You know what? That actually looks pretty decent, and significantly better than lets go. Color me excited.

Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

I think from those two images Let's Go looks better. The character actually looks 3D in Let's Go whereas in Sword/Shield the character looks completely flat, like a 2D image almost. This results in the first image having the trainer seamlessly blended in with the background whereas the second looks as if someone copy and pasted a sprite on a background.

I think they both make Sun/Moon look like a joke. I do like that Let's Go has the 3d feel, but the lighting on Shield/Sword, plus the terrain and background details are noticeably improved over Let's Go.

Maybe i'm just a brainlette and i'm not big brain enough, but this might be the most wrong thing I've ever seen posted on this forum. And I've seen my first prediction thread.

I can never really get into these games, but I can tell this is going to be huge. People described Let's Go as a watered down remake, and it still sold 10m copies in 2 months. This is actually a brand new game and the first time a new Pokemon game will be coming to a home console. When it comes out, it's going to melt people's faces off. Like if you live in Japan or are a kid under 12, then your face will instantly just melt off.

Probably the only Switch game that will sell more than this, lifetime, will be Mario Kart.

Why should a kid under 12 be more excited about this game than Pokemon Let's Go. Pikachu is the most iconic pokemon at that age and pokemon go is probably the only pokemon game they ever played...

This game is clearly aimed at the older (hardcore) fanbase. I don't know if this game will sell much more than the let's go series.

I know quite a few kids who played Pokemon on the 3DS, including my daughter. Pokemon GO was actually for adults. At least, I knew several people who played it and they were all adults. All the kids I know who played Pokemon (quite a few) played on the 3DS or played the card game.

curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
