Average for Zelda games?4 million?Outsell the game I mention?You mean Mario Kart or Mario Party, which both are Mario spin off games? *facepalm* And Im being accused of being nonsensical...

Not to mention that only one mystery dungeon passed the 4 million mark, and the most recent titles landed around 1.5 million.Which is great, no doubt, but lets not exagerate, shall we?

Look, first of all, I never said the other gens are not liked.They sold well for a reason.But to say that the early gens are the ones that people are most fond of, and by a landslide, is simply a fact.Like I said, just go out and see any marketing for any pokemon merch, especially the ones that target the market as a whole.

And I really dont get it.I really dont get how people cant understand how many users are dissapointed by this.I truly dont.People have been saying time and time again that they wanted to see a BOTW-like game for the first Pokemon game on the Switch, and thats not what we got.This is not a talk about sales potential, and its not a talk about "Its your problem that you expected Gamefreak to actually try.Pokemon games are always like that".Well, fuck the expected.I want more.Its that hard to understand?

I had several conversation with Uran about Pokemon, and those conversations are what should have happened in this thread.Every time I speak with him about Pokemon, he says how much he loves how tradicional Pokemon is, how "safe" it is, and while he loves innovation, he also loves that Pokemon also stay relatively the same gen over gen(outside of the expected bumps and new features here and there).I on the other hand, am frustated how the franchise is stale and that I fell out of pokemon ever since the first two gens, because it is the same thing over and over again with each new installment.But even with those two opossing views, we both understand where we are comming from and understand each sentiment over the franchise.

But here is the opposite.If I show any sign of being displeased about the game, I am lumped in the "hate" department, and that I should have expected that it wouldnt be a big adventure, because thats what pokemon is.And what is most infuriating about this is, and Im pretty sure of this, that you all hate a franchise or other for not innovating enough.

Can you guys just stop jumping to conclusions and start acempting that I might be wanting something a bit more than you?

Come off the BS mate you're harping on about Zelda and Mario being beloved for years and Pokemon not being yet it outsells them easily and has for 23 years to the point spin offs of Pokemon games have sold as much as mainline Zelda games what you just tried to peddle was nonsensical hence why a load of people are now calling you out on that post if we used your angle and looked at how much Zelda spin offs have sold not one will come close to any mainline Pokemon game, the most recent non mainline Pokemon game has sold almost as much as the best selling Zelda game and 3D Mario platformer in 2 months and will possibly outsell them LT this fact alone kills two birds in your argument with one stone.

People can get any disappointment that doesn't excuse making up a nonsensical argument about not being beloved you can't hide behind the whole disappointment angle on that one because it's straight up false the are others here who have shown themselves underwhelmed and not done the same.

Ahoy matey, do please use some punctuation, because otherwise its hard to read what you write! Arrrrrrrrrrrr

Listen, my mate, Im not on some BS or not even on an SB.I actually think its impossible to fit a body inside two letters! lolololololol

Ok, enough joking around.Had to lighten up the mood because of that stupid first sentence you wrote.Word of advice: If you dont have any better argumentation to back up your claims, dont go Bsing people around, if you catch my drift.

And it seems that you dropped out of nowhere in this discussion, because I never said that Pokemon is not beloved.Quite the opposite really.What i said is that gen 1 and ghen 2 are more liked than other gens, but that these other gens are well liked in their own right.But even then, Pokemon is a juggernaut and it wont stop selling bonkers.The part about pokemon agmes not selling well is directed towards spin off games, and you can see thats the case in the link down below.There it will show that spin off games have indeed start selling worse in the recent years:(outside of Pokemon GO of course)

Oh, and just for your information: BOTW is like at around 14 million right now, about 4 million units ahead of Lets Go, so I wouldnt call that "almost as much".And Odyssey must be around that number.And they will keep on selling, while Lets Go will stop when Shield and Sword drops.But hey, what do I know.

And this whole discussion started just because people cant get over the fact that some people didnt like what they saw.Yikes.
