A Pokemon game that soon after Sun and Moon?

Pokemon Snap ? :o

I was thinking Pokken or Sun/Moon port. 



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

Within six months, great (sarcasm). If Zelda isn't a release title, then i would be disappointed.

So close?

This either means handheld versions of these series or just special editions of Wii U games. No way another Zelda game is coming unless it is a party game or Hyrule warriors 2.

Right?

The Zelda game is Breath of the Wild. 

The Mario game is likely from EAD Tokyo since the main team hasn't released anything since 2013. 

Pokemon is more of an open question. What if it was some kind of enhanced companion version to Pokemon Go?

Pokemon is the curious one. Sun/Moon will still be really new if it's coming out within the next year. So probably not a mainline game. Could it be possible there has been a big open world Pokemon MMO fans have wanted in the works for years and that's what it is? Probably not. The idea of it being related to Go is a good guess.

I wonder if that Mario game is a Mario Maker port. Miyamoto made it kinda clear that the next 3D Mario game won't be out until holiday 2017 at the earliest.

Eh, that's close enough for them to get away with saying "within 6 months." March to November is only 8 months and you know Nintendo and their sense of time lol.

Yeah, probably. Let's just hope they don't delay it to 2018 or something.

I think Splatoon has to factor into the first year too ... it was a phenomenon in Japan that got its legs prematurely cut off because Nintendo stopped Wii U production basically.

They will want it early on the NX so that NX players can play it. Either a Splatoon 1.5 or a full on Splatoon 2 will happen in 2017 I think.
