the random rants of a starry mind

[planetary]

What the hell Nintendo of America

I mean seriously, Ethan? Why? He's not an Ethan, he's Gold in my eyes *waves old woman cane*

Lyra doesn't bother me, since Kotone is a crappy name and Lyra is pretty imo

The Rocket's names I couldn't care about, except Lance who got an inevitable name change.

I don't get renaming the itemfinder either, especially since it kept its original name in the original games!

ALSO WHY DID THEY REMOVE THE GAME CORNER GAMES WITH SOME CRAPPY MINDSWEEPER 8U Somebody please explain this bull shit.

idgi, its friggin pointless and annoying.

I kind of like the name Ethan, but I agree. It doesn't really fit into the vision of a Pokemon protagonist. Lyra's kind of nice though, so long as I keep hearing it in my head the way I have for years XD

Damnit, I guess they didn't want all the little kidlets who are buying this game to suddenly become gamblers *snorts* At least it's not soltaire? XD;;

pfft that argument falls apart when its still a chance game that you bet on, just in a more form.

I don't understand the Game Corner thing, either.

They didn't change the slot machines in the original Gold/Silver/Crystal :V But I'll admit, I actually do enjoy playing Minesweeper XD

As for Ethan, I just....LOL.

Because the original was too dark and edgy for kids these days *shakes cane*

Threadjacking

Your comment just totally reminded me of this XD

oh lol Im not that much of a puriest but it humors me~

Because heaven forbid the little american kids get to learn about a culture outside their own.

With the way things are, kids are gonna be ignorant as fuck when they grow up.

God Im glad I wasn't cheated out of that

LOL GAME CORNER, the European version already took it out in Platinum :||

Ethan... at first I didn't like it, but I guess it's not that bad for a name. I was actually more confused about the fact that they changed the name of Hidden Tower...

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Yeah, which is stupid. Kids don't even know its gambling :/

[falkner]

Kids, gambling is bad, but enslaving creatures and making them fight against each other to be "the very best" is a-okay!

I think they changed the Itemfinder to the Dowsing Machine because HGSS is a 4th Gen game and that way, it matches the same device in DPPt :)

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

It doesn't need to match though, its not like you can trade it to DPPt |3

Hey, when I played Silver I just named the guy Eryn and pretended that he was a girl and also Faulker's little sister. And then wrote fanfiction about it. I was 12 years old shut up. So no skin off my nose, at least? :U

Was I the only one in the world who really really hated that slots game? XD I have no future as a gambler, clearly.

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

At least you got to play as a female in Crystal >>; and we all do stupid things when we're 12.

idk I liked it and I was decent at it.

[porcelain-nishe.livejournal.com]

...wait, what?

They changed the Game Corner to mindsweeper? Lol! Why? They worried it's too "adult" for kids of today? Times have changed since I was a 9 year old playing the original Silver back in 2001 obviously XD

& Ethan & Proto? -_-

Clearly, although evil teams are still terrorists at least
