So much for Stars.
Meh.

 

[ArchedThunder]

3DS only is lame as hell.
The trailer didn't really show anything interesting and the new forms for Solgaleo and Lunala are fucking terrible.

 

[Quintin DM]

Mother fucking Eurogamer got us all hyped up for a bunch of lies!

 

[ToTi]

lmao

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Oh my god I haven't seen this much salt since Bayonetta 2 was announced. Amazing.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

They only did this because TPC puts in bare minimum effort on the iterations and they literally don't have to make any new assets as long as it's on the 3DS.

 

[bomblord1]

...

 

[Eria]

*Gamefreak

There are 66 million 3DS consoles sold.

So what, so they release games for Wii?

Nosense from Nintendo wtf

 

[Sgt. Garlic]

Boooo. They couldn't even do cross-gen.

 

[hughesta]

Eurogamer you've hurt me for the last time

 

[Ajszenk]

Oh Nintendo...

 

[Metal Khaos]

"Oh no, it HAS to be for Switch".

This is why we keep our hype in check people.

 

[Danielsan]

What the hell Nintendo / Gamefreak...

 

[Demoli]

Everyone who didn't see the B2W2 situation coming was voluntarily blind.

Switch will get it's gen 8, Gen7 is gonna be 3ds only

 

[gatirosho]

 

[DecoReturns]

I'm glad I like my 3DS.

Also guess Eurogamer is wrong

 

[Frumix]

GF in charge of effort

 

[Forkball]

FFS Eurogamer. I TRUSTED YOU

 

[Magicpaint]

Oh dear

Meltdowns incoming

 

[HawthorneKitty]

I'm hyped.
I can't find a Switch.

 

[NormalFish]

Best direct of all time.

 

[Bubble]

Good shit. Alternate story + old Pokemon appearing. Curious how they are going to do it.

Excited for this.

 

[Clov]

3DS? That's disappointing.

 

[entremet]

So, Third games never go to new platforms. This is basically the third game.

 

[Ydelnae]

It's not a sequel, but an alternate story to the original games featuring brand new Pokémon.

 

[Neoxon]

They only did this because TPC puts in bare minimum effort on the iterations and they literally don't have to make any new assets as long as it's on the 3DS.

The Pokémon models were already future-proofed for HD use, so that's not the issue.

 

[Dandy Crocodile]

I'm excited! I'm curious about the all-new story.

 

[Dragbolt]

And the 3DS continues to live! Yes!

 

[Chauzu]

Eurogamer, you let me down.

I've moved on from 3DS, so I guess I'll be waiting for next gen to enjoy Pokémon again.

 

[chaobreaker]

Pokemon USUM

Yep. Get used to that now.

 

[KarasuEXE]

I just hope there's genuinely more content compared to the previous title...

 

[Shahadan]

The only thing that made sense, yet people didn't listen

 

[MattAces]

Wow. People were just joking about mainline Pokemon 3DS game Nintendo. Why do you have to take it seriously.

 

[Roufianos]

No reason for me to buy a Switch then.

 

[gardfish]

Zero problem with this tbh, I'm perfectly happy to get more mileage out of my 3DS

 

[OVDRobo]

No. Stop. I'm not buying any more 3DS games. 400x240 has no room in 2017 and S/M wasn't so groundbreaking that I'm itching for a sequel.

 

[Rncewind]

im too upset and underwhelmed to make even a sarcastic comment

wtf nintendo/gamefreak

 

[Mysterious]

I guess this makes sense since they announced a new model of the Nintendo 3DS for release later this year.

 

[Cathcart]

Fine with me. I really didn't want to go through all of the hand holdy bullshit in Sun and Moon again but I may have been tempted to with a Switch version.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

Im not laughing. how lazy

 

[evil monkey]

Announcing it so lowkey at the end of a Switch game announcement. Masterful trolling.

 

[Growlie19]

Begrudgingly purchased. Why is Game Freak allergic to releasing main series games on consoles? Sigh.

 

[Deadpool_X]

This is just like when White 2 and Black 2 launched on DS after the 3DS had already launched. Not surprising.

 

[Adrian121]

That little mini-trailer they showed for the game was awful.

 

[Link_enfant]

I saw that coming unfortunately, but I'm still disappointed. I don't care for Pokken DX
I just want a main game on Switch, whatever it is.

 

[luulubuu]

Pokemon Ultra Sun for the 3DS

 

[NSESN]

So the Eurogamer rumour just after the release of Pokemon Sun/Moon was fake? Why they ever did that I will never know.

 

[Ottaro]

Install base

Nintendo likes money

But the biggest install base would be putting it on both.

 

[rochellepaws]

I think that kills off the notion entirely that Nintendo sees the Switch as a 3DS successor. We'll have a new handheld in a couple of years and the next Pokemon will be on that. The Switch is their Wii U successor, not a hybrid.

 

[Macka]

Fuck off.
