More Ranch Photos Friday / 08.01.08 / 12:46PM / Joe / comments: 3
Finally got around to exporting some recent Ranch snapshots. As much as I like the photography thing, Ranch photos definitely get very samey very quickly. Pokemon, white fence, mountains. Check.
The one of Clark I sized up specifically to use as a PS3 background! Haven't tried it out yet.
If you know anybody with Pokemon Ranch, you'll occasionally be visited by their Mii and asked if you want to travel to their ranch. If you do, the game warps you to them... although in real-world terms, it's actually the game warping a non-real-time dupe of their entire ranch to your Wii's temporary game memory. Like these few examples from Ben's Pokemon Ranch. But you still get to see their entire collection, which is nice.
Like Ben's sweet green Espeon!
Ben stuck a Dialgia and Palkia in his ranch.
And he has a Shaymin, the dirty cheater!
There's my sister and her Eevee in my ranch. You can transfer pokemon from several DS games; it doesn't have to be linked to just one DS/Pokemon combo.
And there's the snowman item freezing Rhonda.
Gastlys are always menacing like that.
That thing with the Pichu is a sparring partner, and if a pokemon successfully scores a hit on it, it vomits piles of LSD-laced sugar cubes.
The microphone is really cool. When a pokemon gets close to it and makes a sound, you hear it out of the Wii Remote's speaker. Of course, the sound is still limited to all those crappy Game Boy era white noise SFX, but Nintendo has ignored my pleas for real pokemon voice acting for about ten years now.
And that's all we have time for today! |
Have you played an hour yet? Don't forget to rate it on the Nintendo Channel!
HARVEST MOON FTW!!1
Hahaha, I didn't cheat!
Somebody cheated and then ended up giving me their dirty little illegitimate Pokemon.
Ah, the Pokemon black market. I have a few of those myself.
