What have the mainline pokemon game player count records been for each game?
>>
>>59444353
>player count
>nintendo hardware
Bro...
>>
>>59444393
Nintendo hardware doesn't have players?
>>
They put out only generalized sale numbers. And a lot of people don't play Pokémon online majority of the time. You wont get any good data, now or historically.

Steam chart player numbers are just the retarded way of estimating sales. The actual number of sold units is known for Pokemon games
>>
>>59444474
Campaignshitters are irrelevant.
>>
>>59444490
If theyre irrelevant to OP's question, then I have zero idea what the point of this thread is.
>>
>>59444486
They don't count the VC releases of G1 & G2 in the sales counts? Yellow has a more updated number, but only that one
>>
Palworld Won

>>59444496
There's no point because it's a stupid thread, Nintendo probably knows but the common user doesn't so there's nothing to discuss.
He just wanted to flex how well Palworld is doing and wanted to tie this to pokemon somehow so mods don't delete the thread.
If he had more creativity he could make a better version of this thread better but he went with an absolutely pointless question instead.

>>59444486
>Palworld is at 25 million
Damn Palwolrd sits just below SwSh and SV, I'm scared Pokebros

Palworld has been literally more successful than pokemon was during the height of Pokemania.
>>
>>59444509
But is it doing well? Until the new patch, it shows extremely little engagement. I'd be curious about how this looks in a month or two.
>>
This game is fucking everywhere right now
>>
>>59444515
Let's compare it to SwSh and ScVi numbers.
>>
>>59444525

>>59444521
Streisand Effect hit hard and just gave the game more publicity. Similar to what happened to Dungeons & Dragons in the 80s with the satanist panic (and honestly, similar shit happened to gen 1 Pokemon and Yugioh in the 90s and early 2000s respectively).
>>
>>59444521
I would fuck her everywhere.
>>
>>59444515
Way way more dead than I thought. I was thinking it would be okay then Hytale or something stole people

But no. Its been super dead for like two years
>>
>>59444525
all we can compare are sales and Palworld is at 25 million..........but that was about 9 months ago...
>>
>>59444353

How many people are playing ScVi 3 years later compared to launch?

>>59444537
Those are still massive numbers even for Steam standards though.

I hate Palworld not just because it's a bad game but because it's just as bad as pokemon and wont encourage gamefreak to make a better game

The girls in Palworld are hotter than the girls in pokemon. (Note I intentionally de-capitalized pokemon as a sign of disrespect)

>>
>>59444564
It's just an ARK clone anyways and SV is their best selling game ever there so yes no reason for any change
>>
>>59444564
why would it? different markets for different genres in different platforms. Unless they release palworld in NS2 or somehow the toys become a hit, GF is happy as they are, minimum effort for max profit
>>
I've been addicted to Palworld, just adventuring with your mons is fucking fun

>Steam chart player numbers are just the retarded way of estimating sales.
No they're not.
>>
>>59444528
The Satanic Panic wasn’t real lefty.
>>
>>59444858
Yes it was, I read a book on the creation of D&D and the creators talked about it.
They got scrutinized by the mainstream media but it also increased sales of D&D.
>>
>>59444514
Not until Palworld gets a weekly anime, a TCG, and becomes mainstream off the internet.
>>
>>59445173
it's getting an anime soon and not weekly and that's good, aniplex is going produce it, tcg is launching this week produced by bushiroad already better mechanic than pokemon card game
>>
>>59444498
VC Gen 1 only sold 1.5m total combined and Gen 2 didn't sell enough to even get listed.
>>59444547
Pokéon derangement syndrome? Yeah, lotta apparent men on the internet can't accept the biggest kid's IP not needing them to succeed, when they were part of so many other successful internet boycotts that changed gaming for the masses for the better.
>>
>>59445177
You do understand it'll still never compete with Pokémon, yeah? Pokémon has something palworld won't even try and cadge off of - the mass market of children. Oh sure, it's getting the tweenagers too "cool" and "grown-up" for pokémon. But they don't have the purchasing power of children, don't have the easily-swayed nature of kids and generally aren't a market to hang your game on, unless you've something that dovetails nicely with greater male culture (football or war sim games). It's why Digimon considers an entire different set of teenagers to its games today than back in the early days, when it pivoted away from competing with Pokémon, seeing the writing on the wall. I expect it to be another flame-out "pokémon killer" that can't even have the decency to stick around as a niche offering in a heavily-cluttered teen and older games offerings.
Personally, I'm more interested in Smaurai Pizza Cats: Blast From The Past, despite only having the vaguest memories of the cartoon back in the early 90's than in playing any the widely tried-and-failed pokémon, clones, killers and rip-offs. But that's because the monsters sold me on the world, the rest the games' have all just been fluff to get to collect them.
>>
>>59445190
I think this is another case of >>59444474 because the source for the 1.5 number is a Nintendo social media post 2 months after RBY VC release. I don't think the full / final numbers were posted because Nintendo generally doesn't do that aside from the larger overall stats in quarterlies.

shitendo and shitfreak thought another Monster Collection wouldn't be bigger than Pokémon lmao get fucked
>>
>>59445202
And because they likely weren't that much greater than what they already listed. It was the third release of Gen 1 people met and outside really old fuckers like me who bought them to have Gen 1 shit in modern pokémon for once (even if only retro gen 1 rather than OG) and the few newbies who bought them just to see what they were like, I don't think they had much of a market. People of a certain age would likely rather Gen 3's version and the kids likely wouldn't be interested in it for itself. The 3DS as a unit also didn't have the mass gamer appeal or approval, so even less of an audience to receive it, unlike FRLG on Switch.
>>
>>59445204
Amazing how you kids turn to hate and insults when someone explains the real world to you.

zamn, Cynthia is so popular that even Palword copied her
any other pokemon human characters they copied?

Most were just tourists checking the game on day 1 and never touching it again.
It happens all over the video game industry, most people buying games either 1- Don't even boot it up or 2- Play it for like 1-2 hours.

The steam achievments phenomenon is a real thing, you'll see really basic shit that you're forced to get early still with like "60% player completion" or something.

With a post this retarded you're probably OP too huh?

Sure I can there's there's not Pansage , not Lamball, not Kyogre and the other ripoffs

will Hiro make /vpal/ soon?
because it seemed like palworld is becoming more popular than pokemon!!

Zoomers believing boomers that the satanic panic didnt happen at this point is just sad. They'd convince you OWP and GamerGate didnt happen either if there wasnt an online record.
