I was pretty skeptical ever since the games were announed for this year, though I more so expected the usual compromises rather than a glitchfest, but I suppose a rushed schedule will do that. Hard to say how bad it is without playing it though, but I don't really plan to. As long as they stick to the 3-year cycle for mainline games I doubt we'll see a game from them that feels on par with other big Nintendo series, and even if that doesn't necessarily make them bad they have mostly lost my interest at this point.
There is perhaps a slim hope they could spend a little longer on the next generation, since it's likely to be for Nintendo's next system which is likely still a few years off, and mainline Pokémon games usually come out a couple of years into a consoles life. I'm not quite holding my breath though. |
Going from what we've seen in the past starting with the DS, they usually make 2 Generation leap games and 1 remake - granted Gen 5 and 7 had gotten sequels so we could possibly see a sequel to Gen 9 (current gen) next year as the final set of Pokemon games for Switch before we get Gen 10 and remake of Gen 5 on the successor to Switch. NS = Gen 8 (Sword/Shield), Gen 9 (Scarlet/Violet) and Gen 4 (Diamond/Pearl) remakes
3DS = Gen 6 (X/Y), Gen 7 (Sun/Moon/Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon) and Gen 3 (Ruby/Sapphire) Remakes
DS = Gen 4 (Diamond/Pearl), Gen 5 (Black/White and Black/White 2) and Gen 2 (Gold/Silver) remakes GBA = Gen 3 (Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald), Gen 1 (Red/Green) remakes
GB/C = Gen 1 (Red/Blue/Green/Yellow) and Gen 2 (Gold/Silver/Crystal) So its still gonna be an annual release, so unless they skip next year and focus on Gen 10 for the successor, I dont think Gen 10 is gonna be quite a jump - hopefully it will be. |
Do not forget the Let's Go games and Arceus. Their output is unsustainable.
