These two games are on the same console.
Every gamefreak employee should get raped
no, they are not. it cannot possibly work. not two at the same time.
>>12897907Eh I mean they had to make a lot of sprites for the pokemon and the items and stuff. Takes up art time and you only have so much.
>>12897912you know those chink 196-in-1 carts? there are programs to make your own. all they do is build a menu rom and then merge the games into it
>>12897907so are dragon quest 5 and act raiser 2whats your point
>>12897907>60+ hours pokemon game (would have been more with post game, emerald would be 100+ hours)Vs>one of the shorter zelda games 20 hours at most and a complete stepback from the Chadracles which offered 60+ hours if you had both games to link upMinishcap is fucking and that comes from someone who loves 2d Zelda
>>12897986>measuring the value by lengthliteral cancer
>>12897986Yea the oracle games had an insane amount of content if you treat it as one release. Minish cap works well as a technical showcase of the hardware but its a step down from every gb zelda
>>12897996Length is among the most important things a game can have, you're just mad because you relate to games with short length likes your dick LOL. >>12898006I agree but it's a technical showcase released on the Gameboy's Advance final years, kinda pointless.
>>12898019you want to sit there and read bc you're a pussy
>>12898030What? You think a game's length is related to how much you text it has? Are you retarded? Fucking minecraft already proves such nonsense wrong
>>12897932>Eh I mean they had to make a lot of sprites for the pokemon and the items and stuff. Takes up art time and you only have so much.It's completely normal for development to have different artists for environments, effects, and entities.
>>12898019>I agree but it's a technical showcase released on the Gameboy's Advance final years, kinda pointless.So all that work developing artistic skills on the NES and SNES accounted for... nothing? Pokemon has always looked like shit.
>>12898060The fuck do the nes and snes have to do with this, if the game's supposed to say "wow look at what the gba can do" I'm just saying it's kinda pointless to do that with the DS around the corner
>>12898065Here's the thing with pixel art, the actual artistic aspect of it is transferable to any other console, especially those that come later and have larger palettes, ROM size, and VRAM. If your GBA game looks worse than a SNES game, you are a fucking hack.
>>12898072Yet LA and the Oracle's have the best graphics, alttp is fucking ugly and mc is toon link gay shit
>>12898074Someone posts the Wind Waker rant.
>>12898072>Here's the thing with pixel art, the actual artistic aspect of it is transferable to any other consoleWring, not even Nintendo could transfer super mario bros to a portable without butchering it twice and that's a 8bit game, the problem is that it was made for bigger screens, it's not that simple as copy and pasting sprites
>>12897907I think both of these games look incredible so I'm not really sure your point.
>>12897907Pokemon has never really been a graphic powerhouse, the sole exception I would say is the generation 5 games since they really got to push the hardware there but even then stuff like the "sprite animation" in battle is still pretty cheap. Also those games are two years apart, Minish Cap was made when the system was long made outdated by the DS and devs had mastery of the hardware.
>>12898114Gen 5 looks like shit, the 3d isn't that good compared to full 3d games on the ds and the noodle arms overworld sprites are uglier than Gen 4's. Also the battles sprites while animated (very rougly) are pixelated as fuck, give me detailed sprites please.
>>12897907how many pokemon does minish cap have? less than 358?
>>12897907Minish Cap is so assthe stupid ass medalion mechanic ruined the game because everything is a medalion unlock instead of an interesting world interaction
>>12897907gen3 pokeymans gets done dirty af by emu screenshotsshit actually looks great on an actual GBA screen with no backlight
>>12897986>great gameplay>lmao>great gameplaySee, I can do it too
>>12898501Morrowind has way better and more complex gmaeplay than awful tank control slop and babby's first arpg featuring the little mermaid
>>12897986Both Minish Cap and the Oracles games (individual) are like 6-10 hour games dude. You have to be retarded to get stumped on the puzzles long enough to drag them out to 20 or more each.
>>12898551Oracle's have more content and it's not even a contest
>>12897907And the top one is a much better game. Lol
>>12898551not everyone had a walkthrough up on the 2nd monitor zoom zoom
>>12897907Okay. Minish Cap is still shit.
>>12897907the incomparable beauty of Gen III
>>12897986>Want to play another 10 hours right after finishing the game>bored after 1 hour>Best action game ever madeMinish Cap may be on the lower end of 2d Zelda but length had little to do with it. If the game had no rng it would already be several tiers better to experience, while extending its duration with the same bullshit WRPGs do would make it less than mediocre.
>>12898839
>>12898019>Length is among the most important things a game can haveyour kind is why modern games suck.
>>12898930Yeah this is why we have 6 hours long modern games like Wolverine!
>>12898645Cope. They're about the same length at ALTTP and you're just dumb and bad at games if you can't finish them in 10 hours max. Minish Cap is longer if you want to do all of the kinstone fusions and get all of the figurines, which is mostly pointless busywork.
>>12899082why are you lying anon? is this the only place where you don't get mercilessly bullied?
>>12899082Yes the 11 dungeon game is the same length as the 5 dungeon game, retard
>>12897907So are CluClu Land and Kirby's Adventure. What's your point?
>>12899285It is indeed, glad we agree.
>>12897907Am I supposed to think that Minish Cap looks better? Because it really doesn't, Gen3 is one of the best looking games on the GBA and peak comfy.
>>12899285Yes because you have all of the pre-dungeon areas that don't let you just walk into the dungeon
