Forums - Nintendo - Is the Wii U (and gaming in general) too weak for the Pokemon game we all want?

I probably worded that wrong. I mean the whole world out would have to be modeled to be big enough to fill a 700+ Pokemon population plus and entire human population, on top of being dense and filled with interesting environments. I don't mean that it would all have to be running at the same time.


I don't think there's a technical problem. Xenoblade Chronicles was on Wii and the Wii U has much more RAM and storage space.

The biggest problem would be the production costs of such a big project.

I can only imagine a MMO Pokemon that would be awesome.

I, for one, would hate a Pokemon MMO. 

I like forging my own story in the game, I don't need random battles from other players ruining my day. Pokemon should always have a seperated single-player and multiplayer mode in game, and I hope they keep that system. Plus any kind of MMO requires extra money to stay afloat, and the only method of geting that money that isn't free-to-play is a subscription.

Some are fine but if it comes at the cost of having the ones that are attrocious than no thanks.

Xenoblade isn't nearly as big as this game would be. There aren't 700+ different unique monsters in Xenoblade.

That's entirely subjective, and no real Pokemon fan think like that, and therefore wouldn't be the audience for this game anyway.

Fifth gen was bad, but most of the other Pokemon from the other gens are great. Third and sixth gen in particular have some awesome designs. 

I think we need to get past nostalgia and realize that the newer games are eons better than the originals.
