I dunno, there's over 7 billion people across the entire planet, is it really hard to believe that 1 million people would buy pokemon XY during its _worldwide_ release?

So the only main series games that DIDN'T break 1M in their first week were R(G)B, Emerald, and BW2?

Didn't it sell 4M worldwide over that same weekend?

I was very impressed. This whole time I felt like there weren't that many people playing or even interested, and then bam! 4 million sales.

Not entirely. Nintendo also has Zelda, Super Smash Bros, Mario (fucking mascot of entirety of video gaming), now SMT. Still you know Nintendo be biting their nails waiting for that Pokemon launch count down to reach 00:00 so they can order some more hookers for the launch party.

IDK. I imagine they'd stick to 3ds at least for pokemon. Maybe Vita. wounder how the versions would compare? I think Nintendo has always seemed like a good fit for Pokemon though.

It's possible, just don't expect them to take Pokemon along with them, The IP is split evenly amongst GameFreak, Creatures Inc., and Nintendo.

I've only begun getting Streetpasses at college after Pokemon came out. Nobody had a 3DS around here before the game came out.

You guys don't realize that all of this "genwunner" pandering really did work.

A bunch of guys that I know that haven't played since R/S bought a 3ds just for this fucking game. So did I but I've been playing forever.

Remember origins? Remember charizard X? That marketing shit works. When people saw their childhood pokemon get a mega they needed the game. Might sound dumb, but it worked.

But this also now means, old players are back in, and they can expect a larger audience for any new 3DS Pokémon. Hoenn remakes will fish in whatever they missed the first time, So GF could honestly make whatever changes they please and still have a high selling game.

The remakes will probably sell really well too. Sapphire was my first game when I was 10 (started late) and now that I'm 20 on campus a lot of the other people that started with Hoenn would definitely buy a remake. And the kids that didn't get to play R/S/E would definitely buy it too.
