If they feel that Pokemon can successfully be taken in a new direction, they'll do it. They aren't where you are right now in terms of game design. The question then is, is that a good or bad thing. |
The thing is, it's not some "new direction." It's just Pokemon making the next natural progression. JRPGs have been doing it for years already on consoles. Final Fantasy has done it years ago some extent and finally to it's fullest extent. Pokemon will finally have the hardware to get it done after the 3DS, so it's past time that Pokemon actually makes that final evolution. (sorry)
They already have the foundation laid out. They have 700+ Pokemon fully modeled with animations already. All they'd need to do is polish those up for the next handheld, as opposed to completely starting from scratch. They have cutscene after cutscene with every character and Pokemon done to scale to make those seem more "epic." They need to finally take that it's fullest and make the whole game that way.
