Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl aren't out for another week, but they're already getting patched.

Nintendo announced this morning that a fairly massive, 3 GB "1.1" patch for the pair of Sinnoh remakes that will add some additional features, such as local and online communication features in areas like the Grand Underground, Super Contest Show and Union Room, but that wasn't what caught social media's eye.

The patch includes the games' post-game content and stunningly, their opening and ending cutscenes.

Day-one patches are relatively commonplace in the video game industry, but the addition of such vital components of the game via a patch raised concerns among Pokémon fans who have had their trust shaken by the release state of some recent Pokémon games. The lack of an opening cutscene had also raised concern among players who were able to obtain leaks of the game.

BDSP doesn't have an intro/opening movie.

I repeat…. BDSP DOESN'T HAVE AN OPENING.

IT'S JUST A BLACK SCREEN.

I can't anymore….

It's a shame that Day 1 patches have become such a norm in the industry.

Like I get it, especially in the current global crisis, but my gosh…the fact that the game lacked a title screen animation before the patch, even though it's Day 1, is pretty bad.

Oof. They had announced that the game would get a Day 1 patch but I didn't expect the game to be missing this much.
Cutscenes, animations, most of the multiplayer features, and the post-game are missing. This is quite alarming. Sad to see Pokémon going down that route. https://t.co/tWnVWscoTi

I hope this Day 1 patch is wake up call to your Pokémon fans. It shows that this franchise rushes out games is bad for the series. The fact that bdsp literally had no title screen opening, online functions and bunch of postgame content is bad

There's still a week until Pokémon BDSP releases, but the fact that so much essential content needed to be patched in leaves one wondering what other problems the games may have.
