Why are so many anons triggered by the ideo of Pokémon games moving to the Switch?
As I see it it's a logical step to the fracnchise, after all the 3ds hardware is getting obsolete and developers can use the extra power of the Switch to make a better looking game

I'm happy about the switch. The 3ds games just don't instill much confidence that they'll put forth a reasonable amount of content like the DS era.

Probably because most of the /vp/ is poor as fuck and was so used pirating every entry than it can't even fathom unironically unzipping 400 bucks + tip to play muh Pokémon.

Because they're too young to remember older console shifts. And even if you remind them about it, since they're too young to remember, they'll come up with pathetic reasons why this time its totally different, just like what's happened every other time.

So Game Freak will future proof the battle backgrounds or some shit this time and the game will still run at 5FPS?

Difference here is that with SM they had very little reason to actually try since 3DS has a humongous userbase and Pokémon basically sells on name alone, while Switch needs every help it can get. It's fairly likely Nintendo sees it as a console mover, and to actually function as one the games needs to be good.

That's why Nintendo made a hybrid anon, so you can pull it out of the dock and take it with you.

Sadly as you said "Pokémon basically sells on name alone" so as soon as the main Pokémon games jump to the Switch a lot of people is going to get a switch just like happen with the 3ds despite if the games are good or not

Pokémon may sell on name alone, a console doesn't.

And at $300-$500 (depending on location and what all is in the box) it'll be a very tall order.

I honestly miss the 2D sprites, they looked much more appealing than the 3D models which while pretty nice, don't have the same appeal, I know it was an inevitable thing, but I still wish they stuck to 2D.
Pokemon games on the Switch I will look forward to, but I wasn't too enthralled with the 3DS games.

I'm probably really dumb because you probably live somewhere else but

Price of switch with the controllers and no games: $300
Price of switch bundle with a game and controllers: $375

Still cheaper to get a switch and a game instead of the bundle but jesus Christ where do you live? $500 for a switch and game bundle is disgusting.
Also Switch game: $60

You can go back to the X&Y announcement in archives and see the same bitching about having to buy a 3DS.
