New types and *GASP* 2 more Pokemon at once during battle with each game. It's like you get a new hat with your next Malibu Stacey!

just look at one piece. oh god one piece what have they done to you.

same with naruto, while it never looked that good, shippuuden when full lazy mode until the infamous Pain episode, where they obviously hired a studio which can animate well, but neither knows the source material, nor is able to draw.

lol I didn't even mention "aimed at kids" anywhere. more like "aimed at people who like to buy the same stuff over and over again, like new mario bros". oh wait those ARE kids, who else would do that.

Maybe not. But maybe its time to move on.

And what does the creator get for it? That's right. NOTHING but 5 minute fame and a waste of time he could have spent with friends or something.

Remember when Giana Sisters was considered a ripoff and the developer got sued?

Because Nintendo has been such a disappointment for a long time. I was a huge Nintendo fan back then.

"Yes, Pokemon X & Y looks excellent, visually." Just no, it could have been so much more years ago, especially as an MMO type game. Now it just repeats it's design and is STILL technically behind all other games and not really appealing. Just because it's Pokemon you can't deny the fact that it has been the same since…

The Syndicate reboot should have been more like this. Still liked it.

I think its more like that: Kotaku owes an article to whoever does art, instead of picking certain artists (friends, sponsors *cough*).

The author figured out the phenomenon of growing up and not being impressed by any game anymore, it will be forgettable no matter how epic it is. It's called the "I miss the awesomeness that was the 90s" syndrome.

I said GAMES. I didnt mean this particular game because I don´t like it! It's sad that people have to buy Wonderful 101 on a Nintendo console because there is literally NOTHING ELSE you can play on it. Except mmmaaybe "Implying Its Still New Rehash Bros 134".

damn, how did I not hear about kentucky route zero yet

I guess they wont go the EA or Hasbro way. Too much bad publicity. They should have financed the project and published it though since it promises success.

You actually WANT Nintendo franchises, if they even exist anymore, to be ruined?
Wow, not I understand what Nintendo is doing the whole time, their fans went completely down the drain and actually request garbage.

I hope nobody buys this. I want his games to be released on a Sony console again, where they belong.

Too original for everyone here to handle.

I only regret knowing Penny Arcade.

i agree haunter was friggin cool, never used the ghost pokemon though.

cum on dude.
