>>
>>58820633
This will be Pokemon in 2013

>GF make an objectively great game unrelated to Pokemon
>pokeslopeater don’t buy it because it’s not their usual slop
>gamefreak get discouraged by their fans and don’t feel like putting much effort into the next Pokemon game
the cycle continues
>>
>>58820633
If this game don't have Switch 2 announced in that Xbox Direct this month, I genuinely believe Game Freak has some gigantic grudge to Nintendo lmao
>>
>>58820658
good. GF is too good for shitendo
>>
>>58820633
Better than SHITnie
>>
>>58820633
you think this thing will beat little town hero records of highest selling no-pokemon game made by GF by selling more than 20 copies?
>>
>>58820658
If it didn't, I'm pretty sure that Nintendo are gonna get pissed because people are going to point their finger at them for the state of modern Pokemon
>"see? game freak is pretty capable to do GOOD graphic without evil nintendo! boycott miyamoto!!!"
>>
>>58820657
>GF make an objectively great game unrelated to Pokemon
every single non pokemon game they've made has been shit I don't see that somehow changing when they're working with an even more elaborate engine than the unity slop they're used to
>>
>>58820777
>"see? game freak is pretty capable to do GOOD graphic without evil nintendo! boycott miyamoto!!!"
only for the same people to no buy the game cause it’s rollslop not made by fromsoft.
>>
>>58820792
Just cause its not made by fromsoft doesnt change anything. Fromsoft rollshit sucks too
>>
>>58820658

Wasn't there a tidbit in the Teraleak of how Nintendo urged GF to have outside help to develop Pokemon, but GF just stubbornly refused? Or was it just people making shit up
Because if it is true, that's probably the catalyst kek
>>
>>58820822
better than any pokeslop GF shat out for the snitch
>>
>>58820822
The Switch special edition for this has been sitting on the shelves of my local game shop for years
>>
>>58820658
Nintendo doesnt give a fuck, to them GF is a Pokemon-spawning factory to keep the Pokeslurpers opening up their wallets, nothing more. They couldnt give a shit about any doomed-from-the-start fangames they work on as long as it doesnt eat into their bottom line.
>>
>>58820657
Many such cases

Literally who

Lmao this game proves Game Freak doesn't give a single fuck about Pokemon

Nintendo tries to exert soft power over the IP. In the Wii U and 3DS era, Nintendo was deeply dependant on GF and Pokemon. Now that both are booming, and GF/TPC are less reliant on Nintendo, they're weary of Nintendo trying to make Pokemon more of a "Nintendo brand" again, like they did before TPCi was established.

GF are paranoid, but rightfully so. There's a reason the brand distanced itself from Colo and XD for so long, why Masuda laughed when asked about those games. For a long time, those games represented a worst case scenario for GF, one where Nintendo had more power and exerted more control over the brand. GF are deeply reliant on Pokemon. They'd rather release a mediocre product they control than a great product that cedes control, even if it's just optics. Headlines about monolith "fixing Pokemon" would be a disaster for them.
>>
>>58821667
Is this why Pokemon become more aggressive releasing spinoff on mobile? To assert more independence?
>>
>>58820657
i'm sure you can understand peoples' reservations after the winner that was their last non-pokémon venture
>>
>>58821685
Yes. Everything makes sense when you contextualize it within this power struggle.

It's why Pokemon's deal with DeNA came after Go, rather than being part of DeNA's deal with Nintendo. Partnering with Niantic was a strategic way of saying "we don't need you". The reason for partnering with ILCA, an absorbing them with Pokemon Works, is control. ILCA has no leverage. They are dependant on Pokemon.

A lot of it is reading the room, but Kit and Krysta have told a few interesting stories that really shed light on the internal politics between Pokemon and Nintendo, and how "Pokemon Day" was a way they planted that flag. In a previous episode, they recounted how Iwata bowed to the Pokemon guys at E32013, saying it was the deepest and longest bow they'd ever seen. Very much a case of the pendulum swinging in Pokemon's favour, and Pokemon doing everything to ensure it never swings back to Nintendo.

that was a fluke that GF could never once recreate

Lusamine right there bro
>>
>>58821836
>Lusamine
I love her but she barely made top 10 in an Alola poll
>>
>>58821846
Doesn't mean she's not popular
>>
>>58820633
What’s her team?
>>
>>58820777
Pokefans are retarded and after 30 years still don't understand that a lot of the visual jank in GF's Pokemon games is intentional and part of the brand. Adding deliberate visual "mistakes" in special effects movies, anime, and vidya is a long-running joke that Japanese directors like to play on their audiences.
>>58821744
Based WMAF couple. Jewtendo knows Pokemon is their golden goose. 3DS was a joke prior to XY, and Switch 2 pretty much only has Mario Kart and ZA at this point.
>>
>>58822069
>3DS was a joke prior to XY
Tell me you only play Pokemon without saying you only play Pokemon.
>>
>>58822113
The only launch title I played on 3DS was a Street Fighter game I already had on Xbox 360. Animal Crossing and Mario Shart are even more repetitive and derivative than Pokemon. I can't get excited about them anymore. Smash 4 also came after XY.
>>
>>58822069
>3DS was a joke prior to XY
Are YOU joking? The 3DS already had Kid Icarus Uprising, Resident Evil Revelations, Mario 3D Land, Fire Emblem Awakening, Kingdom Hearts DDD, Ace Attorney 5, SMT4, and a whole host of other games before XY came out.
>>
>>58820633
>what brilliant masterpiece will GF make next free of pokemon?
>soulslike fantasy rpg with feudal japan aesthetic except in "post apocalyptic" japan to differentiate from the others
>looks more graphically demanding than SV
If it's not a shitshow, I will be impressed. GF is creatively bankrupt though, even the graphics aren't impressive to me because it looks like 20 other games made by more reliable developers, and if this is successful it's because they copied a long successful formula instead of doing their shitty original ideas like little town hero

It will be the most hilarious thing ever of it gets leaked that the reason Pokemon was so bad for so many years now is because they put all the budget and competent people into this project and got away with only because Nintendo has no standards anymore.
The way the 30th anniversary year is Pokemon getting gangraped by half a dozen knockoffs is just painfully depressing...
>>
>>58823121
When people say “nintendo is holding them back” is it in reference to the systems hardware or nintendo themselves? Cause nintendo have no power over them or the development of the games. They don’t even oversee development like all their other games
>>58823223
drill dozer is mid at best, it only gets praised as “a GBA must-play” because it’s fine in a sea mired in dogshit
>>
>>58822438
I mean it cant be worse than ghost of SBI

Retard

>>58823492
Nintendo themselves
Majority of people still believe that Nintendo has large control of Game Freak and the Pokemon brand like they're a full 1st party studio and franchise after all
>>
>>58820658
That’s exactly it, game freak has always hated Nintendo for trying to get game freak to put in effort for once.
>>58820665
How does ohmori’s rancid cum taste?
>>58822069
Are retarded characters, grindy boring gameplay and sabotaging Pokemon to make the industry plants looks better also are of their “brand”?
>>
>>58822069
>it's supposed to be dogshit
there's no hope for this franchise with shills like this
>>
>>58822251
>Kid Icarus Uprising, Resident Evil Revelations, Mario 3D Land, Fire Emblem Awakening, Kingdom Hearts DDD, Ace Attorney 5, SMT4
All trash holy shit XY really did save that sorry console despite how garbage it was
>>
>>58823223
>last decent non-pokemon title is a GBA game from 20+ years ago
Not looking good for GF
>>
>>58820728
I'm pretty sure it will, if not only for the fact that this thing isn't just your bargain bin AA games and there are passionate market for it
Whether it's up to standard to its contemporary or not is another question entirely
>>
>>58823896
They don't care as long as that yellow rat still exist and keep bringing moolah
>>
>>58823862
Cope
>>
>>58823235
Two more weeks
>>
>>58820657
Are you some sort of convoluted shill?
>if you want Pokémon games to be good, you need to buy everything GF produces even the games not related to Pokémon
Wtf?
If you want Pokémon games to be good, don’t buy them when they are shitty. Buying unrelated games has nothing to do with it
