Could any of you name a practical reason Game Freak wouldn't announce Z between now and February 29th?
If you want a summer release, we need the announcement by February...
They could announce it fucking whenever. My guess is later this month, X and Y were announced in January 2013 after being teased in December 2012.

I'm probably wrong though, and we have absoluetly no way of knowing when it will be announced. They planned on ORAS being announced at E3 for a November release, but they announced it earl after the fucky shareholders meeting and they might want to do that with Z. That of course means that /vp/ will continue to be a shithole until June.

It's too Unlikely.
>>24933896
Because NX isn't been shown until E3,
Most likely, It'll be announced on Feb 27th to celebrate the 20th anniversary along with Red and Blue on VC
If not than it'll just be on a random day from march until may, e3 at the absolute latest
Either way, it'll be a Fall release

It would take attention away from their Picross DLC
Fall release.

F2P games are better for generating revenue in terms of investment/earnings, same reason horror movies are now found footage bullshit almost universally, it's cheaper and still generates a fuckton of money.

Why the fuck would Z be an NX game and not a 3DS game when X and Y were 3DS
>>24933896
Game freak wants to wait until the VC games have released before announcing another Pokemon game. They probably think most people would be willing to grasp at anything Pokemon after the disappointment that was OR/AS.
Tfw they're right

Maybe the negative feedback has pushed back the deveopmemt of Z a couple of months. Just like Metroid Fed Force disappeared from the face of Earth after the unfortunate E3 trailer.more likely GameFreak's staff took a long, paid vacation as a pat on the back for the "excellent" job on ORAS ;_;

The boxart will probably have Perfect Zygrade desu

Yeah, overall in the audience, XY and ORAS were received well. Just because everyone here is a bunch of whiny little shits doesn't mean it is bad.
The anime is hinting a big appearance of Perfect Zygarde in March, so the big announcement could easily happen in February. But would it be so clever to announce it on the same day the VC titles are released? A lot of fans would lose interest in Red, Blue, Green or Yellow and would hype for Z. Maybe they also save their money for Z instead. The best thing would be a big annoucement in January followed by a long period of nothing like they did with XY back in 2013.
>>24936097
There was no negative feedback except these previous generation fanboy whining.
>>24933896
Because they're taking their sweet-ass time with it, as they should.

I think the RGBY rerelease is geared towards adults. Think, children aren't gonna be interested in a game thats limited in color and lacks their favorite Gen 2-6 Pokemon.
Kids aren't gonna buy one of those dam 2DS's in Japan just for that rerelease. Come on... Those 2DS's are purely collectors items...
