>>33464510No, it's obvious why they're doing it. It's unlikely this is even a thought in their mind.
They gave us an "Oh yeah, and US/UM" bit in that Direct because they're focused on the Switch.
3DS has always been meant to be replaced by it too so this was obviously the way they were going to go... to focus on Pokkén and just give us bits about the Gen 7 follow ups.
They don't generally talk story and they don't generally talk returning features so there's going to be less to give anyway. Might as well wait until the main sales period of Pokkén has passed.
Once the controller for Pokkén working with the Switch leaked from a store listing online, I knew this was the way it would go down.
This month we'll probably get clarification on what the box Formes are (which is almost certainly Necrozma Formes) and next month and November they'll go over anything else new (hopefully including destroying our expectations by announcing a Switch port of US/UM in October).
