This is to show how unimpressive Pokemon has got: Dragon Quest Monsters 2 3D took at most less than three years to make given Joker 2 Pro came out on DS on March of 2011 and M2 3D came out on 3DS in February of 2014 and they made Terry's Wonderland 3D in 2012. So 2-3 year developmnent. Doubtless it was a smaller team and smaller budget. This was a spinoff game from a subsidiary of a subsidiary of Square Enix. Probs a bit less than Gamefreak's expenditures. It was on 3DS 8 years ago And beside one visual bug I found when going through one of the millions of randomly generated seeds, the game runs better, looks about as good, and has way more soul and effort put into it. GF has NO excuse
