Something that really bugs me about Pokemon is that we only have one chance to play it to it's fullest, unless your willing to lose all your progress. In almost any other game you have multiple save files, or at least 3. And it isn't about the genre, so why is it? I doubt it's hardware/software limitations, since the series has been going for almost 20 years now. If you say it's because it's on a handheld, then what about the console iterations?

I say it's for the money. They want us to either buy the 2 or 3 versions of Gen X. And if we get multiple save files, there's no reason to get the other version/3rd version/sequel of the game (except if you want to catch' em all. But now we have an improved GTS for that)

You got it. They know that people (families) will be forced to buy multiple copies. My house had at least 2 copies of the older Pokemon games. It worked.
