Will Sun or Moon sell better, and why?

About even, I think. Kids like edgy shit, but they also like lions. It'll be a good race.

>Bara Kukui
>Grid movement removed
>Rotom Pokedex
>Comfy Hawaiian islands

They're already 10/10 desu
>>
>>26644475
I think sun will sell more just on the virtue of being the red version.

Male kids might think Moon is too girly.
>>
>>26644475
I usually base my choice on the exclusive pokemon/what you can catch early-ish.

I think a decent chunk of people do this, so whichever has the more popular pokemon available early will probably sell better.
>>
Doesn't the "first" version always sell better?
>>
>>26644653
Sadly these should have come out 3 years ago.
>>
>>26644660
I always buy the "Blue" versions, plus Lunala is based. So Im definitely going with Moon
>>
Can anyone help me get e keldeo please I really need one willing to trade for the best I can

>>26644695
Honestly please

This seems like the proper place to ask... I'm not a graphics whore, but is there any improvement in battles, judging from the clips they've shown?
I seriously can't tell.
>>
>>26644695
It's for my little girl she wants one
>>
>>26644475
The first game of a pair usually sells more, but I've been seeing tons of Lunala support, so I'm not sure this time.
>>
>>26644475
Sun. Solgaleo is just a cooler Legendary in terms of design.
>>
>>26644676
XY were their first 3DS games. They were probably saving all that shit for this year. Gen 6 was just them testing the waters. Hell, I've already forgot about them
>>
>>26644475
not sure
I like the moon legendary, but we have to wait and see what monster and mega evolutions are in sun or moon
>>
>>26644699
Doesn't look like it, but it's still early.

Besides the graphic interface and presumably new backgrounds, no. There was no reason to expect anything more than that. It's not like other gens where they had to make new sprites. Actually it would have been like BW where they actually didn't make many new sprites and the difference would be BW had the moving sprites gimmick and there is no visual gimmick to differentiate them. There may be some new or improved animations.

I'm sure Moon will once again be the best version; the bluer version is always better than the red one:
- JP Blue because it has better graphics
- US Blue because Charizard is an overrated hack
- Silver because Lugia is based and Ho-Oh is an Edgezard clone
- Sapphire because Groudon is like 64x weak to Kyogre, what a joke
- Diamond because would you rather control space or control fucking TIME allowing you to rewind and master space at will?
- Black because black city
- X because only an edgelord fedora would pick the Death Pokemon and muh plague doctor
And now Solgaleo, the SUN legend is a Metagross clone literally weak to fire, what a JOKE.

Wasted dubs.

You're not making a great argument here, at least Charizard is a starter, Lugia is a Xatu clone.
>>
>>26644755
I'll be pissed if it's another battle Maison
>>
>>26644826
>Black because black city
What makes Black the bluer version?
>>
>>26644755
>battle frontier in the first game in a generation
Kek overload
>>
>>26645042
Black is just a really really dark blue, true black is impossible to create currently.
>>
Targetcuck here, I actually checked the preorder counts for my district yesterday. Moon is outselling Sun in every store except I think one. But this is in no way definitive proof due to each store only getting 10 preorder cards for each game, plus the fact that Target isn't really the first place you go to when you want to preorder something.
>>
>>26644475
Moon won on a poll here on /vp/.

Also no one wants Metagross 2.0
>>
>>26644778
i'll give you a Keldeo for ash's pikachu, if it is untouched.
>>
>Wanting the edgy bat instead of the majestic lion

Wew lads
>>
Do we know which version of past games sole more?
>>
>>26644511
>kids like
By now the main audience for Pokemon games is grown-ups.
>>
>>26644475
Sun. Red version almost always sells better
>>
>>26644660
This. Red outsold Blue.
Gold > Silver.
Ruby > Sapphire.
Diamond > Pearl.
Black > White.
X > Y.
Sun > Moon.
>>
>>26645077
You've got it backwards my friend. White version is the "Blue" game. Zekrom's blue electricity and tail are clear indications of this
>>
>>26644804
>implying I said that
You've been drinking too much.

Do people actually think that just because they don't have kids and aren't one anymore kids stopped existing?

I was gonna make a point about how the games are probably more popular then they've ever been, but it turned out gen VI sold a little more than a third of the copies that gen I did worldwide. Is pokemon dying?
>>
>>26645627

better comparison is gen VI to gens III-V. gens I & II were out at the height of the fad period. it leveled off more around gen III.

i don't know specific numbers, but i know it's really not dying. the games still sell millions of units.
>>
Ah no dude, Silver sold like a bunch more than Gold because it doesn't have a giant turkey on it's front cover
>>
>>26645411
This.

Enjoying that Z version, faggot?

Top billing is best billing.
Sun will sell more.
>>
>>26645627
You realise most of the money comes for the merch right? The games don't even account for 5% of the profit.
>>
>>26644475
I feel like the first in the name always sells best
RED blue yellow
GOLD silver crystal
RUBY sapphire emerald
FIRE RED leaf green
DIAMOND pearl platinum
HEART GOLD soul silver
BLACK white
BLACK 2 white 2
X y
SUN moon
