Pokémon has been on a downward slope basically forever, and whenever anyone asks for something like a sequel to Snap or Stadium the response is always "we wouldn't want to make a sequel that isn't significantly different from the original" despite that being the very nature of the beast that is the main series. The last good Pokémon game was Pokémon Conquest. Pokémon Go and Detective Pikachu are just nails in an already mouldy coffin.

While highly unrealistic, it's possible they could have reached 30m sales with the new GO players. However, the game dropped the ball on many different things so I doubt they're going to sell more than usual.
My prediction is the game will sell about the same, maybe slightly better. However, the players will be disproportionately GO vs veteran players, with the latter less likely to buy the next games after getting sick of features being cut each game.

I did mention it was possible but unrealistic, and I wasn't expecting it to do that well. The Switch is currently very successful and has sold more than the 3DS given the same timeframe. This potentially gives the Pokemon gen8 games a larger userbase than the 3DS games over the Switch's lifetime if it continues to sell well.
>>16696730

It's a shame GameFreak doesn't care about content anymore. Gen6 could have been good in spite of its bad engine and models if they at least bothered to add a post-game. The online features were greatly improved and could have made up for the downfalls, but they were wasted on a terrible game. I'd rather see a ROM hack adding some of the online features back into the DS games even though it will never happen. Friendly reminder, private servers exist for DS/Wii games.

The fan made Chinese bootleg game actually looks fun and cool, like an updated Pokemon stadium, almost like a dream game in some ways; though I'm sure it's not without its flaws.
I haven't really followed the Pokemon scene since gen 5; and even then not really I used to play competitively in Gen 3 and 4, and I lamented the change to 3D handhelds after seeing what they had done. I would say my favorite games were probably Crystal, and Colosseum though; and in the latters case I at first was ambivalent towards it because it wasn't a new stadium type game, but a slightly more mature story (I was a young teen when it came out) was much more interesting.
Anyway I hope for you who are passionate about this series will find a better way to play; there are lots of neat Rom hacks out there,and hopefully the backlash from this will result in Genius Sorority getting control of the series again. Enjoy some Pokelewds

They redid half the sprites every generation, not counting coloring. Now, the models and textures are a straight-up copy-paste job. Same goes for animations. The only things they "have" to do to old Pokemon is drop 2-5 tick-marks that represent which new attacks they can learn.
Cutting half the Pokedex saves Game Freak maybe a week's worth of work for about 8 guys, and that's massively overstating how much work is actually even necessary.
Game Freak has zero internal organization and follows no development road maps. They just keep pushing buttons and most don't even know why.

The worst part is Pokemon has experimented before with spin-offs, even if they were 3rd party games. For some reason GameFreak doesn't use features people liked from them and re-implement them into the main series games.
During gen 1-4 Pokemon had dozens of spin-offs, and each gen had a console game the main series games were able to connect with to transfer or trade Pokemon. Gen 4 was limited to Battle Revolution and Ranch which were only for DP/Pt (Ranch only supported Pt in the Japanese version) but it was still something. Gen 5+ not only had no compatible console game, but during this time we only got Conquest, Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity (which everyone hated), and Super Mystery Dungeon (which better than Gates, but still not as well received as the GBA/DS Mystery Dungeon spin-offs.)
I guess one might argue GO as a spin-off, but I'm strictly speaking about the console games. I assumed Let's GO was a spin-off due to it being based on GO, but GF/Nintendo insist it's a mainline game. Why are they so afraid of spin-offs? They never cut into the sales of the mainline games considering Nintendo had no problem with spin-offs when game sales were at their peak. Now that the game sales are more or less stable, they just want to stick even more to their formula with less experimenting.

It's not "fan made", it's made by people who professionally shit out cash grabs, this time with a pokemon skin. It's not like Stadium, either. Nor does it play like any pokemon game. Just look for the current hottest gachashit on the market that has 3 vs 3 battles, "certain kill" attacks, spontaneous speedups as a mechanic and leveling up your party's moves as one of the money sinks, and I guarantee that that's what they are knocking off.

"Look appealing" is the keyword.

And the fact that Gamefreak, Creatures, or Nintendo could have lifted a fraction of their asscheeks to shart out a semblance of talent to "look" appealing , or do animations, or have a national dex.

The Pokemon company is jointly owned between Gamefreak, Creatures Inc and Nintendo. Despite common rumors of it being a 3-way split, Nintendo should most likely own majority.

I get that Nintendo would buy Game Freak outright. I'm sure if they did then there would be a good chunk of GF staff who would quit. The reason is that Nintendo is the kind of company that has one developer for one kind of game. So Nintendo would restructure Game Freak to only make Pokémon games. Meaning Game Freak will no longer be able to split most of their staff into a not-Pokémon IP. Those that don't want that change will quit GF and either work elsewhere or go indie.

They already claimed they are not doing a DLC model, and are instead going to stick to the unfinished annual release cycle shit theyve been doing for 20 years.
Although it is obvious as fuck they are going to add more pokemon to the second set of games, be they remakes or 3rd versions or whatever. USUM had an additional 100 in its regional dex compared to SM, so expect that as the standard.
Also, this model will fracture the online players just enough to matter, as players of SS will NOT have access to, or possibly even the ability to display and battle against, those 100~ or so that will be in the next set of games. Like how XY had a split with ORAS additioonal megas, or USUM's 5 extra pokemon that weren't in SM, except now its going to be an even bigger divide. A 33% bigger dex or more is entirely possible.

I'm not reading a wall of text justifying your hypothetical.
Game Freak doesn't do DLC because it would actually make them less money. They already remake and redo games in the same generation adding minor improvements and then sell it full price. The adoption rate for 3rd versions is much higher than it would be for "Kanto Pokemon Pack #1" and they can sell it at the price of a full game instead of a "reduced" DLC value.
It doesn't matter if the DLC is less effort if it wouldn't make nearly as much money, and attempting to shekel and dime players with DLC every 3 months and a "full" game every year would cause burn-out and even more bad faith. They've reached a very stable sales rate on games and can predict the return on investment.

Do you have any text to justify your hypothetical?

But that requires making a whole game rather then making an expansion pack for a game while it is in development
>The adoption rate for 3rd versions is much higher than it would be for "Kanto Pokemon Pack #1" and they can sell it at the price of a full game instead of a "reduced" DLC value.
I guarantee the costs of making piecemeal DLC is far cheaper then making a new game, and while I don't know the exact margins on DLC vs a new game; and neither do you for that matter, its worth noting that the industry, by large, has shifted to the DLC business model, and its very unlikely that this this change would occur if DLC parfot margins were not more lucrative then making new games.
Additionally, the fact that an expansion pack would cost a consumer less then a full new game, there is a real possibility that DLC's affordability over a new game would open up for new customers who can't afford the price of a whole new game.
So, while a DLC expansion may sell at a lower price point, the margin on developing it could easily be lower and the lower price point could allow for more sales, allowing for them to make more money then they would using their prexisitng model.
>It doesn't matter if the DLC is less effort if it wouldn't make nearly as much money
But it does matter if DLC is less costly to make, effort is meaningless to businesses, what matters is costs, and as I have argued above it could make them more money.
>attempting to shekel and dime players with DLC every 3 months and a "full" game every year would cause burn-out and even more bad faith.
Pokemons current model is in fact about a game a year, but this is due to the enhanced remakes. If the remakes are removed then its about a game every two to three years. This would mitigate burnout potential.
>They've reached a very stable sales rate on games and can predict the return on investment.

The Gen 4 physical/special split was long overdue and a solid addition to the meta, and wifi was a gamechanger if you didn't know anyone else that played the game. Gen 5 basically fixed the speed issues that plagued 4, which was probably one of the biggest setbacks for it. 5 was when the pokemon designs started to become fairly commonly awful, which is probably the biggest issue it had to me. 6 was where things started to tank, but 7 was a mild improvement overall, even if there was way too much handholding in it. Probably not even going to get Sw/Sh, which would make it the first time I didn't get a game from a gen while it was current.

They're really holding on to that "we can't fit them all in".

Shigeki Morimoto was a great director, he's done work on HG/SS and believe that a game should have as much fun content as possible. Masuda is the exact opposite of Shigeki. Masuda and Ohmori should step down and make Morimoto director again, permanently.

There is no future for pokemon with GF. Pokemon company sees much better numbers and cashflow with the new GO crowd. Why do you think GF is placing their bets on making original content again? They knew it wasn't going to last forever. Look on the bright side, we may get proper attention paid to Pulseman if GF does well with Town.

Games only exist as a source material and vehicle to push merchandise.

For pokemon? Sure, it's been like that since genwun. It was always designed to sell toys and merch. Are you just realizing this now, and having a brooding phase in life? Did you get depressed when you realized water is wet and wind blows? Just be grateful that GF has been freed of that burden, and can make new games again.

Their idea that they want to "surprise" people by removing content or keeping gimmicks for only one generation is ridiculous.

Town looks like complete trash and it's going to bomb regardless.

How long before someone makes a switch ROM hack of SwSh that includes every Pokémon and causes zero errors or crashes?

Some time before it gets taken down and the creators get partyv&, presumably.

I hope it dies, this series needed to end years ago. The best thing I read all week was that gamefreak is making the new pokemon games a b-team priority to focus on their new IP game.
