>>36444920I don't think it'll be a make it or break it, but I do think if it does flop, it'll make Nintendo watch Gamefreak more carefully and what they're doing with the franchise (hopefully) cause the quality of the games have been drastically falling.
And if it does flop (in Nintendo's eyes) then I hope Gamefreak wake up and stop trying to relive a 22 year old feeling and stop catering to Genwunners and trying to reach new audiences and focus more on the audience they already have.
I think the 2019 game is the make it or break it game because they've said multiple times that this game is for the hardcore fans and if it's worse than Gen7 then I feel many people will move on from Pokemon.
