Raising Pokemon was one of the areas Game Freak placed great emphasis on while developing Pokemon X/Y.

Director Junichi Masuda, in an interview with Famitsu, explained that players tend to play games less these days. And so raising Pokemon is much easier than before. As an example, experience points can be gained simply by catching another Pokemon.

“While we did integrate a lot of detailed adjustments into the game balance, another part would be the ease of raising Pokémon. Nowadays, we have the Internet, smartphones, and more, so I think the time spent playing games has decreased.”

“For those reasons, we made it much easier to raise your Pokémon that will allow you to play smoother and more comfortably than before. For example, simply catching a Pokémon with a Pokéball will net you some experience points.”

System: Nintendo 3DS
Release Date: September 20th, 2013
Developer: Zeptolab
Price: $9.99

Author: Jack

Ever go to prom? Remember the overwhelming tension and excitement surrounding the build-up to the big day? Rushing to get a last-minute suit vest the same hue as your beloved sweetie pie’s dress, making sure that painful last payment on your limousine rental went through, flipping through your anthology for the optimal Ja Rule record on the way there to set the mood just right… ah, I can almost feel it as though it were yesterday. In fact, my prom was yesterday (I’m in the Navy), and the most vivid memory I have of that fateful eve was getting my mullet trimmed and cut into a bowl cut earlier that afternoon.

While there’s surely no surrogate to be had for a proper trim and cut, with the recent release of Cut the Rope from hitherto unknown Russian developer ZeptoLab, you can now come close to replicating the same pleasurable feeling I experienced at the hands of the barber in the comfort of your home with your 3DS stylus. At a price of $9.99 (compared to the lousy $17 run-around deal I got for a pretty standard bowl shape), Cut the Rope checks off every box a figurative contemporary downloadable game assimilates, and through sheer content and professionalism, releases as one of the most polished and notable puzzle titles to be consumed on the 3DS eShop. Om Nom.

I must be a terrible 3DS owner. This video reminded me how I just received my first StreetPass hit last week…

Some Pokemon X/Y players have encountered a glitch after saving in certain areas outside of Lumiose City. The bug, which results in game freezing, affects both the physical and digital versions of the game.

One user described the issue over at GameFAQs:

I saved near a cab in Lumiose City and now whenever I try to restart my game it immediately freeezes. It loads my trainer and all of my clothes as well as the buildings and their lighting effects, but none of the objects in the streets or the textures on the buildings show up.

Pokémon-Amie is also frozen on my bottom-screen without loading anything and the game won’t return to the Home menu when I push my button. I can hard-shutoff, but the 3DS internal software is completely frozen.

Apparently, one solution involves removing the SD card, and then starting up X/Y normally. It’s not clear if this is a universal glitch, but perhaps Game Freak/Nintendo will consider releasing a patch if reports become more widespread.

ONM has already received a review copy of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, and has shared lots of details about the game after playing the first four hours.

New information is as follows:

– Yuga appears and turns local sage Ceres into a painting
– He then takes down Link, who was delivering a sword to the captain of the palace guard
– Yuga is connected to Ganon
– Yuga is trying to gather the seven sages in order to free him from his magical prison
– Majora’s Mask is on the wall of your house
– Potions are now made by witches but can only be brewed if you you track down the right ingredients
– Some enemies drop particular items such as Monster Guts
– Will need a set number of these in order to get specific potions
– Button assignments aren’t immediately available
– Start off the game by assigning an item to “Y”
– You’ll find the Pouch later
– This lets you assign an item to the X button as well
– Hint Glasses is one of the first items you find
– Use the glasses to see Hint Ghosts (and possibly other hidden doorways)
– Ghosts demand payment before giving you hints

The full extent of Pokemon X and Pokemon Y’s sales is not yet known, but they’ve clearly gotten off to a fantastic start in the UK.

For the week ending October 12, both games took the top two spots in the individual formats category, and spots three/four in the all formats group. According to tracker Chart-Track, sales of Pokemon X/Y have doubled up on Black 2/White 2’s opening week.

I imagine we’ll be hearing more positive news about Pokemon X/Y’s sales in the coming days.
