New Pokemon game announced! But…

Brace yourself for what quite possibly will blow your mind. Ready? Watch this:

The game is translated to “Pokemon + Nobunaga’s Ambition”. Nobunaga’s Ambition is a turn-based strategy RPG (kind of like Fire Emblem) that is set in feudal Japan times. Apparently in this game, you are supposed to gradually take over Japan as a “trainer”, and you start with an Eevee. Not much else is known about it.

Quite frankly, the first time I saw this I thought it was some kind of joke. It looks quite interesting though. What are your thoughts?

Game Music Monday: Lavender Town and those dang Unown

Ah, Pokemon. I remember when I popped in Red for the first time into my Game Boy Pocket. The fact that I could capture these creatures, battle with them, collect them… it was an amazing thing for my child self. Going to areas that, if thought of in my imagination, very beautiful places.

Then you get to Lavender Town. I was actually quite scared of this place when I was little. While other areas are happy, with nice music, Lavender’s music just is… weird. To me then is was pretty freaky. Now it’s just annoying. But it matches the setting. I mean, a dead Marowak killed by Team Rocket, ghosts, trainers possessed wanting your blood… gotta love when games for kids weren’t numbed down. Continue reading

In any type of fandom, it’s amazing what can happen when fans get together, agree on one thing, and push that idea. It doesn’t always get their idea through to the creators, but it normally brings a community closer with a common goal (and makes for a good story). Continue reading
