I´m stupid....I missed "the last one" :(...In my defence: It was a long day !

Great that your classmates have good taste in videogames

you want a "mature" game play COD
you want a "childish" game play a POKEMON

I will admit this... Nintendo's market is mainly for younger people... they will introduce this game to the kids that just had their 8th birthday.... how many kids had a 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th bidrthday this year? A LOT.... they see those numbers as potential market.... they can't only target the audience who bought the first gen. They need the new generation of gamer...

Ahhh ! Thanks for the clarification, I always imagined that they were like Intelligent Systems and Hal wholly owned by Nintendo but just not under the EAD banner

...Hal and Intelligent Sys are owned by Nintendo...right D: ???

no... XD

Man I love this game and I'm to be 30 soon

I haven't completed a game in a long time, not even played for 50h within a week since Zelda SS on Wii

I love being kiddy

And by different, I don't mean necessarily darker and more dramatic. Just want something different, and interesting.

Take for example, Zelda. The latest game, Skyward Sword, has an infinitely more interesting story than the latest Pokemon. And Zelda: SS still retains gameplay that made the series popular in the first place. And yeah, all ages can still enjoy SS. There is no question that Pokemon has evolved gameplay-wise, but its story leaves much to be desired. This isn't Mario we're talking about here. Pokemon's single player is very much a story/campaign mode.

Imagine X and Y but with a story I actually care about. Could possibly be the best Pokemon game ever.

Flawless.

You're comparing a game to... not a game. It doesn't work in that regard, because story is always peripheral to the experience.

So basically you have grown up and Pokemon hasn't.

I wish they didn't own Paper Mario...
