>Switch will cost over 300 euros

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1333369

So... Pokemon was a successful franchise for being on affordable handhelds that everyone and their mother owned.

Launching Pokemon for the Switch is suicide, but the 3DS is getting old. What will happen now?

Gen 8 on the 3DS? 4DS and treat Switch as a home console?
>>
>>31361707
Gen 8 will be on the switch. Masuda himself said they switch is the future
>>
>>31361717
Switch itself has no future with this price.

I bought my og 3ds for around 250 ameribucks forever ago. I think it was a bit less than that. Maybe 230. I don't really remember. The point is, Switch isn't going to be that much more expensive. I just don't want it because it's gonna be the Nintendo Vita.

I knew this shit was going to bomb and it was to good to be true. Have fun while you still can on the 3DS, I have a feeling everyone is gonna miss it.
>>
I'm really not sure this thing is gonna fly as a core handheld even if they are saying it can function as one, after hearing about battery life. The portable mode doesn't really look like something you can carry around easily ether.

I just hope this doesn't mean next gen is gonna be for smart phones...
>>
I was wondering why people were thinking 300 euros was expensive, but then I realised I'm on a board where people play a $40 game on their $150 shitty handhelds.

Will they be insane enough to do it and hope they rake in the dough or make an exception for it

3DS is for sure getting another Pokemon game.

Wash your mom's car and save up. This thing is like 50 more than the 3DS was at the time except the games already look way better than anything on the 3DS and I'm not talking about the graphics. I don't even remember what the 3DS launched with.
>>
>>31361790
the battery life is between 2.5-6 hours depending on what you are plating. id imagine if they kept pokemon similar to what it is. the battery like will prob be a good 5-6 hours on a pokemon game.

Why not? It's better than it being on the Switch. Hell, being free from Nintendo's stupid online could even improve the series.

I know what you are trying to say, but Pokemon SM are literally some of the most intensive games you can run on the 3ds right now. I don't know any other game that pushes the new 3ds to it's limits.

>>31361707
It's like 30 more euros than the Wii U, how is that a big deal?

Pokemon games already drain the 3DS's battery faster than the average game.

It doesn't even matter that much since you can just import from States thanks to no region lock

But I'm afraid mandatory paid online will shrink the online player base considerably. Pokemon online features are already total crap, now imagine having to pay for them. People will just start migrating to Showdown en masse, myself included.
>>
>>31361943
And Game Freak has shown they can't into optimization. Do you think they won't go all out on background graphics the game didn't need?
>>
Pokemon will be on the Switch, simple as that.

People paid $250 for the 3DS for Pokemon, people will pay $300 for that Zelda, etc.

Switch is basically a guaranteed success as long as Pokemon is on it.
>>
>>31361961
Since when importing has no additional taxes?

They didn't, which is why the 3DS had an emergency price cut.

Wait until online play is region locked like some 3DS games.

It will probably still be cheaper than euro Switch
>>
I don't normally buy consoles at launch for numerous reasons including price, but is everyone seriously crapping their pants over $300?
The wii launched at $250 and was considered very cheap.
This thing is supposed to be both a home and portable console.

>>31361983
The 3ds didn't launch with a pokemon game.
It didn't launch with much of anything.
It got the price cut only a few months after launch with poor sales, probably because of the above.

And THAT'S when Nintendo will hit them and other battle simulators with a C&D order.

As soon as Nintendo sees the Switch sales numbers I can guarantee they will "suddenly" reconsider a 3DS successor

>>31362436
They will most likely trash the whole franchise in the process.
Their former strongest handheld seller.

When Pokemon came out 3DS was already $170
>>
>400 CAD system
>80 CAD games
>+ subscription

No thanks. I'm not tossing $400+ at nintendo just so I can be disappointed by another generation of shitty tech power and an even shittier game of lineups.

Give up on the consoles and start publishing your games on real systems
>>
>>31362529
They will survive on casual sales but the entire competitive scene will perish considering VGCers use sims to test shit as well

Best part is they still wont put Battle Frontier to compensate for the butchered online
>>
>>31361728
Pokémon is a system seller, and the price will have dropped by the time a Pokémon game comes out anyway
>>
>>31362574
>game of lineups

It's 4 am I apologize
>>
>>31362466
Gamefreak doesn't make spin offs. They make the mainline games. Denial at its finest
>>
>>31362536
Yep

I cant imagine Ninntendo pushing Pokemon onto Switch if there is no solid price cut

There will be a new handheld or a lesserr version of Switch like 2ds
>>
Will It be possible to inject on switch or will Nintendo finally BTFO us
