POKEMON GEN 6 ANNOUNCED

[Tellis]

Not to mention that a 3DS still doesn't have the same draw as THE BIG SCREEN. There's no denying that a console built game is going to have prettier models and environments than the 3DS game. Also, X/Y still has the weird circle thing going on with their battles, whereas the Stadium games always put an emphasis on putting a wide shot on the entire battlefield (heck, even PBR had moves that damaged the environment, though it wasn't quite as cool as it was hyped up to be, haha). There's a lot in the presentation. And I know personally, because I participate in a local tournament, that we'd love a new Stadium-like game just to be able to more easily show off the finals matches.

Also, a lot of what made Stadium cool was that there was stuff beyond just straight up Cup Battles or fighting friends, like the Gym Leader Castle, Mini-Games, and all sorts of special rules and whatnot. Also, we can always keep dreaming that they'll bring back Rental Pokemon or something else that allows People without the game to battle. There's a lot of reasons beyond just "hey it's 3D" that people would want a new Stadium.


... but I would also be totally down for a Pokemon fighter so long as it's good. I mean, if you look at the clip at the end, there's a Fighting-type fist (from the TCG) incorporated into what looks like a tournament logo. So like, who knows?
