I'm not blaming anyone but Gamefreak. The newer Pokemon games aren't let downs because they're the same, because they are not the same. They're let downs because the stories are worse (except for Black and White), the content has been severely stripped out, the post game content have been lacking, the intracacy of characters and there relationship has been overly simplified, and everytime they make a major improvement, they take it out of the next game instead of improving/expanding it and adding more stuff like they used to.
Fire Emblem wasn't selling poorly because it had disappointing games. It was selling poorly because it's a niche franchise. The 3DS was the right console at the right time for them.
I do expect major change from them. They've proved themselves before, and even though ORAS isn't the best in the series, it is at least better than XY, and that's an incremental step in the right direction.
