    Ok? It was released as DS game when the console was on its last legs and people were ready for 3D.

      Frick you. The 3ds is a piece of fricking shit. I've never hated a handheld before it. It feels like shit to use and the 3d is terrible and can damage your eyes.

        I was playing XY at launch. Im sure you were too. Everyone was hyped for the first 3D pokemon game in XY.

        If anything these sales charts just show that the DS/3DS wasn't as good for pokemon sales as the switch is.

        I think gens 8 and 9 are the worst just from a quality standpoint.

          X and Y was why I bounced off the games. I just play gens 1 through 5. I think the transition to 3d was done poorly.

            you picked a good time to quit modern Pokémon. Gen 7 would have made you seethe. It made me quit modern Pokemon.

                if Gen 1-6 are games for children: Gen 7 is a game for babies. there’s like a tutorial at the very beginning of the game (trainer school?) that spans several hours. Even when they let you off to explore: most routes are straight lines (not unlike how final fantasy 13 is a hallway simulator) with maybe a very short detour to get a single item. the gameplay loop feels like this: dialogue, more dialogue, tutorial, dialogue, cutscene, dialogue, a short route with 1-2 battles, dialogue, rinse and repeat. It never gets better. And the island trials are a joke. So many people were praising them for finally getting rid of gyms but gyms are strictly better (island trials are baby mini games, a couple of which made you battle some easy wild Pokémon). The game was so boring I wanted to drop it but I couldn’t because of buyer’s remorse.
                Last modern Pokémon game I ever bought.

      If it was a 3DS game it would have sold a lot less, the DS was way more popular.
      Being playable on both, old and new hardware boosted the sales.

    And BW couldn't sell on the install base of the freaking DS while XY is actually the reason its system got off from a bad launch

    Funny that you say that. I saw Verlisify video about the announcement of Legends Z-A and his complaint was, "Why are they making another Legends game when the last sold poorly?" His words.
