So this is the million seller this year, Pokemon. Never saw this one coming.
Post by: Bill Aurion on September 04, 2003, 03:51:04 AM
edit: I did a little research and found that this could very well be the case. The games will most likely be remakes of the original Pokemon games. I was actually hoping they would do remakes for the GC
Oh well, I hope they add lots of new stuff to make it the best yet if this rumor comes clean...

I hope these come stateside.
If it Pokemon, its coming statestide. It's too popular here for that to not happen.

Sounds a bit fishy though
Post by: joshnickerson on September 06, 2003, 07:00:00 AM
This could also be just another crazy rumor. I remember a couple of years ago, there was a rumor that Nintendo was going to re-release Gold and Silver in actual Gold and Silver colored metalic cartridges. And that didn't happen either.
If anything, this could just be another "Crystal" or "Yellow" style game, with a few key differences from Ruby and Sapphire.

A port is just a transfer from one system to another. A remake is a completely new game, possibly with new gameplay mechanics, minigames, as well as a graphical overhaul. People will buy the remake if it's something new, plain and simple.

Why not just play your old game on GBA?
Post by: Bill Aurion on September 11, 2003, 03:42:24 AM
"-Pokemon Fire Red (release Date N/A)
-Pokemon Leaf Green (release Date N/A)
-Both titles are under development
-Both titles are compartible (Linkable) to Ruby/Sapphire
-Both titles are compartible (Linkable) to Pokemon Colesseum
-The background is beautiful, battle zone is looked like GB version (no big change??)"

386 Pokemon in total.
202 available in R/S.
386 - 202 = 184
There are 151 available in Leaf Green/Fire Red.
184 - 151 = 33
Then you have evolutions/pre-evolutions for Pokemon from GRBY that appeared in future games:
Blissey
Steelix
Umbreon
Espeon
Bellossom
Pichu
Cleffa
Igglybuff
Magby
Elekid
Smoochum
Scizor
Slowking
Kingdra
Porygon2
Crobat
That's a total of 16.
151 + 16 = 167
So if we assume 167 are available in the remakes, then:
184 - 167 = 17
We know that Meganium, Typhlosion, and Feraligatr are available in Colosseum, so we have another 3, plus their pre-evolutions, so, that means 9.
167 + 9 = 176
186 - 176 = 10
Hmmm, where are the remaining 10? It'd be pretty low for them to make a GSC remake with only 10 remaining Pokemon, so it's safe to say that Colosseum and Leaf Green/Fire Red will let us get all 386 Pokemon.
Unless...
We take these 3 hidden Pokemon into consideration:

I think those'll be in Colosseum, e-Cards, promotions, or Leaf Green/Fire Red.

Looks real nice so far. I hope they add a lot of new stuff so it'll be worth the purchase
Post by: Syl on October 11, 2003, 08:10:42 PM
I JUST WANT MY EEVEE!!!! ::huggles his eevee evolutions::
I'm going to buy it, regardless of how similar it is. I'll be annoyed if GSC come out as another remake later on though, because I still believe those games are undoubtedly the best of the pokemon so far, espicially with the Time options and much larger world map.
Hell, i could even be hoping a bit too much and this game might make it to the Islands that were on the second season of pokemon. As i said, I'm hoping too much. (Johto islands?)

It was the Orange Islands in the second season of Pokemon. And I think they could build a sweet mini-game-themed game for the Cube based around the Orange Islands (since most of the battles in that series were like little challenges instead of actual battles)

Basically...
It has all 151 Pokemon, including the evolutions and pre-evolutions for the Kanto Pokemon that were in Johto -- Cleffa, Igglybuff, Politoed, Umbreon, Espeon, Bellossom, Blissey, Scizor, Steelix, Kingdra, Magby, Smoochum, Slowking, Porygon2, Elekid, Tyrogue, and Pichu. That's a total of 167 Pokemon in Leaf Green/Fire Red/Water Blue. It'll also be updated to correspond with the Ruby/Sapphire and Colosseum games, and it'll feature all of the movies, items, Pokemon, and features that Ruby/Sapphire has, such as Pokemon Contests, and breeding.
Oh yeah, Nintendo and GAME FREAK have also registered "Water Blue".
The rest of the Johto Pokemon will be available in Colosseum. Y'know, Snubbull, Sneasel, Lugia, Celebi, Ledyba, etc. That's a total of 100.
Leaf Green/Fire Red/Water Blue/Ruby/Sapphire/Colosseum = "cross-compatible".
Well, it looks like we know how to get all of the missing Pokemon (all 386), items, berries, features, and the National Pokedex.

Right now I think Japan gets Leaf Green and Fire Red, and everyone else gets Water Blue and Fire Red...just like the original releases...
Post by: CHEN on October 24, 2003, 12:41:44 PM
Red&Blue is the best pokémon game in my opinion. And remaking it is a very good move of Ninty. I would buy it...
Damn, thinking how many money I've spent on Pokémon games, merchandise, cards etc. it must've been hundreds and hundreds of money. A part of me says 'you're a grown man now, so act like one', but another part of me says 'It's Pokémon, so buy it! I usually listen to that other part of me
