I received a few details for #Pokémon#Legends#Arceus
I talked about the inspirations for the title development, but if I had to describe it I'd say it's somewhere in between BotW's exploration set in areas that are somewhat reminiscent of Xenoblade's openworld wilderness style.
What I mean by that.
Some may expect Legends to be a game with a similar scope to BotW, in fact it is better to lower expectations, the map will be large but exploration will mainly be driven more for the search of rare pokémon.
I don't know how many people have played Xenoblade 1 or 2, but I would compare them as a style to Bionis Leg or Gormott. Large wilderness areas with some points of interest and only a few villages.
Also, compared to the Xenoblade titles, the story will not be on the same levels.
The title will be ambitious for the developers, but its experimental nature may disappoint those who have too high expectations.
On balance we are talking about a game whose main objective is exploration to complete the pokédex and discover the origin of some myths of the region.
There are also some gameplay aspects that I found interesting. Not only at the level of exploration with the many pokémon that allow you to traverse the world but also as game mechanics such as the presence of ranch as pokémon deposit.
You can always bring with you 6 pokémon, so you will need to organize the team and items before leaving the village to explore. In fact, even in the wild you will not always be able to buy tools, at most you can find some berry or merchant.
I also used Xenoblade as an example because of the "boss" enemies that will be found on the map, which can also attack the player. The game environment will not always be peaceful.

Missing some Tweet in this thread? You can try to
force a refresh
Didn't you find the inclusion of the sequel to #BreathoftheWild in the #NintendoSwitch#OLED advertisement a bit odd, despite the fact that they could have just as well used other titles like Skyward Sword given its upcoming release?
(More in the comment)
As I had mentioned at the beginning of the year, the title was slated for the anniversary, but with the covid delays the plans have shifted to a 2022. The team will certainly take advantage of these extra months, to increase the quality of the game...
but if you think that will be released in 2022 late, even postponed again in 2023, I'm sure that Nintendo will give you a nice surprise 😉
Get ready because this is going to be a bit of a long thread. A couple of months ago I talked about two models in development, a more powerful version and one that is on par with the basic but with some of the features of the new model. #NintendoSwitch#Oled is exactly the latter
I knew the OLed version would come out sooner, not surprisingly I had talked that there would be no major changes in terms of chipsets used for the 2021 console....
But what are Nintendo's plans?
Simple, for the first few months make the two models coexist, to dispose of the basic one and then, in 2022 place the OLED as the new base (after a price cut).
This is the month of Sinnoh! Soon TPC will finally reveal information about upcoming Pokémon games. I investigated a bit about the lack of Presents in June and the reasons are as follows:
-To give GF a few more weeks to polish Legends.
-Identify possible Unite network issues
The network test in Japan went with few problems, the launch set for this month should not be delayed and its release will be soon.
In these days they will continue to promote it showing the abilities of pokemon and maps daily before arriving at its release.
As for Diamond and Pearl remakes do not expect "Big" reveals, but I'm sure the return of some features will make many fans happy
Many sites are reporting now rumors about a Pokémon Presents before E3 2021, even though I had already clearly mentioned it a few days ago and with a teaser last month, the "one more stop before the destination" 😉 #NintendoLeak#Pokemon#NintendoSwitch#E32021
I had already talked about these details in private with some people like @NintyPrime , now I make them public. The main focus will be three titles Unite, DP Remakes and Legends, alongside other small updates for mobile games like Master and Cafe Mix, and Switch titles
The Pokémon Company's plans are to revitalize interest in Unite after it was poorly received by the public. Announcing certain aspects along with the main games is one of their moves to appease fans.
