do you think its wrong that regular pokmeon games are only on DS than WII?

on the WII , pokemon is great , but isnt there will ever be a regular pokemon game , first diamond/pearl, then platinum then HG/SS and now blackfor 2011< and all of them are only on the DS , do this piss anyone else than me off ??

Well it doesn't piss me off, however that might be because I have grown out of Pokemon....

No, because Pokemon belongs on handhelds. I wouldn't mind Pokemon Stadium though, those were alot of fun IMO.

How is it wrong? The developers have always made Pokemon for handhelds, this is nothing new..

There are many things wrong with the Pokemon franchise, but that isn't one of them. Keep the games on handhelds.

I thought that too till I bought SoulSliver, Pokemon works so so well on the DS, I'm not sure I'd buy a wii one.

The DS needs a system seller and that is Pokemon. It is strictly a business move, and a smart one at that.

What's wrong is that the Wii doesn't have a Pokemon MMO.GamerForca

Pokemon is best suited for portables. Pocket monsters, pocket system. Makes sense to me.

No problem with the games staying on handhelds. But a new Pokemon Snap would be kind of cool.

There's nothing wrong with Pokemon being a portable-oriented franchise. The games are just better fits on portables in a number of ways. A major part of Pokemon's draw has always been able to carry the game with you on the go and be able to interact with different people in the ways of trading, battling, and other ways. It's the level of interaction can't be duplicated on a home gaming system of any sort, much less the Wii.

I'm sure it's not impossible to create a full-scale Pokemon game on the Wii, but even if that was ever to happen, the overall experience wouldn't have the same potential as it does now on the DS. Therefore, it's probably best that the formula stays the way it is.

Pocket Monsters. I cant put the Wii in my pocket or play it when Im on the pot. :lol: I do think it's a crime that we havent had a true sequel to pokemon stadium developed by Hal Labratory to compliment the handheld releases.

It doesn't bother me as I do own a DS and a Wii.

Pocket Monsters

That it hasn't appeared on a console in it's classic form shows a lack of confidence in the game by the publishers. I'm beginning to believe in the message that they're sending: the Pokemon series is a one-trick pony, forever condemned to small-scale productions to match the small-scale imaginations of the developers.

As a gamer, I do find it weird that the consoles can't have one normal Pokemon game. But from a business point of view, it's a handheld cash cow that means insta-sell of Nintendo handhelds.Kenny789

If you use Zelda as an example, you have to acknowledge that it exists successfuly on boht handhelds and consoles - what's to say Pokemon can't do the same?so_hai

Well, I'll admit that it sucks that there isn't a true Pokemon game for Wii, but the DS needs that exclusive game to boost sales.
