Is there any news regarding Pokemon Bank shutdown? That's the only thing I care about when it comes to this franchise, unless there is another series of leaks.
Officially? What they said and I am paraphrasing: we don’t know honestly. However we advise you to move your niggas as soon as possible.
That was 2022 - 2023 when the whole eshop went under and Bank became free

This was never brought up since, some speculated that Bank being free is actually part of Home subscriptions hence why it’s expensive.
Now if Nintendo decided to pull the plug on Bank, fear not! The super roped trooned already got you covered, they will release Bank to their servers the moment they officially confirm the closure.
 
Speaking of winds and waves, do you guys think they delayed it to 2027 because GTA 6 is (presumably) coming out in later in 2026? The only other reason is that they genuinely needed more time to gen 10 the best game they could (which is very unlikely given what we saw with ZA). I'll be fair and say that they're at least showing game play for wind and waves. Looking back retrospectively ZA not showing gameplay at all in 2024 and only in early 2025, you know the same year it was releasing, was a huge red flag.

I know mine and many others opinions on this aspect might be clouded because of how it turned out. (I'll admit I haven't played ZA yet, but considering it looks less fun than SV...) But there's a good chance they delayed it but still only started working on it in 2025.

I truly believe so, and in this direct in few hours I believe we will see more stuff planned for 2027
For this alone I am praying that GTA will be delayed to 2027 … the mass panic alone will be so worth it

GTA and Pokemon have very different audiences. GTA6 is a giant event, yes, but it's a giant event for older kids and adults. Pokemon has been so toddlerfied for so long that only manchildren and elementary-school kids are still into it. By the time someone is old enough to play GTA6, they will rarely still care about Pokemon.

I can still believe that Gamefreak delayed WiWa due to GTA6, if only because they're fucking retarded, but there's no real business reason to do so.

I know the bank app is no longer available, I just need to know if they're planning to shutter the servers. You never know with Nintendo/Gamefreak, they both tend to shut down content for previous gen systems regularly.
Better show some wind and waves during the direct tonight, I cant think of any other bing bing wahoos I even care about for the switch 2 despite owning one.
I can't fathom why anyone would be excited for that dogshit game. If the leaks are anything to go by, it will just be Scarlet/Violet part 2. The only thing I am interested in is if the part of the leak regarding basing the region off DEI mandates was true, wouldn't surprise me with current jewtendo and goyfreak.
