[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]

[QUOTE="Lightning_fan"]Omg a new pokeman game? Are they going to just add a ton of horribly designed monsters? Oh no wait... They might make it in 3D! 3D! ZOMG... whats sad is that the reviewers will not put this series in its place.Lightning_fan

and the games will continue to sell, people will continue to like them, and bitter-ass haters will continue to mope in a corner

Transformers sells well too, does that deflect any criticism of the series?

Pokemon is stagnant, juvenile, and conservative as a series.

No one is biting your flame bait. Go away.

[QUOTE="Desmonic"][QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="Desmonic"] Monster Hunter has as much impact on the West as CoD has on the East :P Pokemon would be a whole different ball game. If the next Pokemon game does it (and does it well) that will be the game that will open those options to 3DS ad WiiU developers for good. IMO of course :P

No, I understand that lol. I'm just saying it can be done. The technical infrastructure is already there, so it's not something outlandish. IIRC, Nintendo said they would belong something similar for Super Smash Bros. 4 as well.

That would be also a great option as the game that can make that important breakthrough. It's where Sony is finally starting to make some strides. Ratchet, Sly, Ac3 (to some minor extent)... they do need a BIG game on both platforms to do it though.. something like God of War or Uncharted or eveb GT if Polyphony can pull it off on their own...something that people would buy on BOTH platforms.

i think Sony has been doing an excellent job of it so far, though they NEED to incentivize people to go out and buy the game on two different platforms at once (Ubisoft did a great job with AC3, Nintendo used to do it well with GCN-GBA). Giving way the Vita version for free is not a sustainable business model in the long run. But yeah, Pokemon :P so pumped!!!

How can this be "flame bait"... When this is the point of system wars. Go to the 3DS forum or join a Pokemon union if you dislike what I am typing. All of what I have said is true. The series plays it safe - conservative Is juvenile- self explanatory and is stagnant (never get bored of catching them all guys)?

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] speculation expects nintendo's online to have caught up with modern standards of premium online, for free.BrunoBRS
Online on 3DS is acceptably fine in my opinion.

do you think online on the 3DS is capable of smooth cloud saving and cross-platform play? even monster hunter 3G is only going cross-play for local multiplayer, no cross-save (that i know of).

lol of course 3DS can have cloud saving its just a matter of if Nintendo feels the need to add it. Idk about cross platform play.

Another speculation:

Triva Time Pokemon Twitter Jan6th2013

Could they be hinting at a new Eeveelution in light of the announcement coming Tuesday? Ash is currently battling in the Unova League (in Japan) and one of the contenders, Virgil, owns an Eevee and all of its evolutions. Could we see his Eevee evolve into a new Eeveelution during the League? Blaziken was first introduced in the Johto League, after all. There have been many Eeveelution promotions these past few months, and the Genesect movie is also going to feature an Eevee mini-movie, so could this all be leading to a new Eeveelution or is this all just a happy coincidence? I don't know for sure, but it's all just a tad too convenient to not be leading up to something in my opinion...

PokeBeach

+ the announcement is on the 8th and if they do reveal a new eeveelution, it will be the 8th one.

[QUOTE="Desmonic"]^^ Aww, dude if it's all just for another Eevee evolution I will be disappointed :P They need to just announce a new damn Pokemon game made for the 3DS ground up! *believe!

well if it's a new eeveelution then that means it's going to be for gen 6.

Im really hoping that rumor you put up turns out true, char. Im just a little bit confused on how they would have the starter pokemon evolve differently for each player, but its a cool, FRESH idea. Im also wondering if the space colony is the only region and the description makes it sound like you would be able to meet other players there... I guess its still too early to be thinking about these kind of things.

I think, if the rumor is true, the space colony will have 'hubs' (like you would reasonably expect a space colony to have). One of these hubs might be a persistent online hub, ala the Entralink from the Black/White games, but only with online functionality support. [QUOTE="Desmonic"] *Sigh* Why can't Ninty make it simple for once? :P lol So, if they announce a new pokemon/evolution we can at least expect a reveal or some info on the actual game at E3 or one on Ninty's conferences sometime during the year, no?

We can pretty much expect it that day later, or maybe a week or so at worst. Most likely, though, what that post is speculating is that Nintendo will use the new Eeveelution to unveil the new generation, not that the announcement will just be the Eeveelution lol :P

That tweet has good timing, if the announcement isn't actually an Eeveelution. Nintendo may be trolling us for speculating this.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="Blamph"] Yeah, alot of the actual Pokemon designs in Black/White were absolutely horrendous.Blamph
Which is true of every generation. Like Jynx and Mr. Mime in Generation 1, what the f*ck are they even supposed to BE?

That was good stuff tho. In Black and White a lot of the Pokemon look like there out of some hack like sawk and liepard. There's also a lot of replacements like Concledure ( or however you spell it ) and Gigalith. Not to mention crap like the ice cream and the candle and then just plain uninspired ones like the golem guy.

Or just remove Ash and reboot it. Something similar to the Black 2/White 2 animated promo would be much appreciated.

Since it seems like there is gonna be a new gen or a new B&W game. I wonder how long it will take for me to store my starter somewhere safe inside that box in the new game. Also, gonna reload constantly until my starter is female. Like I do with every gen since gen 3.

Leak from Game Freak. If this is true, I will sell Nintendo my body:

This is a big ass post/p>darkspineslayer

That sounds...a bit too good to be true...I'll be interested if it is though, maybe it will dispel some of my pessimism after being underwhelmed with BW2. I picked it up again yesterday, after having it sit on my shelve since launch.

Yeah it does. I have a feeling that it isn't going to happen.

So what are you suggesting, that they stop making Pokemon games?

It will be the sixth mainline entry since 96.

You'll be hard pressed to find a franchise with a better release per year ratio.

Gen V launched in Japan September 18 2010.

The time has come. Remember this is only the announcement, by the time it actually releases it will have been 3 years.

I'm suggesting the quality of Pokémon has been going backwards every gen, as far as Pokémon design is concerned.

There are so many already, we don't need 150 new ones.

16 years.

It really is not comparable with many other franchises when it releases three games per gen and remakes.

R/B/Y

G/S/C

R/S/E

Remakes Fire/Green

D/P/P

Remakes G/S

B/W

B1/B2

20 games over 16 years. With the games being very similar.

Compared to Dynasty Warriors in 15 years which has 14 games.

Its not even the number of games but the lack of progression and Nintendo's tactics to milk the consumer (three versions) of many of the titles.

ye there is absolutely nothing gamefreak can do with the way they make their games to gain my interest in a new pokemon game but to include 150 pokemon, unless they design a full 3d world (DQ8 etc..)

Each set of games is one game (one gen)

And B/W 2 is the equivalent of the 3rd version, although granted that could count as the sixth game considering the plot is different and there are new areas, also remixed old areas/gyms.

It's a tough call because it's definitely mainline, but it doesn't feel like a new entry, more like an expansion pack.

I can give you B/W 2, but I feel that it's more like gen 5 part 2. For me gen VI will be the sixth proper entry.

There is absolutely nothing that can be done to Dynasty Warriors to gain my interest but add more warriors.

I guess noone should be allowed to criticize those games right?

SuperFlakeman can't accept that LOTS of his liked/fave games are overrated.

He thinks Twilight Princess,SMG,and Metroid Prime 3 are "stellar" games.

[QUOTE="campzor"]ye there is absolutely nothing gamefreak can do with the way they make their games to gain my interest in a new pokemon game but to include 150 pokemon, unless they design a full 3d world (DQ8 etc..)Lightning_fan

There is absolutely nothing that can be done to Dynasty Warriors to gain my interest but add more warriors.

I guess noone should be allowed to criticize those games right?

no, those are bad games, criticize away.
