Should Nintendo Take The Pokemon IP From Game Freak?

[Bud23]

Many fans disappointed after the announcement

Subpar visuals, boring world, bland characters, a lineal map, same old shit ( just some opinions I have read)

So the question is in the air, should Nintendo develop it in-house, with a much bigger budget?

Or do you like Game Freak and their direction of the series

They don't even own it, they can't do that

I bet Nintendo is very happy with how much Pokemon games sell.

I'm way more excited for this than Lets Go but I think that would have happened basically no matter what.

Also they can't even do that.

Pokémon fans are a fickle bunch (change little or lots, many will complain), but the game always sell gangbusters, so no.

 

[Aleh]

You are out of your goddamn mind.

Lmfao if Nintendo has any power in that whatsoever

Love these irrational threads about how the Pokemon IP should be handled

Why don't you

Why don't you just, drink some water or something lmfao

Jesus what many fans? This site and others like it are far from "many fans".

That being said, no, as I think Pokémon Sword & Shield look fantastic.

I wouldn't trust Nintendo to do it any better internally tbh.

Click to shrink...

Many fans? Many people on ERA are dissapointed and this forum is an incredible small amount of the fanbase. There's also many people on ERA happy with it.

You assume it would be better by default

 

[Ahri]

Good lord. Get off the Internet man.

 

[Kinsei]

No.

 

[BDS]

Typical out-of-touch ERA. This game, like all Pokemon main series games, will sell like gangbusters and be critically well-received. Just don't play the fucking game if it's such a big deal to you. It's okay to Not Like Thing.

 

[mrmoose]

How would they do it? And are these many fans going to boycott the Switch games? Or buy them anyway?

 

[DontHateTheBacon]

Pokémon Let's Go just sold... *checks notes* 10 million copies.

No.

 

[Silky]

"many fans are upset"

Who the FUCK are you referring to

Don't make low-quality, inflammatory threads like this.
