They can announce the new "Spear" version of the latest game. If they announce Pokemon DLC for S&S it would be hilarious, but most people likely won't mind.

They will just eat it. I was so tired to see so many people shouting on the game because of its scandalous quality, and they all bought it except one friend who really canceled his order.

Most gamers (and people in general) don't have principles. This was going to be my first Pokemon game in years, but after seeing all the issues I decided to ignore it.
