>>56224080>they totally planned it, they just never made it111No, they know remakes are one-a-system and first gen on a new system. The fact they codified that with GBA and DS both getting a remake in their first Gen on-system (GBA only getting one Gen, DS getting a second remakeless Gen) before moving to 3DS, doing the same as DS era, then outright avoiding calling LGPE a remake but a re-imagining (because it didn't follow the canon of RG/FRLG) and then putting out a DP remake in Gen 8.
If they wanted to, they could have made remakes every second Gen, or done remakes every Gen, they make remakes every time there's a hardware jump, and the last game not remade ends up two Gens out of date hardware-wise. And they deliberately made that choice, when they saw people online crying for a Hoenn remake and realising there was still money to be made from the endeavour.
