I don't see why next year's Pokémon game wouldn't do better than Let's Go. It's what hardcore fans really want. Besides, the install base will be higher than it is right now by the time it's out. |
It absolutely should do significantly better, but it's no guarantee. Those of us who passed on Let's Go are clearly the minority, so even if everyone who bought Let's Go also buys Gen 8, the sales may or may not be that different, but the production values and thus profits sure will be. Let's Go is selling to the same installbase so the only difference it makes is a higher chance of a bigger opening. So far the highest selling Pokemon on a system has always been the first one to release, but they've also always been a new generation. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out for sure!
