Meh, bad decision not putting these on the 3ds, it would have pushed a lot of console sales.


Well, they saved lots of money by not developing an entirely new fucking game. And this way it will sell a lot more.

 

3DS Installbase: 16 million

DS installbase: 151 million

Pokémon Black/White sales: Aprox. 14 million

 

Why waste all potential?


Ya I know what you're saying, but it seems as if pokemon is neglecting the 3ds. I'm very confident that pokemon would push A LOT of 3ds sales.


Yup. Hopefully it will push some anyways.

It's good they put it on DS, for the following reasons:

1. The user base. Putting it on 3DS would waste a lot of sales.

2. The game is a direct sequel. There is a high chance people who bought the first one are going to buy the second ones, too. Unless a few years have passed, a sequel is always better suited on the same console/handheld.

3. It's cheaper. Needs no explaining.

4. A completely new Pokemon Generation would draw way more people to the 3DS. That's why I think a possible Pokemon Grey won't be on 3DS, btw.

5. It's going to sell 3DSes anyway, since it's compatible to it.

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.
