Every Pokémon game has their current console in your room.
Ah, I guess I’ve been out of the game for a while then…
Lots of devs do this. Naughty Dog, who for a long while was exclusive to Playstation, loves to put Playstations in their games.
Ubisoft put an entire mission in Watch Dogs 2 about uncovering and leaking details about a game in development by Ubisoft.
My Pokemon White 2 has Wiis in the room and I just visited Game Freak because they self insert in every game, lol
Donkey Kong Country 3 for SNES had one of the auxiliary Kongs playing an N64.
The Steam version of Steamworld Dig had a hidden area with an old bombed-out games store with posters for Half Life 3.
Game Freak isn’t Nintendo. It’d be like seeing a Playstation reference in a Square Enix game.
For the last decades they are a second party developer at best. And Nintendo owns 1/3 of the Pokémon Company. And another third is owned by Creatures which is independent from Nintendo only on paper.
There were a lot of upset investors who bought Nintendo stock when Pokémon Go launched, to learn The Pokémon Company was not public, or the same entity.
Lmao
It’s more like seeing a PlayStation reference in a Naughty Dog game.
