The Official Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver Discussion Thread

[Jericho]

Apparently, there is a huge Pokemon video game announcement coming on May 10th during the Japanese variety show, "Pokemon Sunday". It's believed to be so by the fandom due to the large party balls colored gold and silver respectively on the ceiling of the show's set. More info to support this rumor being more than just that include CoroCoro and Nintendo Dream magazines having a big title to disclose right around that same time frame.

Credit for this information goes to GAF for bringing it to my attention and Bulbagarden for breaking the story.

So then RPM? What say you?

*MOD POWER ABUSE - As of May 7, 2009, this is confirmed to be real! - MOD POWER ABUSE*

[Rad Lionheart]

I don't seem to have anything to say other than "Cool" it seems.
Really can't think of anything else that expresses how I feel about it.

[Jericho]

Understandable. Meanwhile, as I've said in the past, this was the only game that could make me a Poke series follower again. It happened, and now my Typhlugia combo get to PWN again.

[Sub Tank]

YOU ARE ALL WRONG.

THEY ARE ANNOUNCING POKEMON SNAP 2.

[Rad Lionheart]

YOU ARE ALL WRONG.

THEY ARE ANNOUNCING POKEMON SNAP 2.

NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

[Pyro]

YOU ARE ALL WRONG.

THEY ARE ANNOUNCING POKEMON SNAP 2.

Do NOT even joke about that!

Also, being the guy who broke the news in the other thread. All I have to say is [tornado fang] yeah!

[Jericho]

Oh my God, Snap 2 with IR controls would be amazing. : O

[Sakura Leic]

It would be nice to finally get one not to metion long overdue...hmm if it is true I'll probably get silver since I always get the second title in the pokemon series except for Gold and Silver since I got Crystal.

[Gaia]

After FR/LG's release after the Hoenn adventures, it was safe to say after the third version of D/P, we was actually getting G/S DS.

It's also that I'm going to speculate a Y/C remake as well.

[Solar]

Well, there was evidence before already, so it's not too surprising, but it is a VERY good thing.

YOU ARE ALL WRONG.

THEY ARE ANNOUNCING POKEMON SNAP 2.

NOOOOOOOOOOO, don't make me hope for it and then crush all of my hopes D:

[The Drunken Dishwasher]

...

Is Pokemon Snap really THAT good? (I never played it, sorry)

[Gaia]

I have the physical copy, why else would it be that good?

[Rad Lionheart]

I bought Pokemon Snap for my sister's birthday last year.
Yeah, it's pretty fun.
It'd be even longer, and even more fun with today's Nintendo Wii.

[Solar]

...

Is Pokemon Snap really THAT good? (I never played it, sorry)

It's much more fun than you ever imagined photographing pokemon would be.

[The Drunken Dishwasher]

heh.....*adds it to future VC buy list*

My interest is piqued~

[Archer]

This better be true.

And Pokemon Snap is fun. Pity I don't have it anymore.

[HokutoNoBen]

YOU ARE ALL WRONG.

THEY ARE ANNOUNCING POKEMON SNAP 2.

Why can't it be both? The Wii could use a REALLY good Pokemon game, and a DS remake of G/S/C is inevitable.

[Nexus]

I didn't jump onto the remake bandwagon for Fire Red and Leaf Green, me being fed up with the series as is. Since I didn't play this part of the series, it doesn't seem to change my mind.  

Also, Pokemon Snap was awesome. A way to interact with Pokemon without battles and capturing, that wasn't such a cash-in as later attempts became. That, and the fact that a picture-taking game actually had DEPTH.

[Sparky]

I'm fully accepting of a GS remake, but just as long as they make some harmless additions to the game.

Like putting in a new haunting. I was HEARTBROKEN when they axed Pokemon Tower! 

[Harruhy]

I'm really uncertain about this... but it'd be awesome.

Also, Pokemon Snap 2? That would be great too.

[Bag of Magic Food]

But if they remake all the old games, then they'll end up remaking the remakes!  It's madness I tell you!

[Protoman Blues]

Either a Gold/Silver DS remake or a fully fledged Wii Pokemon game combining all the regions would be good, thanx!

[Sakura Leic]

Either a Gold/Silver DS remake or a fully fledged Wii Pokemon game combining all the regions would be good, thanx!

So that would mean we have to get 24 gym badges, deal with 25 gym leaders, beat 18 or so eilte four members, kick the asses of 6 rivals, mop the floor with over 500 weak trainers, defeat 4 evil organizations, save the world like 2 times, catch 493 or more pokemon, pulverize 600 Magikarps, and maim 200 pikachus! 

If I got something wrong I'm sorry and I suck at math.

[Satoryu]

i'd be fine with just a 3D combo of GSC. but i think that's too rich of an idea for Ninty to think up. they're probably going to stick with the archaic system still used by DPP. sure they keep adding features and mons in each generation, but Pokemon has yet to truly evolve for me (pun not intended). a full fledged 3D Pokemon would do just that for me. cause as it is right now, i don't think i'll ever touch a 2D Pokemon again.

also, [tornado fang] YES to Snap 2.

[Dr. Wily II]

Well, with all the little hints here and there in both the anime and games, I'm really not surprised.
Though fighting the 16 gym leaders, and THE champion...
