Ok. I've just read it in comments on Sam's blog:

You know what you should do is you should add one of the legendary dogs in the hero edition of ninja-ja and I would for sure buy it becauuse right now paying $20 for just Mew doesn't really seem worth it since I doubt anyone cares about shiny pikachu, the starters, and magikarp. Just a suggestion I would buy it in a heart beat.

@anon 8:43PM - You are right, we plan to address this issue very soon."



Now, WTF is this?! I don't even know... They weren't supposed to be in the game and first Sam makes them catchable ( I agree the rate is so low that it makes them practically impossible to encounter but still) and now we'll be able to just buy them? I say a big NO to this. In a month it'll come to this that who purchased the game will get a shiny dog non-available otherwise or something just as smart.
I would like to know your opinion on this matter though... Maybe I'm just exagerating?

Thaks, Link. I hope he'll change his mind cause right now he's like betraying all his former ideas just because a bunch of kids doesn't agree with him...

Well, if he puts just ONE of the three legendaries into the hero edition he would make a nice amount of money I guess...

Not that I want him to work for us for free, he deserves to earn lots of cash with his ideas, but as you said, he would totally destroy his own concept and principles :/

I don't deny that he should be paid for what he's done with ptd but when it first came out it was supposed to be a game for EVERYONE without exclusive items/pokes that you can only obtain by buying. Sure there was shiny mew but he promised he'll give us a non- shiny version avilable for all. I thought this was fair enough. But with dogs we don't have such a possibility. If you won't buy the game it would be pretty much impossible to acquire dogs the normal way. And what about people who can't afford thos 20$ for an online game? Of coure they don't have to pay if they don't want to but it's just unfair. I guess life is always not fair... I just can't stand watching how he turns ptd into the machine to earn money. And if it goes like this I'm sure nintendo will quickly take care of this.

i think sam should make a poll for this. more experienced people won't like it as they want to do their best to become better in it, but those fat kiddies that get everything from their parents would pay billions for some legendary dogs and sam could make much more updates to the website.

Well, now you get 3 of each starter, 3 Magikarps and 3 Mews if you buy Ninja-ja. Later, when the SnD coins get introduced, you won't get any Pokemon, but a certain amount of SnD coins, let's say 60 for example. To continue the example, a legendary dog could cost 20 coins, as well as Mew. Shiny starters like 10, a shiny Drowzee 5 and so on. People won't be able to get every dog and 3 Mews and starters - they will have to choose what they want to get :)

I'm kinda comfortable with that - plus people who already bought Ninja-ja won't get SnD coins since they already had 3 Mews and so on ;)

Well, look at it this way - Sam needs money for the multiplayer server and he hasn't got an "endless wallet" himself ;) In my opinion he deserves to earn money with PTD which isn't possible because of Nintendo, so he has to do it this way and I understand him. Plus, that SnD coins are quite reasonable in my opinion, way better than the currect way of selling Mews, starters and so on ;)
And I am the best example of someone who didn't buy Ninja-ja (waiting for an iPhone version) and got even Mew and Entei ;)

lol I actually wrote that comment and when Iwrote It I only meant just maybe one dog not all three and I don't see why it's such a bad thing just look at how many people want mew obviously a lot of people don't buy the hero edition since it seems everyone wants a Mew so it's not like they would be common all of a sudden seeing how extremely rare Mew still is. So I doubt that would change if he added a legendary dog. Plus sam needs money why in the world would he be dumb enough to turn down easy money that's how you make money in these type of game microtransactions frankly he should capitalize on it regardless of who is unhappy. He is obviously working really hard making this game he should 100 percent make money off it and if little kids are unhappy about that then let them cry about it.

You guys will always complain about something it's kind of childish to be honest I don't understand why some of you would stop playing because someone has a suicune for example and you don't. It's just dumb if you want to capture it the hard way by all means do so no one is stopping you but some of us like shortcuts it's not a bad thing.

Oh really? Childlish? Then what's childlish: the desire to have PTD a great, unique online game like it was supposed to be in an ancient April times or this:

*Sam adds shines in the game. The rate is 1/10 0000* Great you say! Hurray? Well not at all...
- Saaammm the rate is too low I can't get any shinies lower it!
*Sam lowers the rate to 1/1000*

*Sam said there would be only Gen. 1*
- Saaammm that's not fair add the other generations. Why is a Kyogre in the game and we can't chatch a Groudon?????? I want other evolutions!!! I want Johto and other pokemons now !!!!!
Seriously can't you read or is it that hard to understand?
*Sam adds legendary dogs as a 1 week event*
-Saaaammmm why are my dogs gone??? I want them baaaaack!!!! Why did you take them aaawaaaayyyyy?!?!?!
*Sam adds dogs in the wild*
-Saaaammmm I can't find any dogs in the wild. Why are they so hard to get???
Saaaammmmm add the dogs as a gifts for buying Ninja-Ja!

*Sam raises the rate of shinies to 1/10000*
- Saaammm the rate is too low I can't get any shinies lower it!
*Sam changes it to 1/8000*

-Saaaaammmm I'm constantly killing my shinieeess. Do something about it!!!!
*Sam adds a shiny pop-up*
-Saaaaaammmm that's not enough!!!!!!!
*Sam makes the pop-up staying until you click it*
Great. Now I don't even have to watch the screen to play PTD!

Hypocrite much?

We will complain? No, my friend. I only complain about some people complaining and turning ptd into a game for mindless "fat kids with rich parents.." See examples above ^


And as I say I don't deny that Sam needs to earn money for his work. Read my last post.

Oh, I have an idea! Why not go like this from the start?
-Saaaammmm PTD is too hard for meeee. I'll pay you 100$ and you'll give me all the pokes and unlock every lvl!!!!

Nah, I remember Ume said something like that.

That was a joke genius.

Now about Link's post. That's not even as bad as I thought. I thought he was gonna add 3 dogs to mew and starters but the coins idea may be ok. And with explaining the daily codes idea it's pretty fair I guess ^^
