The only issue I have is Pokemon being UNDER Gears.  I think the appropriate word would be "bollocks".  lol

Not really. Combined pokemon black/white have around 1.5times the purchase intent of gears of war which is about how much pokemon diamond and pearl outsold gears of war 2 in Americas. Also considering pokemon is a game about legs and has broad appeal to a very young audience a lot of the pokemon game sales will be based on people who probably don't even own a ds yet or know the game is coming out.

I know a good amount of people who would only conisder buying the 3DS at launch because they will have Black and White to hold them until more games come out.  Most people know it is coming out.  And not showing intial purchase intent shouldn't come into this.  We all know the game will be purchased to the tune of 10 milliion eventually.  Pokemon is still the quintisential beast.
