>>53141029>DP launched 2006, Platinum in 2008Yes and Sonority put out a game between then in 2007.
They aren't a Nintendo/TPC affiliated studio despite what bulbapedia says.
>HGSS was made by a new team of hires, Also false some of them even go back to GF's earlier games like Bushi Seiryūden.
In fact onky about 3 on the programming team started with HGSS with the large majority having their first game RS or FRLG.
You can easily search for this information so I don't see how you could even get this wrong.
>and Gen 5 happened in 2010 (three year production cycle, means 2007 start-date for the project) Also false in the Iwata asks about BW it was said that everyone was working on Platinum. Knowing that the rest were on HGSS. That would give BW at most a two year production cycle not counting any minor planning.
>and given we know Turner et al were new hires working on those games that came from GS,Once again, false. With the exception of Turner and Yusuke Ohmura most of the people who worked on Sonority games have a history with GF, working on Sonority games for the sake of design consistency.
Of course I've only done a quick scan of names there may be more I've glanced over but there aren many from Sonority.
