>>24559522GF can't take Pokemon anywhere else anyways. If they fucked off to make phone shovelware, every studio in Japan would line up at the chance to take the reins of Pokemon. Since they're stuck, they may always make damn sure the platform they're on doesn't eventually die off because they wanted like a million extra sales that one year.
>>24559560The most stuff like Zelda has ever sold was like ORAS numbers at best. I don't see any reason not to put your best foot forward when you have the option. If you don't have a game ready fine, but if you do, why would you not use it in Nintendo's current situation? Maybe you lose a few million sales with that first game, but ultimately if your platform takes off and doesn't limp at the starting gate like the 3DS or Wii U, you're gonna make it all back and then some in the long run. Unlike Sony/Microsoft, their marketing is like non-existent, so that only leaves you with one option if you don't want no sales again.
