THE PROCESS WON

Yeah I know what you're thinking: this is just bait.
But after the recent pokemon presents I want to give props to the most valuable and talented nintendo partner and switch developer: GameFreak.
And I'll prove to you why that is with FACTS.
Let's start by showing the amazing output of game freak in the span of 7 years:
2016 with pokemon S/M selling 16.28 mil.
2017 with pokemon Ultra S/M with 9.09 mil.
2018 with pokemon let's go Pikachu and Eevee with 14.66 mil.
2019 with their magnum opus Pokemon Sword and Shield with 24.50 mil copies sold (outselling even pokemon G/S and becoming the second best selling entry in the franchise
2020 with the DLC of Sword and Shield by many considered even better than the base game.
2021 with the remake of Pokemon diamond and pearl with 14.79 mil (not gamefreak but that's the point, they're a team so smart that they don't waste their time with remakes like other teams that spread themselves thin with ports and remakes).
And of course 2022 with 2 huge games: pokemon legends arceus with 12.64 mil and of course pokemon scarlett and violet which are looking to take the world by storm when it releases this november.
That's 7 games plus DLC in 7 years, all successful and critically acclaimed witho metascore all on the 80s and more.
Compare this to other teams like epd tokyo who made 1 game and a enhanced port in 7 years, epd 3 with just one game + dlc and a port, Next level games with only 3 game in 7 years (and one of them was metroid federation force what a disgrace) or even monolith soft by many loved here in 7 years only made 2 games 1 expansion and 1 remake.
Only one team beats game freak int terms of output and that's epd4 with 12 different games released in 6 years plus a remake/port, but they can't compete with the success that gamefreak's output, their biggest hit (ring fit adventure) sells on par with all other gamefreaks games and the rest only sells 1mil+ copies with fex exceptions. With a combined 91.96+ mil copies sold in 7 years gamefreak is virtually untouchable.
Now you may say that sell numbers are not the only important things and that quality is what's king but that's the point, gamefreak delivers both on quantity and quality.
Let's look back at other games made by the acclaimed studios of nintendo:
Epd 3's breath of the wild with a 97 on metacritic
Epd tokyo's mario odyssey and 3d world + bowser fury with a 97 and 89 on metacritic
Epd 5 with animal crossing new horizons with 90 on metacritic.
All great games that scored more than game freak's games (with it's highest score being sun and moon with 87 on MC);
BUT if you add up all the scores of the pokemon games released by game freaks you can see the true picture:
With a full metacritic score of 562 game freaks dwarfs all other nintendo's studios output in quality, like epd 3's measly 259 metascore or epd tokyo's 186 or NLG's 223.
Even the beloved monolith soft can only hit a power level of 344 with much less successful games than game freak.
So now that I've statistically proved that game freak is the best and most talented nintendo developer in everyway I can finally make my final point:
Monolith soft sucks and they should give the xenoblade ip to gamefreak so that we'll finally have good xenoblade games. Thanks for reading.
I'm sorry
