NO, Pokemon is Nintendo most valuable franchise.
|
Apart from a couple spikes in 2006 and 2010, the franchise has been in decline since the groundbreaking sales of the first two generations. Also, the highest selling console game, while a huge success, didn't break six million units sold. Compare that to Mario Kart or Super Mario.

black and white is tracking ahead of dp, and how can the series be on a decline, when ruby and sapphire exists?
pokemon is only growing, face it :)
|
Pokemon 1998: 31.27
Pokemon 1999: 23.10
Pokemon 2002: 15.85
Pokemon 2004: 10.49
Pokemon 2006: 18.04
Pokemon 2009: 11.48
Pokemon 2010: 14.59
Pokemon 2012: 6.16 (so far)
If we trust the VGChartz numbers, then there is decline. It's still a monster of a franchise, but it's not growing very much.

u have got to be kidding me. http://mynintendonews.com/2013/01/30/pokemon-black-white-2-have-sold-over-7-5-million-worldwide/
|
Pokemon is definetely not growing when the sales haven't come close to the first generation...
|
it grew in this generation though, so it did grow.
|
Okay fine you're being nonsensical and missing the point. I'll rephrase
Pokemon's main franchise is smaller than it was in Red/Blue/Yellow by a lot. So the Main franchise is not the biggest it's ever been.
|
ohh for the love of god. did i ever say that? i'm just saying it's growing, which it is,
|
Within this gen it's gotten smaller every release. Diamond/Pearl sold more than Black/White which will sell more than Black/White 2.
|
Black/White 2. isn't main game.. for the love of god, you should be comparing it to platinum, and Black/White is tracking ahead of dp... fail
|
look at graph... how by any statistical analysis (if you've studied at all), would that show a growing trend. That's like saying Final Fantasy is Growing Because Final Fantasy XIII sold more than Final Fantasy XII. Do you agree with that statement as well?
