"Andrew and I, along with Dustin Meyers of Squatch Gaming chat about what we want to see Game Freak do with Pokemon on the Nintendo Switch. Andrew begs for a Pokemon Diamond & Pearl Remake, while Dustin dreads the idea. I personally wouldn’t mind seeing the classic Pokemon titles on Switch, but I don’t think it’s the best idea for Nintendo to come out of the gate with a generation-four remake on its latest home console." - Nintendo Enthusiast
Nintendo and The Pokemon Company's Pokemon Gen 10, codenamed Gaia, will be exclusive to the upcoming Switch 2, based on a new rumor.
Is anyone expecting anything less? It will be exclusive to Switch 2 eventhough it will still look like a 3DS game
To be fair, The Pokemon Company operates quite independently, so it wouldn’t have been that strange for a Pokemon game coming out in just the 2nd year of the S2’s life to still be crossgen. I mean, just how long into the PS5 and SX life are we and we are still seeing plenty of crossgen stuff
not surprised.
nintendo was prepared to have some games sell the console.
im sure the game will still look like its from the ps2 era tho.
that is in part because of the chip shortage when everyone over reacted to sars in 2019.
I've lost interest in pokemon, the mega evolve stuff was a poor digimon rip off, then the stuttering mess the 3d versions are.
I'd love a remake of gold/silver in a top down view like lets go pikachu had, but sticking with the traditional pokemon mechanics.
Pokecology is a real book based on the behavioral science and ecology of Pokemon, and it's coming (to Japan) in mid-June.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are set to receive upgrades for the Nintendo Switch 2 to improve performance when the new console launches later this year.
Long as they keep the mega evolutions and the like out of it sure...either that or make it so they don't appear in the main Switch games. Being on the Nintendo Switch now they can easily start the franchise off in a brand new Universe.
Yeah
To be honest, I kinda wish Pokémon would take a break. I have moved towards taking a break between every entry because I’m really tired of playing the same games on a “newer” device.
I’m like Gameboy advanced days it was fire red leaf green. Then we just got heart gold soul silver followed by omega ruby alpha sapphire. It’s really tiresome between already buying a prettt much identical game twice then buying two games you already played again.
I realized after a while spending 80 on essentially the same game then to spend another 80 on a remake.... well it’s just not very smart of me. Now we have people wanting a new game for switch PLUS two remakes? That’s 240 dollars that I would hope isn’t even a thing. If we get a console version let it be one game I can catch everything in.
Maybe? I wouldn’t mind playing through Diamond again, but since they skipped on 3DS, they’re likely waiting until after they’ve established a new gen on Switch, which might be a couple years off.
