What if P.E.T.'s actually were real?

Oh, meeps. I remember the stupid endless hallway. -_-' It took me five minutes to figure out that I wasn't going anywhere. (That be original N64 version. It's cool they kept that in the DS remake)

Erm, back to the topic... I like how JH24 gave that list of issues to deal with. I've thought about it many times myself, and I thought that a world like the one in Ryuusei (from what I've seen so far) would be better than the EXE world. Simply because navis don't hold the same level of humanization as they did before and since it seems that you can delete viruses just by slotting in a Battle Card, no navis attatched. Major problems simplified right there. Just think about it....

And if there were navis in our EXE world, then I say keep them as simple as the standard navis. Yeah, yeah, boo and hiss all you want, but since navis were originally created as nothing more than humanized support programs, then what would you expect? They're made to help humans with things like program maintenance, research, and virus control. If you want to battle, then it'll have to be with your battlechip prowess and P.A.s. Yes, the rich will always win, since they're the ones who could afford all the good chips, but that happens with every game, so deal with it.

And I do not recommend custom navi options. I can just see it now: armies of Blues, Fortes, and DarkRockman look-alikes. Don't get me wrong (I'm a DarkRockman fan myself), but there are many Chisao-esque obsessors out there you have to admit, and there would be a lot of trouble there. Keeping the norman navis would add more challenge to the mix, anyway. Razz

They could only imitate looks and I'm sure Forte would slaughter anyone who tried to copy him...

Well, y'know, as far as security issues go, as was pointed out earlier, many cell phones are taking on the functions a PET has been described as having. While I think that having actual a.i. for Navis is a bit far off, I can still see the concept of Navis being more or less do-able in a reasonable time frame. Of course, as far as fighting with them goes, that would probably be a separate program altogether, something that functioned essentially like the EXE games, only you could battle other people at any time. I can't really see the in-depth portions of net travel happening any time soon, so as far as dealing with all the viruses running around, we'll have to stick with our anti-virus software. Of course, given this, that would also mean that the creation of Navi's wouldn't create some hideous security-based drawback. It would essentially be a program that is limited to the cell phone/P.E.T. itself.

I really hope navis and PETs to be invented by human beings.

If they really exist,they will bring a great convenience to us.

I will often have network battles with my schoolmates during the recess time & lunch time in school.Navis can help teacher to perform extremely high quality teachings with multimedia.

PETs can be used as cellular phones.

I will choose a navi whose body is blue in colour,such as RockmanEXE.There will be a baby navi such as Trill with him.

Thank you. I'm sure a netbattle like that would be fun. That's one of the biggest/best things about Navis The net battling.

If I had a PET/Navi I'd make him/her listen to my plotbunnies. I get so many, and it'd help to have someone to rant about it to.

Also, if I had a Navi it would also help in my job, since sometimes I zone out and don't pay attention to what I'm doing. He/She could tell me if I've scanned an item twice XD.

As for Internet surfing, I'd still prolly do it the old fashioned way, unless I couldn't. Then I'd send my Navi out to go look something up for me.

As for the kind of Navi I'd have, I'd prolly just have the standard Navi, since I'd be too afraid of hurting my Navi to attempt customization. I'd just get someone to customize his/her looks for me. Since I wouldn't be battling much, custom abilities wouldn't really be a big priority.

As for how likely AI is in the near future, I say it's very possible ^^ They have toy dogs playing soccer, after all.

I've actually thought of that with a character of mine. He works as a cameraman for the TV station in Lan's town but he likes to play video games in his spare time. And he frequently has his net navi play with him. Mostly in fighting games. In fact, his navi is designed as a famous fighting character.
So, in short, it could be both. You could play two player with your navi.

I let my imagination run wild, and now my MP3 player has become my imaginary PET. XD

Interface is a little small, so I'm still thinking through that detail.

You could always use a... PET as an imaginary PET. You know, the Takara toys? The Axess/EXE4 ones came out in the U.S. in blue, red, and black.
