    USUM last pok?mon game for 3DS?

    Will USUM be the last pokemon game for the 3ds or will they hold up one more until late 2018 early 2019 when Pokemon for Switch comes and then they bail on us.I think USUM may be the last Pokemon game for the 3DS.What do you all think?
     
    wouldn't be suprised. The fact they announced pokemon switch so early makes me think it's gonna come sooner rather then later. Of course, they could pull a smash 4 and release it on 3ds and switch but idk how that would work.
     
    I think that will most likely be the case. It's kind of exciting and yet sobering at the same time; even though the Switch is essentially a handheld and home console combined into one machine, USUM may just be the last core series games to be on a standalone handheld. 20 years of being a handheld series and they're moving on... i think I'm gonna cry...

    Here's a question that's popped into my head regarding the Switch game... since it's a different system, I wonder if they'll continue with making dual games or(pardon the pun) switch to making a singular game? I would think they're going to stick to dual games since trading version exclusives and stuff is what makes Pokemon for what it is, but I'm still curious.
     
    Pinkie-Dawn told me that Nintendo does plan to continue supporting the 3DS, but I can see where Wings is coming from in that Nintendo may only focus on the Switch due to it being a hybrid of home console and handheld.

    Also, I feel moving the main series to Switch may be a step backwards since 3DS is two screens and the Switch is only single screen.
     
    Since it was hinted at that there would be a pokemon game for the switch, I would not be surprised if it would be the last pokemon game for 3ds, though anything could happen.
     
    Likely. The next pokemon would gen 8 on the Switch. USUM are the final gen 7 games and the final 3DS main series pokemon games.

    They don't put two remakes on the same handheld. ORAS is the remakes for 3DS. DP remakes can be on the Switch.
     
    I really dont like the idea of using the switch. 3ds was the option in my opinion

    Now I doubt it, but I'm pretty sure Remakes are considered main series titles, so they could possibly make DP remakes on switch, but I think we'll get a new region first. As Alexander18 said, they tend to do remakes on different systems (although we'll see what happens with B/W since they were on DS as well).

    I am certain USUM are the last 3DS games. If they are doing a main game for Switch then that pretty much confirms they are moving onto the Switch after USUM is released.

    BW are not remakes though. They were put on the DS since the DS is still useable and popular.

    I never said BW were remakes, I'm saying that the remakes of BW is gonna be interesting, since they tend to do remakes 2 systems after the original game, + you got BW2 which means if they continue the pattern, switch is gonna have 3 remakes.

    What? 3 remakes?! Sorry but that is not happening. We only get one remake per hand held. Third versions and sequels don't count as remakes. USUM are not remakes.

    uhhh pokemon for switch was confirmed ages ago
    https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2...ch_is_due_2018_or_later_but_thats_no_surprise

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.th...-nintendo-switch-game-freak-announced-e3-2017

    etc

    highly doubt they would release a pokemon game in between USUM and 2018
     
    It probably is going to be on the switch after USUM is released. They probably won't make a gen between gen 8, on the switch, and USUM. Gen 4 remakes probably would come after gen 8.

    again, not saying they're remakes. I'm saying idk how they will make remakes of those games.

    What? They would remake BW the same way as the other remakes.
