A new report via the Wall Street Journal has confirmed Pokemon games will make an appearance on Nintendo’s upcoming NX console.

The news was confirmed via The Pokémon Company’s Tsunekazu Ishihara, who revealed the long-running RPG series would naturally be on the console.


“The NX is trying to change the concept of what it means to be a home console device or a hand-held device,” Ishihara teased before confirming the franchise on the NX.

This is the first real statement addressing the hardware’s long-rumored focus on switching between a handheld and a home console.
