@Khuutra: How would that be weakening a brand? Have you got the crystall ball? You are now saying that obligatorily, the Wii game will be worse than the handheld games or maybe that they will eat into the handheld sales? Why doesn't that happen with the rest of Nintendo's IPs? Pokemon must be the one and sole exception then. Like a singularity, perhaps a black hole?

Come on, if you don't have faith in Nintendo's teams then you are not a fan of them. Allthe other handheld/console franchises found success on both, Pokemon will not be an exception when tons of fans are waiting for them on consoles. Perhaps you are afraid and terrified about a change, but things evolve, the world is in constant change.

How can you say that when one post earlier you wrote this:

"Don't tell me what I am or what I'm not without even knowing me."

Hypocrite much?

Yeah, kind of hypocrite. But saying that Nintendo will never be able to make the brand stronger on consoles is not believing in them, considering all their past history. When they managed to establish most of their home console games on handhelds, no one came out and said that they were ggoing to ruin the franchises and bleed money. But when someone asks for them to bring the handheld franchises to home consoles, they are probably sinners.

It's not like I'm the only one asking for a 3D Pokemon adventure, and I'm not the first one either. Fans have been asking for it since the N64 era, but processing power might have not been enough before to make an open world game like Pokemon. Wii probably has enough power to do so if we take into account that the PS2 was able to run GTA 3, GTA VC, GTA SA and those were large locations. A MMO wouldn't be out of the question either.

Hey, hey, hey!  Think about it long and hard enough.  Who would be developing these 3D Pokemon titles?  Game Freak?  Do you really want a developer with little 3D experience and little experience in online play to make a MMO? Honestly now..  Also think about who would be playing these 3D titles.  Do you think a franchise with well over 10 million fans want as dramatic a change as a massive multiplayer online game on a console they may or may not own.  Not every Pokemon fan has a Wii.  Also consider that on top of the 3D development, there's also server management.  Unless everyone was willing to pay WoW-like monthly fees, there's no reason for Nintendo and the Pokemon Company to want to keep servers up for possibly years on end.
