Ahhh okay. I just assumed he's talking about the ORG. He seemed pretty deliberate but I may be reading that wrong.

Unless they're creating new animations for all 801 pokemon, I don't think they're spending too much time on them outside the new pokes. I'd be more worried about their texture work
Don't think you can stop my hype, Jonneh
You know what I have to say? I've said those things too.
I'd gladly wait longer, though, if it meant that Game Freak would make the game they want to make in one go instead of a game that will get an improved version just a year or two later. That's of course not going to happen.
Except wasn't the last game not well received in Japan? It did sell well, though.
Not excited by a 2018 release, I'll take a wait and see approach if it is actually releasing this year. Definitely not purchasing these games day 1 blind anymore
They are still timed with CoroCoro but yeah it's true that they reveal some stuff independent of it. Regardless the drip feed is their life blood. If the game is coming this year then they will undoubtedly reveal it prior to E3.
It would make sense, Game Freak would of likely got access to Switch Kits way early on and dev work probably started longer than we suspect. Also having Zelda for launch, Mario for 2017 Holidays, Pokemon for 2018 Holidays and Smash for 2019(or 2020) Holidays with everything filling in around them sounds like a Nintendo like schedule.
Is Pixelpar not just using the job listing as his source? I'm not sure much can be assumed about the project based on this. Only convincing evidence is the specification of strategy guides.
...huh...
that's what I was saying to begin with. They're already made...
I mean, that is also probably the game they want to make, because it is the game they always make in one form or another lol
Ever since XY, I don't think Corocoro ever had exclusive news that didn't get disseminated in other languages by TPCi
I thought they were one of the many naysayers when it came to Switch? Or maybe I'm remembering that wrong.
I'd imagine Pokemon could also push the online service instead. It's certainly popular enough.
That was Ishihara, the CEO of Pokemon Company. But if Nintendo wants a Pokemon game, they'll get one.
I remember them switching engine after HGSS, but since it's been such a long time I wouldn't really know where to look for a source. And this is what they said about Sun and Moon:
Ohmori said:
Remember that the team that made Ultra S/M is not the main team. They had a younger team make those games.

I dont even care for pokemon. I just want to see the damn game and how it looks. An upres port of the 3ds one with some current gen lighting would all i need to see.
hmm so two year dev time for gen 7. We can assume gen 8 development started right after development of Sun and Moon. The B team was on Ultra Sun and Moon.
No they weren't. it was TPC, not Game Freak.
I'd love for the whole booth to be designed around Pokemon, similar to how the last two were designed around Mario and Zelda.
BOTW debuted at E3 2014
It was necessary to show off the Switch line up before E3 last year because the console was launching well before E3 and they needed to sell consumers on it
Pokemon won't be shown until E3
Yet another piece of the puzzle.
Like what? The anime is the biggest tell, and that certainly could be there by year's end given how much of the game content has already been used up- they've been planning for a notably short generation since before Sun and Moon launched.

"We here at Nintendo, have mastered Unreal Engine 4"
I'm hoping this applies to Game Freak as well.

I know everyone wants a Switch Pokemon as soon as possible, but if they are release one so fast, it's just going to be a better looking version of the same formula.
People hoping for a grand Pokemon adventure with amazing graphics like BotW or Ni no Kuni will be disappointed.

define disappointment cause there is no doubt in my mind this game will make a ton of money.
I certainly didn't expect a BotW but with Pokemon. But GF sould have seen how people love the freedom BotW gives to the players.
Maybe the ability to tackle gyms in order that you like? better map design?
Pokemon is not a Nintendo-controlled franchise. TPC decides when to reveal it, and it's always before E3 on a dedicated Pokémon Direct.
Except Pokémon has never had its first gameplay footage shown at E3. It's not impossible, but history would point to it being revealed earlier than that if it's coming this year. They like hyping up the new games almost every month before release
The Pokémon Company usually does reveals on their own terms. Assuming that this is Gen 8, expect a Pokémon Direct either this or next month announcing the game(s) if we're getting Pokémon Switch this year.
On one hand, localization is one of the last steps, but we haven't seen footage.
I was on Team 2017 for Xenoblade 2 because localization was being worked on around this time, but we had also seen footage of the game in January. I can't believe Pokémon comes out this year if we don't see anything until E3.

What I meant by disappointment was, the actual game was just the same as the others with nothing different or somehow was notably worse than previous entries but still sold a fuck ton. Then what do we think? Would GF still stay to do the next one, yes? Probably just get assisted by another studio I assume?
I mean Nintendo has a definite say when they think is best to announce the game and it was probably on Nintendo's council they revealed the game on E3 last year.
But of course TPC loves being "special," so I'm sure they probably will have their own mini-announcement for the gameplay/full reveal.
GF is not going anywhere because Pokémon is their IP, along with Nintendo and Creatures.
