>>45748530No, Nintendo do. They hold master trademarks, they delegate what they don't want to deal with.
>>45748541Anon, Nintendo don't care. They don't give a shit that Pokémon is as it is, because the money they make off it being that way, FAR fucking outweighs any potential earnings were it made any other way. Every metric, from first concept sketch to last-sold merch item.
Because even Nintendo see these games as ones for the 6 yo's. Shit, it's why they KEPT the dogshit handhelds meme for so long - keep 'em cheap, keep parents buying them for kids, keep sellig Pokémon.
Or do you not think we could have gotten what we have now with Pokémon on Switch, had Nintendo given a fuck enough to push a Vita-level competitor instead of what they did do? Game Freak develop to whatever standard their current vehicle for Pokémon allows - nno higher. No point hen it's Nintendo at the wheel.
