>Agreed, it's more of an issue wtih Gamefreak though as Nintendo does not develop the games internally.
Nta, but I just hold TPC as a whole accountable for Pokemon's current status. The drive to release merch and shit was always a plague, but at least prior to Gen 7 or so, the games could still come out and run well on their intended systems. Now, Gen 10 is on the horizon (30th anny next year), and despite developing on some of Nintendo's powerful systems, we get ass performance and graphics I'd see on the PS2. Mind you, I love how games like Jak 1 looked, but the fact that I'm paying 70 bones for future Pokemon games (I do not see Gen 10 getting a Switch 1 version, Prime 4 is the last big Nintendo game for it) means the TPC needs to put the games as the priority instead of merch and the TCG.
