I mean look, there really making everybody think the next game is Z with calling the movie "Pokemon The Movie XY & Z." The anime is now called "Pokemon The Series XY & Z."
You guys really think there gonna call the next game Z when they know people expect Z? When everybody thought the 2nd Gen 5 game was Gray then they unleashed B2W2, everyone was caught off guard.
This time, Nintendo's putting effort into calling related media XY & Z.
Think, they make everyone think it's Z over months of promotion with the anime and movie. Then they surprise everyone with a major twist. It's the perfect marketing strategy.
Say were getting a single game with a sequel format like B2W2. How would you twist that game into something completely surprising?
