12:24 i can answer that. When you don't have the assets, you use placeholders to set the "mood" of the scene, and then later the actual assets can be more easily made by just showing to the other team "hey, this is what we're going for, make something along these lines".

[@Greyspecies9999]

hearing that not only was G&S was such a special game for Gamefreak back then and because of that they put so much time and effort on the remakes, but that they also put the Heart and Soul names in the titles to communicate this feeling of affection with Pokemon as a whole, really filled the soul of the younger side of Me with such joy

[@DeAthWaGer]

Since vinyl records have sold so well in the last few years, there is now a 10-20 year gap of people who never used a record player, so now younger people are MORE likely to use one. In most stores today the vinyl section is twice the size of the CD one, if not bigger, which hasn't been the case for nearly 40 years

[@jendorei]

Vinyls are twice the size of CDs, if not more.

@@jendorei i'm talking selection, not just space. They are the size of 4 CDs but only 1/2 as thick. I'm old enough to remember long-box CDs, which were made to use the same displays that held records. Both Walmart and Target have exclusive colors or versions, which collectors snag. Also it's nice to have a copy to listen to since original pressings are skyrocketing in value.

​@@caspay21 Both games have become cult classics in recent years. But, as someone who has played every mainline Gen 4 game, y'all are probably better off with those emulators; those games can feel sluggish without the 4x speed.

[@Apophis324]

I'm happy that Cing made the decision to make Hotel Dusk (and Last Window) vertical games. It's such a unique mechanic and Cing was really great at doing unique things with their games. I think both games would be quite less interesting (but still definitely a must play) if you didn't play them in a vertical style.

[@peazeralus]

It's wild to find Game and Person in the same video, but we already knew DYKG is capable of miracles

They took lots of time on Heart Gold and Soul Silver because they wanted to make them better and better. Then look at what happened with Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl...

[@notscorchingsands9718]

Still better than original

[@V-Jes]

@MarthOfHyrule and by "half-as*ed" you mean the games took lot more effort to make after Gen 5 because everythings in 3D now but that leads to less content because the development time is still the same so fans pretend they are just lazy now, heck the perfect example for that is XY as those are the games with most effort put into it in the entire series yet those are also some of the most content lacking games in the series as well...

[@pkmntrainermark8881]

[@deGoomyan5538]

The last fact about pokemon taking 3 years to develop just so we get a good game really dampens my heart since they seemed to have changed their attitude to making recent pokemon games

[@VideoGamer110]

More likely that they have stricter deadlines pushed on them by The Pokémon Company to have the games released on a schedule that aligns with the anime and TCG's schedules. Scarlet and Violet had multiple glitches that even most smaller dev teams wouldn't let happen (like using 2 controllers to double your character's speed). No studio WANTS to release games in that state, it's pretty clear that it's an outside source.

[@primal44]

Dude I bet working at game freak is hell, I just know the Pokémon company will never give them enough time for their games. We already saw how much potential they have recently with legends

[@Vianyte]

AAA games nowadays typically take 4-7 years to make and that's with teams of hundreds of people as well. GameFreak don't have that time or that size team, so their games are going to be lackluster.

[@MegaZeta]

Welcome to the _No Man's Sky_ era, where every developer knows Stockholm syndrome will get them praise for releasing unfinished crud and 50% patching it up later.

Apart from my dad's original Gameboy and N64 the DS was my first gaming system and it will always be special to me. I bought a DSi a year ago and was surprised to find out how well many of the games hold up, although a lot of them suffered from devs trying to include touch more than made sense. But still it's one of the few systems where emulation doesn't come close to original hardware since it's so unique.

Fun fact! European DS game Actionloop is possibly the only game capable of adding extra content/stages to a GBA cart. If you have Polarium for the GBA inserted in slot-2 of an old DS and boot Actionloop there will be options in settings to unlock two tile sets and transfer 10 themed special stages. As far as I know, there is not a single other DS title that can add new content to an older GBA title in this way. Even the American version of Actionloop, Magnetica, did not offer this unlock feature. This is potentially because Magnetica was released before Polarium in the US, where in Europe it was the other way around.
