Pokémon TCG Online

The Pokémon TCG Online play (http://pokemontcg.com) is actually pretty fun.

Notes:
- The Flash based interface is slow and annoying. Especially coin flips.
- The first opponent kept using an insanely powerful Chansey card that handily won on the first battle I did all the way through, but the second time I got the jump on him and used a Seaking to kill it.
- In the future, you can build decks and play against real opponents!
- However, "real opponents" doesn't mean good chat support. Likely they'll be poor preconceived phrases, to cut down on trouble from random creeps: pedophiles, foul-mouthed 12-year-olds, you know the type.
- Furthermore, it would be nice if they had Unlimited format, but that means re-introducing the hundreds of cards before it, like the Wizards of the Coast cards (and the Japanese cards, too...hello Vending series!)
- Hopefully, all this would convince Nintendo to make a great game for the 3DS (and I might just buy it, given my 3DS thoughts)
