More Black/White Pokemon revealed

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

That black looks sexy, but I think I'll be getting white first.

And I'm still miffed they haven't satisfied my desire for HeartGold/SoulSilver-themed DSs.

Or a Mewtwo themed DS. That would make my day every time I held it in my eager little hands.

Nope, if you want a gold DS then there is the Zelda one and there is a silver ds but its not affiliated with any game.

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

still sad that this is a DS game and not a 3DS game, but oh well, maybe the next generation will be 3DS

Never the less I will still be getting Black and will enjoy this one alot.

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

I'm sure it would look amazing if it were for 3DS, since then my Pokemon could actually pop out of the screen to show them being closer to me.

But oh well. It's only a 3 year gap between generations.

Well, it looks like 3DS won't have a shortage of RPGs anyway, as Paper Mario, a Tales of the Abyss game and a Kingdom Hearts game are already planned. SE seems to already be reviving plans for the FFV and FFVI remakes because they cited DS cards didn't have the space to contain them. SE is also awfully mum abou Dragon Quest X ever since 3DS came around, plans for it to be a Wii game may have changed.

None of them are Pokemon, but they sure will pass the time. I'm pretty sure Capcom doesn't want to say anything about Monster Hunter right now, at least not til the next PSP game is out the door, probably also the case for all the MH clones Namco, SE and Sega are cooking up for PSP at present. I fully expect to see them happen, though.

I think Kojima also hinted at the possibility of bringing Peace Walker over.

I'm curious how Pokemon would take advantage of the 3DS. They've stuck with the retro feel for so long and I'm sure some of the structure and design would be the same, even to the point of making the pokemon themselves look even more animated and lively.

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

Well, some of the environments are already kind of pseudo 3D (compared to the old tile-based environments), so presumably they could redo those in real 3D. I don't think it would add much to the battle screen though.

But even if Black and White aren't on the 3DS, I'm sure there will be a generation that is, eventually, if the 3DS has enough sales to justify it. (Making the main games on the 3DS *now* would be a bad idea commercially, since the regular DS has a *much* bigger user base, and it's much easier to convince a 3DS user to buy a DS game than to convince a DS user to buy a 3DS game and a new system to play it on.)

Overall, though, I don't think the Pokemon main series would benefit much from 3D because of the type of games they are. Compared to something like a FPS, platformer, or flight sim, where the 3D-ness of the gameworld is already a crucial part of the game, you just can't see it directly on a 2D screen, 3D just has nothing to do with the gameplay of a Pokemon game, and gratuitous 3D would be a bad idea as long as the user base disparity is as big as it is right now.

Somewhat related, the Black & White related Pokemon anime is out. Pokémon: Best Wishes! - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia!

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

They got rid of Brock Obama again? Tsk tsk.

I'm tempted to watch at least one episode to see how cute Wotter looks animated.

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

Well, the new Pokemon adventure has begun, at least on an on-and-off-basis - the backlog is kinda backing up this month.

When prompted boy or girl - I chose Boy cuz Girl looked like jailbait.



The intro was quite streamlined this time out. you met your friends who have replaced the rival you would just name Douche or something anyway. They pick a pokemon after you picked yours.

I picked Tepig for he is bacon that cooks itself. He evolves into Pignite and Emboar. He is very punny.



Interestingly, The Presidents of the United States of America have a song for Pokemon Black/White.

They played the launch event in New York, they also played "Lump," (referencing Weird Al's parody "Gump" right at the end) "Backporch" and "Peaches." They actually played a few more than that.

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

New pokemon are looking pretty fucking stupid. I don't remember if I've already made this comment, but they're becoming more and more abstract. Eventually, they'll be collections of shapes with random names.

You've just gotten too old, Dak.

Re: More Black/White Pokemon revealed

Maybe. Back in the day you could tell what the monsters were; starfish, birds, lizards, magicians, rodents, insects, various mythical creatures to name a few. Now, that plant monster looks like he's a poster-thing for 'haters gonna hate', and I have no fucking idea what that blue thing is. The orange thing is a pig? With bunny ears? And a sunny disposition? I'm pretty sure they roll around in the mud specifically to escape the heat of the sun, and now they're fire pokemon? Come on.
