He wanted the games to end at Gold and Silver.
Red was supposed to be the final battle.
He knew you can't keep rehashing the same games over and over again.
Why didn't they listen?
>>28785656
Thank God.
Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova and Kalos are all better than Kanto and Johto
>>28785656
I don't blame him
Masuda is a greedy kike who will keep churning out these games until the end of humanity
>>28785656
>He knew you can't keep rehashing the same games over and over again.
Well he was wrong, it works like a charm.
we really would have missed out on a lot if they stopped it there
no HGSS, no Platinum, no BW, no B2W2
you would basically have to be a GOnormie to think that would have been good
>>28785656
He wanted them to end storywise. He also thought it wouldn't be popular post gen 2.
>>28785656
people like you are retarded. why would you want less of something you enjoy? the games are still fun because it's pokemon.
>>28785723
remakes are fine. he worked on frlg
If it ain't broke don't fix it. Been working for mario all these years.
>>28785656
Because revolving a Game series in same areas is boring, killing a franchise that wasn't the deepest story wise right after the second game is dumb, and expanding the universe of the games is what made the games live today.

>Gen 1 was building blocks scattered on the floor, good ideas, no clear Direction.
>Gen 2 was building blocks that were stacked in a linear tower, a step in the right direction and an improvement.
>Gen 3 was building blocks done in the shape of a Pyramid, simple, but interesting.
>Etc and on so.
He was right. The first games outside his initial idea for pokemon was gen 3. We all know how annoying hoennfaggots are today.
If only we had listened.
>>28785860
>why would you want less of something you enjoy?
>implying i enjoy the new games
The world would be a better place without XY and ORAS being a thing and you know it
>>28785972
Never cared for Gen 3, but it was still an improvement from Gen 1, and the only reson people say it's a downgrade from Gen 2 was the lack of a second Region to explore, even though Kanto in Gen 2 was a Husk of it's former self.
>>28785656
>He wanted the games to end at Gold and Silver.
This is a common misconception. It was Tsunekazu Ishihara's intent for his own association with the series to end at Gold/Silver.
>>28785972
if you don't enjoy them anymore then why are you on a board for pokemon? i'm genuinely curious. why not move on already?
>>28786297
>still play the old games
>still play pokemon GO
>still play TCG to this day
Why should i leave? because i don't like your favourite generation?
>>28786316
because you make shitpost threads cause you can't move on from the old games, it'd make the board a better place. pokemon is still popular af, and the games are still fun because it's pokemon w/ just updated graphics and features. i don't get how you can be a fan of the old games and not enjoy the new ones.
>>28785656
>Why didn't they listen to Him?
Because of Money.
They knew people would continue to buy Pokémon games.
>>28785679
Fpbp
>>28785656
Where is this guy hiding right now?
>>28786918
He did an interview for some other game rather recently.
>>28785656
Final Fantasy (the original) was supposed to be the only one, but I don't think anyone would say that was their favorite. So fuck off.
>>28786316
>playing Go
>>28786953
Saaauce please!
Fuck Masuda. He really doesn't "get" pokemon.
>>28786196
nope
he hasn't developed any of the games or involved himself other than frlg being the latest
he wanted gold and silver to be the last
But OP then we wouldn't be able to shitpost like we are now.
>>28786316
Kill yourself genwunner
Imagine if all we had were RBY and GS, Pokémon would have been this cult title all the normies forgot about; all those Pokémon threads on /vr/ talking about how everyone wants more games and shit.
>>28787307
It would be glorious.
>no more hoenn
>no gen 4 abysmal crossevos
>no megaevolutions
>no chicken-chan faggotry
>only true bros discussing best mon combinations from kanto/johto
But there is no god, apparently
>28787386
terrible bait
no free (You)
>>28787307
Imagine the mods and hacks of a tight but ferwent genwunfanbase.
>Ending the series before the games actually got good
>>28787307
But then we'd be stuck with two shitty old games
>>28785656
johto was a disgrace. thank god it didn't end there
>>28788522
Shut your mouth homo.
>>28787386
>No physical/special split
Anon, no matter how much you hate gen 4, thats still pretty fucking retarded
>>28786918
He's the CEO of Gamefreak. He's just a literal autist so he doesn't do press statements or the like.
>>28788569
it was a good addition but the games were still enjoyable before it
i bet you also think the older games are unplayable oh my god because they don't have fairy type, double battles, amie or the new exp share
>>28788673
>Being this salty
All I said was its fucking stupid forgetting something that is vital to the games. (You).
>>28788615
Men with autism have better creative skills, you dumb jock faggot.
Gen 1 to gen 2 are the end of the orginal series, gen 3 can't even connect to those previous games and introduced the remake concept.
>>28788673
>i bet you...
Yeah, putting words in his mouth, classic.
>the new exp. share
Anon...
>>28788832
>image name
if you want to bait, do it properly
also read your own image, i'm putting my faith on you and trusting you can read
>>28788880
So you have nothing to say then?
Cool.
>>28788906
I do, but i'll save it for someone who wants to argue instead of a memeing faggot that knows he posted shit but just want a reply to post "LOL TOLD U SO".
>>28785656
Because it became a brand that needed to exhaust itself before it could die.
>>28788832
>but reduces the amount received by all pokemon
I'm not that anon and don't give a shit either way but the old exp share is different from the new one and you know it, the former splitting 100% six ways and the latter giving up to 350% if you have a full party
hi veepee
>>28789040
herro
>>28787386
>no physical/special split
>the most uninteresting regions
>no abilities
>no double/triple/rotation battles
>single-use tms
Apparently there is a God, and He is merciful.
>>28789027
Oh, my bad then, i didn't know the gen 6 Exp. share was THAT strong.
>>28789097
>waah i'm too stupid to take responsability and use TMs with any sort of thought only one time
I agree with almost everything but infinite TMs is stupid crap for casuals. Think about who's getting the powerful move, give the less interesting one to backups, that was part of the fun. But i guess new generations hate playing games, might as well just do a single TM that teaches the best move to your mon regardless, now that's cool beans.
>>28789097
>liking rotation battles
>>28786571
This. Capitalism, folks. If it'll print money, it'll be made. The only thing that matters in this world is money, that's the secret to life on this planet.
>>28789173
>not liking rotation battles
>>28789137
You can't be serious
>>28789137
>implying that being forced to save all your TMs until the postgame so you can use it on a multiplayer team Pokémon instead of wasting it during the main game is casual
>>28789332
>everyone is a smogonfag waiting till post game to use their moves for pointless online battles
>>28789350
>Anyone who wants to have an online team with a decent moveset is a smogonfag
>>28789386
>you can only have decent movesets by abusing infinite TMs
>no one had decent movesets ever before the TM change a few games ago
>>28789420
Because everyone either hacked TMs or hacked their pokemon you retard.
>>28789350
>online battles
>pointless
>>28789420
>You can only have decent movesets by abusing TMs
Its true though
>>28785684
You can stop buying them you know
>>28790122
i did.
>>28788757
Shut up, Chris chan
>>28785656
>He wanted the games to end at Gold and Silver.
Thank god they didn't listen to him, Gold and Silver were terrible.

Tajiri-sama is a goldmine of reaction images.
>>28785972You're right.And Tajiri was right as well.
>>28790142
You can also stick to GO threads instead of shoving your shitty genwunner opinions down our throats.
Or just leave /vp/ in general.
>>28790637
why are you so mad kiddo? i followed pokemon before you were even born. i have all the right to remain here and trust me, i will.
>>28786316
>Playing TCG
But anon, you're still technically playing the new games, through the cards of new generation Pokemon
>>28790672
Not if he omits new cards.
Why are you so assblasted about Gen 1 and 2?
>>28790661
>Before you were even born
That's cute, little man is using the age argument. I too have been following the games since it's beginning, son. Don't assume anyone who enjoys the new games and can't tolerated the sams asinine nostalgia driven negativity you have for them as "underage".
>>28790708
Can you play TCG by just sticking to old Pokemon? Why miss out on the other 600 Pokemon.
Genwunners are fucking retarded. Why does it bother you that something exists? You know you can ignore them right? Go ahead and masturbate to Mr.Mime and Blue's RB Champion Team while we play superior games.
>>28790823
Yes.
Most people are minimalists, certainly normies are desu from which I observed.
One neat thing about the old games, you can catch them all. I doubt most kids catch them all without cheating. At least for national dexs.
>>28790122
I'm pirating both games
>>28785704
People buy CoD and Madden even though it's rehashed shit every year.
Pokemon is the ultimate rehash of JRPGs
