Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Pokemon Stars Confirmed? (gamestop)

tweet in question

I guess Gamestop had a slightly different description up for awhile that included mention of skyrim (which we know of) and pokemon (which a pokemon stars game was rumored previously).

I do think there is a very good chance that we'll see a stars game in the reveal to help launch the console as the third game from moon/sun. Thoughts?

Would be nice, but wondering if it will be insanely better looking like it should be.



 

The event can't come fast enough @_@

Why? Why not just be the same game up-rezzed?

I'm so tired of people actively hyping up ports. Ports. I know that Nintendo does a lot of shit, and I know that The Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, and even at one time Mario himself have remasters...but ports of 1-3 year old games to hype up a new console? Pathetic. I don't care if Stars prints them money, or if Mario Kart 8 is easier to port than to make a new game. I'm a consumer and if Nintendo really just came out and put all these ports onto the system to make them system sellers, they deserve to fail. Seriously.



Nah, still not gonna expect to see Stars. Do we know if that's not photoshopped?



No, not really but it could be

hope its true



Given MCV reported that NX's first year titles would include Zelda, Mario and a Game Freak developed Pokemon several months before the Eurogamer report (even before Switch was properly announced), and given this little detail, I think Stars makes increasing sense as a Switch title. I wasn't expecting a January announcement for it, given it would cut some of the legs out from under Sun/Moon (an announcement on Friday means I for one won't buy Sun/Moon), but it would give Nintendo a huge title for later in the year.

The angle in that advertising is also quite interesting. "Skyrim on the go, Pokemon at home" is clearly a way of targeting a more mainstream market than the Nintendo core audience, and an easy way of saying "best of both worlds" on one system as the advertising angle.
