Hey Tim Schafer – Where is Pokemon Snap 2? [Leaked Image]

It’s been over a year now since Tim Schafer hinted at the fact that his three million dollar Kickstarter project was in fact the sequel to one of the best games of all time: Pokemon Snap 2. We’ve heard virtually nothing about the project… until now. A source who has asked we do not disclose his name has contacted us with insider information about the upcoming Pokemon Snap 2 including a screenshot, which is below. It’s also rumored the game will be...

Pokemon X and Pokemon Y have been Revealed for Nintendo 3DS

Today, Nintendo took the opportunity to unveil the next generation of Pokemon for Nintendo 3DS: Pokemon X and Pokemon Y.  This is the sixth generation of Pokemon, not a remake of any kind. From the trailer, the most noticeable new features are the new 3D graphics in both world exploration and battles.  Battles look a bit cartoony, but really fit the Pokemon series well.

PETA Makes a Fairly Good Pokemon Game

PETA is known for some pretty crazy antics; from tossing flower on celebrities to making strange Mario games. So when I heard the news that they had made a Pokemon game to spread Bidoof beating awareness I just brushed it off. However, curiosity got the better of me and I wanted to see what this game was about. Now I am not going to start preaching about the abuse of imaginary animals, but I will tell you that this game is quite good. Ok, so maybe good is not the best...

F’in Saved 14: TMPI

So LevelSave is supposed to have a Pokemon podcast where we get real nerdy about Pokemon. It does exist, but finding the to do a podcast strictly dedicated to Pokemon is actually really hard. Because not only do I have to host, edit, and post the podcast I also have to play Pokemon all the time. If you want to survive or have a Diglett that is not laughably weak you have to put so many hours into it. I have other games to play, like Digimon guys. Lets all have our priorities...

The 3DS Franken-Stick is Killing Mobile Games

The recently announced 3DS XL hit the community with some controversy. The expected model revision was going to be something smaller that included a built in analog stick. We got quite the opposite with a bigger system that has no built in analog stick. It will have another franken-stick attachment though, because you wanted to carry that around. Not long after the announcement people were up in arms about the missing stick. The option to buy a second stick for the original...

F’in Saved 7: Safety First

But really, where are those damn rails? I got to thinking about this a while ago while playing through Pokemon Black 2. One of the additions the developers have strived to achieve is a sense of place. Meaning that objects are not just obstacles but actually make sense. The walls are covered in posters, decapitation looks believable, and there are damn rails where there should be.

Pokemon Black 2 Playthrough Diary

In this reoccurring feature I play through Pokemon Black 2. this series will try to avoid any key spoilers in the game. However, minor spoilers such as battles and character may be spoiled. This is not intended to be a review of the game and more of a written “Let’s Play.” For this reason it is written in first person since this is my experience. Be sure to leave a comment if you feel like it is lacking in any way. I had a goal when starting into the new Pokemon...

Pokemon Tournament for Legendary Supremacy

We have all had this debate, Mew vs. Mewtwo, Groudon vs. Kyogre, Shaymin vs. Uxie. Actually I am sure that almost all of you have never had this debate with anyone, ever. But for the few, and quite possibly insane, of us that have argued over these questions Nintendo has the solution. A full on battle to the faint! An official bracket tournament has been set up to determine the greatest Legendary Pokemon from generation 1 through 4. Currently there is preliminary fighting...
