Toad Rally. FEHs is pretty great as well though once you complete the story chapters I don’t believe there’s any other way to accumulate them till new chapters are added.

ive been on animal crossing pocket camp for 5 years. The clutter on screen is probably because you haven't really done much. Then the tom nook debt is actually there, its for your camper and cabin. I've maxed both out and don't remember how much it all was but like maybe a few million. I've never spent any real money on the game. Its still fun for me, even though ive clearly reached end game (ive maxed almost everything). I find most games bothersome and too grindy but this one i spare atleast some time for in a day.

[@Jolyneadventures]

I started playing last week and I spend real money to have a caretaker with me (helper plan) 😅

[@vvirtualecho6938]

I’ve been playing ac pocket edition recently and pikmin bloom for a couple months now. Ac pocket edition is a little overwhelming when you first start playing but once it settles down you can just come back every 2 hours and meet new villagers which i find nice. I like pikmin bloom cause it makes me actually want to go outside which is nice cause i tend to isolate myself. I like that once a day you can make a postcard and place it anywhere to try and get a specific decor type. It’s definitely not as big as Pokémon go but it also takes up less space as it and you don’t have to have the app open to actually track and get things like you do for go :]

[@ephemerald5]

i gotta agree, many aspects of pocket camp make me more enthusiastic to play animal crossing than any other mainline game has made me feel. the whole level up and earning access to crafting and friendships with other animals make me feel like i’m gradually working my way up rather than how they handle plot in new horizons

[@rrrr0binn]

i really like pikmin bloom !! i use it every day and it's fun to collect pikmin and postcards and have a little extra incentive to go out walking. im also so sad miitomo discontinued, i LOVED that game

[@doorbox788]

I’ve tried every game on here, and the only one I really liked was FEH. Maybe it’s cause i’ve played it since its inception 7 years ago, but i love the idea of Fire emblem but in a short snippet map instead of a 2 hour level like in the main series. Way more convenient. It’s been getting super crazy how much powercreep there is now tho, and I imagine it’s next to impossible for a new player to get into it nowadays. However, i’ll still keep playin this game for years to come!

[@MarcosFull]

Dr. Mario World is a game that I played and really enjoyed. I'm sorry they discontinued it. I put a lot of hours into Pocket Camp and realized that it's just an album of collectible figurines with limited time to get any of them unless you pay. No, I don't want Animal Crossing on consoles to copy Pocket Camp's updates if they would work in that way that is stressful instead of relaxing. I won't say anything about the rest of the games because I haven't tried them.

[@jesterdays]

All I remember from Miitomo is people spamming the musical instrument emojis because they made noises

[@mexyo539]

To be honest... From all the ones you need to pay to have items, animal crossing pocket camp it's the one who you can expend any/Cero money and still have the items. I'm being playing since 2021 and I never pay real money for an item and still have a bunch of rare items. So yeah... Your point isn't really good tbf.

[@LuckyLuke_94]

although they're pretty generous and there's always a chance to get an premium item using the in-game currency rather than the Leaf ticket

[@myprofilepictureisafish]

Yeah but also I’ve been playing it for a long time and It’s still really fun without buying anything, I definetly prefer New Horizons but as a fun simple mobile game Pocket Camp works really fun

[@Sailor-Khione]

Tbh as someone who didn't get the final item from the last event, pocket camp still feels fairer than other mobile games I've played. There was one that basically felt like they changed the difficulty of an event. Basically I used to be able to play this event and finish it without spending any money. And it had a % pass rate. I'd be able to win with as low as a 77% passing rate. But after an update and then adding a pack to buy, I couldn't even pass even if I had a 97%... On the first level. It might as well have a minus sign in front of it or say I actually had a 2% pass rate because I'd fail every single time....

[@No-ei3ms]

Here’s my opinion on pocket camp so in my opinion the updates are frequent because there is a certain amount of time you need then when that time is up you need to keep the fans interested with something new so you can’t have one without the other

I also have to formally apologize as well as a Heroes player myself I apologize for the pain that we made you suffer through that bit

[@NutyRiver]

Tbh I actually really liked Mario Run. It feels waay more like an actual console game than 99% of other mobile games. The fact that it has a one-time purchase for the full game is pretty respectable, and I don’t think allowing the player a demo before they buy is all that tricky of them. The levels are actual designed levels, not auto generated infinite scrollers, and they do a good job at adding depth, skill, and some puzzle solving with the limited mechanics. They also have that NSMB difficulty curve where the base level is fun for beginners but there’s plenty of opportunities for more skilled players who want to 100% the game to challenge themselves. Overall I think it’s a pretty respectable game, for a mobile game.

[@Rockinsilver]

Dragalia lost has to be one of the best mobile games ever. Had a great story , super free to play friendly, amazing cross over events (monster hunter, persona 5, fire emblem) the actual boss fights had like rules and mechanics you had to learn oh my god bro I cannot believe they trashed it man.

I loved your suggestions at the end for more games that could be rereleased on mobile - I think theyre missing a trick! Some DS games were so innovative, even compared to current mobile games, and they'd be amazing to see on new devices. One I'm actually surprised not to see them do yet is Flipnote!! So many people do digital art on tablets now, I think it'd be incredibly popular. Also i miss seeing that aesthetic! I honestly like the concept of the Switch Online app because of the extra stuff theyve added in it for those games, like Splatnet and the Nook thing. I tried it for VC with a friend but it's so pared down that we couldn't do much about it not working or know why, and it was too much hassle to set up compared to just calling each other lol. But I'm a big fan of having extra connectivity on a different device and i reckon a text chat would be really good on there - maybe it's the place for a Pictochat reprise!! They should have added more games to it as well, or the generic Switch online features - it's just been left far too limited/basic for what it's supposed to do

[@Marshtard]

i think nintendo is too scared to do anything within the realm of Flipnote, Swapnote/Swapdoodle, or Miiverse ever again, for obvious reasons of course. but man do i miss the days when Flipnote flourished...

[@Ponch_ITK]

Wanna chime in here on the two games I have the most experience with Dragalia lost & Heroes For the most experienced it's probably Heroes since I've played it since day one and I have seen some pretty weird shit happening with the game over these last few years although I took a massive break from it because well other stuff and pretty much every new unit that gets released is broken to some extent with new skills that make the characters either hit the juice a little too hard or make some completely broken As for DL that game died Too Young Too Soon For a mobile game it had an absolute slapper of an OST in if anyone who's reading this I definitely recommend checking out the OST for this game it is an absolute treat And if you're wondering yes you can still play dragalia even though the game is ded just go on here and look up private servers I think that's the ones that are still running

[@chrystalclear500]

Ah what a nostalgic run through all these games! I forgot how much I missed Miitomo and Dragalia Lost; the latter especially had really bopping music and engaging combat gameplay, especially for a mobile game! This also lowkey made me want to go peek on Pocket Camp again; I know I have at least one friend who is absolutely a part of that core audience. Quick note: As far as I can tell, Nintendo has a partnership with Tencent to publish Nintendo games in China and add integrations for things like Wechat pay for purchasing Nintendo titles there, but I don't think Nintendo had anything to do with the development of Wechat itself. I'm pretty sure development of Wechat began half a decade before Nintendo entered the mobile market.

NGL I only watched this for the fire emblem portion. I've been playing since launch and I was hoping to hear more of what a new player was feeling. If you aren't a fan of fire emblem in the first place it's very hard to recommend so I'm glad you didn't have a terrible experience with the game.

The one I play most is Fire Emblem Heroes, I believe I started somewhere at the end of Book IV/start of Book V of the story. This may be just because I play more casually but it does seem pretty generous with Orbs (it’s premium currency you can use for the Gacha pulls) as you get them from a lot of stuff like completing story chapters on different difficulties, log-in bonuses, quest, etc. Tend to save up for when there’s a character I really wanna pull regardless of how meta relevant they are. Have spend some money on it for Orbs though now just mainly pay for FEH Pass as it offers a few conveniences like having multiple back-to-back auto battles (great for training, tempest trials, etc.) Have been getting into Pikmin Bloom more than Pokémon Go and while it has been fun they’ve been locking a lot of the new Decor Pikmin (basically the main collectible) behind events. Wouldn’t mind as much if they didn’t all play the same and force us to use new flowers they introduce just for the events. Would be interesting to see them bring Dragalia Lost to Switch as a “Definitive Edition” with all the stuff for free, just needing to be unlocked over time. Never played it myself but always caught my eye

For anybody wanting to know about FEH, it’s evolved into such a different game than how it was in 2017 when it released. It went from being the most simple watered down Fire Emblem gameplay to being the most convoluted and insanely complicated gameplay. For example a Book 1 unit in FEH would have a skill like death blow which grants +6 attack when the character initiates combat. Nowadays we have stuff like A/S Rein Snap which is a skill for fliers which allows them to get an extra movement if armored or infantry units are close by. PLUS it grants stat decreases to the foe (in this case minus 4 Attack and Speed). And that’s a pretty simple skill for modern FEH. Weapon skills look like this. Dagger of Doom (made this up): Grants -1 special cooldown. At the start of combat grants stat difference to unit based on foes atk/spd. If unit initiates combat foe cannot make a follow up attack and unit makes a guaranteed follow up. If units atk stat is higher than any foe in cardinal directions grants +1 extra movement and discord on foes. If unit defeats any foe, grants Canto 2 and Null Panic on unit and allies within 3 spaces. In 2017 weapons said - Grants +2 Def and Res when adjacent to a dragon ally.

The only thing that is certainly frustrating is the amount of powercreep, I understand that they have to release new and better things for people to summon but sometimes they get out of hand And they leave your old units useless compared to the new ones

I love the keyboard for New Horizons for example, it’s much faster to type something in the app than in the game. It makes trades and communicating with friends much faster. For Splatoon 2 and 3 I love that it keeps track of your stats, you can redeem points for Wandercrust for outfits (and wallpapers in 2), checking the catalog, and you can check the current and upcoming stages and special events without having to boot up the game. I use the app quite a lot for Splatoon 3, I love checking all my stats and watching my scores improve.

24:00 I'd say Dragalia Lost died mostly because of bad monetization practices. It looked like it had a decent amount of players even on its last months of service but... there just wasn't anything to spend money on that game. The only thing useful in the microtransactions shop was currency to summon characters, which was very expensive and also something you could get a lot for free just by playing the game. Many players would have almost all units in the game without ever spending a cent on it, which is great for the players and not so great for the revenue.

Pocket camp wasn't bad for someone who has been waiting for a new animal crossing game for literal years it's good to know that there was something to fill the void of downtime and the huge gap between games like the last proper game was new leaf until we got new horizons recently but that's not to say that Pocket camp has gone through development hell. originally, it was going to be a game where you built your own town, inviting villagers to stay in the town that you constructed giving the gameplay more of a purpose rather than what we got. don't get me wrong pocket camp is an okay game but it could have been better, but I guess new horizons having that building mechanic that was supposed to be in the mobile game is still cool

I'm a day 1 FEH player, and it has been the most toxic relationship I have ever been in. Especially compared to Dragalia, which I tried to get into on multiple occasions to no avail, and yet I still hail as one of the most morally correct mobile gacha games. So it felt REALLY weird when the video mentioned the shiftiness of gacha-related microtransactions on the Dragalia section and not on the segment with the highest grossing Nintendo mobile game. Dragalia actually listened to fan feedback, and they would constantly update the game to make it more friendly to the playerbase. Not to mention, there'd be free currency abound. And while the game was VERY grindy (one of the main reasons it never stuck with me), reaching the upper tiers of play was never unachievable. Summoning was easy, you could make 10 summons at a time, and they even moved the Wyrmprints from the summoning pool to their own shop where you could purchase them with the currency you get from summoning duplicate units, which helped reduce bloat. And they handed out free summons like candy. It was absurdly generous. Compare that to FEH, which brings out new units that powercreep the previous month's units, free orbs having grown fewer in number over the years, the summoning pool remaining incredibly bloated with terrible units, Aether Raids and Summoner Duels being nearly impossible to perform well in unless you invest in all the newest premium units that aren't even in the regular summoning pools, new mechanics being relegated to summoning those new units, like Pair Up, Rearmed Heroes, Ascended Heroes, Echo Skills, and most recently, Emblem Heroes. If you don't summon any of these units types, you miss out on stat boosts, better weapons, additional skill slots, and a variety of other effects that will give whales a straight-up advantage over you. The scoring system in many modes relies on you using particular premium units, which again, you must summon for on extremely limited, bloated banners. New, powercreeping skills are being added every banner, which you're expected to summon for to strengthen your currently existing units, which makes it hard to save up orbs to get merges for incomplete units, which itself is absurdly expensive to do. Otherwise, you're going to fall behind. This game is ludicrously unfriendly to F2P players.

Dragolia looks so much like the MySims games!!

[@Veeebeee69]

animal crossing Pocket Camp is such a fun game. Ive played it for quite awhile now, and the uniqueness of this game compared to the others. Being able to design my camp, as well as my camper and cabin and such. Definitely worth playing

[@JuanD817]

It really hurt when Dragalia Lost closed. I remember farming non-stop the Monster Hunter and Persona collabs, those were the good ol days. It was really a decent gatcha game :')

[@DumbClownFr..]

does no one remember the Yokai watch mobile game?? I literally cried when I opened the app and got the message that the game will be gone soon. I've loved that game so so much aaahh.... :(

[@RnA.2]

Ok I'll just state that Super Mario Run is more a free to start rather than free to play, since it was earlier on in Nintendo's push to mobile. So they more just have you pay a flat fee and have the whole game. Though is cool they let people try later levels in case you don't want to do that too. (Also jeez, yh as someone is pretty ok at auto-runners, yeesh was that some performance. Guess it made me feel better for my occasional plunders though lol, so ty.)

Miitomo was me and my brothers favorite phone game! We had a lot of fun and we used to send memes to each other in miitomo

[@Viggelitooza86]

Dr Mario was great. Never put a dime on it, but I had a blast with it. It's kind of sad that there was hunderds of ingame stages that I never gonna get to play.

[@akfc.6978]

The only Nintendo mobile games I’ve played are Pokémon GO, Super Mario Run, Dr. Mario World, and Fire Emblem Heroes. Oh, and perhaps Mario Kart Tour!

[@theotherjared9824]

What sucks about Nintendo mobile games is that the abstract concept still has potential. Many Nintendo games would be a great fit for mobile with some small tweaks. Fire Emblem Heores is a great example of baby's first strategy game that's also plenty generous with it's gacha mechanics. However, it's clear these games were a failsafe in case the switch failed, and since the switch could feasibly be the best selling game console of all time in the near future, the entire initiative was shelved and the games that weren't making the big bucks were cut off. All they need to do is the Super Mario Run approach of a free version that's compromised (locked content, ads, etc.) and a paid verion that gives the player access to everything.

[@xerxies8947]

The dream is an animal crossing mainline game with the pocket camp items but no gacha system...but the cash grab pocket camp has to shut down before that will ever happen.

[@buggibii]

I wish Nintendo had more stakes in their mobile games that would stop them from removing and discontinuing their games so often. YEARS and DOZENS of lost Nintendo media exist now because Nintendo wanted a cash grab, did not market them properly, and then got bored, and it's so goddamn frustrating. They have to commit to the games they make, or, surprise surprise!, we don't play them and then they don't get to grab the cash.

[@davidmartin5483]

What if Nintendo realised that instead of putting out another main line full console game for animal crossing, that the mobile game is more maluable and in the long run maby even more substainable given that the basic gameplay stays the same each time but there is no story wich could hook new players. It could maby bring in more of the crowd of playes that didn't find it too appealing as a full on game but can see it as a way to relax and turn your brain off once in a while being on the move. Also it is a substantially more fleshed out and may I say full hame than other ones you can get on your mobile device. So at the end of the day you have more from it than any other game.

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

As a pro mario kart tour player, I had a little ptsd for how he didn't turn on the drift button (why is it not on by default), also you can turn on landscape mode.

[@ch1zpuffs]

fire emblem is literally the perfect choice for a mobile game considering how popular turn based + gacha games are in asia alone lol

[@emilyjones2794]

I recently started pocket camp again. Super fun. Almost got all base game items I can get with bells. I saved up a lot of leaf tickets to get a kerropi plushie for my character and was worth it. Its like like my special kerropi plushie.

[@epaily]

in mario kart tour, theres a way to change cc to 100, 150, and 200! you didnt mention it so i thought i should say it as you beat the bots so easily. im level 176 in game and its rough some days lmao

[@anasu_meruku]

I really miss Miitomo. Imo it made my way to Miitopia modding and translation, and ONLY BECAUSE Miitomo met with Tomodachi Life series

[@Melantic]

24:22 It does exist. It’s called Granblue Fantasy Relink, same dev company and all that. If you play it, you can really tell this is what Dragalia would’ve been if it was a full on console release.
