Wouldn't it be better if Sony owned Pokemon?

I've long wanted a Pokemon RPG on a console with added levels of visual quality and depth. 
 
It seems a shame that Sony don't own it. I think there'd be a lot of potential with the whole continue the experience on your portable console thing. (Hey, transfarring)
 
Has anybody else wanted them to step it up and release a Pokemon RPG on a console? I don't think Nintendo are going to do it, they didn't attempt it with the Wii or Gamecube.

How? Wouldn't it be better if Nintendo just released a decent Pokémon MMORPG?

I am still amazed that Pokemon has lasted this long. Grow up, people.

How... does this make any sense at all?

Because Pokemon would be great for transfarring. The Wii U doesn't have that with the 3DS, or does it?

They haven't said anything, but given that the DS and Wii can communicate with each other, there's nothing to suggest that the 3DS won't be able to transfer data too and from the Wii U.

I'm going to take up PS3 & PSV development and start my own Pokemon clone. I will then go forward with this transfarring idea and laugh at you all while sitting on my tower of money.

Don't they already do that with Monster Hunter? They don't have a monopoly on it, and Monster Hunter isn't similar to Pokemon at all, but both games heavily feature monster hunting. Think about it.

I think it's entirely possible that the Poke'dex 3DSware is just Nintendo testing the water and judging people's reaction to fully 3D pokemon.

Monster Hunter is a Capcom property that isn't exclusive to any particular brand of platform.

The transfarring stuff shown at E3 was pretty impressive, Pokemon would be great for it, they could release the two versions side by side and give a better experience for people playing at home while retaining the option for portable play too. Just seems like Sony have the tech in place with the Vita and PS3. Don't even know what made me think of this to be honest.

I think you're in in the minority when it comes to finding transfarring impressive. Also, transfarring was cooked up by Konami, not Sony.

This is random.

Wouldn't it be better if Warner Bros owned Street Fighter? Then we could get an excellent story mode for that game.

i wouldn't think so. 
 
all nintendo has to is make a decent game for consoles. i am waiting for a console game kind of like what pokemon stadium just being able to walk like on the handhelds. i dont' see that happening since nintendo hasn't made it yet since it's been out for like 11 years now. 
 
it would be cooler if it was the original 150 pokemon also. it's the only pokemon that i liked. i stopped watching and playing once there was more pokemon out.

People do grow up, and then Pokemon appeals to a new generation, and it continues to make money. Pokemon isn't just appealing and selling to the same people that played the original Red/Blue on the black and white Game Boy.

I am not talking about 10 year old kids. I know full grown adults who still play Pokemon and it astounds me.

I still wouldn't care, but yeah probably. Most things would be better out of Nintendo's hands.

Why? There are people that played the original Final Fantasy or the original Dragon Quest that still play those games today. Why is Pokemon that different? Is it because it has 'cute' monsters in it that you collect? is it because it doesn't have a deep, serious story? Why should that matter? Tetris doesn't have a deep, serious story, and yet people play that. Or what about something like Viva Pinata? Adults play that game, despite having more of an "cutesy" style. So what is it that makes Pokemon so different? Or is it just that you consider it something for children with little to no basis and would prefer to keep it that way?

First off, its not nostalgia when they have been releasing the same game over and over every year or two since forever. These people I am talking about are not the type to play games for that reason. They legitimately find Pokemon interesting even now and it astounds me. That's it, that's all.
