How in the hell does Lets Go cost more than the other games. I have to stop you right there. HD game doesn't automatically mean its more expensive than a non one.

 

It's not debatable. Lets Go is more profitable. Do you even know what Lets Go is? Even developers made this game from the back of sun/moon. The same ex you use when saying "same assets" for mamy PS games

IMO developing it for switch cost more then the 3ds games. I could be wrong but that's what I believe. It's also not the most profitable Pokémon ever at launch despite charging a lot more. So it's not like it broke the record for revenue or profitability. 

In your opinion that doesnt know this is a gen 1 remake a small game in comparisto to every other game that only has 153 pokemon (under 20% of the total) and took out a ton of mechanics as well as gameplay modes/feat.

 

Only Sun/Moon might be more profitable at launch amd made more revenue and that depends on how much lets go shipped fw (most likely sunmoon is higher since it did 10mil ship+digital)

 

That said the game was made fairly quick and had many assets from previous game. Even if made in HD the game cost wouldnt be any close to a brand new gen. 

 

Edit; maybe agree to disagree here. Hopefully nintendo can tell.us later on how much more profitable the games are. We will get NPD report on showing just how much more money the games made compared to many others anyways
