Considering that Waluigi is not playable in Mario Kart 7, the two companies have an awful lot in common.

Not unless the game flops and they actually feel it in their wallets

Spoiler: If LGPE was any indication it's highly unlikely that this will flop

For quality? No
For PR? Yes
Pokemon is one of their biggest money makers and a retarded decision cutting sales, even slightly, will definitely get their attention

Not really
My hope though is they step in because of bad PR and the fact that even 10% less sales means this is an unprofitable move compared to just patching

Legitimately no, and I don't blame them. They have a bunch of other projects in the pipeline and both their 2019 and 2020 are stacked with good shit that's not Pokemon related. Just because Gamefreak's development decisions have been bad doesn't mean Nintendo will step in on anything. They don't stand to be at a profit loss or anything should SwSh flop. I wish they'd advise them to reconsider, but at the end if the day Gamefreak is going to he lazy, as they literally always are, and Nintendo's just going to keep doing their own things.

If you've been alive as long I have, you'll realize one thing. How short controversies actually last especially in the age of social media. By November the majority of the people that were upset will have already forgotten. And when they realize that this was problem again they will have already bought the game.

LGPE didn’t get nearly as much criticism as SS is right now. The fact that 4chan, Reddit, and fucking Twitter agree that removing the national dex is a dumb move means something

Quoted By:

I think they're really uncomfortable with how Gamefreak would never deliver new Pokemon games around the time their new system hit the market. GF refusing to heed the roll call for Switch must have made it even worse.

Nintento certainly would appreciate a good excuse to get a stronger grip on what GF's doing. Forcing them to cooperate with one of Nintendo's studios will be easier now than ever before.

Absolutely not. Not only do Pokemon games still sell great, they are also system sellers, and if you already buy the console might as well grab some Mario or Zelda game, and the majority of dosh Pokemon makes does not come from games. It's still great business for them.

They don't give a rat's ass its bad, they care that even the casual normies are upset about this, which is what sets it apart from Let's Go, where only the core fanbase was upset.

Not yet, when the game sells much poorer than expected that's when they'll care, they probably don't put much stock into internet outrages even if they will result in loss of sales.

YFW nintendo has never made good games, they're literally running on nostalgia fumes from the first generation that grew up playing video games.

It's literally just 25-35yo basedboy nintendo fanboys keeping the company in business at this point

Nah, Switch could easily handle not getting Pokemon this year and Nintendo knows well how stupid investors can be.

I honestly think they're pretty angry at GF for shitting all over what was otherwise a good E3 for then, but I doubt they're going to force Masudas hand unless they are convinced that Switch sales are on the line.

Nintendo is probably livid right now. They've been trying really hard to earn their reputation back since the WiiU, their E3 presentation was great this year up until Masuda fucked it all up.

Game Freaks shitty game makes the Switch look bad, Pokemon is supposed to be a system seller but it looks terrible, like an average ps2 game.

Odyssey is honestly one of if not the best 3d platformer of all time
Also, Animal Crossing, Mario maker, etc

Do you guys not play other games than pokemon?

There isn't much they can do, they dont own Game Freak or even a controlling share of TPCI. All Nintendo does is own the pokemon trademark.

Nintendo could go nuclear and say no new pokemon games until you shape up, but they cant do shit beside that.

This is how i look at it:
TPCI wants a new game with some "fun" gimmick so they can push cards, anime, plushies etc
GF is given the task to develop this and Matsuda wants the easiest thing to do and comes up with the dynamax bullshit at the expense of the national dex, the TPCI accepts this and game is given a go
Nintendo just watches as they only publish the games.
