| bdbdbd said: For one, Pokemon Go is a game that needs lots of constant maintainance, which goes against pretty much everything you've been pointing out with saving resources. Secondly, Pokemon Go is a third party game, with Nintendo's share being "pocket change" in relation to parties that are actually involved. What you need to look, is Super Mario Run; that's a game that represents Nintendo's mobile strategy. Games they put out, are first and foremost ads Nintendo is able to monetise. A model with better portability is the one that's supposed to replace 3DS. However, it's market that decides. |
Pokemon Go is maintained by another company so again you're not debunking anything here as Nintendo don't need to focus on it, it's generating constant money while advertizing a key franchise. Pokemon is a first party IP don't give me non of that third party nonsense because that doesn't fly here, Nintendo are the ones who initiated the whole venture into mobile.
Pokemon Go is also representative of Nintendo's mobile strategy as seen with the approach to Fire Emblem, nothing you have posted can argue against any of this no matter how many times you try to say SMR.
No Switch has good portability it's the same size as an iPad mini, portability in today's era has changed a lot since the 3DS launched, even phones today are bigger than phones from close to a decade ago. We're in an era where tablets and larger phones are carried around by most people, Switch is a 3DS replacement a more portable model is not needed for that.
