Mirby Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Juinchi Masudo recently opened a Twitter[→] to increase interaction with his fans. Recently some sites, including our Japanese affiliate Shell Spider, have caught some interest wind about the Ruby and Sapphire being very “worthy” to get an upgrade. NICE. Hopefully his words aren’t just talk and there’s someone already on his team designing the next games: MagmaRuby and AquaSapphire. (...)(...) ps- Want to see this on the 3DS or the regular DS(i)? Sound off in the comments. Well? It may be just a hint, but I felt it was worthy of a thread. Or you could merge it with the old Pokemon thread. Whatever.

Dexie Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Knew it was coming when they datamined info out of Black/White about it, but nice to see some actual news on it, finally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexie Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Obligatory post about how every Pokemon game is a remake in the first place. Obligatory reply about how that's not true. (Someone needs to do a post bitching about the monster designs now.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 New/old pokemon designs are ugly as hell. The original/newer ones are better. What's this about datamined info from Black and White that mentioned Hoenn stuff? I don't recall hearing about that. EDIT: Depending upon the site, there are two or more ways to read the twitter post. One is that he responded by saying that the original games were important to him and thanked the user for his input, not that he'll "consider" remaking them. The second is, of course, that he TOTALLY CONFUCKINGFIRMED REMAKES OHMGODOHMYGOD. I can't find an actual translation of the image anywhere at the moment. I suspect that once there is one, the twitter post will end up being very disappointing. EDIT the 2nd: The current translation is "Thank you! Your thoughts have been received. R/S are a very important work for me too. I want to create something good. Thank you!!" No statement that he said they were working on a remake, just saying he liked RSE and wanted to make more good games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDX Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 ...man I'm old. Next up, Diamond/Pearl. As far as I'm concerned, those games came out just yesterday. Too soon man, too soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overflow Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 ...but before the remakes of Diamond and Pearl, we need the remakes of Fire Red and Leaf Green! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwaltzvald Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Perfectly fine with Emerald cart to be accessed through the old DS Lite. Shit still works yo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 gold and silver remakes had me excited because gold and silver were great I am not excited for this because ruby and sapphire were shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 The 3rd gen hate is unfounded. RSE added a lot of good things, many of which are still implimented today, as well as fixed many of the flaws that gens 1 and 2 made. In fact, most of the hate seems to be "the designs are ugly and unoriginal" bullshit that gets thrown around every time there's a new game. Every argument that people use against 3 rd gen works just as well against all the others, especially 1st gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach72 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Gonna second The Damned here; RSE weren't bad or unoriginal in ways relative to the other games. In fact, 3rd gen games were my favorite, so I'm pretty excited for these possible remakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 In fact, most of the hate seems to be "the designs are ugly and unoriginal" bullshit that gets thrown around every time there's a new game. this isn't why I disliked it in fact some of my favorite pokemon () are from gen 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexstyle Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I just want Groudon back, dagnabbit. Gotta get my legendaries. I played through Ruby twice on an emulator and never got to actually use the 3rd gen 'Mon in any sort of competitive manner (and I'm too cheap at the moment to go out and buy a used cartridge). Also, +1 for the DS Lite. I love mine. Edit: Add a +1 for Metagross. That's one of my all-time favorite pokemon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 I like Salamence, but only because HE WILLS HIMSELF TO GROW WINGS!! XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 this isn't why I disliked it in fact some of my favorite pokemon () are from gen 3 So what is it, then? The water routes? Not being able to trade over 2nd gen pokes? I still never hear any valid reason why people hate 3rd gen so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'll stick this here to save time. A web domain for Pokemon Gray (appropriately titled ‘pokemongray.com’) was set up by Melbourne IT Digital Brand Services. This may, at first glance, seem like someone trying to cover bases in an attempt to beat Nintendo and The Pokemon Company to the punch – just like the recent Modern Warfare 3 web domain dispute – but a further look into Melbourne IT DBS shows that they are the exact same company that registered the official domain for Pokemon Black and White. That’s a good indicator that Pokemon Gray is on its way. Source I think it's plausible. And with the special 3DS presentation on Friday that Ninty's holding, we may get info sooner rather than later. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 game freak has previously confirmed that they aren't making a pokemon gray though it could be a translation error on my part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Sorry mirby, but that isn't news. Ths was known back in August. What's going on is that IGN just got around to reporting it now, and everyone else is just re-reporting it via twitter and blog posts. http://www.gamespot.com/forums/topic/28808699/pokemon-gray-pretty-much-confirmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 Regardless of the age of the news, I think it to still be a valid topic for discussion. Such as what new features may be added (such as HG/SS's Pokéathlon), storyline tweaks, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Meh, speculation thread. I'd rather have a thread with actual verified stuff going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ad.mixx Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I've still yet to get into Pokemon Black like I thought I would, but sign me up for a 3rd gen remake. As long as it has the battle frontier from emealdy, which stands out imo as the most fun area in any Pokemon game ever, ill never need to pick up another Pokemon game again. Typing this from phone so I kinda gave up on capitalization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level 99 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Can someone tell me how to catch Pokeblu? I beat the elite four five times and tried to use STRENGTH on that truck but it doesn't move help Okay, I'm done. I don't understand why there's such hub-bub about mostly insignificant things. All this social media has done is made people misconstrue information from others more often and more quickly. Also perhaps the Pokemongray aquisition was also to prevent squatters from abusing and posting something fake? Or it could be code for "Pokemon: Go Ride a Yodeler!" Edit: In retrospect, I would 100% buy a pokemon game about riding yodelers. Not even kidding here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensei Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 So these are actually all just unconfirmed rumors. brb, opening a thread about Half Life 2: Episode 3. My uncle works at Valve and he said it's definitely coming out soon! E: It will have Gordon Freeman and Chell teaming up with the entire TF2 cast + all Left 4 Dead survivors to defeat zombie ninja pirate robot BreenTankAdministratorGlaDOS.

Level 99 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I'd play this game If that were actually what HL2:E3 was about, I'd take back all the nasty things I said about it and forgive its long and invisible development time. They needed all this time to build the story of the complimenting franchises and lore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
