For crying out loud, this is not a B-I-G change, its barely a change at all. The stadium games are old, out dated. And this so called tradition was broken when pokemon colosseum came out, not when PBR came out. Idon't remeber any mini games in colosseum, do you?
 
Or maybe you're just a stingy penny pincher whom, I reiterate from earlier, doesn't understand the true quality of what is right in front of you. You also, yet again, fail to realize that the game was designed for the sake of battling. the quality of the battles is excellent, the quality fo the battling options is excellent, what are you, a sony fan? Going for quantity instead of quality?
 
Eh, well maybe we need to mail a corrections letter to Nintendo Power, because they seem to think Colosseum had minigames too.

A stingy penny pincher? the game rated a 6.5 in Nintendo Power. I'm a smart shopper and I'm able to realize that this game is not worth 50 dollars. I told you, I've played the game, and it is fun, but for just battling in 3D, it's not worth 50 dollars. And what you fail to realize is that the game isn't designed for the sake of battling, it's designed to be an extension of Diamond and Pearl. The game isn't even worth buying unless you have either one of those games. If I was a Sony fan, I'd be talking about how weak the Wii system is in comparison to the PS3. But I'm a Nintendo fan, and I point out instead, how the Gameboy with pea green color beat out the Gamegear which had full color. Nintendo has always excelled with systems that had a smaller capacity for graphics.

Anyway, this discussion isn't about the console wars, it's about how PBR isn't a stadium game.

You are the only one flipping over the lack of mini games, I don't think anyone else really cares. NP is not going to post an editorial apology saying they're sorry they said the game had minigames, because no one cares, minigames fail in comparison to what the game is really about. Quite frankly, mini games would have made it worse in my book.

Actually, they do that sort of thing all the time.
And in the latest issue of Nintendo Power, when they rated PBR a 6.5 they said that was mostly due to the fact that it lacked minigames. Unlike games like Pokemon Stadium, Colosseum, and XD.

Whoo hoo!

*banging head on keyboard*

I don't know why Nintendo said that, but Colosseum never had minigames, never. Neither did XD.
 
Nobody should listen to any opinion a reviewer has about anything, because opinions are subjective and individual. An asset to one person is a liability to another. If you trust what reviewers have to say, it just proves how dependent, gullible, and manipulatable you are.

...Just saying, is all. :D

Y'know that mad me mad when I first read that, but then I read the last part, I couldn't help but laugh. Pretty funny dude
 
Well, that's why I played it.
 
But I'm serious, reviewers can't give an opinion that every reader would agree with. If I want to look up a game, I look up gameplay clips on YouTube. I want to see the product for myself, not listen to someone who got paid to churn out an essay based on ten minutes of playing.
 
I just read the review. a few quick notes:

one of the arguements: PBR has bad graphics. the NP review claims that PBR actually has the best graphics of all the Wii games to date.

secondly, although they do say that it's a shame they didn't use the Wii's capability for something like side quests or mini games, it still does what it's supposed to do very well. They list numerous ways how battling is made that much more fun through this game.
 
I like to know what well respected people think of the game, because they usually have a point. But I'd rather get a hands on than watch a video on youtube.

I mentioned that NP claims that PBR has some of the best graphics on the Wii, in the 'bad game, bad graphics, whatever' thread. But thanks for validating, that Nintendo Power said it was a shame that it didn't have minigames, could you also put what rating the game got? Because I'm reading a 6.5 which is worse than Mario Party 8, from the previous issue. It received a 7.
 
And the well respected people say, Quote,
In essence, Pokemon Battle Revolution serves to augment your experience with Diamond and Pearl-it performs its function aptly, but without the bells and whistles that POkemon Colosseum and Pokemon XD provided.

Which is of course, why the game got a 6.5 instead of a 1. It's an average title, not spectacular.
 
This whole thread is an insult to mankind. Period. So he doesn't like PBR because of the lack of mini-games. So what. He has an opinion, and just because OT complains, doesn't make him whiney. If it was all about mini-games, then you guys would be complaining, so lay off. Poliforce, don't call OT a penny pincher. Not everyone is rich like you, able to buy every game they see. Some people, like myself, needs to make sure the games they do buy are worth it. And your definition of quality is not the same as his.

And Ichida, like I said before, not everyone who reads reviews are what you say they are. I cannot test each game myself, so I do my homework on it. Read multiple reviews. Watch review shows. Compare them. Watch Youtube. Then make a decision.
