Diamond/Pearl remakes.
We're getting one sooner or later, they specifically hired an artist to make "Wii U and Vita level" "cartoon monsters".Everyone should have known that we weren't getting a switch Pokémon game after the whole "well seeing as how the Switch isn't a 3DS, Pokémon as it currently is wouldnt 'work' on Switch because it's not an actual portable and it's impossible to make Pokémon for something that isn't really portable for stupid dumb reasons. Maybe we'll give it poken or something", thing Gamefreak said not to long ago
3DS RPGs that aren't Pokemon?
Excuse me?!Everyone should have known that we weren't getting a switch Pokémon game after the whole "well seeing as how the Switch isn't a 3DS, Pokémon as it currently is wouldnt 'work' on Switch because it's not an actual portable and it's impossible to make Pokémon for something that isn't really portable for stupid dumb reasons.

Guys, this would have no impact on whatever the upcoming game is. If we're getting a game, it'd be done and nearing testing. They wouldn't be hiring programmers for it.
Yeah I know but they haven't made 3DS RPGs that aren't Pokemon or any RPGs in general in the past. My point was there is no precedent for them making anything like it even if it could happen.They make other games.
Is it possible that they'll do a dual release for Switch AND 3ds for the next generation?
Excuse me?!
New Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, set in the world of Sun/Moon.
A man can dream...gamefreak doesn't make those
He's talking about the comments made by Tsunekazu Ishihara.
Basically the Pokemon Company are over complicating things with the Switch, they don't see it as a portable and therefore they would have to change their approach for Pokemon on Switch - seems really stupid when we first heard it...
Watch them release a standalone SwitchTV that's not portable but has hard drive, and a clamshell a la GBA SP called SwitchSpi that is strictly portable mode that utilizes binned SOCs that weren't stable at docked clocks... With the hybrid being a limited edition "first run" that gets phased out. I would not be surprised.Just watch Nintendo release another portable next to the Switch.
Nintendo's been pretty adamant about the Switch being a console, and they're the same people who released the DS originally as a standalone portable next to the Game Boy.
I'm not saying it's desirable, certain or even smart, but with Nintendo it's infuriatingly plausable.

Have GameFreak got the same phobia towards graphics like the Monster Hunter team does?
As long as it's on Switch too (and that version is a noticeable upgrade), that's fine. It's understandable that they don't want to just drop the system that currently has the entire Pokemon player base (unless your count Go).
I'd find it hilariousif it ended up being gamefreak forcing Nintendos hand to release another dual screen handheld.and be grateful
The switch is that. Just make a handheld version of the switch at a cheaper price.It would be nice, having a option other then the pro premium price the switch has for everything(console, nintendo tax on games, payed online, controllers, nintendo account system etc) to have a new portable console to follow up the 3ds with a console thats cheaper, a bit more power and backwards compatible, for a fair price, just focusing on portable games.
"Switch" implies being able to switch between console and handheld. What would a handheld only version of the Switch console be named? Nintendo No Switch? Nintendo Stay?The switch is that. Just make a handheld version of the switch at a cheaper price.
I swear to god if Game Freak does not support another Nintendo console.
Yeah, I find this very boggling as well. I mean, Game Freak never, EVER, developed a single game for a Nintendo home console since 1997 for the Super Famicom, a Japan-only game Bushi Seiryūden: Futari no Yūsha. They even made games for non-Nintendo home consoles (Click Medic for PSX in 1999 and Tembo the Badass Elephant for PS4/XBO in 2015). Why they never made a game for a Nintendo home console, hence they had such close relation with them for decades, is... strange to say the least.
This announcement for 3DS when Switch is around (a system designed to be both a home console AND A PORTABLE) makes that even stranger.
