Obviously if gamefreak started asking for 10 bucks per legendary or 5 bucks to actually battle people i would just avoid that shit and just use a simulator online or something.

Pokémon Box Ruby and Sapphire was a full-price Gamecube game, $50. It was capable of holding 1,500 Pokémon (Pokémon Bank is capable of holding 3,000). PBR/S only functioned for Gen 3 games, Bank functions with Gen 6 and all future games. It came out on July 11, 2004 in the United States. Note that Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire came out on March 19, 2003. Pokémon Diamond and Pearl came out on April 22, 2007, rendering PBR/S obsolete. PBR/S, then, cost $16.66 per year for half the storage Bank is supplying and with the added hassle of needing at least one GameCube console. At least the game came with the GC/GBA Link Cable and a 59 Block Memory Card.>$16.66 per year of use before it became obsolete >1.1 cents per slot per year >$10 for .75 of a year, adjusted to $13 per year of use before it became obsolete >1.3 cents per slot per year, when adjusted for the fact that the game had less than one year lifespan >$5 per year >0.16 cents per slot per year

Gen 3 had half of the NationalDex unobtainable. You had to wait till Gen 1 remake to get some, then Emerald introduced some Gen 2, and you still had to get Coliseum/XD just to get the rest of Gen 2 Pokemon.

Theyre really rather shallow game sin terms of NEW content. A majority of the new content you mentioned is more like new features, which differs in the sense that they dont so much extend game time than make the existing game play more unique

>>16764524 Oh. That's right.
Pokebank is a paid subscription-based storage service, though with one month free for the first year or so. It is the largest of Game Freak's official storage services, and will also be the cheapest per year of relevance.
PokeTransporter is a separate app that moves Pokemon from Gen V and later games to Pokebank, and from Pokebank to GenVI and later games. It is (technically) free.
Just like how transferring from IV to V was (technically) free, even though a second DS is not. PokeTransporter is free, but that means fuck all after the trial if you didn't subscribe to Pokebank. Pokebank is not a transfer service, it's a storage service. (For reference: Box RS was something like $60, and only worked for Gen III, which lasted about 4 years. My Pokemon Ranch was about $15, and only worked for Diamond and Pearl outside of Japan. The math from there is simple.)
Who knows? Maybe Poke Transfer will be updated in the future to allow local storage for brief amounts of time. Save a box to the system memory (for up to 24 hours before it gets deleted) so you can move it up to X/Y/beyond.
Also, now that Masuda has stated that they won't do paid DLC, I think we're safe from the slippery slope until he leaves Game Freak. That's his pride as a man on the line. He'll sudoku for such a shamefur disprae if Pokemon starts relying on micro transactions.
>>16765236 You can just type in the species name of what you want on GTS now. You don't even need to have seen it. That's how we first confirmed that Hoopa, Diancie, and Volcanion actually existed.
>inb4 lol GTS It's yet another form of trolling kiddies on wifi. Trick them out of their Poke Transferred Pokemon with the same things you've been using thus far. Hell, 90% of the legendaries are probably going to be Pokegenned, anyway, so it's even easier.

Game Freak obviously tailors to their main fanbase, the Japanese. People in the middle of nowhere got screwed by the C-Gear and White Forest/Black City, and Join Avenue, and every new feature that requires frequent interaction with other players.
>You dont take into consideration the people who have shit internet anyways because of long distance data transfer Again, extreme minority. They've got great internet in Japan, the people they're catering to. Damm near all of Tokyo is a wi-fi hotspot. These same people get screwed over by wi-fi battles, and GTS trades and anything else that requires long distance internet.
>You still dont take into consideration the ability to be able to save money and plan ahead, which doesnt take into account that once you have a 3ds, you have it, where internet is an expensive luxury that you have to pay monthly Extreme minority yet again. The vast majority of Pokemon players have internet or at least access to the internet.

I'm not even going to use pokebank because I have absolutely no use for it. If I did, I would have no problem paying $5 because it's next to nothing. I could get that money back well within a week, not to mention an entire year.

If they offered a way around it, to locally trasfer pokemon is YOU ALREADY THREW MORE MONEY AT THEM, nobody would give a damn. But they're locking the entire feature behind a paywall, which pisses some people off. It's the entire reason I didn't get the 360, and why I'm not touching the Xbone or Plebstation4

>>16765767 I guess the implication is that some ISP out there is not shitty? Anyway you want to look at it if I were still with that ISP(which fun fact everyone in that area is because of some crazy cross company scam they have running) I would not expect to be able to use the bank without traveling ~30 miles away to get a better connection.

>>16765827 That everyone is just assuming you can share a bank. No one has any proof that this will be doable. I guess in the case of siblings who live in the same house(in my case none do) sharing one 3DS just with the bank is feasible.

>>16765900 Okay, then this discussion has just come full circle.
There has always been a paywall to at least some extent to transfer 'mons (except 3->4?)
The only difference is that this is cheaper than ever before and comes with additional functionality.
These are all things we've established through our discussion.

>>16765900 Okay, so when this "poor person" gets the $100 for a 2DS plus the $35 for Pokémon X or Y, an additional $5 to transfer from their old game is REALLY going to make this an insurmountable goal.
Anonymous
>>16765916 Forgot to note, that $5 is non-recurring for them because they only have to pay for one year and transfer all their shit over.
Anonymous
>>16765909 >but not everyone has siblings and telling that to some /vp/ers doesnt offer an alternative. You can use your friends and all that and it'd be completely fine too. Either way though, there's only two possible ways to do it.
GF forces players to purchase additional consoles to transfer.
GF forces them to use a $5 app.
This is basically what my point was.

>>16765909 Pokebank is meant to be able to permanently hold all of your Pokemon and transfer to every generation after this. Why the fuck would the bank be linked to a single 3DS?
