@Yorumi We've gotten steady releases (doesn't matter if you like them or not as not every game is going to be to the taste of every person) we have pretty solid marketing campaign along with a psuedo esports push and it isn't even E3 yet. I would say that is pretty "committed", I'm not sure what else you are looking for?

As far as the whole trusting or not trusting a company I'll leave that to the people that are emotionally invested in a company's product offering. Why did black and white 2 exist? There is no reason to see this as a lack of commitment on either Nintendo's or Game Freak's side. I see it as a stopgap to capitalize on the Sun and Moon hype and that GF is most likely going to put a new gen on the switch and build assets for the system from the ground up. I suppose if you are expecting the switch to be a higher res 3ds system then yes I can see your frustration (I think it is misplaced but I can at least see it). Perhaps because I view the switch as a portable successor to the WiiU/home console that I'm not really bothered by the current announcement (Indeed I'm stoked for Pokken DX...new fighters! but I'm also a fighting game fan so there is my bias) as I would rather have a game that looks like a console game. We have Zelda, MK8D (it might be a port but it looks great) so I would like to see games of that graphical caliber. Considering GF's lack of console track record I don't think it is unreasonable to expect a pokemon game in a year or two, as opposed to now. Plus quite frankly GF is in an ultimatum situation; they will have to eventually put Pokemon on the switch they don't have any other option, so why not just wait for it? I'm sure that someone will cite MHXXU going to switch but GF doesn't straddle hardware like that. They may remake a game later but they don't straddle during an active gen. (Also while MHXXU looks better than the 3ds version obviously, it still looks bad considering the capabilities of the switch...I'm still going to get it but I can see GF not wanting to rush a game to production just to say it is on switch.)

@roy130390 It is a swan song. GF is cranking out any left over ideas using existing assets. I never said development starts after a system is released nor did I imply it but it still takes time for new assets to be built if they are going to make this a game that is for the switch and not just a 3ds port. With wiiU games that are ported it isn't a big deal because they are already HD console games, but if you just slap a 3ds game with an uprez and texture replacement, yes it will look nicer, but it will still look bad compared to other games. I'm not saying pokemon stresses the systems it is on but it does tend to be one of the nicer looking and performing games on whatever system it occupies. Like I said I expect that GF is going to put a new gen as a switch exclusive (and maybe a few remakes...I guess black and white is next? I don't keep up with the remakes even though I have a few.) it is similar to how FE got a new game for 3ds (again modifying existing assets) and how the switch has one in development but it is going to be a while before we see anything.

Breathe ya'll the world has not ended we shall see Pokemon on switch eventually.
