Nintendo reported their third straight loss to investors, and it seems as though they may be willing to seek new ways to make profit.
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo’s president, said he would continue to run the company and added, “We are thinking about a new business structure. Given the expansion of smart devices, we are naturally studying how smart devices can be used to grow the game-player business. It’s not as simple as enabling Mario to move on a smartphone.”
As iOS and Android devices have gained market traction and improved hardware, they’ve been seen as direct competitors to Nintendo’s handheld consoles. Mobile gaming applications often cost only a couple of dollars, much less than traditional handheld games.
The Pokémon Company has released some apps for mobile devices, including their 3D Pokédex and a Japan-exclusive simple rhythm game which tied into the trading card game, but they have never released other games.
We’ll have to watch Nintendo’s strategies closely. Would you like to see Mario, Zelda or Pokémon on your phone or tablet?

FEATURED THREAD: My assorted ideas for Gen 7 by Yellow Devil
Get the tms and items!
Same!
Same here!
hello there poke buddies!! anything new?
got 2 shiny mudkips through masuda you?
i don’t even have a shiny bidoof 🙁 lol! I’m shinyless
Nice to see you again 😀
same here!!! 😀
Doing my first MM!!
(what is that?)
Masuda method. Going for turtwig!!
ohhh! GOOD LUCK!
FINALLY REFRESH FOR IMAGE
Nice, thats my next project but defiant and physical.
Shiny Defiant Physical Empoleon should really be able to smash online and its unique. Really rare. Intimidating users are ever so popular so it’ll be nice to switch in on an intimidate and grab that 2x attack boost. Shame Empoleon doesn’t get Aqua Jet
it did in gen 5 🙁
See I knew it got that move!! I kept asking myself was I dreaming. Was it a tutor move?
nope it learned it at level 36. Also can i get the piplup on monday? Im not relly here tomorrow
did you mm it or get it in a trade?
mm
5iv thats awesome congrats
awwww its adorable!!!! Even has two egg moves and sexy IV’s … wow impressive
it took sooo long!!!!
im going to go post it on my website!
djja.third.net
what are the highest iv’s for a lv1 pokemon???
6iv
they all have to be six? because i got a scyther with all 6 except one has five and a snivy that has all 6
impressive!
really? i actually don’t know a lot about this iv’s thing lol! (I’ve been living under a rock 🙁 )
oh you mean stats?
the numbers next to the sp. attack, speed etc.
oh those are stats, the highest are 7 or 8 i beleive 6 is great too
so what are iv’s??
individual values, like evs they boost the stat they represent. Im not that great either at ivs
individual values. they are hidden you can’t see them, but the guy in Kiloude Pokecenter can tell you about them.
They determine how high your max stat is going to be. Confusing I know, takes some reading into and getting use too lol.
i see, thanks for explaining and i will read about them asap!!! just thinking about it makes me remember being inside rock tunnel and being hit by a gazillion zubats!
rotlmmmmmfaaaoooo!!!
well it can have 6 IV’s of 31…. but if you mean like whats the highest the stats are displayed at lvl 1?? I think 7… not sure if I ever seen 8 on a lvl 1 poke.
For anybody who has a second x and y you guys should try a region locke
Im doing a sinnh/hoenn locke
I’m doing a sinnohlocke on x. Starter:Turtqouise.
I just got shiny piplup!!
Almost ready??
Yep, just finishing up TMs!
I’m ready when you guys are! 🙂 I’m not using items because I’m afraid I’ll forget to pick them back up and release them! :O
Ready!
Ready!
I’m breedin a 6 IV jap ditto with a % iV missing spatk turtwig. When I gt the shiny, It’ll likely be 5 IV missing spatk.
*5 IV
Heavy, I hope you dont mind, but when I get my turtwig, I’m gonna use him in battle as my prof. pic.
I don’t mind lol. I can’t tell anyone what to have as their avi lol. Besides I think me and Jordin had our shiny mudkips up both at the same time for about a day or so lol
Oh yeah!! Slippery did find an extra shiny kip for me!
Thats so lucky!! Arceus has been blessing him lately. Congrats on your new Mudkip!
thanks 🙂
I had slippery name him Captain Kip!!
that sounds like a really good brand of cereal..
x3 lol. LOL
Carnivine xd
😀
Good luck, everyone!
Here we go lol
@heavymetallamb:disqus may i have the defiant piplup on monday, im not gonna really be on the jungle tomorrow? Also how many ivs will it be?
Yep I’ll hold it for ya! Gives me enough time to MM absol and play through Y a bit lol. And I’ll try to get ya 4 to 6IV one.

I’m going to break this horrendous Emoji chain and ask whether anybody has heard about the reviews of Kirby: Triple Deluxe?
Why
Random switch…
That confuse/attract combo! 😮
Pizza
arizona iced tea
the hoenn anime
life=complete
You got this Mantuke person
That would be me. 😛
Im banded
Oohh
Gg
GG
GG!
GG
Good Job again Molly
You can call me Ammy. 😛
Rematch?
I’m down.
Sure, same teams?
We should switch it up imo.
Ok!
Yeah.
did you know that the whole battle fronteir season of the hoenn anime was ONE WHOLE YEAR OMG
Would you guys be open to the idea of Nintendo casting a DLC Guest Character for Pokemon games? And if yes, who wouldn’t you mind being apart of the 721 pokemon for a bit lol… I’ve always wanted Kirby to be a Pokemon. It could be fairy type and have an ability similar to Castform’s that allow it to change its type/form to fire/ice/electric lol
PHOENIX WRIGHT FOR GEN 7!
A couple years ago I was trying to get a petition signed for pokemon to be skylanders. LOL
I’m starting to strangle my plush turtwig and think turtwigs are shiny then there not.
I’m 110 eggs in.
110 is nothing, lol. You need more patience! 🙂
Thats something I’ve lacked my whole life.
As strange as it sounds, it ALWAYS comes when you least expect it. 1100 eggs in I was talking to Jordin on the chat and *pop* it came! 🙂
1100?? O_O I cant do this. . . . Even 300 sounds too many . . .
If you REALLY want it you’d do it! 🙂
I will do it. . . I just wont like it.
Yep I was actually typing a message on here yesterday while an egg was hatching and I caught that blue from my peripherals and screamed lol. Nearly slapped my PC over in excitement
I’ve never had that feeling. . .this is the first shiny I’ve had to look for.
*work for.
trust me you’ll definitelu notice that blue hue when it hatches shiny lol.
I must get it!! I must!!
Normal or wonder? What teams?
I prefer normal!
1 vote for normal!
I vote normal. 😛
