If there's one thing The Pokemon Company and Gamefreak can do well it's to iterate. There will always be an opportunity for Nintendo to make an in-house sequel.

If there's one thing The Pokemon Company and Gamefreak can do well it's to iterate. There will always be an opportunity for Nintendo to make an in-house sequel. Niantic can and should be cut out of the picture in the future.
- echelon 10y agoWhy should Niantic be cut out? Nintendo owns a (large?) share of them. They could become a second party, like Retro Studios.
- ben_jones 10y agoIf Niantic management is responsible (I mean they are but did they make wrong decisions, or did they make ok decisions in bad circumstances?) you can argue that keeping that same management involved in a sequel could be detrimental to the evolution of the game. It also makes it harder to shed the failures of the first iteration. Personally I think Niantic's entire team was plain overwhelmed and failed to adapt. Some decisions were made for money, and you can argue that they were unnecessary, but their is also no doubt a lot of people worked really hard and tried their best to make it work. There is of course value in that experience that can be applied to future iterations. The future looks great for AR at least.
