@Vanitas_42@Light_88_ The thing is that old players are forced to buy those ports after bank is shutdown. All it does is directly harm them if they already own these games. It's better than nothing, but it's unfair to long-time players and demotivates them.
@Vanitas_42@Light_88_ yeah I'm all for give new players a chance and making old games available to them easily. Just don't takeaway the fun for the old players. Also the FRLG ports are like 30 CAD each and I think that's pretty expensive, and if they charge that for GBA ROMs, imagine DS and 3DS.
@Vanitas_42@Light_88_ I do think that their solution to this problem is probably bringing old games to the switch, I just think it's an uncool solution for long-time players who already own these games and are forced to buy them again to transfer pokemon from them.
@Vanitas_42@Light_88_ not everyone has time to do all that when they are busy with other things and we don't know if we can transfer pokemon from like gen 3 to 4 and not directly to home so we can get ribbons. bank/transporter is also needed to transfer gen 1/2/5/6 pokemon to gen 7 by the way.
@ChoujinVirus@Edelethtildeath why can't both options coexist other than saving costs? People can play the digital versions of the game if they like when they hit the switch eshop, but some people prefer to play on the copies they already own and don't want to buy them again for a feature that exists years ago
@Pokelov47502816@TeaganLoomis People have also put up their own suggestions rather than mine. I know it's unlikely to get Nintendo and TPC to listen and I understand that maybe it's better to resign yourself to not expect anything from them so you don't get disappointed later, but this is better than nothing.
Pokemon fans, please send requests tickets asking for an end of service software update that makes Pokemon Bank and Pokemon Transporter usable offline and locally connect to HOME so we don't lose access.
