There was Blue released ~10 months after Red/Green. Then came Yellow 2 years after.

I hope this isn't a mistake.

It was reasonable to expect it but we can't say that what happened was unlikely. I remember snapping up a 3DS on day one and then this happening to me with B/W2.
This time I held off as I saw it coming. Man I'd be so pissed right now if I had a Switch.
The ride continues?
It's just one of the scenes from the pre-rendered intro video like in S/M, don't look too hard into it.
LOL the ultimate troll.

Lack of remakes in between, possibly because of where it comes in the 3DS' lifespan too.

Very disappointed. But super hype for Pokken on Switch. I'll buy that again!
If Switch owners aren't happy, investors are!
it's a smart business move for sure, 3DS has a nice big install base and they're releasing new hardware this year

Can I get an expanded Battle Tree and/or Battle Frontier? We've been missing one since X and Y.

Pokemon is a handheld title. Mainline games aren't coming to Switch for the same reason they never came to Wii U, Wii, Gamecube or N64. This shouldn't surprise anyone but the denial over Nintendo seeing the Switch as primarily a home console appears to be continuing.
It's a bit unnecessary at this stage that for the past year any game announced for 3DS has to have its thread flooded with "why isn't this on Switch" type comments. I wish people would move on.
Personally looking forward to hearing more on it, they were surprisingly light on details in the direct.

Now I don't know what to believe anymore. It's gotta be an error tho.

Gamefreaks is amazing
They are so afraid to change their games. The 3DS game took ages to release and it wasn't even fully 3D.
I'm pretty okay with this, I always kept this in mind as a possibility because it's Game Freak.
....They did not communicate this in the slightest, so yeah I'm assuming this is an error. still

Nintendo has done shit like this 1000 times where they just put something out in a press release that they should have actually mentioned before.
Think I remember Ocarina of Time 3DS remake being announced like that after their 2010 e3 show.
Only reason I feel like it might not be a mistake

Oh dear, did they seriously leak this themselves?
There was this thread about e3 leaks and asking were they were...
Seriously. Ice in their veins

Yeah the remake of the most popular Nintendo game of all time was found in press release assets after the conference.

Look at the bright side...this means we get Stars and Ultra Stars on Switch now, right?
.....right?
(goes to cry in the corner).

As far as fuck ups go this is really fucking overt
(watch them reconfirm this on the Spotlight since it's supposed to be Switch only)
They upset a few million Switch users and pleased over 60 million 3DS owners.

Could it be that they are announcing the Switch Version at E3? It'd make sense I think, why announce this a week before such a main event??

Yeah, they put bare minimum effort. That's why they decided to go full 3D on the 3DS with multiple individual animations for each of the 721 Pokémon, which also had to be fully 3D modeled, plus their Mega Evolutions.
Come on, now...
Clearly, this is Nintendo's punishment for America electing a racist monster.
Stars was planned for Switch, they saw how awful we are, then decided we don't deserve it.
Oh shit if true. I'd gladly pay buy two useless copies for the 3DS if that incentivizes them to make one for the switch. Wonder if it'll share an engine with Pokken?
This feels like an abusive relationship. Stop giving me reasons to hope!
