Aninymouse Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I didn't know that they released CD soundtracks for Gameboy games at all, but then what do I know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ-star Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I can't wait to get the game (unlike the other "so called" Pokemon fans I will get this game) I have played from start and still going. although I wouldn't mind if the made a game were you can travel all the regions and collect all the badges and pokemon with out collecting like 5 different games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 But they will never do that. It's completely against the entire point of the series. Being able to get all of anything in one game is like having Sonic walk around real slow, or Mario not eating mushrooms and fireflowers to not rescue Princess Peach. It's the basic foundation of the series to not be able to get everything in one go. Trading was, and still is, the integral idea behind it. But there is a new commercial at http://www.pokemon.co.jp/special/hgss/special/movie.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aninymouse Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 And that commercial is so, so beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tables Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Well I'll be damned. From what I gather, there'll be a new movie with a chance to get Arceus onto your new little remake. Also, holy crap it seems like the first Pokemon in your party, whoever it is, will be the one following you everywhere. Sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aninymouse Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I'm thinking that it won't follow you indoors, though, since the character didn't have anything following him inside Clair's Gym. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Any thought about changing the thread title to include the proper titles, Heart Gold and Soul Silver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aninymouse Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Pokebeach has a summary up for the Arceus movie. Hot damn this might be the first Pokemon I've been excited about since the first damn one. It actually sounds cool! I hesitate to believe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drack Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I'll be playing the Japanese Soul Silver when it hits. Having spent six weeks of this summer in Japan, my skill in the language has dramatically improved, so I don't think that will be an issue, considering how easy it is to play Platinum in Japanese now (only significant stumbling block is the move names). So I'll have info straight outta the game very close to the Japanese release. By the way, the part of the commercial that referenced Arceus, here's a rough translation (Big text) This summer in theaters!!(voice) This summer in theaters, let's get the pokemon Arceus! (text) Let's get Arceus in theaters! (image showing Arceus being downloaded to Diamond/Pearl/Platinum, then getting transferred to HeartGold/SoulSilver) (text) Transfer that Arceus to HeartGold/SoulSilver and... (voice) If you bring that Arceus to HeartGold/SoulSilver, summon the god and you can do a secret objective concerning the creation of Pokemon! (image text in game) Soul (Probably the player's name) got Dialga! (image showing giratina, dialga, and palkia) (image text) You can do a secret creation objective! The movie is coming out this summer, and the games are coming out in the fall (the commercial made a big deal about how that they're now taking preorders, though), so my guess is that you HAVE to trade Arceus from D/P/P to get it into HG/SS unless they do more promos after the launch.

The Damned Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 OK, so we just have to get one of our Japan-based members to go grab this download, copy the fuck out of it, and then trade it over to each and every one of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BardicKnowledge Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 ^Meh -- getting events normally unavailable is what the action replay is for. Just grab the flute that you need for said event, and win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltstarfire Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I'm finding it extremely annoying that they keep adding more and more things that are event only. Not all of us have the luxury of driving to some random store or download station, nor action replay or whatever. *wonders off grumbling about locked game content* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Well, in the GB, GBC and even the GBA games, it kind of made sense. I recall the old RBY games had a few events... and by that, I mean you just did a straight trade with another cartridge. That's now I got my Mew from Toy r Us. Crystal in Japan had that wacky cell phone add-on that the Japanese players could use to get Celebi. And the GBA games had a few tricks, namely the E-Reader card to get to Southern Island to catch the other Lati@s your version didn't normally have. The point was that it was difficult to set up any kind of region, nation or continent-wide event simply because in North America, the population is much bigger and mush more spread out. But with the DS being able to go online, and the much touted wi-fi this and that, there's no reason why players can't get any of the events at all. They already have the system in place to download items and pokémon to games, regardless of the version (except for the Secret Room Key for Rotom's other formes in Platinum). In this day and age, there's no real limitations for the series anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltstarfire Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I've gotten the key for the rotom room (got platinum for my birthday ) but, I don't know of anything else I can unlock without having to physically go to a movie,or toys r us.

Well, that was the first one with which they used the Nintendo WFC distribution in the USA. Japanese players have gotten quite a few more wifi events since then, though. In fact, since I have a Japanese version of Pearl, I was able to download that Jirachi they gave out recently. I just have to go pick it up at the Pokemart. No idea why they sleep on the English fans.. We make them so much more money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BardicKnowledge Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 As long as events are available in the States, I'm game for them and won't cheat. But things like e-reader or Japan specific stuff was complete BS -- the biggest example IMO was SMB3 on the GBA requiring crazy e-reader things to access the cool levels.

Aninymouse Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 the e-reader was probably the worst idea nintendo's ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Virtual Boy says hi. Oh, and look! There's the N64DD. And who's that behind him? Is that... yes, I think it is, it's "the decision to stick with cartridges instead of CDs", and his brother, "Tell Sony to screw off and let them make the Playstation". Hold on, I want to call up GameBoy Micro and see if he's free for a get-together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NNY Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 The Game Boy Advance Micro wasn't so much of a failed product as it was a last cash grab for the dying system. The unit itself is actually rather nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
