My kids love the game and don't have a problem with pokemon.  Just because you find it to be a problem doesn't mean others do.  You seemingly can't figure out the difference between opinion and fact.  

I'm not giving excuses but speaking reality.  The funny thing is this all started when I said Nintendo doesn't need to do anything because clearly consumers don't care....  and here you are saying consumers dictate the market....  thank for saying what I said pages ago.  It isn't a need because consumers have decided it isn't.  

The only time a company needs to do anything is when consumers make them do as such.  Look at sales, consumers are not making the need.  Hence you have a want....  

Your kids are anecdotal, they aren't everyone.
Many have complained, documented and recognized the issues Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have showcased... The fact you are happy to excuse them because "sales are good" is disingenuous to that end.

Even Nintendo itself has recognized it is full of issues... And I quote:
"We are aware that players may encounter issues that affect the games’ performance. Our goal is always to give players a positive experience with our games, and we apologize for the inconvenience. We take the feedback from players seriously and are working on improvements to the games."

So if Nintendo recognizes it, why can't you?

Digital Foundry have empirically demonstrated the issues, as noted in the video I posted prior.
Many gaming circles, even Pro-Nintendo sites have also documented the issues like:

*********

Besides, Cyberpunk sold 20+ million copies. That game was also a technical clusterfuck, just like Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. - But by your logic the game would be a perfect AAA title because it sold 20 million copies?

In the end, most of Cyberpunk's issues were pretty minimal once you played it on more powerful hardware... Ironically, the same situation Pokemon Scarlet/Violet finds itself in, where it's a far better experience on an overclocked Switch or emulated on PC.

Those are the real facts.

I can't keep going around with you, especially since you are moving goalposts.  Thus this will be my last post.  

"Pokémon is 25 to 30 fps"

"Pokémon is a technical mess and is unplayable"

The first statement is a fact.  The second is an opnion.  Here is the reality, you posted a bunch of opinions, got called out on it and have done nothing but move goalposts.  It would be better to admit your "need" comment was incorrect.  It wasn't a need, but a want.  The switch absolutely 100% does not "need" a pro model.  You simply want one.  

Feel free to have the last word.
