The sad reality is that even if TPC barely promotes SV it will still sell 20 million copies like its nothing...

Dunno, Scarlet Violet hype seems kinda meh among normies

It comes out before black Friday. It has Christmas right after. They're going to wait till the ,ast month to promote the shit out of it

>people see new pokemon game on shelves
>they buy regardless of quality

anything with the pokemon logo is free money

You DO realise that they also have to play nice with Nintendo and work alongside their reveals and launches, yeah? That this shit is curated not just to appear when TPC give the light, but when Nintendo WANT them to push it too?
Of course you don't, you're another zoomie fucker having a meltdown because they showed they have a game coming in February and it's now mid-July and you don't know everything about it. Fuck knows how you'd handle being treated like we Zelda fans are. We ain't seen squat since the delay message and we were on such a drought before THAT, the 5 new seconds of footage thrown in as a mea culpa have tided the youtubers over till today.

pokemon doesn't care about what nintendo does anymore lmao, they even did their own style of directs called presents

The core games have sold almost 300m units since 1996, the spin-offs 70m. Slapping the pokémon title on everything doesn't automatically make it sell. That's why Ishihara's been doing remakes, mobile games and throwbacks for Switch, because there's no point trying to polish a turd.

And people wonder why new games keep getting rushed out. Players have zero patience, and Masuda even said this shit himself in interviews. Can't be tided over by simple fun like PLA or New Snap, oh no. "WHERE'S THE LEAKS?!". Gotta have it all.

Pocket Monsters is still funded by Nintendo, you drooling fucker. It goes back to when they started this project called "Capsule Monsters" thought up by a young man called Tajiri after doing enough schlep wor for Nintendo, they gained a measure of trust. Nothing's changed, except TPC has taken on more and more of Nintendo's work. but as Nintendo still wants to use Pokémon to bolster its dividends each year for its investors, it hasn't given up rights to publishing the game. Which means they still give them the cash each project cycle to make the new games they make.

user, there's obviously advertising parity. Wait till xenoblade 3 is out

SWSH sold 24 million copies and became the 2nd highest selling Pokémon games of all time behind Red and Blue, that game was the most hated by fans of all time pre-release and post-release...

But normies were extremely hyped for that one, while they seem kinda lukewarm on SV

Because it hasn't really been advertised. Wait till a month before, its all you'll fucking hear, like with BDSP

SWSH had the "OMG MAINLINE POKEMON ON CONSOLE?!?!!?" push, SV doesnt have that
Itll sell well Im sure, but wont be a record breaker like swoosh

actually SV has the "OMG FULLY OPEN WORLD POKEMON GAME?!!!"

What it does have however is the fully open world coop game shit people eat up.

>FULLY OPEN WORLD POKEMON GAME
Im pretty sure they said it wont be

do you live under a rock? the games were confirmed open world when the game was revealed, go to their website and see for yourself

That was pla
