>>29391775>Does gen 1 need to be the focus forever?It worked wonders for X, Y and Pokemon GO, and it's the most easy and direct way to appeal to people currently in their 20s; an the easiest way to get media highlight. Pop culture is fixated on Gen I and nothing will change that. Whenever Pokemon appears on media like magazines, newspaper or television, it's always Pikachu and Ash who will get the highlight.
If I was Masuda/Ohmori, I would throw Gen I remakes ad nauseum, until sales start to drop.
Sure, all of you would want to kill me, but /vp/ is at most 2,000 people; and no AAA game gets financed by 2,000 people.
