Nintendo is one of the three interested parties of Pokémon. The relationship between Pokémon and Nintendo consoles is Ironclad and decades, and Pokémon is probably one of the two largest brands on these consoles, next to Mario. So why does Pokémon present a live broadcast on this fair day Pokémon, without one mention of the officially announced Nintendo console, Switch 2?
It’s not like Nintendo and Pokémon Company could pretend that two presentation stars – freshly announced Battler for many players Pokémon ChampionsAND Pokémon Legends: For – does not come to Switch 2. Champions “Family of Nintendo Switch consoles” is developed, as well as mobile and there is no release date. It would be strange if it was not at least an intergenerational edition. For It is at the end of 2025, and switch 2 is confirmed for the release of 2025, so it can be reasonably confirmed for the up-to-date console without jumping from the gun on the day of the premiere.
Pokémon Presents is a great deal for a community that is strictly, but not Exactly According to hardcore fans of Nintendo, so live broadcast was a great time to give the up-to-date Nintendo system with some of its most significant customers. It was also a way of low risk to keep Flame Switch 2 in a long gap between its slim unveiling of January and the main information pride scheduled for April 2. It seems to be a lost opportunity.
There are several reasons why Nintendo could decide to droughty the powder. One is bureaucratic (and Nintendo can be a very bureaucratic company) and the other presentation.
From the planning point of view, it could simply be a case of two separate PR maps that simply cannot be equalized. Considering the general silence around Switch 2 from its disclosure, Nintendo clearly intends to keep the powder to droughty pressure for the great April and probably properly made the partners. But Pokémon Day cannot be moved, and live gifts, with several immense ads. Nintendo could make an exception for Pokémon Company – which is again partly the owner – but it could have caused that the noses of some partners did not become common and even annoyed their own Nintendo marketing teams. Pity.
However, there is another reason why Nintendo may not want Champions AND For To join the game without Untitled Mario Kart as the official, first batch 2 more games. For will be released on the original switch i Champions He will probably do it too; Even if not, it will be available on smartphones. These are not the most contemporary, individual editions of Switch 2, with a visualization. (Although the last Pokémon game, Scarlet AND PurpleIt worked so poorly on the switch that the Game Freak programmer engine could clearly employ part of the additional power of the up-to-date machine).
It can complicate nintendo news around the 2nd switch, he presents it as a more brilliant, stronger switch, as the name itself-to start showing graphically elementary games between the generation, such as For or multi -platform mobile titles such as Champions But at this early stage. Suddenly, technology enthusiasts would spill into the material and try to assess which machine he was acting on, or they are looking for evidence of technologies such as DLSS in action. After all, the Pokémon community could exclude to know that these two editions would be available on the up-to-date console, maybe ultimately suppressed emotions for everyone.
So Nintendo, as often happens, chose a protected option and asked Pokémon to pretend that nothing was happening. Certainly not the up-to-date Nintendo Handheld Console in a multi -story line that brought Pokémon to the world. Not to see anything here. Move.
