Why did XY outsell ORAS by almost 40k?Weren’t people more hyped for gen3 remakes?
>>55788747Remakes and rereleases in general sell less.
ORAS was not a new generation
>>55788747Holy fuck ORAS was within 40k? How was it that close???
>>55788937ORAS had a lot of hype behind it, especially since the previous remakes were HGSS. Some people thought XY were "mid" because Game Freak was "prepping" ORASIt also explains why BDSP was divisive before it even came out, because the remakes prior to it were LGPE.
>>55788747im about to play this later todaywhat am I in for?
>>55788747XY is still the first 3D mainline game. That mattered a lot at the time
>>55789095>It also explains why BDSP was divisive before it even came out, because the remakes prior to it were LGPE.That and the fact that when BDSP were first revealed, you could immediately tell it was a scam to con you out of 60 bucks.
>>55788776Yup>>55789104XY? Meh, Game Freaks first trip into full 3D, not perfect but pretty bog standard. Lumiose City still impresses me how large it feels. If you want a semblance of a challenge I recommend you either turn off EXP. Share, or play Eternal X/Wiltimg Y instead.
>>55788747Yo-Kai Watch’s biggest news headline about outselling Pokemon was during OR/AS’s run. They were the most recent games at the time Level-5 mopped the floor with Gamefreak.Kids in Japan were ready for something different
>>55788747XY were good. ORAS were shit. Hope this helps.
>>55789135cope you fuckin FAG thats not true
>>55789104me too , got X at a garage sale and about to play in a few hoursWho should I start with bros?
>>55788747It was wildly close for a remake. Usually, order is clear and defined: New Gen > Remake > 3rd Game, but Gen 6 is the only anomaly where the remakes actually stood a chance to be the top selling game.
ORAS were pretty good and no amount of frontier bitching will change that.
>>55789135>muh sales = quality go back to eating mcdonalds because you think its quality food, you walking tub of lard fat fuck
