how DARE they not release a pokemon two months after launch on

>>379430312
It woulda been fucking smart to release a third game in the SM Gen on the Switch this holiday.
But Nintendo works in mysterious ways.

>>379430312
>on top of everything else they plan on releasing year one.

Swtich year one is pretty shitty compared with WiiU...

>>379430312
Because Nintendo can plan that shit out with TPC/GameFreak.

>>379430312
I mean, at the very least, slapping together a port like MHXX would've been better than no mainline. Still kinda expecting a port of that announced down the road.

Anon, even if they are ports, no one even bought a wii u. It's why playing MK8dx with my friends was their first time playing mario kart since the original wii came out. they didn't even know MK8 existed. this is literally not hard to understand.

Wii U had nothing for an entire year. 3DS took even longer, it had some nice games after a couple of years, but wasn't all that popular until pokemon came out.

Compared to that Switch 3rd party support is non-existant.

They only jump hardware with new gens and 7th gen started last year. Anyone expecting a switch game is retarded.

Gamefreak isn't ready to develop a proper console title.

Expect one in maybe 3 years when Switch userbase is 20-30 million

>>379431902
A bunch of inferior and/or late ports?

There's no reason to put a Pokemon games on a console that just released. The swtich has sold maybe about 2 million as compared the the 3DS having over 40 million. They'll make a Pokemon game for Switch when it sells more.

>>379430312
>too much games are bad
Nintendosads have truly been mindbroken by their masters. How the fuck do you reach this point.

>>379431003
>no one even bought a wii u.
But the switch's first quarter performance is only a couple hundred thousand higher, and presently there are more people who own a wiiu period. If nobody bought a wiiu and the numbers match the switch, well...

>>379431902
I said first 3 months though, since switch has only been out 3 months not an entire year yet.

why are people so fucking desperate for an upscaled 3DS game?
it would look like hot fucking trash

I don't think anyone should have expected pokemon on the switch yet. The 3ds didn't get x and y until two and a half years after launch. Plus the 3ds is a much safer choice, especially after sun and moon sold insanely well.

Their journalists are open anti-Nintendo. Which may be good for /v/ but bad if you're a fucking gaming journalist who's job is to be unbiased upon beginning a review.

switch is already selling like hotcakes, even if there was a pokemon game for switch nintendo might as well push it back to 2018 because the switch is going to be sold out this whole year even without a pokemon game

>>379430312
Pokemon is a good way to sell a shit ton of consoles but it's generally boring.

>>379432373
3DS games look good upscaled because they're decent poly just on a shit resolution screen.

Look up emulator footage of Pokemon upscaled with the black lines removed, it's pretty good.

Didn't they release both B/W and the remakes for ds while the 3ds was already a thing?
Gamefreak are not team players.

Chicken and Egg dilemma.

Now the that launch period is over, everyone has seen there are no games for Switch so no one is buying them, if no one buys them, there will be no more games.

>>379432493
yeah but it helped that 3DS could just play those games immediately.

>>379432493
Emerald was released for the gameboy advance while the DS was out and about too.

I'm mostly annoyed with Nintendo doing the "hiding from E3" thing again when this is the time they need to make an impression.

>>379432603
They're the only devs that show a substantial amount of gameplay about their games during e3. That's hardly hiding

Might it just be that Switch is underpowered and has little potential?
It's basically a handheld Ouya, the only thing going for it is the nintendo brand - but that really means nothing for third party support after WiiU.
Lets be realistic here, Switch will get a handful of ports during the first year, but nothing afterward then it'll just be another Nintendo first party/second party title console.
They'll be good games for sure, but we're headed right back into WiiU territory right now.

>>379430312
All they have been releasing is Wii U ports.
Where the fuck is the rest of their development time going exactly?
They can't even keep up with this console despite having a head start. Why are they so fucking slow? How is it that third parties still don't give a fuck?

Maybe people just want games to play, and it's clear Nintendo can't meet demand. They shouldn't make their own consoles if they can't support them properly.

Why do people not understand the concept of "saving ideas for later"?

It's obvious Gen 8 will be on the Switch and it will be a selling point for those games. If they blow their load on the Switch now with remakes that probably cost comparatively less to make, they'll lose out on the hype later.

>>379432708
GoD and Colo did poorly, so they don't want to dev another game.

>>379432708
theyve been working on the shuffle games, game freak doesnt let them out of mobile hell, its sad.
they made a game better than the mainline games so i guess theyre not allowed to come back

>>379430312
I didn't even want a new mainline game. If they had done this "Hey guess what? This fucking UltraSuMo shit is on the Switch too!" then I would have been right as rain. Nope we get a port of Pokken tournie.

I do believe that the Switch's design (mobile to home console) is the future, and I want all consoles from all manufacturers to have this design feature.

But I also am also ready for something other than Binding of Isaac and Breath of the Wild. I've got Snipperclips to play when I drive over and see my brother, but that's not exactly a long game and we'll get through it soon anyway regardless of how normie he is.

What else is there? Not rhetorical, any hidden gems? I've looked

We must have literally been getting Zelda and nothing else for 365 days at one point if this is the "beefed up" launch window.

If E3 doesn't literally dazzle me from start to finish the Switch and Kimishima ran Nintendo is pretty much on my shitlist for good.

This this this, E3 is my deciding point. I have a Switch to buy, and full wallet of extra money, and if not, I'm just going to use it on a few games.

E3 is their last chance for me for them to get past the port phase of old ass games. That or SMT being exclusive, but I still doubt it will be.

>>379430636
Switch has a Zelda year 1.

It's bad enough they're re-releasing a game from last year with maybe like one megabyte of different content.

>>379433520
It was a Wii U port similar to TP from the GC

>>379430312
Well, I for one took rumours (from supposed reputable sources) that a Switch port was coming and chose to miss out on S/M

>>379433594
It's still a Zelda game. The Wii U just had soulless Mario games.

>>379432708
The Denpa Men 4 just released recently

>>379433520
WiiU had Wind Waker HD year 1....

Why don't they just release new 3ds games with Switch versions for $40 as well?

Literally no negatives to doing this. Even if you didn't think they'd sell a ton just put them on the eshop. There's no way I'm playing FE echoes on the portable hand cramping machine when the Switch exists.

Completely fucking retarded gaming "journalism" has become, as well as everyone who was mad about no mainline Pokemon game being announced for the Switch

Switch has a userbase of 3 million, compared to the 50 million of the 3DS, and Switch units are hard enough to get as is, not including the fucking scalpers. If anyone actually genuinely expected a mainline Pokemon game to be on the Switch, even if it was just a port of Stars/UltraSun/UltraMoon, they are completely, and utterly retarded and clearly can't into business or logical gaming decisions. Not only is it too early but there are not enough people who even own the system to justify such a big investment.

>>379433779
They don't want anything to compete with Mario Odyssey.

>>379433890
>Console has no games
>It's retarded to expect games on the console
what?

Why would anyone buy a switch if there is no games?

Is this REALLY a surprise? No Pokemon game came out in the same year as the console itself.

>>379433968

It has to be something braindead retarded like that because the decision makes 0 sense.

Not like all switch games releasing are $60, there are plenty of games already with lowered price points.

Didn't Masuda or whatever his name was say that he would never want a mainline Pokémon game on a home console

>inb4 hurrr it is a handheld

>>379433982
>why didn't they flood the market with killer apps that would cannibalize each other and not sell any additional devices since they're still selling out just about everywhere
Really makes me think.

>>379431902
Do you see a mainline Pokemon game there?

OP is right.

>>379434138
Being able to play it in handheld mode is a major feature. Only a retard would truly believe that it won't take over the 3DS entirely in a couple of years.

>>379433157
>>379432915
Colosseum sold 2.54 million units in its lifetime, which is pretty great, especially for the time it was released. It even beat Paper Mario TTYD. It is the 9th best selling game on the GameCube, and only lost to major titles like Sunshine, Sonic Adventure 2, Smash Bros, Zelda, Metroid, etc.

Pretty C O N G E S T E D, yes.

>>379430312
All this butthurt over the Pokemon games not being on the Switch is delicious. Masuda has always said that the main Pokemon games would never be on console from the start. People sitting there complaining that the game should be on consoles are stupid. The point of these games is portability and being able to battle and trade literally anywhere like actually having Pokemon with you. Putting it on consoles is counter intuitive. I get that the Switch is portable but that doesn't connect to the already established handheld versions of the game so it makes no sense to put it on Switch when not everyone even has one. Let's face it Nintendo has permeated the handheld market like no one else in the industry has been able to do.

>>379433982
>Console has no games
>Expecting a killer app like Pokemon let alone a mainline Pokemon game being announced 3 months into the consoles run
>not being retarded

You all want the same thing to happen to the Switch like with the Wii U. Flood the first year with killer apps and then have nothing to show for the next years.

The Switch literally has
>Super Mario Odyssey
>Breath of The Wild
>Arms
>Splatoon 2
>Pokken
>Sonic Forces
>Sonic Mania
>Fire Emblem Warriors
>Xenoblade Chronicles 2
>Dragon Quest XI
>Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
>Mario Kart 8

All in the first fucking year. It doesn't need anything else to be announced for this year. The first year already has everything it needs. Nintendo focusing their E3 on games they already announced for this year is absolutely retarded and basically pulling a repeat of the Wii U.

>>379435036
>1 game per month is congested

I know alot of you are upset about no Pkemon RPG on the Switch but If you were in the shoes the CEO of The Pokemon Company, what would you do:

>A. Release a HD port of a Pokemon game on a brand new released console with a install base of maybe 4 million, which is having supply issues that is likely to last for the rest of the year?

Or

B. Re-release the game on a handheld with an install base of 65 million and counting, can be easily be obtained at stores and has a new revision coming out soon?

I love how everyone blames Nintendo for this when it's GameFreak that owns and develops Pokemon.
Besides, there has NEVER been a new mainline Pokemon game so early on in a console's lifespan. Why would anyone think any different, especially when a new mainline duo JUST released about a year prior?

>>379437619

It's not like they can just materialize and ship them out of thin air. They have to be made, and even in a fully automated factory, that shit takes time.

>how DARE they not release a pokemon two months after launch on top of everything else they plan on releasing year one.

Are you surprised? Is ANYONE surprised at this point? Really? Because you guys seem to be blind, dumb and very forgetful.

Nintendo has been doing shit like this for AGES, ever since the launch of the SNES and the lack of a proper SMW sequel.

They fucked Starfox
They fucked Metroid
They fucked Pokemon

Get it into your heads already: Nintendo = Capcom on how they take care of their IPs.

>>379439407
NINTENDO OWNS GAMFREAK WHY CAN YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT.

Also even if they didn't, if Nintendo said "Hey gamefreak, make a Pokemon game on Switch" they'd start doing it in a second.

>>379430312
>on top of everything else they plan on releasing year one.
Yeah, like all those Wii U games and...

>>379439637
? Gamefreak has been consistently releasing pokemon games since the 90s. Multiple spin offs and whatnot I fail to see how the fucked Pokemon

>>379439407
>second party companies having absolutely any creative freedom.
Dohohoho, what universe do you come from anon? It certainly isn't this one, publishers get the last word 100% of the time.

>>379439726
No because Masuda already had that talk with Miyamoto and basically told him no. >>379439804
might as well quote you too

>>379439862
not for the Switch but previous consoles. That's why consoles get all the spinoffs

>>379439774
And now that there's a new platform in desperate need of new games, they drop the ball.

Totally a success, guys.

>>379439956
>Gamefreak is dead because they didn't release a Pokemon game in the first year on a console
shut the fuck up you idiot. Oh but wait they are going to. Pokken :^)

>>379430312
Pokemon is gay. Do I need to go on?

>>379440079
I didn't say they were dead, you mongoloid, I just mentioned how this is the first tep to fuck the Switch in the ass, like with the WiiU.

>>379440079
Not the Anon you're answering to, but who the fuck are you quoting, you paranoid fuck? Nobody said that GF was dead just because they took a shitty decision, they'd be dead since long ago otherwise.

>majority of switch games are ports

>>379440205
You sure are a special case. No one gives a fuck about Nintendo consoles since that abortion that was the Wii anyway. It had a few good games but it also fucked up a lot of themand it has nowhere near the success that Nintendo handhelds do. It's not Gamefreak's responsibility to save the Switch that's on Nintendo and it's no one's fault but their own for fucking it up. Don't put this on Gamefreak.

ITT: People are mad cause the switch did not get yet another port.
Top XD.

>>379440358
Did you even read the whole reply chain idiot?

>>379432254
People don't have Switches because they literally can't buy them at the moment outside of overpriced bundles from places like Gamestop.

>>379440475
This. You guys want so badly for Nintendo to keep shoveling old dried up shit into your mouth. Why not instead of asking them for ports you ask them for actually new fucking games instead of Mario Kart for the second time?

>>379440483
Yes, I did. Nobody except for (You) said such a stupid thing.

>>379440530
Wrong. I live in a 1.8 million city in one of the worlds richest countries and no one gives a shit about the Switch here. Didn't even see one ad and they are aviable everywhere

Were people ACTUALLY LEGITIMATELY expecting the next Pokémon game to be on Switch? GF have not once switched consoles mid generation and anyone who expected them to this time are absolute retards. Next year's game will definitely be on Switch since it'll be a new Gen but there was literally a zero percent chance USUM were going to be on Switch.

>>379439726
>NINTENDO OWNS GAMFREAK WHY CAN YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT.
But they don't. Hell, within the last 1-2 years Gamefreak has made two games that never even released on Nintendo hardware. (Tembo and Giga Wrecker). Stop spreading misinformation.
>Everyone saying not releasing Pokemon on the Switch is a blunder
>People who were even expecting this to happen
Yeah lets launch a game that heavily relies on reused assets, increase the dev time by ~3-6 months (probably), miss the HOLIDAY 2017 WINDOW, all to release it on a platform with a fraction of the install base. This is /v/ logic at its finest. The profit is on 3DS, Pokemon will stay there until it isn't.

>>379440791
>They fucked Pokemon
>Get it into your heads already: Nintendo = Capcom on how they take care of their IPs.
>Totally a success, guys.
He's saying Nintendo fucked Gamefreak. You're actually stupid
>(you)
People look like such stupid idiots when they do this that I instantly discard their opinions.

>>379430636
>Switch
>released with 2 games, one of which was heavily praised and gained many 10/10 scores

>Wii U
>released a the shoddiest ports imaginable and a NSMB game

>>379440986
You think GF didn't know about the switch until everyone else did? If they wanted to make USUM for the Switch they would've, there are no downsides to it. The Switch will face the same destiny as the Wii (U) in regards to Pokemon, accept it toddler

>>379441096
And yet the Switch sales are as shit as the Wii U. The Wii U sales I can understand because normies didn't even know it was a new console but there's no excuse for the Switch if it got a 10/10 game like you say

>delay Switch to March "to have games ready"
>still have 3 games at launch
>nothing for the entire year until Fall

Holy fuck, imagine if this piece of shit launched in November as planned.

>>379441245
>10/10 game
Its only a 10 for virgin autists, like us people posting in this thread. Can you imagine Stacy and Emma playing BOTW on the bus? The Wii only sold well because it was somewhat social and had perfect games for "parties", you even can see Nintendo trying to recreate that with the Switch, but the failed miserably

>>379441058
He literally said that they took bad decisions and are still taking them, the (wrong) fact that Nintendo or GF were dead was your own stupid statement.

>>379441375
>>still have 3 games at launch
What 3? BOTW is the only remarkable launch game and that isn't even an exclusive

Jesus, I really must be old then if you fucks don't remember the Black2/White2 bullshit.

Do you know how retarded it is to give Pokemon Sun and Moon a FUCKING REMASTER ON A GENERATION OLD CONSOLE?

I may have bias as I traded in my 3DSes but as a Switch owner I feel fucking cheated that Nintendo would jew the Pokemon fans out like this

>>379441529
And nobody bought a Wii U

>>379441467
You're clearly not from here. You have to read between the lines. Save yourself while you still can and gtfo

>>379441637
>REMASTER
Its not a remaster, nothing got improved it just 5% more content

>>379441612
"What's the point in buying X if Y ended being better"?

I love console war threads.

>"X has no games!"
>list of current and upcoming games
>"THOSE DON"T FUCKING COOOOOUUUUNT"

>>379441637
This is the average Switch owner. Never played pokemon enough to know that the second versions aren't remastered but still wants it on the Switch

>>379441453
He's the one that said it was 10/10 I was just presenting his own argument against him

>>379441637
It's not a remasterization but a revamp though, just like Yellow, Crystal, Emerald and Platinum.

Come to think of it, a lot of people said it wouldn't happen because Platinum was the last one and it was released like 11 years ago or something.. heh.

>>379441806
But they don't. That's like saying PC is 10000x better than a PS4 just because it has 10000 times more games (and this is not an overestimate).

>>379442021
It's true they just want to keep eating old shit

>>379442021
Because a S/M Port would easily have more advantages than "MUH PORTABILITY" which they marketed Pokken DX with, maybe?

>>379442002
I heard that it was going to be like black 2 and white 2. Did I hear wrong?

>>379442021
One is a game that no one cares about, while the other is a game that runs at 15fps on the system it's currently on.

>>379442319
And neither of those were remasters. They're completely different games that took place 2 years after the events of the first ones

>>379442640
I know. And I heard that ultra sun and ultra moon were going to be like that. Did I hear wrong?

>>379442570
No one cares about pokemon and Pokken runs at 15 fps? Cause that would mean they didn't care about both games. You know I heard some people say Pokken was their first Tekken game? That's a weird thought

>>379442720
I'm not exactly sure. The trailer says alternate story. It doesn't mention anything about timeline

>>379433292
>something other than Binding of Isaac
but that game isn't on the switch
unless that fuckstick edmund decided to release it in america only again on a Nintendo console

I just hope it's more content than what could have been done with a DLC update.

>>379430312
Why do dumb hipsters think that they are going to get a pokemon game on a home console? Did they fall for Nintendo's marketing memes that hard?

>>379442570
Pokken sold 1.3m copies, has an active online playerbase for year old fighting games in general, let alone ones on a console as dead as the wiiU, and the competitive community nearly beat out marvel for an Evo spot.

Pokken's hype and steam ran out super fast, but people did care about it. It could benefit greatly from a switch port because now that steam can continue and get a second chance now hat it's not held back by a dead console

>>379433195
>Release year 2020
Game Freak are morons who release a new pokemon game every year with little to no time to polish, see you in 2018.

>putting a handheld series on a home console
ok

>>379442951
Dude binding of isaac got a full box release this time with stickers and an instruction manual and everything, and I saw retweets on his twitter of people talking about buying it in Europe so I don't know what to tell you, it was supposed to be a Launch Title for fuck's sake I don't know how you never heard about this.

>>379430479
>It woulda been fucking smart to release a third game in the SM Gen on the Switch this holiday.
No it wouldn't.

Gamefreak would make significantly more money doing what they are doing now.

Switchfags are worse than bronies.

Your console is shit, deal with it.

Looks like they didn't fucking release it in Australia.
Just checked and its not on the Australian switch eshop at all.
Thats it, I am adding Edmund onto my list of shit devs to never buy a game from and he can stay there along with Chucklefish, the no mans sky devs and Gearbox

They have never released a mainline game to consoles,why do people think they will do this time?

I just wanted an announcement that theyre working on a switch pokemon

>>379430312
Gotta release it once sales start to stagnate

>>379430312
This system has nothing but ports. Please tell me how that makes it not a piece of shit - every other system of ports only is a piece of shit.

>>379431003
Keep saying that shit. MK8 was one of the better selling console MK game.It obviously got beaten by the Wii since the Wii was a miracle, but it sold over 8 million copies which is more than what PS4 exclusives sell.

Nintendo is going to keep porting Wii U games and you fans are going to keep buying the same game for the 2nd, 3rd, or even 4th time. It sucks as a Wii U/Switch owner having to wait a couple of more years for proper sequels.

>>379430312
what an entitled faggot

>>379447073
Because it's a title to an article, dumbass.

Everyone knows all the switch needs is a good animal crossing game.

>>379447313

Nintendo didn't even port Gold and Silver to the Switch. And retards expect a mainline game on it.

>>379442319
Sounds like it. US/M were advertised as an alternative story of S/M, that goes under the Revamps List seeing as R/S got that same treatment under the name of "Pokémon Emerald", pretty much.

And we don't even know whats going to be announced next week. You'd have to be delusional to think the Wii U had anywhere near the quality of the Switch in the first year regardless of how many half assed ports 3rd parties sent out to die on launch day.

>>379445450
They've never had a handheld that was also a console.
