oh geez, imagine Hasbro pointers then. So i guess we'll have to get new pointers....

The Hong Kong ones are.
RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion - Spring 2010 (Toys) Fall 2010 (Anime) - firelord767 - Dec. 16, 2009
So maybe the Hong Kong pointers and the Hasbro will be compatable....
I'll have to check which one i have!

The language has nothing to do with it. Different regions use different point systems.

Yes, that is why I said it.

I thought it was something like Pokemon Red and Blue...
So i guess we'll have to start our Pointing from Scratch.

Well, that could stink for bladers who live where Beyblade isn't popular...

You mean like the entire hobby, anyway?
Beyblade has always been pretty dependant on having opposition; otherwise you have to play yourself.
RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion - Spring 2010 (Toys) Fall 2010 (Anime) - Anime - Dec. 17, 2009
No I mean that even if you went to a ton of tournaments and racked up piles of points, you still would have to get some for the Hasbro beypointer, and no one really plays it in your area.

Does anyone really use the BeyPointer?
RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion - Spring 2010 (Toys) Fall 2010 (Anime) - Khel - Dec. 17, 2009
I definitely don't; super-glued the flap of mine shut since it kept flinging open.

*raises hand*
At least, i will once my friends get theirs. But now we've gotta wait becouse the system is gonna be different here.

To weight my grip, make the shooter easier to hold, and so I can feel like Ginga when I'm shredding mad dish.

I think he was referring to the actual usage of the points feature.

LOL
Yeah, I don't see the point in using it because you can't do anything with the points here, and as a truly competitive ranking system it is pretty bad.
RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion - Spring 2010 (Toys) Fall 2010 (Anime) - Kai-V - Dec. 17, 2009
I have 4550 points from entering passwords. Special.
RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion - Spring 2010 (Toys) Fall 2010 (Anime) - フェルグラント - Dec. 17, 2009
^That.
And also, I don't see how Hasbro can "make" a english WBBA to give prizes for points as people can just buy a few pointers and enter the passwords and transfer them.

How is this different from how it works in Japan?
RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion - Spring 2010 (Toys) Fall 2010 (Anime) - フェルグラント - Dec. 17, 2009
Bey Brad, do you know why Bey-Ta 1 arcades always have a free rental Pegasis 105F lying there?
In Japan, people normally won't do things like buying multiple pointers just to get hold of the prizes, at least not the children below 12 there. Their culture and lifestyle are very different from certain parts of the globe and they are very strict about manners and morals.

so you can play if you don't have a beyblade, thereby getting more kids interested in beyblade, thereby leading to more sales
(shocker, i work in marketing)

Then why did Takara-Tomy have to post a notice saying they would ban players found using hacked or unfairly accumulated BeyPointers?
The reason this isn't a big issue is that it seriously takes forever to cheat points; it's easier to just go play the arcade game, enter passwords and compete in tournaments.

I think mine actually has negative points because Spinster knows how to work the thing.

And why Battle Strikers doesn't have that kind of marketing, other than the online game...?

This is truly irrelevant to this conversation. However, we have done demos at hundreds and hundreds of stores.
