I think the last big game we'll see from Nintendo on 3DS is Pokemon Z which will most likely come out this year. Their dev teams are most likely working on NX titles so the NX won't suffer Wii U's launch issues.

I agree, Nintendo should release one major pokemon game before they finish supporting the 3DS

Lol, that naming system would be worse than the new 3DS :p

Shame on you!:P

Based on the news about Zygarde, I assume that you're informed about them... Pokmeon XY& Z OR XY YZ are very possible things!:P

I don't really see that happening..

..Pokemon Platinum isn't DiamondG and PearlG or the likes so XZ and YZ would definitely be strange :p

Yep many of Nintendo's major teams should have games releasing between holiday 2016-2018

EAD Group 1-Releases a new Mario Kart title every 3 years (DS-2005, Wii-2008, 3DS-2011, Wii U-2014), a new Mario Kart for NX in 2017 is likely.

EAD Group 2-Released Nintendo Land & Animal Crossing: New Leaf during holiday 2012 followed by Splatoon & Happy Home Designer in mid-2015, Splatoon 2 & the next mainline Animal Crossing in 2017/2018 is possible.

EAD Group 3-Has Legend of Zelda releasing for Wii U holiday 2016 and is likely to be cross-gen with NX. Also releases a 2D Zelda every 3 years on average (Phantom Hourglass-2007, Spirit Tracks-2009, Link Between Worlds-2013, Triforce Heroes-2015) so a new 2D Zelda in 2018.

EAD Group 4-Released NSMBU in 2012, Pikmin 3 in 2013 followed by Mario Maker in 2015 and Pikmin 4 rumored for 2016 which could be either Wii U or NX at this point, the next 2D Mario in 2018 is feasible.

EAD Tokyo-Releases a console 3D Mario every 3 years (Galaxy-2007, Galaxy 2-2010, 3D World-2013) with smaller projects in between (DK Jungle Beat port-2008, 3D Land-2011, Captain Toad-2014) so a new 3D Mario for holiday 2016 as an NX launch title and a smaller project the following year.

Retro Studios-Releases a new game a little over every 3 years (Prime 3-Aug 2007, DKC Returns-Nov 2010, Tropical Freeze-Feb 2014) a new title in summer 2017 is very likely.

Game Freak-Releases a new Pokémon Gen every 3-4 years (1996, 1999, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2013) so Pokémon Gen 7 for holiday 2017.

ND Cube-releases 1-2 new party games every 2 or so years (Wii Party-2010, Mario Party 9-2012, Wii Party U-2013, Mario Party 3DS-2013, Mario Party 10-2015, Amiibo Festival-2015) so I expect at least one party game from them in 2017, probably a new Mario Party.

Monster Games-Releases a new game roughly every 2 years (Pilotwings Resort-2011, DKC Returns 3D-2013, Xenoblade 3D-2015) I think a Tropical Freeze port in 2017 is likely.

Hal Laboratory-releases a new Kirby game every 1-2 years, I expect a new one in 2017.

Intelligent Systems-Released Fire Emblem & Paper Mario in 2012 followed by Codename STEAM & another Fire Emblem in 2015. At least one new title by 2018.

Sakurai-Released Kid Icarus in early 2012 followed by Smash 4 in late 2014, if he gets a team to work on Smash 5 shortly after they finish up with all their updates/DLC, they could feasibly release it during holiday 2018.

So something like this could be possible

2016-3D Mario, Pikmin, Zelda U port

2017-Tropical Freeze port, Mario Kart, Retro's project, Kirby, Mario Party, Pokemon Gen 7, small EAD Tokyo game

2018-Splatoon 2, Animal Crossing, 2D Mario, 2D Zelda, Smash Bros, Paper Mario, Fire Emblem

Thats not including other projects from 2nd party developers and 3rd party collaborations.

I mean we got Pokemon black 2 and white 2 as sequels to pokemo black and white, instead of Pokemon Gray as third version! So now  we might get Pokemon X2 Y2 as you implied but they could be named XZ YZ , given Zygarde's facts! Or if it's just a third version, instead of Pokemon Z, Pokemon XY& Z provided that,  there is a Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde Pokemon hybrid!:P

Besides what we alreadhy know? Nothing. I think a new Kirby is more likely to come out on the NX.

Lol yes, but that still is wayy more confusing than just Z or X2 Y2 :p
