DMTM: Neither I nor anyone I know assigns blame to you personally for any perceived corporate missteps. Quite the contrary: I believe you are our best advocate! 
I realize that several comanies are involved, and that some of them are located in Japan. The complexity of the intercorporate relationships must be a headache to deal with! 
From the outside, the 'politics of Pokémon' become pretty opaque. We as consumers base our behavior and decision-making on whatever information we can glean. In the case of Pokémon, information is in very short supply.
This is why, when ANY information with perceived credibility comes to the surface, it generates a big stir. I understand why it is impossible for you personally to be more informative; that obligation has been imposed on you by corporate policy. 
I really wish that Hasbro, TPC, Nintendo (or whichever other company may be calling the shots) would allow you do a better job in communicating with us. It would avoid a great many misunderstandings...

At this point, I am very, very CAUTIOUSLY proceeding here. From what I know, Hasbro is looking for ANY justifiable reason to do away with the Pokemon brand. Hopefully, this WON'T happen. However, it is all about the bottom line ladies and gentlemen. Like the old adage goes: "Business IS Business, no matter how much some of us might disagree with a certain decision that an entity such as Hasbro and/or the TPC makes.
DMTM has stated in many previous posts, that he is on "our" side. I am hopeful that this still holds true, and that this game does have a bright future ahead of it. However, right at this moment, I am on the sidelines waiting to see what develops. I will say, that Expedition getting released (or soon to be) in Europe and at least some infomation on Battlezone being provided now, is a step in the RIGHT direction.
Take Care,
