Thoughts?
I told myself I wouldn't buy another Pokemon game until they bothered to do something new, but I might bite on this one. I have tons of memories playing Pokemon Silver.
I dunno, it depends on what features are included and taken out of the remake. It would be so like Nintendo to remove the Kanto region completely from the game.
-
Pokemon :lol
-
sweet um i guess
-
never played gold/silver so this is good for me
-
they're all the same so who gives a fuck
-
Gold/Silver can kiss my ass until I can get a politoed or steelix IN-GAME.
-
G/S are the best Pokemon games but yeah, we really need better graphics this time.
but it's gamefreaks so not gonna happen.
-
i really liked g/s when it came out, but d/p looked terrible so if they look like that, no sale.
also, this needs kanto to even matter.
-
Cool. They need to fix some of the stupid stuff in D/P though (saving takes forever, battles are slow slow slow) before I'd bite.
-
Yea, I definitely won't buy anything on the D/P engine.
But I tried popping LeafGreen into my micro to play in short spurts on the go, and it is SO FUCKING BORING. I don't think I can ever play Pokemon again.
-
OMG G/S :bow2
But if it's on D/P/P engine :-\

someone explain why gold+silver are so good yet the DS versions are shitty
-
someone explain why gold+silver are so good yet the DS versions are shitty
Probably something to do with:
- the stupid iv/ev system
- shitty new pokemon
- they never went the extra mile like they did in g/s by adding the Kanto region
-

Probably because it was when they ran out of ideas to improve the game and decided to release the same thing over and over

-Stomach-churning framerate outside of battle, particularly when riding the bike.
-Text scrolling at a snail's pace.
-
Damn guys. I was gonna pick up Platinum but if that doesn't fix D/P issues I may not bite.
-
Gold/Silver was the last installment I played. Loved it, but it also burned me out on the series. I remember grinding Pokemon by fighting the last bosses for ages to get all the evolutions. Such self-torture.
What was so bad about the D/P engine? I never played it.
-
To be fair, I hear platinum is supposed to speed things up a bit. But I don't really give a fuck LOL
-

it's slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

That battle has been sped up and it's still fukken slow.
-
Um
that is by no means slow
-
Um
that is by no means slow
Because it's sped up. Look how fast the pokemon and menu jumps when it says "WHAT WILL TANTEGA DO?"
-
That's running at double speed, at least. And if someone makes it rain, and is confused and poisoned, and is using a potion, and is under Wrap or some shit, it takes FOR EV ER

holy cow that looks like torture
especially since pokemon was fast as fuck in blue/red/yellow
-
my god, that music is bleeding my fucking ears.
-
I really hope they do a good job with the soundtrack. G/S has some excellent music.
just listen to this remix

fucking lame. my only experience with pokemon is about 5-6 hours of blue, which i enjoyed at the time but it looked like shit. i was hoping platinum might be something similar but :yuck
-
I don't understand why they would remake a game that's been basically repackaged a million times over.
-

It's Nintendo. Their entire business model is based on repackaging the same shit over and over.
-
I would play a G/S remake. The last and only truly great Pokemon games.
-
I don't understand why they would remake a game that's been basically repackaged a million times over.
Because it's a lot less work than a new installment and will probably outsell 95% of all other games out there. The real mystery isn't why Nintendo makes these kinds of things, it's why people keep fucking buying it.

I bought Pearl on a whim because I had nothing to play on my DS, everyone was talking about it and I hadn't played anything Pokemon-related in over 3 years. Can't say I regretted it, even though it took me over a year to get to the Elite Four because of how boring the game was at that moment.
I'll buy the Silver remake (unless they remove Kanto, then I'll just boycott it) because it was by far the best Pokemon game in the series. It was a massive improvement on R/B/Y and the later Pokemon RPGs haven't come close to it for a plethora of reasons. Plus, again, I need something to play on my DS anyway.
-
I bought pearl because I hadn't played a Pokemon since the original Pokemon Red. It was enjoyable enough, but not a whole lot had changed. I think I'll be waiting several more iterations before I get another one.
-
Now officially confirmed, Heart Gold + Soul Silver.

A lazy decade old remake that will outsell a ton of great games this year. Depressing. :(
-
this may be the first pokemon game i buy in 10 years
prole we should trade friend codes and battle :-*
-
I figured it was actually one of those blue ghost fire thingies that you see in animu.

and it will be remade into a game that would look outdated as a 2007 DS game.

On the topic of discoveries about legendary birds, I had never realized the articUNO, zapDOS, molTRES thing until it was pointed out to me today through a facebook status. Mind was blown.

Do the newer Pokemons at least have some sort of "skip animation/attack flash sequence" option? I remember trying to catch em' all and wanting to fucking kill myself due to the snail pace. All RPGs should come with a warpspeed option, used when you finally dropped all pretenses towards the battle system and just grind shit out.

I bet etoilet is beating his deformed distinguished mentally-challenged fellow dick, though.

No. It's what makes them terrible. They are. So. Slow.
-
you know what has fast animations, isn't a remake and is awesome? kings bounty
-
holy shit at uno dos tres
And yes you can skip animations in the newer PKMN games, but you can't disable the multi-page text that comes with every action.

Before the game hit the US I remember downloading a Japanese version of Gold/Silver onto a floppy disk, which made me the most popular guy in my suburb
