Haven't all the Pokemon games had remakes already? If I'm not mistaken, wouldn't it be time for the unveiling of a brand new 3DS iteration?

Just the first and second generations

Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen (GB Remakes on GBA)
Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver (GBC remakes on NDS)

They need to make the 3rd gen next besides it would make the most sense. You have to remember its only been a year since the last gen pokemon games came out and it does make sense in a way.

Pokemon Red/Blue = Came out in 1998
Pokemon Gold/Silver = Came out in 2000
Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire = Came out in 2003
Pokemon Diamond/Pearl = Came out in 2007
Pokemon White/Black = Came out in 2011

So 3-4 years would be better for the series so it wouldnt strain on sales and demand. (in terms of a new generation)

If 3DS underperforms, they will probably rush it.

Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum arent remakes, their just expansions to the games that came before them whether its expansion of the storyline or certain features such as the battle tower/extra Elite 4 battles/etc.

^ Kinda like how MMORPGs have expansions or some of the recent games have DLCs.

I'd compare the typical "third version" to something more along the lines of a GOTY edition.

It's the sequel to one of the best selling games of all time. Expectations were that this would match those 20+ million sales worldwide.

My friend is a Vtuber, check him out.

wow those are way lower DD than what I expected!

I guess the sales are bad for a Mario game or its just that people are waiting for Obon?

it should cross 1m units next week but I'm prepared to be surprised
