Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The fifth Global Mission in Pokemon Sun & Moon has begun. This time, the goal is to hatch as many eggs as possible – 200,000 is the goal. If this goal is reached by April 10th, 23:59 UTC, the mission is considered a success and all players will receive 2000 FC. Failure will result in 200 FC instead. As per usual, these rewards are doubled if your save game is tied to a Global Link account.
Furthermore, if players contribute 3 or more hatched eggs to the cause, they will receive a Rare Candy. If a total of 400,000 eggs are hatched between all players, everyone with a Global Link account will receive a Love Ball.

Dragon Quest XI (3DS): Gameplay difference between 2D and 3D mode detailed
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
While the screenshots posted on the official Dragon Quest XI website mostly covered stuff we already knew about, there was one interesting new piece of information in there. As it turns out, the ability to switch between the classic 2D sprite look and the more modern 3D appearance in the 3DS version of the game is more than just cosmetic. In 2D mode, battles start via random encounters. In 3D mode, you can actually see the monsters as you walk around – and you can attack them to gain a preemptive strike. Conversely, monsters will attack you first if they see your approach.
