>>39003149LGPE was a straightforward remake that was competing with Smash. SS is Nintendo's biggest holiday title of this year and is a new mainline Pokemon game. It's a system seller that's bound to get picked up by clueless moms and children who don't give a fuck about any of this community shit and probably aren't even aware of the problem. Not to mention thousands of kids who will fall under poketubers' influence and buy the game because they want to feel like they're in the community and they're going "against the hate".
Basically, Pokemon is fucked unless the Japanese community is livid enough to act consistently on the matter.
