Wouldn't they normally just buy a company who is working on a Pokemon like a game. Then close them and make them do something else?

UltraNova2933d ago

Yeah..maybe all those Worst Company of the year awards got to them...not really. Maybe they are waiting for the P Go craze to die down and then release their clone?

nX2933d ago

Or maybe they realized that they are lacking the creative talent to come up with this kind of game. Most likely, actually.

OneLove2933d ago

There is no Pokemon competitor. Many have tried already.

NotoriousWhiz2933d ago

I probably played monster rancher more than Pokémon. Particularly the 2nd one. I wish they'd make a new one.

blackblades2933d ago

There was one called collectem that supposedly still in development for sony systems. Thing is its been in development for years and not much on it like they they taking a long break or something

detroitmademe2933d ago

I'd love a good rpg similar to Pokemon. But I'd want it to be for consoles

gamerb62933d ago

If the rumours are true then your in luck, new Pokemon game may be coming to the NX

detroitmademe2933d ago

Is it gonna be a true Pokemon game like the ones for game boy and 3ds or is it gonna be a spin off like go or that Pokemon game where you take pictures all day because the spin offs are ass

gtxgamer22933d ago (Edited 2933d ago )

If it anything like Pokemon xd or Colosseum count me in

terrorofdeath2933d ago

I guess the closest Pokemon competitor would be Ni No Kuni, I guess?

GameBoyColor2933d ago

YoKai Watch maybe? It's big in Japan at least

x_BlackRose2933d ago

Pokemon Battle Revolution was pretty awesome, but we need another game like Pokemon Colosseum, with multiple regions to explore. Hoenn, Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh. Where we can traverse all those regions defeating their respective gym leaders and Elite Fours. With all pokemon available, all wrapped up with a pretty good story. Why has Nintendo not done this yet? That has triple A all over it. Could be a potential GOTY.

TheUndertaker852933d ago

Because why do that when they can split them all like they do?

Your way: $40 game
Nintendo's way: $80 for each region then $120 for the original Blue, Red, and Yellow

I mean, you just gotta catch them all, right? Plus now they've found a way to add in meaningless accessories with the Z-Ring. $30 for the ring then $7 for a three pack of crystals to use with the ring.

Nintendo using "AI" company to take down "AI" created images is a bad sign.

Pyrofire954h ago

I hope there's a huge flood of Mario Ai pics now.

If Nintendo's new "wireless device" is for tracking movement, let's hope it's for VR

Nintendo's new 'wireless device' patent suggests it tracks movement. Could it be a precursor for VR?

The prospect of having a proper Nintendo VR is exciting.

I'd die for another Astrobot on PSVR2, as the Rescue Mission on PSVR1 was incredible. Sony showed how amazing platformers can be in VR, and I have no doubt Nintendo could do some equally amazing things IF they were to embrace the platform.

“There is a lot of talk about A.I., for example. When that happens, everyone starts to go in the same direction, but that is where Nintendo would rather go in a different direction."

Good on Nintendo for not chasing the next big thing.

Aussiesummer19h ago

Well nintendo has always been about innovation so I'm not surprised.

KyRo17h ago

Always? I feel the last time off the top of my head that they were innovative was the 3DS/Wii era. They are very successful at what they do but I wouldn't say they are as innovative as they used to be.

Venoxn4g17h ago

Well, in my opinion they have popularised hybrid console which is the Switch

KyRo16h ago(Edited 16h ago)

Your opinion is correct. There's no denying Nintendo's influence on the handheld market that's paved the way for the ROG, Steam Deck, MSI Claw etc but apart from the dock to get a small jump in power, it wasn't really revolutionary, even back when it launched. It was a more refined concept of the Wii U which again wasn't new or groundbreaking back then either.

Aussiesummer8h ago

What the switch wasn't innovative? Cmon.

SeTTriP5h ago

He was saying that's what they strive for and that is a fact.do they always hit the mark?. no but it's in they're design philosophy all the same.

badz14919h ago

LOL simply because they don't want to invest in it and stick to their outdated approach. See the next pokemon game on Switch 2 will look like something that should come out during the PS3 gen

Profchaos17h ago(Edited 17h ago)

So a custom art style vs GTA trilogy style mistakes through their games

I'll take the art style thanks

WolfSeed19h ago(Edited 19h ago)

Translation: We'll wait until it's cheaper.
