I agree with both of you in a way. Sun/Moon obviously isn't going to go on an iphone but they could sell red/blue for 29.99 on the apple store and make probably more than they did on the initial release of the games. This doesn't dilute the value of their IP, if anything it gets people who aren't tuned into the games industry asking 'hey I wonder if there's a new pokemon I can try'

No one would buy Pokemon Red and blue for $30 on iPhone. No one would buy ANYTHING for $30 on iPhone.

A lot of people went and bought real Pokemon games after being disappointed by Pokemon Go.

Yes, the same people that never stopped paying attention to the mainline games in the first place.

Phones can be cool if the games are suited to the nature of the device. We played one where everyone is on their own phone with a different spaceship control panel, and you have to shout at each other which levers and buttons they need to press based on instructions only you can see. Simple touch controls, but leveraging many different screens isolated from one another.

If it's a gameboy type RPG or platformer with touch buttons, not interested. If it's an infinite runner/bird throwing/jem stacking game, still not interested. But there's at least some creativity here and there.

they could have made tens, heck maybe even twenties of millions, if people had bought red and blue on iphone instead of buying 3ds. poor foresight

They don't have to pick one or the other. They can do both. But lets instead focus on the least important part of what I said, the arbitrary dollar amount

We're all frustrated with the NX. Mostly because as far as we know it doesn't even exist. I guess this is how creationists think atheists feel about God.

This leak is confirmed by my sources. Also, the NX moniker isn't actually the name, but the suffix for the device. "Nintendonx" is the name of Nintendo's revolutionary new device, pronounced "nin-ten-donks".

I had an artist(me) collaborate with this VERIFIED source to create a rendering of the new system. This is *exactly* how it will look, minus a few differences in colour schemes, obviously.

August has come and gone and we have yet to hear anything about the NX. We already know that about the N. Mircrosoft; we already know about the Playstation Neo and the Playstation 4 slim --all confirmed for this year -- but we don’t even know about the NX coming out in March of next year. Ever since mentioned 17 months ago by the late Iwata there have just been speculation and fan service on what the NX actually is. Fast forward to the year late 2016 we still do not have definitive news what the system (or systems) is. I am beginning to think Nintendo believes that “Less is More” and that people will get more excited over a product if you never mention it. I however am getting quite annoyed by Nintendo and that method of selling. It would be nice once in a while that Nintendo release some information regarding their own system -- NX. It’s werid that we need to have a Dragon Quest game or some Sonic game to be reminded of the actual system when Nintendo themselves for some odd reason completely ignore it. The only games that are mentioned for NX is a Sonic game, some DQ game, Zelda, and maybe Final Fantasy. Nintendo themselves never confirmed it besides Zelda but in my opinion just further the frustration.

So far this year we have seen countless disappointments from Nintendo. A underwhelming Starfox, a Metroid more hated than Other M, a Paper Mario that will probably poo poo more on the series. Are we expected to dissovle these past mistakes from Nintendo for some “refreshing, epic” news regarding the NX? I can’t cheer for a company if that company doesn’t acknowledge that I am here and that I am alive, and waitng.

The NX will include Kinect like voice commands.

"Letsa go!" turns on the system, "Itsa me!" logs you in to the Nintendo network, and "I'm da winner!" brings up your new Nintendo Awards list so you can count your sick gamerscore.
