/vp/ - Pokémon » Thread #34651499

Okay great. The ps2 survived like a decade after the ps3 came out, and the 3ds was similarly popular. Hell The last wii game ever just came out a few months ago. It’s normal for a popular console to stick around after the new hotness is out, so they don’t lose the customers who haven’t upgraded yet. What point are you trying to prove op? Because while the 3ds is sticking around for now, Pokemon is literally confirmed to be going to Switch.

That's actually a pretty normal thing. When a system gets near the end of its lifespan, the number of people who still need the system dwindles. It's pretty common for Nintendo to release a cheaper to produce version of the system during its final years for the sake of keeping it on the shelves. The NES, SNES, GBA, and Wii all had one. Since the 3DS already has a stripped down version, they can just use that.

Not everyone has a Switch, they know this, so why not carry on releasing 3DS games for people to buy while also releasing stuff for the Switch.

More people have a 3DS, would be stupid to completely cut games for it, they'd lose too much money.

unless there's some breakthrough in battery/component tech that allows either shrinking/enlarging it enough to make the unit smaller/increase the size of the unit and still be cost-effective to make and sell, WYSIWYG. There's also the fact they've gone in so hard with the Joy-Cons, any future unit upgrades are going to rigidly stay compatible with launch-model Cons, and as such, won't really shrink or enlarge as much as you think it will. And to those saying it'll be a handheld-only model with no dock, you mean a regular Switch unit? Just sold without the dock? again, not going to happen, Nintendo want this to live in your living room and go places with you, not just be a mobile pokémon unit.

It wasnt. Initially it was a laughable flop that Nintendo did some serious damage control by cutting the price of the system, the ambassador things, rushing out games like Pokemon XY, etc.

It started to become popular when the 2DS model was released and you can see that now that they mostly try to sell those over 3DS ones

tl;dr
3D in a handled console was a fucking mistake just like a retarded tablet controller on the WiiU

I'm confused at why people think that having a switch is a bad thing. I got mines with ARMS and Zelda and I've never bought so many games for one system in less than a year.

With splatoon, Mario and rabbids, xenoblade 2, Mario odyssey, snipperclips (perfect date game), and sonic mania, I don't regret this at all. And Pokemon is guaranteed to come later down the line with even more games.
