Title: My Pokemon Rumble U shame
Post by: Miyamoto on August 24, 2013, 07:06:18 AM
I think I need help. I'm a grown-ass man that has shelled out far too much on the little Pokemon Rumble U figurines. This is not healthy. I haven't even tried the game yet and I've got 9 of the little things at £4 a pop already. Americans heed my advice and stay well away... if anyone wants to trade doubles, DM me... (sobs)

Nice. Don't be sad a least its not Skylanders or Disney nfinity. Now those are crack.
Infinity and Rumble are taking the most basic aspect of Skylanders (buy these toys!), but little of what makes the toys actually useful. With Rumble, they're using the toys as keys for in-game locks. Skylanders and Infinity, you can level up and improve the toy, then bring it to another game or a friend's house and still have all those upgrades. Then, there's the aspect of Infinity that irks me the most - the fact that you can only use certain figures in certain levels. It would have been super-cool to have been able to use famous Disney characters from one movie in another game, but... blah.

But the toys are optional in Rumble U. why leveling up toys are cool its he only way to play the game. Plus all the items being random boosters.
I think the devs said the play sets are made for certain characters since others would break the game.

Miyamoto is your avatar from the *ahem* movie, the room, if so you realise that's voted as the worst movie ever right!?

Keep your stupid comments in your pocket!
So I played a bit of the game and surprise, surprise it's not very good. You essentially just run around mashing buttons until you win. In a way that's kinda good for me, if the game was actually good then the toy addiction could be a serious problem, as it is I'll probably just buy a few more and then leave it at that.

So, it turns out that the Eevee that I have is a chase variant and is going on ebay for over £20. Score!
