Excellent list.

When are we going to stop using financial success and bias reviews scores as an indication of a game or franchises quality? And I mean entirely, not just when it suits the agenda you're trying to push.
Cooper Miller
Gamefreak is just a lucky incompetent studio that managed to catch lightning in a bottle with Pokemon.
Parker Kelly
>dude just spend our entire cash reserve on each game's development lmao
Jaxson Reyes
This is what happens when you leave an incompetent studio like Gamefreak work alone, they need Nintendo's help
Brayden Fisher
Still this game will sell over 10 M easily...
And there's nothing we can do other than watch and wait for any decision that's dumb as fuck to complain forever
>Wait for VR and fucked up Furry breeding grounds, if this can be used in this version's Pokemon Amie.

Nah, they're not even that. Nintendo gave Pokemon the biggest marketing budget in video game history, as well as using their A team to help finish the first two games. Nintendo is what made Pokemon work. The rest of the series has just been resting on the laurels Nintendo (and the TV show) established.
Nothing Game Freak has ever done has improved Pokemon.
Lincoln Watson
This is emulated. The WiiU cant push out those graphics.
Connor Wood
>Gamefreak still sells millions in their sleep
BASED
Parker Davis
to be fair (and by fair I mean incredibly jewish) if you can get away with it why wouldn't you? Pokemon would be less profitable if they spent all that money on increasing their budget.
James Price
>millions of autistic manchildren and actual literal children buy whatever pokemon game you shit out no matter the quality for 23 years now.
Not a big surprise, CoD is 15 years old I wonder what their gross is
Mason Edwards
CoD games sell just as much as Pokemon games. So both are franchises that can do yearly/semi-yearly releases with minimal changes and still make INSANE amounts of money.
The devs are literal geniuses.
Ethan Bailey
>What is FIFA.
Sports games and micro transaction hell makes a shit ton of money single handedly maintaining EA where it is now.
Imagine if pokemon went that route...
>Pokemon Masters soon...

The only thing that improves with emulation is native resolution and anisotropic filtering. Let's not forget that there was a 20+GB patch needed for the game to run "properly" on the Wii U. But if we're purely talking graphics, Xenoblade X has nearly every Nintendo game to date beat out. Xenoblade 2 practically looks like an entire gen behind compared to X.
Ryder Cruz
This kind of unrealistic pessimism is what you get made fun of
Easton Hernandez
Now you know why it brings home so much money: low overhead. Why blow the budget on graphics if it's going to be a million seller anyway?
Cooper Sanchez
In fairness though, the Switch blows the WiiU out of the water in specs, an undocked Switch runs almost 2x the power of a WiiU
Ethan Gutierrez
You guys don't want to hear this but gamefreak is a small developer. Most of the money goes to Nintendo and The Pokemon Company. Look at their otber output. It all indie tier.
Elijah Martin
Both Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles X were absolutely crazy graphic-wise for their home console.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 will probably remain has one of the most disappointing game sequel I've ever played. X did everything better beside arguably the music. Yes, even the story. But especially on visual, XC2 looks like garbage and runs like garbage.
Easton Walker
How does XCX look so much better than XB2?
Thomas Wood
Because those hacks at MS rushed the fuck out of XC2 for the fall 2017 deadline. Fuck what a mess this game is.
Zachary Campbell
They have like what 200-300 people working there. They're not indie sized.
Christian Sullivan
I don't understand this argument. Isn't pokemon the higuest grossing media franchise precisely because they put in low effort in order to maximize production costs with sales? No shit it looks like shit.
What are you trying to prove here?
>literal who franchises have to put in actual effort in order to get sales since they can't sell by brand alone
Why would gamefreak want to make less money?
Leo Davis
gross numbers dont care about costs, also
>maximize costs
read a book user
Dylan Perry
>I don't understand this argument. Isn't pokemon the higuest grossing media franchise precisely because they put in low effort in order to maximize production costs with sales?
No the real reason is the merchandise
the games are a relatively small part of it
Ian Evans
They're actually fairly similar in graphical fidelity. I'm probably wrong on this, but I think XCX has more post-processing going on than XC2, which makes the final image look more detailed and more polished. Also the higher resolution helps; XC2 rarely runs at over 720p.
Ryan Nguyen
Open World Winnie the Pooh sounds comfy
Easton Walker
That's because the Pokemon fanbase are brain-dead retards that will buy anything pokemon. Vocal dislike for the Let's Go games, but they all bought it anyway.
Isaiah Cook
If only X actually looked like that.
Owen Powell
why'd they have to make it so fucking desaturated?
Chase Jones
