Pokemon Gold and Silver DS Remakes — *Confirmed

Um…well I guess that's kind of cool, well anyway I suppose it'll be good to see this again. I mean I did like Gold & Silver back in the day. I loved the night & day element even though 6PM was night no matter what…. Hope they can fix it by real time so that the time is adjusted by the actual time change in the world and not just by whatever presets are there.

Then again I wasn't heavily impressed with Fire Red or Leaf Green, so….

…Wait, what?!!? 0_0

This is both surprising both not shocking..There were remakes for red and blue with LeafGreen and FireRed…So to remake the silver and gold versions..

Ah, those were fun days. I do hope that they implement the day-night thing that they had with Diamond and Pearl and add more nifty things…

This looks exciting, but I can't say this will be a downright success…

Maybe we'll finally get full body Sugimori's of the gym leaders. 8D And btw, pKjd, you should post up more Pokemon girls fanart. ;D

Lol, I agree…That fan art was very well made…

I guess it's not too much of a plus for me as I have these games and have beaten them already back in the day. Hopefully they'll incorporate some newer ideas along with the ones already in the game. Fire Red & Leaf Green were alright but pretty much all of the game was set up like Red & Blue, which was the point as it is a “remake” but still one would hope that the game would advance beyond the predecessor and become something semi-new.

Eh, I suppose this game will be kind of fun and it does save people the trouble of trying to port over Pokemon from the past via the GB > GBC > GBA > DS method….*2

I miss the days when it was only 151 you needed to catch, no offense I like a lot of the newer ones but it's like every other month a new games comes out and there are more to catch. They don't even give you the time to catch the ones already added. By the time the newer game comes out you feel you have to get it in order to be updated as you'll miss something, which in most cases isn't the truth but you get what I mean. For example Platinum is a waste of money to buy the same game as Diamond & Pearl just for that alternate dimension area. However you miss out on the newer Pokemon added to it. Giratina Origin Form I believe? Also I am a little sick of the alternate form ones like Deyoxs*1, have we lost the will to invent new ideas?

One thing I have wanted for the Pokemon games is the active adapt system, basically it's a DLC service so that when the newer Pokemon come out you could then download to the system a game patch and thus allowing you to get the newer ones but split it up into the different games so that you can keep on trading without having to throw out your game cart for a new one. I mean I realize that as time goes on and newer systems come out that you'll need the newer game carts and such otherwise the game won't play but still it would be great to have a service like that until the next new thing comes out.

*1 Now I'm not saying I don't like Deyox's as it's a cool Pokemon but I'm saying how about making 3 different Pokemon instead of 1 that has different forms.

*2 I mention the GB because Blue, Red & Green along with Yellow were on the original Black & White Gameboy format. Gold, Silver & Crystal were on the Gameboy Color format and the rest were on the GBA and DS. Technically you don't need to send Pokemon from the GB era over to the newer games as most are already there but for some who have completed the games fully and don't want to waste the time catching the same monsters again you can just simply transfer them to the newer games. Also you don't need a Gameboy if you have Gameboy Color or Advanced but still, it's an option if you want to use it.

Well, here's the thing about new Pkmn versions: I cannot expect Nintendo to make another generation of pokemon games. I seriously think that it should stop with Diamond..

No offense, I like the Pokemon games (I've got every game released since red + blue + yellow) but it's getting pretty old. Though, they are keeping pokemon alive by adding more concepts (Wifi communication and the like) but eventually, they'll hit a brick wall and the Pokemon series will have to stop there.

wow this should be fun

Oh.My.God…so THAT'S what happened to my old Pokemon Gold T_T It was save battery! >:( Can the same thing happen in the Crystal version? (oh please don't…well,I haven't played it for years,but still…)

Yey haha i already have the soul silver and it rocks
