    See this is where you ignored the last part of my comment. If you hadn’t you’d get why the Harley example makes absolutely no sense

    Nintendo could make some pretty small QOL adjustments that would make older fans very happy and not really make much of a difference at all to younger fans.

    I never suggested to make their games more mature. There’s plenty to do that’s still friendly to their target demographic that would still keep the older demographics engaged

    I’m blind in that case because I don’t see anything that contradicts the Harley example in your statement.

      Patients don’t protect small inventors anymore. They are now just systems to protect large corporations from competition. Patients are instead now weaponized against local businesses and small inventors. We need major world wide patient reform.

        A simple demonstration of this are the Yugioh and Digimon franchises which consistently appeal to a wide age range.

        A toggleable hard mode is really that much to ask for?

        A menu option to disable exp share?

        Fuck man just give me another pokeathlon

        I don’t see how any of these optional things would ruin the expirence, be expensive to implement, or are that much to ask for.

        Hell I’d love to be able to go into buildings again, but I guess that would ruin the games irrevocably

          Not to Nintendo or Gamefreak. They care more about their next customer, not their current customer.

          You’re completely missing/ingoring mine and the other user’s point.

          Sure, they might focus on a certain demographic as theur customer, but that’s not what actually makes them money. They’re not paying attention to reality and it’s going to bite them in the ass

            Maybe when I said they didn’t need “radical changes” you thought I meant they shouldn’t change the games? Because I meant they wouldn’t have to make any radical changes to their current products to make them more appealing to their older fans. I’m saying they could keep basically all the changes that make the modern games modern and add some simple things like menu options for difficulty and maybe some optional content similar to old events (contests, pokeathelon, etc.) or a really a long list of small tweaks that dobt change the modern games much at all. Just enough change to make them more appealing and challenging for those that want that.

            That could be the confusion.

                That just isn’t true. Pokemon never became unpopular, but only had some lesser years. I have a 13 yo half brother and pokemon has been an ever popular thing in his whole school.

                    I think your auto-correct has gone wrong; patients rather than patents 3 times.

                    Totally agree with your point though. I’d extend it to include copyright reform as well as patents; intellectual property rights are being abused globally and used as a way to abuse citizens.

                              Pokemon, as a franchise, is worth it to monopolize.

                                Has it ever bit them in the ass?

                                  Nintendo doesnt care about the things you care about, and never will.

                                  That’s exactly why Palworld has done so well. Nintendo/Gamefreak left that demographic untouched and ripe for someone to come along and cater to them. Nintendo decided that instead of competing for that demographic they would rather try to use the legal system to beat Palworld.

                                  My point here is that this guy has supported Nintendo for 40 fucking years and now has finally stopped despite Nintendo always having been the way they are.

                                  At no point have they been a good company, and likely, will never be a good company.

                                  But now, after spending literal decades shipping the brand, he has stopped.

                                  Its honestly hilarious.

                                    how about actually innovate your games, instead allowing Masuda to make slop after slop. from switch on, thier games largely degenerated in quality compared to previous generations.

                                        i feel like alot of the current customers are milleneals who grew up with pokemon, at least in the competitive scene, its all grown ass people fighting over a kids game, and scalping it.

                                          i remember pokemon kinda fell off for a few years, before coming back with black and white.
