How would you rank the current shitstorm, how long do you think it will last?
Who cares.
Hopefully Sun and Moon have dreadful sales so they go back to making Pokemon that remotely resemble animals.
X/Y sold 14 million.
OR/AS sold 11 million.
Let's hope SuMO sells less than 10 million.
I give it all week.

le "there were never non-animal based pokemon in gen 1"
>>29251309
With the datamine shitstorm plus 3DS hacking AND being at the end of a handheld lifecycle you can bet your ass it will sell less, on top of the people burned by Gen
Inb4 some GF dicksucker comes in to tell me something like itll sell a shitton, yeah no shit these shitty games sell a lot but watch how it does in comparison
>>29251902
I think it'll sell well. Late gen games usually sell require well actually, and PokemonGO has renewed public interest in the franchise to a level not seen in over a decade.

I just tuned in, what's the current shitstorm?
>>29251309
remake always sells less than new games
>>29251145
I give it about 5 days, as that's when the next piece of info should drop and shitposters will find something new to cling too.
>>29252072
73/81/99 new pokemon (Traditional pokemon/+UB/+Alolan respectively)
People who have quantity as a requirement are upset
>>29251987
lmao if you think the normies who played Pokemon Go on their phone for free are ponying up $300 to buy a new 3DS and Sun/Moon you are the biggest fucking retard on this board
>>29252264
just short of a hundred, but enough variations that it likely will be a non-issue.
Somewhere in between Johto and Hoenn in terms of quantity of new mon designs
>>29251309
>Generation that literally has my mom's toucan in it
>needs to look more like animals
That aside I don't think it'll dip below 10 million, it's not going to shatter any sales records or anything, but it'll probably do okay.
>>29252292
you'd be surprised, a couple of my coworkers are already asking me recs on other 3ds games other than pokemon to try out.
>>29251309
>Pokemon GO happened this year
>As a result, rekindled the Pokemon fire in may people who had abandoned it, and ignited a fire in people who've never played Pokemon before
It'll sell more than X and Y.
>>29252292
3ds sales and Pokemon sales went up when GO came out you know
>>29252488
That hype has fizzled by this point though.
I hope this game flops. Not because its because its necessarily all bad but because gamefreak need to learn to make polished fucking games that dont LAG.
>>29252577
Cry more. It'll sell 15 million at LEAST.
>>29252292
Pretty much this. Any GO player I talked with, whenever I mentioned the newer generations and the 3DS, they usually would say, "Maybe, I don't know. I only like the old Pokemon and don't have the time to keep up with the new stuff".
What GF needs to do is stop with the Gen 1 pandering altogether and just accept that most of those original players are gone permanently. They're never coming back, and there's no point to dragging the series' quality down in the futile attempt to get them back.

GF didn't make GO and has nothing to do with the low quality of the game.
