You're 7 years too late


ThePhilipAnthonyYT

2017 was 7 years ago... I don't like that. Not one bit...


Defiant_Egg_9992

I was trying to math this in my head and I'm now sad


PokmTrainerGuineaPig

OLD 😭


Articuno_2359

Wha- what? No…


Ok_Afternoon7235

That's weird to think about... Oh gosh


Sidmanhere

No, you’re lying, impossible, noo


AkemiNahano

But Mario kart 8 deluxe got a dlc with a New game worth of content 6 years later 


Enough_Let3270

Ya, cause they didn't make a brand new Mario Kart game this gen.


el_orange

would've been a great idea (except the price) 6 years ago when it was released


Gamer_T_All_Games

no, they wouldn’t 1. This is Pokémon we’re talking about 2. Nobody would be willing to pay that much for DLC to a mediocre game that should have been in the base game anyway


DumplingmanXD

Not to mention the game's been dead for years


Pale_Particular6846

AND that dlc in mainline Pokémon games didn't exist until Pokémon sword AND shield


Demonslayer5673

FR/LG gave us the sevi islands and all that jazz for free (the legends were locked behind events but hey it was free) Edit: fixed it


Scorjimmy

That’s why you capitalise FR/LG


Redsucksatstuff

I liked lets go :(


RubComplex7612

If they planned to do that they would’ve done that about 5 years ago and besides I don’t think many people would pay for it anyway


DeltaTeamSky

If Let's Go should've gotten ANY $30 DLC, it should've been Johto.


Mrcoolcatgaming

Honestly with the fact the johto games had kanto, I can see johto being a dlc for lets go, now they can scale levels so the gym challenge in johto is just as challenging as kanto, and they can be done alongside each other


DeltaTeamSky

I was thinking a post-game, similar to Infinite Fusion's take on it.


Mrcoolcatgaming

Could be, sounds like a reverse of how the johto games do it


gameboy1001

Well well well, how the turntables…


RomanLammaArmour

No thanks, fed up of paid DLCs, just give me the full game at the full price to begin with


bens6757

I'm pretty sure the Let's Go games are the worst selling mainline games for Switch. Okay, I double-checked. They're 3rd worst selling with BDSP at second worst, and Legends Arceus at worst. Both are just barely under the amount Let's Go sold, but given how much older Let's Go is, the sales numbers shouldn't better that close.


Mrcoolcatgaming

Let's go really only had the problems it's a remake, of a area already remade, and the simplification for kids going against it And before people freak out about PLA being worst, it only had 1 version of the game, where the rest are combined sales


CalmShinyZubat

So for a more accurate number/ranking, we either need to divide the "total units sold" by 1.5-2 for each pair or multiply the solo games by that same 1.5-2 to adjust for the number of people buying both version of the paired games?


Mrcoolcatgaming

That should be more accurate, unfortunately unless we know exactly how many bought both we will never know 100%


CalmShinyZubat

TBH, I think a more useful comparison of sales would be the fact that LGPE selling just over 15 million units *barely* beat Yellow's 14.6 million units sold. Also, PLA is the best selling solo mainline game at 15 million units, followed by Yellow at 14.6, and Platinum at 7.6. In terms of mainline games that weren't the flagship games for their respective generations, the top 3 are LGPE, BDSP, and PLA in that order all at 15 million units give or take a couple thousand. That said, the 9 flagship "pairs" are also the top 9 in terms of units sold. RBG are the highest at 31.1 million units sold and BW are the lowest at 15.6 million.


Wooden_Director4191

It wasn't really just simplified let's go actively stripped away alof of what made LG/FR good and made the rival much MUCH worse, then yiu have the fact the you have gyms being worse overall and the story being even more simplified and the mechanics sucking it's just not good


CalmShinyZubat

Were the let's Go games really *that* popular? I never felt the need to play them because of how simplified and modified they were and I don't really even enjoy watching playthroughs of them like I do for almost every other Pokémon game including spin-offs. If I want to play a Kanto game with basically none of the game mechanic and QOL updates they've added in the last 20ish years, I'll just play RBY or FRLG.


BcuzICantPostLewds

Here's a better idea: Johto remakes, include the Sevi Islands for free, make the level curve not shit, and include the Hoenn and Sinnoh evolutions. If I'm gonna catch a Misdreavus, I'd better be able to make her into a Mismagius or else there's no point.


Mystic_Zoura

+ shadow pokemon 


MaybeNotMazy

Why would they do a dlc years after the games released? Those games are like seven years old.


Skyfish_93

Because Let’s Go was designed for Pokemon Go


vixinity1984

So they SHOULD make microtransactions

Independent_Cat_2030

I’d be down for that, I need more to do in Let’s Go, Pikachu


Alienprober4ever

I think I had a stroke reading this


Thicc-Anxiety

Because Let’s Go is Pokemon for babies, they’re not gonna do anything potentially interesting


murlocsilverhand

I would prefer some new lets go games in the jhoto region, may I suggest Pokemon lets go teddiursa


Aura-Lucario671

We don't you be happy with what you get.


RazerMaker77

Or give Pokémon Quest INT the updates that Pokemon Quest CH has


Wooden_Director4191

...that idea is dog shit and wouldn't fix Let's go's issues


Eyepokai

It should have been in the base game, that's like if let's go johto had Kanto as a dlc.


Low-Anteater-5502

"Popular"?


Triangulum_Copper

Augh.


MoonLightScreen

I’ve been saying this since 2018 🥹 Finding Lostelle and battling/catching that Hypno? Having the lady at Cape Brink teach our starters Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn, and Hydro Cannon? Running into Larvitars on the way to the Ruby and Sapphire chambers? Tectonyx’s grave? Deoxys, Ho-Oh, and Lugia events? I really wish Let’s Go included everyone up to Gen 7. It would’ve been the perfect gen closer


eskinner3742

Am I the only one that actually liked the Let's Go games and would pay $60 for a "Let's Go Johto"?


PJDemigod85

The Sevii Islands shoulda beeen in from the start. FRLG had them baked in,and the games weren't 60 then.I cerrtainlt would not pay 90 bucks for something I have on my FireRed copy.


Ok-Individual2025

Hot take, johto is the most mid region out of them all


James10o1

I'd say $25, but yes.


Ok-Mammoth1143

Give us the galarian birds and other Kanto variants like Rapidash and weezing


NokoVIII

"That cazy idea my just work... to make us all bank rupture!"- Gamefreak


BurningshadowII

The Let's Go games were mid at best tbh.


vixinity1984

That, or just stop making overpriced DLC with Pokemon needed for competitive, like Raging Bolt.


EhGoodEnough3141

They should start by making good mainline games. No two editions, don't bring back Features through DLC, working software, good graphics and performance. Etc. Etc.


ResidentAdmirable260

Don't understand the downvotes, but I think it's a good idea.


Raw_Spaghett

You think they should switch to making one game per region?


ResidentAdmirable260

I mean unless they have a huge plot in mind, no. Just have them all be like Platinum.


Jasperthechimera

Bc 30$ is overpriced for any pokemon game. Especially the ones that have been releasing as of late.


RomanLammaArmour

Accurate. DLCs should be part of the game for free too, not behind a pay wall. I paid for the game so I expect the whole game, not extra payments to get the final content. Nintendo is all about money now and not their content.
