This only proves that SunMoon sucks and was a flop. I'm glad I didn't buy this crap of a game. It just now barely beat out ORAS and it's still not up to the godly gold-standard of XY.
good thread

But oras was better than both sumon and x/y wtf frogs
I was disappointed by it too. I also did not buy it, my little sister got it from her boyfriend at Christmas. She didn't seem too interested, so I took it for a spin to see if the hype was real.
>20 years later and you still dont have an option for veteran players to skip the "learn how to catch a pokemon" scene.
>far too many cinematic scenes, it really slowed down the game. I get the fact that they want to show off all they have done, but come on Nintendo, its not that impressive. PSP had better visuals than you 10 years ago.
>Once again the game is a "go from point A to point B" probably the most linear pokemon game yet, no choice on alternative roots. Come on nintendo, the simplistic Red and blue gave you a choice on what gym to hit after the first one.
>they dumbed the game down even further by blatantly telling you what moves are effective on your opponent.
>customization is still garbage on the male avatar
there are some other minor shit heaps about it.

>As of December 31, 2016
Is there a more recent number for this? It had only been 2 months since the game came out in December. Now it's been an additional 3 months. I want to see SM surpass XY in sales, becoming the top selling 3DS game so GF will make more like it.

Thank you. I don't get what the hype about Hawaii is all about. It looks like a rushed project that they had to put on the 3DS. While they continue working on it for the Switch
>14.69 million in two months
>versus 16.06 in three years and three months and 13.68 in two years and one month
prepare for a future where Sun and Moon never ends
14.69 million I'm 45 days. Only gta did bigger

No it wasn't anon. Emerald is still preferred over oras.
>>32227290
Why? For shittier graphics that are just painful to look at, low number of Pokemon and moves, lack of Physical/Special split that renders it borderline unplayable by today's standards, lack of a whole new type, or something else I missed?
>>32227166
>they dumbed the game down even further by blatantly telling you what moves are effective on your opponent.
I think that telling to the player what is effective and what is uneffective is a good idea for kid and new player. They should put an option for deactivate it if you're a veteran player.
No amount of shitposting will make people actually believe a "Pokémon cycle" is real.

>doesn't know type match-ups
>claims to be a veteran
This just contradicts itself. If you're a veteran and pride yourself so much for you knowledge that you don't need help, it shouldn't matter to you.

Dont be stupid SM most likely already outsold XY at this point so stop baiting
Allthough its true that XY did excellent and was the best 3DS selling game for over 3 years.Meanwhile ORAS is the best selling remake
3DS is good sales wise for GF
>>32227174
We'll get a more recent number at Nintendo's next investor meeting towards the end of the month
>>32227166
>Come on nintendo, the simplistic Red and blue gave you a choice on what gym to hit after the first one.
Yeah, which is why the gyms from Erika and on have basically the same levels and don't provide any difficulty whatsoever until you get to the E4.
>>32227290
Emerald being better than ORAS has nothing to do with ORAS being better than XY and SM. Both are true.
>>32227298
>painful to look at
>>32227149
>December 31 2016
SM could be the most sold Pokemon game on 3ds by now.
>>32227149
How long gf would ship their games to...
Mongolia?
(South) Korea?
China? (Except the consoles, but can only be played online)
Taiwan? (not a separate country)
Russia?
Poland?
Spain?
Hong Kong? (region in China)
Chechya Republic? (Russia)
etc.
B8 thread, everyone stop posting
Looking at some Pokemon game sales (third games excluded to keep comparison fair):
>RS + FRLG: 28.22M
>DP + HGSS: 30.36M
>BW + BW2: 24.14M
>XY + ORAS: 29.74M
>Gen VI outsold both Gen III and V despite the 3DS selling significantly less copies (65.30M) than GBA (81.51M) or DS (154.02M)
>Sold pretty much the same amount as Gen IV, again despite the significant difference in console sales
>3 of the top 4 best selling 3DS games are Pokemon
>XY are the best selling 3DS games, outselling even Mario Kart 7
>mfw /vp/ says Gen VI killed the series even though the truth is that Pokemon hasn't been this strong in years
>3rd most purchased games on 3DS
>proof that this game sucks
Pick one anon
