Video Game references for An Energy Drink?
This is a very awesomely done traditional/sprite animation done by a team of awesome artists. The art was done by PersonaSama A.K.A.

Deep, parts of the game industry are still dying thoughts
Mario Kart DS still costs $35 and is seemingly locked into gaming’s top 10 for-ev-er. Grand Theft Auto IV, all $100 million of it, is bargain bin fare at about $30. Meanwhile, developers continue to close at record pace. And no, it’s not the economy, stupid. Good for Nintendo, but troubling for gaming. Past deep thoughts, of a more colorful nature, here. Inspiration here. If you’...

This was their response: “At this point, we’re not thinking of going in that direction. Trading is a core concept of Pokémon. So when you’re trading, you meet with a friend and decide which one you want and which one they want. I would like to emphasize re...
