Live Action Pokemon Movie - Gaming Thoughts

Live Action Pokemon Movie - Gaming Thoughts

Recent rumors have popped up recently of Nintendo wanting to make a live action Pokemon movie and apparently 3 companies are making bids to get this project. So I'm going to give you my thoughts on this.

I for one am not a big movie goer, I actually prefer televised episodic series cause those can go much more into the story because they are not as limited in how long they can be. I also prefer animated series over live action as well.

As for the story I have no idea what they could do other than something like Pokemon Origins as getting a whole Pokemon adventure into one movie would be difficult do to the length, but perhaps if they instead did something similar to the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series and just brought someone to a world of Pokemon to save it.

Even though the movie is to be live action the Pokemon would still have to be animated in some way, they will probably look close to what they looked like in Pokken Tournament. If this is the case I guess it would be okay but I just don't really think this movie really needs to be made. I might re think this once I get more information on this but for now I'm not that interested.

Video: Super Mario Bros. Speedrun Record Has Been Broken

Youtuber Darian recently beat the world record speed run of Super Mario Bros. by only a fraction of a second. The run used some glitches that I didn't know about but then again I don't usually keep up with these runs.

My Zelda Wii U Map Analysis

I know people have already done map analysis of the Zelda Wii U map ages ago but I wanted to give you guys my own which I actually did months ago and just forgot about.



While doing my analysis I noticed that the map is similar to that of the Ocarina Of Time and Twilight Princess maps as well as some others.

Zora's Domain

 This place is not only the home of the Zora's but also the source of most of Hyrule's water. I've seen some people put it on Snow Peak or up by Death Mountain, but in both OOT and TP Zora's Domain was at neither of these locations and actually between the 2 mountains as you actually go quite away from those mountains in those video games.

 I also took notice in the Other Zelda games that the rivers from Zora's Domain actually go underground at some points and that the entire river cannot be seen from above. You see this in Twilight Princess and not so much in Ocarina of Time but Zora's Domain was underground.

Death Mountain

This place has always been to the northeast areas of the games  and more east in OOT and TP (Wii version was mirrored). We can even see some lava rivers and even Death Mountain Crater on the map.

Kokiri Forest / Faron Province

This my come up as a shock but while I was analyzing the map and comparing it to the other game, I realized that Kokiri Forest and Faron Province are in the exact same location (although it's more like a theory). I think maybe after the Deku Tree died in OOT the Hylians went to help out the Kokiri's since they didn't have a guardian, although this could of ended up preventing the Deku Tree Sprout from growing and the Kokiri's being wiped out be Twilight Princess. It's not like Humans of are world haven't made that mistake before.

Now Playing AVGN2 ASSimilation On Youtube

The second game featuring the Angry Video Game Nerd is finally out and I've started lets playing the game. Follow along as I see what this new installment has in store for us. The new game features a new level select similar to Super Mario Land 2, I'm referring to this game instead of Super Mario Brothers 3 because in SML2 you could choose to go to any world unlike SMB3 where you had to go through the worlds one by one.

5 Things To Add To Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon

things to add to the pokemon series
  For the past few generations I've felt that the Pokemon games have been a little stale and just a repeat of what's already established. I've been wanting something to make it more interesting to pull me back into the series like I used to be. Well here are 5 Things To Add To Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon.

If Pokemon Could Have 3 Types - Part 1 - Changing The Meta Game

I'm sure most of us have thought what it would be like if Pokemon could have up to 3 types instead of maxing out at 2. Some Pokemon could definitely benefit from it, but would it break the meta game? The answer is yes, but is that a bad thing?

What Changes Would Have To Happen To Get This In?

Right now type advantages is currently set to double the damage for each type the attack type is effective against and halved for ineffective types. Using an attack that is also the same type as the Pokemon using it also gets it doubled in power. Because of this the max damage can be at most 8x the original amount. If you add a third type to it the max damage would be 16x the amount and that is definitely a problem.

To get Pokemon with three types into the game we would have to change this. Here is what I suggest.

Pokemon the same type as attack - 2x
Pokemon type weak against attack - 2x
second type advantage gets an additional - 1.5x
Third type advantage gets an additional - 1.5x
- Together this makes 9x the damage
- This also bring down the normal effective against two types down to a x6

After that if the Pokemon has a resistance then the damage - 0.5x
Then for an additional resistance the damage is then cut an additional - 0.5x
If all the Pokemon types are resistant to the attack type then the Pokemon is completely unaffected by the attack.
- I decided it would be fair to give immunity to Pokemon that had three types over the attacking type.

So mostly the resistance didn't change much except for the possible immunity.
