There's no need for compensation, nor do we need anything for it.
Not everybody thinks the same way you do, so please don't say "we". I think they should throw in another event exclusive, like Mew or Jirachi as an apology, it costs them nothing.
Obviously it's not cancelled, I'm just treating as if it is at this point.
I decided to do this today as well. And by that I mean I put X and Y in a drawer and went back to Gen 5 and 4.
I don't know if I'm the minority here, but I don't like X and Y that much to begin with, and with Pokémon Bank and Transfer in limbo, that means I can no longer work on my National Pokédex in those games (which I like to do entirely by myself) . So until the bank is released, these games are pretty much worthless to me.
I just went to the official Facebook page of Pokémon and looked the comments to the recent posts. I love this one:
Pokémon said:
The Legendary Pokémon Zygarde has officially been revealed! [...] Have you met Zygarde in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y yet?
A subscriber said:
I have met Zygarde. Have YOU released Poke Bank?
432 likes, well deserved. Some other comments to other posts just say "Pokébank" and have top numbers of likes. At this point it seems like Nintendo is deliberately ignoring the outcry of the fandom. Either that or... I hate to throw the word "incompetent" around, but... yeah.
I also see people creating petitions, which aren't getting many signatures. And while this one:
We want the App to come as soon as Possible! is plain ridiculous, I wholeheartedly aree with this one:
Make Poké Transporter a completely free service that can be used without subscribing to Pokémon Bank, but not for the same reason: at this point, I'm no longer annoyed at the feature being paid, I'm annoyed at Pokémon Transfer not being released on the grounds that it depends on Pokémon Bank, while there was
absolutely no need to make Pokémon Transfer an online-only feature (I already explained how it could work offline in another post, I'm not repeating myself here).
