What if Xenoblade X would be a Pokemon game?

Because Pokemon has an established lore at this point.  Xenoblades story is very different.  

 

Look, if Nintendo wants to make an open world Pokemon game for the wii u, more power to them, but it should be built from the ground up.  Pokemon would deserve that and xenoblade deserves its own release as well.

 

that being said, it will never happen.  Pokemon is their handheld money maker and Nintendo seems satisfied keeping it that way.  

 

So what would u change on an "build from a ground up" pokemon game that is made different in XCX? In my opinion it just fit perfectly. It would definitve be a commercial better game. To be honest I doubt XBX would be profitable at all. The game was probl. made on a similar level to the just today released wRPG Witcher 3. Both developed from 2011-2015, both big 100+ persons teams, aaa titles.

But witcher 3 will probl. sell 3-4x as many units as xenoblade x, just on the ps4. This cant be profitable.

 

I agree that nintendio s probl scared of hurting handhelds sales with such a game. The pokemon games are probl very cheap in development but sell incredible numbers. A wii u pokemon games would easily have 10x as big development costs and wont sell anything near the handheld versions.

You seem more concerned about how the game sells then if it is actually good...As a consumer, you really should be more concerned about the quality of the game.
