Several reports are claiming that Pokemon Shuffle will make its debut next week in North America. The news was apparently revealed in an official newsletter that supposedly says the puzzle title will be available in the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS on Wednesday, February 18th. Pokemon Shuffle was announced during the first Nintendo Direct presentation of the year. The game has players matching three or more Pokemon in the Puzzle Area to deal damage as they battle wild Pokemon across a variety of stages.
Pokemon Shuffle Hits Nintendo 3DS eShop Next Week?
Sweet……..well a little bit….
Yes, put BlackBond’s video, the worst graphicwhore and slave to ever exist in the new era…
Specially since he hates Nintendo for every reason…
I’m so darn tired of shuffling Pokemon, aughh, I already did it alot in all the other Pokemon games…switching the main Pokemon who fights first, switching the elixirs, IM TIRED OF SWITCHING AND SHUFFLING STUFF. It’s so tedious , it’s what got me out of Pokemon and every time I remember Pokemon, I remember the tedious shuffling, and moving, and switching, and the computer where you put Pokemon in boxes AUGHHH. Seriously.
Welp…. We’ll finally see Candy Crush made by Nintendo and see if they’re dirty weasels just like King.
I’ll definitely download the game since it’s free and I’m a sucker for bejeweled clones; but the minute it makes me pay money to keep playing it’s gonna get erased.
I wouldn’t get your hopes up. Nintendo has never forced it upon people with these titles, but from their previous free-to-play games you’ll notice they don’t offer much free content.
Just look at Steel Diver or Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball.
I’m hoping this might be a little different since it appears to be a smaller game than those two, and simpler in design also.
Definitely won’t get my hopes up though. This is them attempting different monetization techniques. I just hope this model in particular doesn’t become a staple.
Those two games aren’t even in the people’s “Nintendo wish list”
Yoshi cookie says hello
Candy Crush? You mean Bejeweled which is the original and better…until EA stole it up and fuck it up.
Pokemon shuffle looks rather tough. Don’t tell me Nintendo’s Wii u had enough. Mynintendonews is full of facts what did the Hippo on treasure trove cove lack?
So this is literally a free version of Pokemon Trozei? Cause even the darn Pokemon heads are the same as Trozei, and it honestly just makes the game less appealing
I been looking forward to this, I like the battle mechanic. Gives it an extra little twist, not just matching symbols.
I seriously hope though, it isn’t as bare as Nintendo’s previous free-to-play games.
Nintendo really needs to get with the program, if they’re serious about trying to tap into this particular market. They need to put more effort into things, and stop being so stingy. The PS4 and Xbox One offer way more when it comes to free-to-play games, and they aren’t tied to the subscriptions either. So you don’t even need PS+ or Live to play these games online, and the content these games have that is completely free, really is staggering in comparison to Nintendo’s free-to-play games.
If you’re going to try something, at least do it right. Cause at this rate Nintendo isn’t going to make much money from the free-to-play model if they keep this up. Then they’ll just abandon it wondering why no Nintendo fans cared about their free-to-play games.
In all honesty they’re more like demos, than free-to-play games. I guess to Nintendo, since they’re the only people who limit how often you can even play a demo.. This is acceptable to them. In reality, not Nintendo’s reality, it isn’t acceptable.
Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball and Steel Diver are an absolute joke in terms of free content. So here’s to hoping this is actually worth downloading this time.
Well said
I thought it was already confirmed that there would be some sort of generic energy mechanic involved.
“There is a limit to how many stages you can play through without taking a break. This number will be replenished with time, but you can also purchase items in the game’s shop that will enable you to continue playing immediately, if you choose.” From pokemon.com. This is not good fellas.
Wow that’s just fucking stupid.
Pokemon shuffle sounds rather lame. But at least Pikachu still has his fame.
And WTF kind of game is this? A match card game? No thanks. I want something bigger and better than Trozei on training cards or another fuck up like Mystery Dungeon/Sticker Star.
