And no game since then has come close to matching it, with only gen 2 making little more than 10 million by the end of their lifespans.

>>30642714
Gen I had ridiculous legs, the kind that videogame companies suck satan's schlong for. It may not have sold well at first, though I don't actually recall specifically, but it continued to sell and sell and sell. It single handedly kept the Gameboy going for years when it was on the way out when Red/Green were released.

Sun and Moon have sold pretty well so far, but it's unlikely they'll sell another 30 million over the rest of their life time.
>>
>>30642780
Pokémon and animal crossing consistently sell for years.

it was a disaster financially the first few months, at least in japan. Nobody knew wtf it was, but luckily it got tons of good word of mouth and slowly gained traction.

SM's genwun pandering feels a lot more tasteful and less in-your-face than XY's genwun pandering, probably because in SM there's some love for every other generation, not only gen 1.
>>
>>30642419
Kanto pandering is one hell of a drug

>>30642611
More along the lines they hate that no other gen receives a quarter of the pandering that gen1 does.

>>30642419
Best story driven Pokemon experience of all time. Lack of late game and removal of great features from XY are really a damper on the whole thing but it'd still recommend it to people.
>>
>>30642897
I'm gonna guess most of the reviews are either

>10/10 game of the century
or
>0/10 got cancer

With the 10/10's outnumbering the 0/10's enough to get roughly 7.8/10 too much water.
>>
>>30642851
I only just got the game a few days ago, I got to the part where XY helpers fought me on the Gen1/2 isle. Is there anything I missed?
>>
>>30642780

Pokémon is an "evergreen" title that sells year-round. Hell, X/Y and OR/AS were selling like 100,000 a week in the U.S. in July during the GO phenomenon.

For as much as people complain about "professional" video game reviewers. User scores have their own special brand of worthlessness for reasons pointed out here: >>30642929

Yet people reward these greedy fucking developers giving them no incentive to sort this shit out let alone release a finished, polished fucking game.

The real question is how many of those people returned the game after being put to sleep by 2+ hours of cutscenes in the beginning of the game.

This. I'm playing though ORAS right now and it honestly felt more like an adventure once I got to Slateport. I guess it's because the player is more independent in ORAS as Brendan and Wally pretty much just fuck off, while Lillie and Haul are constantly dick riding the player. And it also feels like there is very little to explore in Alola. You'll want to go somewheres and some asshole on a Stoutland will tell you no, and even when you do go to one of these optional routes they tend to be just small bays with a few tiny islands in them.
