>>51319479Anon, they take two years on remakes at most (LGPE was made in 17 months), because they already did the pre-productoon on story, region, pokémon etc. when they initially made the game. Furthermore, HGSS was made by college graduates overseen by some senior staff, who were ALSO working on BW at the same time (Morimoto did the battle engine for BW while directing HGSS)
Stop pedestalising your childhood, it suffers the same complaints all Gens do.
