I'm glad Poke Bank has been delayed. It has taught me to be patient! Quite upset that Nintendo's WII U sales weren't as good as they'd hoped it'd be ;-; But, Nintendo will bounce back! They always do! :3
I honestly can't remember if I participated in the Showdown or not... I'm pretty sure I did xD Even if I didn't though, I will be entering the next competition!

I did enter the last competition but due to the delay of pokemon bank I'm not talking part in this beta competition.

If only the major political figures in the world were as apologetic as the CEO and Execs of Nintendo the world would be a better place. The delay of Poke Bank is an annoyance, but at the end of the day, it's really only an app for a game. As for the battle competition, no transferable Pokemon are allowed, but the deal breaker for me is that it's doubles :3

I don't understand how Nintendo thought the Wii U would be extremely profitable. It's really just a new controller with a screen on it. To the average consumer, that's the only difference. In fact, many people didn't even realize that there is a difference between Wii and Wii U. Many didn't even know what it was. I don't think Nintendo really thought that one through. It takes years to produce a new system. This was clearly Nintendo's solution to beat the long awaited PS4 and Xbox One (with it coming out only one year earlier than the two). The two systems were highly anticipated, so why Nintendo didn't stop to take the time to create something new and different in order to stay in the battle is beyond me.

As for Pokemon Bank, I don't mind that it was delayed. I'd rather them get the bugs out (especially with the fact that people were able to bring their hacked and cloned Pokemon into the game. Personally, I hate hacks and clones) and make a great software versus trying to get it out and fix bugs later. However, I wish they would give us more information. The only two pieces we've gotten are that it was going to be delayed and that it's now available in Asian countries. That's it. I would like to know the progress and what they're adding/fixing during the duration of the delay. That's just me though.

From when the Wii U came out i didnt think it would be popular so im not to surprised it didnt make as much money as they thought. With pokebank i don't think the worst part is the delay its just no news is bad news to me. they should at least release dates instead of just saying its out in Japan and Korea.

Pokebank was released, failed to do what it promised to do (keep out hacks), and it crashed. America, along with other countries, have been behind in Japan releases since before the franchise of Pokemon even existed, back when video games were first being INVENTED. I fail to see the big deal here. If anyone is to blame, it's the hackers who hack video games and produce fake Pokemon into the games to swindle people, not Nintendo for trying to keep hackers out. Bank glitched, and they are fixing it. I dunno what could possibly be confusing anyone about why it isn't out yet.

i don't know why Nintendo don't just release pokebank now because they have fixed all bugs stopped hacked pokes from getting through and Pokebank will no longer be connected with nintendos main servers so there should be no problems for the release :b
