I'd say split the difference. Remake Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow with added features and graphics and go on from that. A few generations behind so it's not really a threat. |
They did that. It was Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green.
And I really think that theycan make a good 3D Pokemon game. But like I've said (and you re-affirmed), a Console MMO or full blown RPG will become a competitor to their own Handheld series. Which is the best selling handheld series there is.
What Nintendo can do however is improve the 3D Pokemon games with an Action/Adventure game or something that works in tandum with the handheld releases in a 3D setting. Just beyond a simple Battle Arena game with the gimmick of it being in '3D'. And they need to make this into a series with upgradable models so the first game can be made over a long period of time with amazing quality...that can be transferred to the next. And as for its graphics, the thing that would make it absolutely take off (especially in Japan) would be if they gave it a Cel Shaded style like the Anime.
