So the purpose of raising the prices of Bull and Pegasis Starters to add the Beypointers was...?
I see this making them so little money, they make negative profits.

Hahahaha I was obviously joking.
I don't know WHY Takara would put this out, considering it comes with two of the most useful beyblades already.
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Kai-V - Sep. 17, 2008
For Japanese beybladers, the Beypointer can be useful, obviously. Somebody who only buys Leone 145D or Wolf D125B could still like to accumulate points and get advantages at WBBA shops.

Why would they waste the money on just a Beypointer, when they could spend a little more for a whole useful beyblade, another shooter, another winder, and a beypointer?

They are retarded if they don't...seriously. Pegasis and Bull are very useful
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - G - Sep. 17, 2008
Maybe it's for the long run. They're bound to stop making starter packs without the Bey pointer.

So is Leo, and Wolf appears to be useful, so...that point isn't very valid.
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Bey Brad - Sep. 17, 2008
And you can just get Pegasis and Bull's parts from boosters.
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Evan - Sep. 17, 2008
I guess, I guess. I'd see this pack being more useful if it came with a shooter and winder

I doubt this would ever happen, but I would totally buy it if it was released, that would be really useful. Especially since the opening for the winder slot is getting worn out and is getting bigger.

I don't see why Takara would leave that out
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Bey Brad - Sep. 17, 2008
They will be releasing seperate Launchers and Winders soon.

YES!! I will definitely need a new Shooter soon.
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Guardian Odin - Sep. 17, 2008
I think the Beypointer is awesome if you have a group of friends you regularly play with. I have my students, so...
It's pretty cool for me.
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Maz - Sep. 17, 2008
I feel like the ranking system will outdate the beypointer 10 fold
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Guardian Odin - Sep. 17, 2008
Yeah well me too, but I'm just saying I like them for little groups.
RE: BB-16 Beypointer - Bey Brad - Sep. 17, 2008
There are several problems with the Beypointer:
1. Cheating is incredibly easy. If you have two Beypointers you can just do it over and over.
2. The Beypointer doesnt take the skill of the Bladers into account. If I have 7000 points and beat someone with 1000 points, I'm going to get the same amount of points regardless.
3. You can reset the Beypointer's score at any time.
