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.

Lol.:P

Its pretty sad. I mean Pokemon games should get a 5 at best with the repetition, rehashing, and stagnation in the franchise.

Numbers are just numbers.

And a high score doesn't make them "stellar".

It's an exaggeration.

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.

charizard1605

Why do you want a female starter? :P

Egg moves.

yet it doesn't because the games are actually (bare with me for a second) good,
I know that concept is a bit much to wrap your mind around but do try to make an effort

Really interested to see what the announcement is. Hoping not a throw-away announcement like the past Square-Enix announcements have been.

I think they will announce

1) 3DS eShop 3D Classics of Red and Blue

2) Pkmn Gen VI for 3DS. Polygonal graphics, full analog movement (as opposed to tile based) BUT retains the overview perspective (although dynamic and tilted as in B/W).

I forgot to add to my predictions.

We'll see Iwata (or someone else) staring at a different kind of fruit, for the fourth time in a "Direct" episode since E3 2012.

This is hinting at some kind of Yoshi game for Wii U, revealed at E3.

(I'm basically posting these as proof later lol, btw there was a "predict 3ds/vita sales in 2012 thread made many months ago, I can't seem to find it, would be fun to compare, I think I said 30m 3DS and 5m Vita, it's gonna be close if we go by PR shipment numbers in the upcoming quarter report)

Uh oh.

Anyway, you should try to wake up 8:30 am every day (earlier even), not just in hype for announcements like this.

Nintendo probably wasn't pissed, the DS already had a huge fanbase and the 3DS can play DS games so it really doesn't hurt anything for Nintendo. The main thing that sucks about them being DS games is that the resolution of DS games looks terrible on the 3DS.

GameFreak has presumably 2 teams:

Mainline team: B/W 2010 -> Gen VI 2013

Remake/3rd version team: B/W 2 2012 -> ??

--

A proper 3D game wouldn't have been ready and going with a sprite based sequel to B/W on 3DS makes no sense. The thing about B/W 2 is that they remix / reuse existing assets and added no new pokemon. It's a pure cash in not related to the proper mainline entries. It's as if you say "wtf, why isn't Emerald on DS?" Similar scenario.

Because franchise themed Directs usually get their own colors. But Pokemon's color isn't blue, it's yellow.

So many possibilities with the Wii U gamepad I don't even know where to start. Plus crossplay between the 3DS.

This is what I like about Nintendo, all year is like E3... We get to hear from Reggie, Iwata, Bill, Miyamoto, etc every 2 weeks- month, what other company gives that service? The only time we hear from Tretton and Hirari?

[QUOTE="SonicNextGen2"]People need to stop thinking its Gen VI, Gen V hasn't been out for 2 years.SuperFlakeman

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.

Nah, Pokemon games have been made pretty fast recently (Black, Black 2, Mystery Dungeon 3DS), it'd be near the summer I'd bet. Also, almost all Gens last at least 4 years.

Nope. The first two generations lasted only three years. As for release dates, I foresee June 2013 for Japan, September 2013 for the rest of the world.

Something Masuada said: [Quote="Masuada"]"We think of the Pokemon games as communication tools," Masuda says. "It's important that many people own the same hardware, so they can play with each other." "The 3DS has a lot of very cool features," he adds. "The 3D, new network features - we could challenge ourselves with that hardware, so we're definitely taking a look at it. We're very interested." I also ask about Game Freak's interest in Nintendo's other new hardware, the Wii U, with a personal plea for the team to do a new version of Pokemon Snap making use of the Wii U Gamepad. Masuda doesn't seem interested in my wish. "Photography wasn't as widely spread in those days," he says. "Now everyone has a camera and can take photos whenever they want. Releasing it in that same form wouldn't be as interesting these days. Maybe there's a new idea, though." But perhaps they have something else in mind for the Wii U. "It would be very cool if you could play Black 2 and White 2 on the Wii U," Masuda says with a laugh just long enough to make it unclear if he was dropping a hint or joking completely.

Totally calling a multiplatform game.

From GoNintendo: The announcement is, more or less, a love letter to the franchise. It's being called Pokemon Rainbow, a 3DS game that encompasses the settings and Pokemon from generations 1-4: Red and Blue, Gold and Silver, Ruby and Sapphire, and Diamond and Pearl. You can take my word for it that the graphics are done up very nicely. The perspective is similar to what you'd expect from Pokemon games, but the camera is much more dynamic. The graphical style is characterized by very clean, dark lines. Almost cartoonish, but not quite. Battles look radically different, and move away from the use of pixel art. Though it seems that the interface is still made of pixels. The battle that it shown is between a totally new trainer and a wild Weedle. The trainer uses a Pikachu. I'm not privy to any story details, as I only know what will be announced tomorrow. The story is concurrent with Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 in terms of timeline. There are over 20 new Pokemon, and two will be revealed tomorrow. One is an evolution of an older Pokemon Eevee, called Draconeon. The other is a totally new Pokemon, called Verbill. It looks like a rodent, much like the Pokemon Patrat, but has a sort of pirate theme going on. A Wii U app will be launched along with the game, which will be announced tomorrow. However, all that will be said is that the app will be addressed "at a later date". The logo for the app features a globe with Pikachu, Munna, Treeko, Cyndaquil, and Piplup popping out from various countries.
