In spite of what one may think, frankly, I'm quite happy for Nintendo.

I'm a pokemon fan, so this is good news i guess.
though I can't believe how many copies firered/leafgreen sold.... those games were kinda dull for me

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

I would really love to see a NEW Pokemon. I love the series, but I really am sick of the same adventure with different names.

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

That would be constructive. They don't want progress just yet, their same tired formula is still making them huge bank.

Shadow story or Pokemon Master story? I'll choose the shadow story any day.

And the sales of Pokemon games was helped by the fact that 90% of the handheld games are multiple versions of each other. I'm one of the unlucky people who was fooled into buying all three versions of the original game and the GS game.

Hopefully Pokemon Diamond and Pearl will take advantage of the DS' Wi-Fi capabilities and make it possible to trade/battle online with others. That aspect alone would be great.

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

It would be even more great if Diamond and Pear were one version.

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

I gave up on Pokemon when the GBA games turned out to be pretty much the same as the earlier ones. With the absolute minimum of graphical and gameplay additions. I figured with the more powerful system would mean a very different, much improved game. Obviously not.

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

I gave up on Pokemon when the thought of "catching 'em all" suddenly became a chore.

That was around when my Charmander got to level 10 or so.


I would get back into it if they turned it into some kinda huge MMORPG thing, but I'm not counting on it just yet.

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

That would definitely sell in droves.

Re: 100 Million Pokemon

Well, the shadow story doesn't sound bad, but it's the fact that you have to catch them from other people.
Making a walk around in grass and finding them would be cooler IMO, but the traditional "I wanna become a master, but i don't know what the heck a trainer is or anything" is getting pretty old.
I haven't gave up on Pokemon yet, but I'm getting there.
*calls nintendo*
"add more elements to pokemon games!!"
*slams phone*
..... oops

On the bright side, no random battles.
