it's always easier to blame someone else rather than admit one's own failings and shortcomings, and you know, corporations will be corporations... :v
Isn't it amazing, horrible, depressing, creepy, and totally worth a double facepalm at the same time to know that this world's been like that for so long... ? And that it's filled with an amount of illogicalness and other dumb things I rather not name here at nearly every second corner...? Embrace your functioning mind, as long as you still have it and it's not corrupted by others or media...
Sigh... I'll go to sleep now.

Good night, sweet Phantom. My your dream be unplagued by cookie stealers like me.

Good night Phantom. Dream you are a little Chimical XD
And thanks everyone for telling your opinions and thoughts about this post. I feared a little about i would receive rocks in my face XD
And yeah, Nintendo is in his right, after all, pokemon belongs to Nintendo and GameFreak. But the way they do that right its complete stupidy, and the way they put the blame in Uranium its ilogical. Well, even i understand why they do that, i still mad because of Nintendo.

You know, @Spiritmon, I've had the same musings myself. At the end of the day, Nintendo / Game Freak probably wasn't behind the hack attacks that plagued the original servers, but... who knows? Stranger things have happened!
But I agree that Uranium's success, while it might have drawn a few people away from the glitch-haven that is Pokemon Go, couldn't have possibly have had near the impact that sources keep trying to claim that it did. The game was only downloaded 1.5 million times compared to the 15 million users that PoGo lost. Unless each and every one of those people were downloading it for themselves and ten of their friends, that was merely a drop in the bucket. No, Niantic's mismanagement of the game and its servers is fully to blame for that one.
Besides, both games are free to download (PoGo's microtransactions not withstanding). If anything, wouldn't they be concerned that PoGo could potentially draw revenue away from the upcoming Sun/Moon release? After all, why would someone buy a 3DS and one (or both) games if they can just download a free app onto a phone they already have?
Maybe that's actually Nintendo's concern. Maybe they're afraid if there are all these free fangames out there, nobody will want to buy Sun/Moon!

Well its just a theory. A Game Theory! (Who know the reference?). And i agree with you, both games, Uranium and Go, they are free with problems at all. But heck, Nintendo its making such huge games like Sun and Moon. They be very stupid to have that fear. Sometimes, humans its a idiocritic race

Game Theorists reference? I enjoyed the first few episodes of their Uranium livestream but the live chat spam + tedious grinding caused me to stop watching.

I know all too well. Too many Activisions, Warner Brothers, EAs and Ubisofts in the world, not enough Toby Foxes, Ska Studios, and Blizzards (to an extent).

Having trouble lucid dreaming? Left me call one of my Legendary friend to aid in that dilemma! *Accidently call Darkrai instead of Cresalina, and broke their phone in the process*
.....Shit.
RE: Pokemon Uranium dead? A good think? - PhantomUnderYourDesk - 10-16-2016
Oh, hello Darkrai! What are you doing he... zzz...

Nah, I don't think that that's the point. Well, it's sure possible, but it would be ... totally weird...
Just trying to say I'm pretty sure there will be more MORE than enough people who will buy Sun/Moon. GameFreak did very well on the 7th Gen., I can see how much effort they've put into the game, how well they broadcasted the Hawaiian theme, how many new features they're introducing. And they're incredible at creating a hype, given all the leaks the continued showing on their official YouTube channel.
