What are some other franchises that pander to a small loud minority?

what small loud minority does Pokemon pander too
Camden Campbell
I'm assuming he's referring to "gen 1ers"
the people who prefer red/yellow/blue over the games that followed
Thomas Scott
Presumably people that like Kanto
He's a salty zoomer that doesn't know Kanto is by far the peak of pokemon popularity. Sorry you were born after 2000 OP, maybe in another life you can be one of the elite
Justin Rivera
when you say "small loud minority" do you mean the gen 1 minority who over a billion people playing pokemon go? Is that the "small loud minority" you're talking about, user?
there is no other easier outing than people complaining about gen 1 love for Pokémon, it is the original, and the one that started it all. You zoomers -wish- you knew how big Pokémon was back in Gen one. You couldn't walk down the street without somebody talking about it. There is a reason it is the only thing "normies" and most want, because everything, see Sword and Shield, is terrible. Stop being naughty, zoom zoom.
Anthony Martin
based and red pilled, unironically
Kevin White
look at those pokemon
soul
Adam Diaz
Maybe you should be passionate about the pokemon you like instead of being a whiny bitch and they'll appeal to you more
Grayson Cooper
user I started with Red and I'm sick of the constant Kanto dick sucking. The 3DS games couldn't build their own region because they kept stopping to go boy that Kanto sure is great huh, much better then this shithole.
Nathan Carter
>tfw zoomers don't know when every single fucking person was rocking around with pokemon cards, kids, teens, adults, everyone
it was like pokemon go but on crack
Ayden Wood
BASED
Dominic Jackson
We all know gen 1 was best gen so btfo zoomer
Jayden Campbell
>popular = good
Owen Foster
He's right, you know.
Luis Stewart
>small loud minority
I don't think you really know what Pokémon's main audience is. They pander to a silent majority and the sales show it.
Owen Adams
I really wish they hadn't just shit out the Let's Go games. Imagine an FF7R caliber remake of Kanto by a competent developer.
Jace Bailey
This. Like it or not, Kanto brings in the big bucks. It’s the most popular out of all the generations, and that won’t change for a long time, if it ever will.
Charles Williams
>It's a loud minority!
>W-wait no, it's a big percentage of fans b-but that's still bad!
Pick and stick to a narrative before starting to shitpost
Eli Perry
Imagine if it actually tried with gym and dungeon design. Even Platinum changed shit up from D and P.
Nathaniel Clark
>FF7R
Bentley Cruz
Imagine being born after the 90's Pokemania
Hunter Edwards
>mfw I see some zoomie
>DUDE GEN 4 HAD SO MUCH FUCKING SOUL... IT WAS THE BEST ONE... GEN 4 AND 5.. THE MUSICCC
top fucking kek
Eli Thompson
WHich is funny because Kanto is supposed to be a backwater region
Xavier Perry
GO has pokemon up to gen 4 but okay
Luke Miller
the original push was all pokemon gen one based, they only got added much after
see the original trailers etc.
Robert Davis
I have no clue what you mean by couldn't build their own region, it doesn't share a single location with kanto, nor a single character. France and Hawaii are as different from Kanto as you can get.
In fact if you want to talking about selling out identity to other regions, then you should be complaining about how Looker can't stay in gen 4 and has to be in every game since then.
Brandon Torres
Didn't have muh billion downloads then
Jayden Fisher
kanto fans are not Pokemon fans. They are casuals that only care for Kanto.
Jordan Roberts
still used as the original push and got it there, in one day it hit 1m downloads, this only got more and more until gen 2/3/4/ were even spoken about
You mean the original fans? Stop coping that you're one of the fake new ones and projecting because you have to deal with gamefreak adding silly things like new pokemon forms and "z" moves, only for sword and shield to completely remove them next game and add "giant" pokemon kek, like shaking a pair of car keys at a toddler
Jason Sanders
NEW MYSTERY DUNGEON WHEN!?
Brody Flores
But user, forms were added in fucking Gen 1 with this faggot.
Jeremiah Morales
young children
Samuel Ross
surfing pikachu a cute little fatty though so it's allowed
Jonathan Sullivan
>gets to completely fuck over his weakness type
Yeah, nah
Isaiah Carter
Imagine if they didn't waste dev time on a game that already got a remake and said remake is already brought up to date with basic rom hacks.
Juan Sullivan
you can do that if you have a surfboard, it's the rules
Josiah Moore
why can't they just make an new groundbreaking pokemon game
it really isn't difficult
they have all the time, man power, and money they need to do it
Brody Edwards
Well, Yea Forums? With all the backlash Sword and Shield are getting do you think Gamefreak will pass the torch and let another company make a Pokemon game? Colliseum and Gale of Darkness were received very well. Not sure why it hasn't happened yet since GF clearly can't handle the hardware.
At this point I feel like literally any dev could make a better game. What if GF designed the mons and characters and the other guys made the world and the engine?
Lucas Lee
You know why, user.
They don't need too. All they need to do, is make new shitty pokes, a couple of cute waifus to hide the shit game and cause fake hype "LOOK ATTHIS WAIFU WOWOAWH" and it'll sell millions. Just the cursed series. It will never be what you want it to be in your head. As a friend I say this, just let it go. It's like holding onto a cancer.
Bentley Johnson
Take it from a Sonic fan who gets shit game after shit game, nips will never cave. They will never, ever give the rights to somebody else. It's just the way they choose to be. It's like a honor system over there. Any other dev could, but they won't.
Christopher Mitchell
>genius sonority only got to make 2 actual rpg pokemon games
>they've been making nothing but shovel ware and puzzle shit for the past 15 years
Logan Powell
don't they care about their reputation? everyone thinks they're lazy fucks
it honestly baffles me how the pokemon franchise has been handled the past 5 or 6 years
Daniel Campbell
It doesn't matter, when Pokémon Go made them over 3-4billion. It doesn't matter, it's the casuals, now. It isn't "ours" so to speak. None of it matters, user. It will NEVER be what you've got in your head. They don't need it to be. They can just get by doing this.
Jaxon Ortiz
i have faith for the future but pokemon will be shit for a few more years
it's already getting to a boiling point with gamefreaks idiocy
even the casuals are getting annoyed
