i already play Pokemon at home
Some Pokémon fans refuse to believe that Pokémon Stats is Switch-only, even after the Eurogamer leak.
Stars is said to be the third version of Sun/Moon. Think of it like what Platinum was to Diamond/Pearl.
Came here to post this. I'm not expecting a main pokemon game to be more 'console like' just because the switch can be plugged into a tv.

After looking through the whole first page, I was optimistic about being the first to make this joke.
Arcades, naturally.

i've thought it was since day one but certain people seem to think that it's not (when literally everything is pointing to that)
That's not the point of this thread.

My god, it's full of Starmies
Splatoon at launch is likely (& it's rumored to be a pack-in for the Deluxe Bundle). Pokémon Stars was supposedly planned for Summer, but it got internally delayed due to Game Freak having to polish Sun/Moon in time for Holiday 2016 (according to Eurogamer).

listen to the mad man
Possibility A: Secret Gamestop leak!!!!!
Possibility B: This is a slapdash press release thrown together by cobbling things from the preview video and basic inferences that Nintendo's biggest franchise will appear on Nintendo's only hardware and the fact that press reporting has widely discussed a port of Sun/Moon.

Only saw people expecting/speculating it won't be at the next event, but if you say so.
I can see them push it to October/November.
If only because its sun/moon was too recent.
E3 first place it'll be shown.

I mean... it's very obviously right, but this is not confirmation of anything.
On GAF, yeah. I meant elsewhere.

This will be the first mainline Pokemon game that I play through. I'm playing through Digimon Cyber Sleuth right now and it's got me itching for more games like it.
Not likely given what Eurogamer said about Stars. I wouldn't expect it to launch until Fall 2017.

I mean, what else did people think the next Pokémon game was going to be on?
Yeah, it's 1000000 times more likely that we'll get some spin-off on launch.

You guys need to read into this more.
"Skyrim on the go or Pokemon at home."
This pretty much confirms that Skyrim only works in mobile mode and the Switch must be docked at all times in order to play Pokemon.

There were people who seriously thought Nintendo was going to make a handheld platform for Pokemon and other handheld game franchises. Obtusely ignoring what the Switch intended to do.
Don't expect the same kind of gameplay. Cyber Sleuth had more of a JRPG balance, whereas Sun/Moon (while much better than previous instalments) is still very Pokemon in its gameplay.
Some Pokémon fans outside of NeoGAF were expecting one more mainline 3DS game, even after Eurogamer leaked Stars.

Nor exactly sure why I bought Moon at launch, i have so many games I want to play first I doubt I'll get around to it before the Switch versions come out.

Nah. It's going to feature the most popular Pokemon from every generation. Perfect name.
Staryu kidding me!?
Its a good game. Go play it.
And who knows, Stars might be a sequel like BW2 was.

What my father said
Holy cow that's a nice / creepy username you have there.
But it still sounds bad.
Gamefreak really really really likes to cling on to old platforms.
Because the install base is already there.
