Me too...

 

And remember E3 will be focused to switch...

Hmmmm...

3DS?

Personally, If I was Nintendo i would put that game in both platforms! An important system seller for switch and a big game release leveraging the vast install-base of 3DS! Although, it would be better switch first pokemon game to be a major one, i.e the debut of 8th gen,  not a third version of 7th gen for obvious reasons... 

Also, maybe it could a Pokken tournament port instead of third version of  7th gen!

8th gen only one year after 7th gen? I doubt it.

A third version or a remake will hit the 10 million mark too, if it's an HD game. There's no need for a completely new game now, the Switch will have a great Q4 either way.

Did I say that?

I believe Nintendo actually has a controlling interest in the pokemon company tho. They should really flex their muscles in a situation like this.

If memory serves, they have around 30 to 35% stake on the company.Dont know if enough to force their hand like that.

I believe it's a 1/3 split between Ninty, GF and creatures inc. (which is also 50% owned by Nintendo). So therefore, theoretically Nintendo has the biggest share.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

It's not Nintendo's fault, The Pokémon Company decides when to make such announcements and they've always been keen on announcing games before E3, and during it just showing some gameplay...

That's true but still TPCI is the one that deals with marketing and they are YEARS ahead of Nintendo so Nintendo could easily let them do as they please. Plus it might be in Nintendo's interest to have Pokémon announced earlier than E3 so that it doesn't steal the show from other titles (first that comes to mind is Xenoblade Chronicles 2) OR opposedly the do it on purpose so that A LOT more people follow their E3 Spotlight hoping to see more Pokémon...

It has to be a game announcement. Maybe not Stars, but Poken? Go is coming to Switch? Thr Snap sequel everyone was clamoring for on the Wii U is finally coming?

No, but if they announce a new game now, it's extremely likely to release in 2017.

Seriously? Couldn't wait just one more week!? Nintendo you master troll! Well I'm fiine with being wrong again if it means seeing Pokemon Switch a bit sooner than expected.

Pokemon fans. look to the stars!

It would be really bummy if they announced a pokemon game for the switch outside of E3, that's a giant reveal. This is probably DLC for Sun/Moon, Go and that new mobile game.
