Pokemon and its weirdness 2

PaTROLLING the waters of Pokemon Emerald, I am challenged to a girl who says: "I'm wearing a bathing suit. Where do I keep the Pokeballs? Tee-hee, Woman's secret"


uh...


Has anyone noticed a few weird things about to supposedly kid-friendly game? Like, how this game teaches you about dating a girl. Pokemon rewards you with a girl's own phone number if you beat up her pet and take her money. Hardly suitable life lessons. 
Pokemon also teaches us that catching animals and locking them in PC's for the rest of their life is acceptable, when it is not so by any standards in a humane video game. BTW, how does storing an animal in a PC actually work? Twelve bucks to anyone who tells me.
In Gold, they introduced the day and night system. This was meant to make the world feel real and like your adventure was progressing a long time and not just over the course of one never ending day. But, most of these people in the world remain in the same place. Doesn't anyone sleep? Like, I'm pretty sure it's necessary for human survival...right?


Professor Oak: "Don't go into the grass, it's too dangerous!" However, Oak doesn't protest when you go and take on a criminal organisation like Team Rocket. These guys are anything but clever. They are supposed to be mean, lean fighting machines who can best any foe through their sheer power...using Rattata and Zubat. And speaking of Zubats (attacked by Zubat in cave) there sure are (attacked by Zubat in cave) a lot of them. It's (attacked by Zubat in cave) like they're everywhere. You can't (attacked by Zubat in cave) take (attacked by Zubat in cave) a (attacked by Zubat in cave) single (attacked by Zubat in cave) STEP WITHOUT MEETING ONE. (attacked by Zubat in cave)


When you really think about it, those Pokemon are darn cute. Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Mew, even Magby. But do you ever stop to think; of the only animals in the world are Pokemon...what are you really eating for dinner?



Moar Wii U stuff

The original controller has been redesigned and called the Wii U Gamepad, while adding in another controller type called Wii U Pro.
The Wii U will also have a social networking style thing called a Miiverse. Players can talk, ask for hints and more without exiting their play session.
The Wii U Gamepad can act as a TV remote and can control an internet browser system built into the Wii U.
The Wii U is said to be at least 50% more powerful than current generation consoles.
That's all until E3 (tomorrow) folks.
