Kotaku analyzes and points out features shown in the trailer that are not in the mobile game

1) Pokemon trading

2) Pokemon don't look as good as they did in the trailer

3) No Player Vs Player fights (only left to gyms tied to various landmarks)

4) No group battles

EDIT: Damn, this thread was meant for the Nintendo forum.

Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

1.) Trading is confirmed for a new update.

2.) Does any game look as good as it does in the trailer?

3.) Also planned for future update.

4.) I have no clue if that's coming at all.

First off, they said trading is coming in an update. Same for 1v1

Also, I understand the change. The game already kills your battery the way it is. Imagine if it demanded more for better looking pokemon

As for group battles, idk.

Downgrades? What the hell, Nintendo? That's it, no more Pokemon GO micro-transactions for me. Is it even 60fps?

I prefer how they look now. A lot.

Edit: also, the game is free. Not that it justifies downgrades, but I don't know what I'm supposed to feel ;P

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Did you seriously expect the final game to look anything like how it did in the trailer?

lol

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

You can't have actually expected the a smartphone AR game to look like the trailer right?

And since when did game cinematic trailers look like the game?

They didn't even claim it was in-game footage. Oh my..
