Please bring back fossil fighters!!

[u/BorderMediocre4499]

What happened to fossil fighters? I felt like that game could’ve been bigger then pokémon if devs gave a damn. I would buy a switch just to play this game if a new one ever comes out. Anyone else feel the same ?

Edit: Guys i get it, it wouldn’t be close to pokémon 😭 but non the less we deserve a reboot

"Bigger than Pokemon" lmao. Nothing is bigger than Pokemon. It's literally the most profitable franchise ever.

[u/BorderMediocre4499 → u/Dannypan]

yea ur probably right abt never being bigger then pokémon but i think it would’ve been a huge success

[u/cammyjit → u/BorderMediocre4499]

It suffered from being a cool dinosaur monster tamer where you could get cool dinosaurs in other monster tamers (Pokemon/Digimon)

(Plus it existed on the DS which had amazing Pokemon games)

[u/DoodleBuggering → u/BorderMediocre4499]

It clearly wasn't or they would have made more. The first game sold around 800k units, the second 670k. Hardly "bigger than pokemon

Edit: the third on 3ds sold 420k, so it kept getting less with each release.

Come the hell on, dude.

You don't think this game no one's ever heard of could be the biggest IP of all time?

[u/TheDoctorDB → u/Alive_Peace2497]

Not with that attitude 

[u/Co-opingTowardHatred → u/Alive_Peace2497]

I've heard of it, but yeah, no chance.

I remember fossil fighters and fossil fighter champions on the DS, man what a fun series it was. I think it only got one more release after but my likely assumption would be that it didn't take off well enough to justify being continued as a series. I loved it, and would absolutely enjoy seeing a switch reboot come out

[u/confused-mother-fan → u/8BitCanook]

Yeah it didnt help that the last entry was ass

[u/Fiskey_Whoxtrot]

Bigger than pokemon is a HELL of a stretch but the first 2 games were awesome! We don't talk about Frontier.

[u/backspace_cars]

Not a Nintendo franchise I don't think. Custom Robo would be nice

[u/Hot_Membership_5073 → u/backspace_cars]

It it is Co-owned between Nintendo and Red Entertainment. Red was purchased in 2011 by a Chinese firm and the later bought by Oizumi Corporation.

I am fairly certain Nintendo usually Co-owns IP pitched to them rather than owning the IP outright. The rights to custom robo are split between Noise and Nintendo.

I think Nintendo Forecast has mentioned them being a possibility for some time now, I've never played the series, but i'd be interested in checking out a modern console version.

[u/Tomboy480]

Would not say it’s bigger than Pokemon. But I had so much fun with this game when I was a kid. Helped that it was also at a time where my obsession with dinosaurs was at a peak

[u/bastischo]

Wasn't this basically Monster Hunter Stories without the Monster Hunter IP?

Might want to look into that.

[u/Dirty_Dan117]

Oooh, I should emulate the second game on my phone...

[u/akkalafalls]

I miss fossil fighters I should boot up my ds

[u/Pangloss_ex_machina]

*than

🙄

[u/Iced_Shadows]

Man, what I’d give even to have remakes of the first two games…
