@@TheCaptainSplatter If you use it with the Lets Go games on the switch, you do in fact throw it. Theres a strap attached that you use to keep it in place and it has a motion sensor that tracts its movement as you do a throwing motion (but don't actually let go) and the game tracks the motion to see if hit the Pokemon. If you use it with Go it just functions as a Pokemon Go Plus, however if you import a Pokemon from Lets Go into it and then use it with Go, you get various small bonuses in Lets Go.

Probably! or, what I think anyway, they didn't think of having the physical ball yet or Niantic, maybe even their own engineers told them it's not feasible. Cut to that Kickstarter blowing up and making the rounds of a bunch of gaming sites. Someone, probably someone at Nintendo of America, sees it. Geta in contact with Nintendo HQ and while they're drafting up papers to DMCA the Kickstarter. Someone acknowledges that the ball would be an instant success and make a stupid amount of money. So they start negotiating with those people. Ask them to take down the Kickstarter, because that's happening regardless, and they have a prototype of a toy they wanted to make anyway. Now if you were to ask why the deal didn't go through... My speculation would be that they were offered a pittance of what it was worth. Basically insulting their intelligence. This is the most favorable way I see things going down as far as Nintendo being dicks. What is more likely, because it's happened to quite a few others, tho not a Nintendo's hand. What is more likely is that Nintendo, under the guise of checking out the prototype, asked to borrow it to show other executives. Which would give them time to take it apart. Photograph it. Make notes of all the components if necessary. Then again I'm probably giving these people WAY too much credit and the prototype might be so easy to put together any experienced electronic toy engineer could slap it together in a weekend. This has just been my and friends experience dealing with large corporations. So I could be completely wrong on all counts... But I doubt it

I decided just for the heck of it to check how the campaign was doing on [what I didn't realize was] the final day the Kickstarter was up for and noticed all the changes that had happened from the [essentially] cease and desist they got from Nintendo on the project. I ended up just cancelling my backing status, but I feel bad for those who ended up not checking within the final days of this project only to be duped into a product they didn't actually want.

Nah, the pokeball plus was in development before these guys had their idea, it just wasn't public yet. There were other attempts for go things and balls nintendo stopped that weren't on kickstarter. While the patent for pokeball plus came later, nintendo held trademarks and patents on concept devices and pokeball in general well before. Its just a case of similar obvious ideas. Also Atomicloli most people got the ball for go, rather than for the switch game. It has some additional features and works better than the wrist strap. Pokemon in the ball can spin stops for you while you are doing other things, and that alone is worth it for the pokemon go groups.

Problem is the Pokeball Plus is just a glorified GO+ Wristwatch or GOTCHA Watch: it only spins stops and catches pokemon with a press of a button or automatically (if you know how to set it up). The only way to throw a pokeball with the Pokeball Plus is through the Let's Go series for the Switch, which is a shame for how well this actually works.

Protip: one of the best controller-related investments you can make, if you ask me, is Mayflash's Magic-NS adapter. If there's pretty much *any* console released in the past 15 years or so with a controller that you like using, chances are that controller's compatible and you can use it freely on XB1, PS3/4, Switch, or PC. And that timespan is even longer when daisy-chained with other adapters like the ones Raphnet offers.

The players of this game were bad enough when it only involved them going where they shouldn't go, making them launch projectiles would have been so much worse.

Most of the time, 3rd-party controllers for consoles are made - and bought! - because they're cheaper than the originals. But thise sometimes high prices for the genuine article aren't always just a big money grabbing scheme. Still, people are always surprised that less money buys them less quality. Those knockoff manufacturers want to profit from the whole thing, too, after all... In order to get a good alternative controller, you usually have to spend money in the same ballpark as for the original one, and that kinda defeats the purpose. It only makes sense if these alternatives offer something unique (in addition to quality), like that 8bitdo SF30Pro that's shaped like a SNES controller.

The difference: the Thrustmaster was 20 euros cheaper, and frankly, I don't know why an original Xbox controller would cost any more.

I don't understand how what Kickstarter does is legal. They don't require that "rewards" be offered out of the goodness of their hearts. They do it because they need a certain thing that lawyers call "consideration." They are essentially selling these "rewards" to you. Imagine if you bought something off eBay or Amazon and you never received anything. You think it would fly if Amazon tried saying "welp we already gave them your money and they aren't responding to our emails. Try saying that you want a refund and our terms of service entitle you to one, maybe they'll reconsider defrauding you."

I'm curious how the ALL Controller kickstarter will pan out.

So that's where the PokéBall Plus idea came from, that's why it also looks so underdeveloped, and has no signs of teaching you how to play with it in game, only with the joy con(Pokemon Let's Go Eevee/Pikachu)

Closest i have to 3rd party controllers are PDP wired controllers for the Switch, but they're still Nintendo Switch licensed. My nephew has had issues with 3rd party xbox controllers. For christmas my mom bought him a 1st party xbox controller. My mom might not be the most knowledgeable with technology, but she knows you get the controllers made by the people who made the system.

The last one got me after hearing the moving part from California to Texas then 2 days of rain in swamp lands with a state that is actually a desert state. Even some of the dumbest people I know who wouldn't fall for that one.

22:16 but Nintendo did end up creating their own pokeball controller that has motion controls although it’s for the switch but it works with Pokémon go to some extent it’s called the pokeball plus

Paul named that thing a slight variation on "grifter", and nobody saw his bailing out coming?

I love the idea that "8 gb is enough storage for every cartridge based game." I have a full rom set of Game Boy Color games, and it's 2.1gb. My Game Boy Advance games, which is only a SMALL fraction of the full set, is a little over 5gb. Game Boy ALONE would take up most of that 8gb of space. That's not even counting NES, SNES, Genesis, Master System, 32x, Game Gear, multiple old Atari consoles, Atari Lynx, Neo Geo Pocket/Color, N64, PC Engine, and however many others there are... I have an entire 4tb external hard drive, specifically for roms and isos. 8gb wouldn't do a damn thing. Sure, you could probably put your favorite games on it, but that's it. Even my little cheapo emulation handheld has a 256gb sd card in it.

Yo, dawg I've always wanted to see some horror game streamer hook up to one of those perifit type medical devices along with heartrate sensor. I think it would be thoroughly entertaining to monitor the degree of pubo-rectal sling clench i throughout Resident Evil 7. Nobody has taken me up on this idea. I don't think it's a big deal but I'm also not the most spookable person. So I'm not an ideal candidate. It's also like, way too expensive for a laugh. Seriously. Medical devices are no joke.

That last one sounds like a joke. Also if there's a way to get a Pokemon fan to part with their money chances are someone will find the most stupid way to.

The kegel one wasn't necessarily bad to start with (the product isn't exactly original), though the fact it didn't work makes it a fair addition to the video.

The thing is with the pokemon go one is that nintendo used the idea themselves a few years later ffs nintendo
