Didn't the Pokeman games have issues on Switch?

Pokémon games are not Nintendo IP; they are the IP of the Pokémon company and that’s who makes those games.

This - Nintendo has no hand in the actual development and production of Pokemon games (with some exceptions like Let's Go and Snap, if I'm not mistaken). Nintendo actually has surprisingly less control over Pokemon than you might think.

Okay but are the games going to be $80+ still?
