Yes, as I said in my earlier post I'm impressed by how much British history and culture seems to have influenced the new games thus far. I'm relieved that it's not all based around Arthurian legend but seems to be including references to Britain's more recent industrial past. However, I think...

Cheers. Good to see Great (British) minds are at work here. ??????

The Galar region is commonly known to be based on the United Kingdom but I've got to say I'm impressed by how much British history and culture seems to have influenced the new games thus far. Whether it's having Brit James Turner as Art Director or not the glimpses of the games to date show a...

Waiting for official release - haven't seen any Pokewalker ROMs yet. :) Historically Europe has always been keep waiting for new releases - lot of translation work to do for all the countries, legal constraints and different ratings systems. I believe French and German law has banned slot...
