Pokemon: Fix it!

Pokemon is broken. I think it's time to fix it. I'm getting tired of playing the same damn game after 14 years. Here's my suggestions for how to fix the stale, old Pokemon franchise. Of course, it would be nice to see some of these changes in Black and White, and I give the percent chance of them happening.

On Rus McLaughlin's ROUNDTABLE'D! Game characters' top E3 2012 predictions!

"I fully support Agent 47."

On Nathaniel Dziomba's 10 ways to make your username less sucky

"If you google "Fuzunga", literally every result relates to me. (Well, except for some YT videos in a foreign language and some hex.rar thing I won't even pretend I understand.) Anyway, I'm pretty proud of the fact that I'm truly unique."

On Sam Barsanti's I'm pretty sure Fez thinks I'm stupid (but I won't stop playing it)

""Irregardless" is so commonly misused as a form of "regardless" that it is now recognized as a nonstandard word. Strange looks, sure, but you can't say somebody's WRONG for using it. Anyway, I'm an English nerd."

On Layton Shumway's 5 lesser-known NES games with killer soundtracks

"No Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Mega Man, or Castlevania?

Then I choose Kirby. I win.

Also, it's probably late for the era, but I'd like to throw Blazing Lazers out there. It's a Turbo Grafx game, but damn did I love the soundtrack."

On Carlos Alexandre's Super Smash Bros. Brawl: a beloved mess of contemptuous game design

"One of the best things about Brawl is how easy to mod it is. I've been playing the recently released Project M 2.0 demo and I have no complaints. Brawl+ is another excellent alternative if you don't want to wait for the complete Project M with all the characters in it."

On Samir Torres' Puzzler: Are we there yet? Guess the video game maps

"2 and 10 I knew for sure. I guessed 1 and 7 right even though I've never played those games!"

On Samir Torres' Puzzler: Guess the video game asses (part 2)

"I recognized Voldo right away and now I hate myself."

On Samir Torres' Power up your Facebook profile with video-game-themed Timeline covers

"Sweet! Thanks for these!

Also, love how you went with a picture of white-hair Dante."

On Jasmine Maleficent Rea's Accessories won't save Kid Icarus: Uprising

"I'm about 99% sure that your preferred control scheme with the face buttons is one you can actually use in the game.

Also, I read on Joystiq early today that this game started out development on the Wii which actually explains everything regarding the awkward controls. I agree it seems like it would be perfectly suited to the Wii.

And while I'm thinking about it, I bought a grip for my 3DS when MK7 came out becuase that game was PAINFUL. It's solved all of my comfort prolems. It even acts as a stand that is vastly superior to the one that comes with Kid Icarus. I highly recommend it: http://amzn.to/HBCptu"

On Alex R. Cronk-Young's Journey put my four-year-old daughter and me on the same level

""She decided that even though we needed to hide from the dragons, she hoped that they were alright once we made it past because their other dragon friends might want to see them."

WHY ARE KIDS SO ADORABLE!?"

On Ed Grabowski's It's come to this: Why I'm suing Sony

"I think the point here is that it's vague about what you need to activate in order to obtain the game. The wording seems to imply that you get the game when you activate your free data session. It doesn't state that you need to purchase one first, then get the free one and the game together. It should read something like "Over $55 Bonus Value. 8GB Memory Card, Plus A Free Month Of AT&T Data And Downloadable Game With Purchase Of One Month AT&T Data Session For A Limited Time Only." This would clearly spell out all the conditions."
