Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Dual Pack is the strangest thing in pokemon

Pokemon Omega Ruby and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire Dual PackStrange in a sense of “that will never happen” way. Nintendo capitalized on selling the same game twice under the multiplayer excuse and I’m fine with that as pokemon made me love the original gameboy. I have played and enjoyed all the pokemon games up to date and even used to watch the show and this is by far the strangest thing I thought we will never see.

Why am I making a big deal about it? For starters you were not meant to own the other version, instead you had to find a friend to trade with. At least that was the idea. Seeing both games together in this awesome pack for $79.92 made my day. The 200 potions feels out of place but a good free bonus. Overall, a great package.

Pokemon goes V.R using Oculus Rift

pokemon_vrA dream come true for old school Nintendo and Pokemon fans. Pokemon has gone VR. Well not really but this test created by a developer using a motion control and Oculus Rift.

How do I personally feel? I don’t know. Sure it’s cool to be using VR in games but are we there yet? And the most important question; Will this be the next 3D? I remember the craze that came along with the new 3D technology, I my self own a 3D TV and I am yet to test it. Truth is, no body cares any more. The hype shifted to the smart TV which is basically running android on your TV. And with the whole Facebook, Oculus Rift deal things can go south.

I’m not saying this is the next gimmick but I also not sold that this is the future. Just like flying cars, this is just something we are not yet ready to do. Concentrate on making Great games > This VR thing.

I just don’t want this to be the next Wii controller. Doing VR for the sake of VR. Concentrate on making great games and when if Oculus Rift becomes mainstream then and only then jump on the train. Now I realize that no official statement or support been made regarding this but I feel like developers will take note and try to early adopt for the sake of adoption.

I said it twice, I will take great games over new gimiks any day.
