[Dragoon En Regalia]

I dig the logos.



I have some crow for you losers, why don't you have some?

But we all lost to Masuda-san and his magical sequelitis. So there's that.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

So, uh, how long for more concrete details?

So, yeah, props to Orgen

What the hell? How was this even guessed? =P

 

[Poyunch]

For once Reshiram looks cooler than Zekrom.

Spoiler

Even though they're both Kyurem

 

[Diddy Kong]

Serebii changed it to DS.

 

[upandaway]

ORGEN.

REDEEMED.

That's crazy dude.

 

[JohnTinker]

my head hurts, what the what

 

[WrenchNinja]

How were they sequels?

GSC takes place three years after the events of RBY, and we see the ramifications of those events.

 

[Chris1964]

Someone tag this man for being a prophet.

More like having good sources.

 

[InsaneZero]

This is just so many degrees of wat that I can't even begin to wrap my head around it.

 

[Vanille]

DS? Are they out of their minds?

Gotta think of the importers man.

 

[Suairyu]

I have some crow for you losers, why don't you have some?

Andrex your faith was wavering towards the end I'm glad I didn't lose you but next time you gotta believe more a'ight?

Also I relinquish my OT claim to Orgen if he wants it.

 

[Danielsan]

It probably will take at least till 2013 before we see a mainline 3DS Pokémon title. Hopefully this means they are actually putting effort into the 3DS version and make it a significant step up from the DS games. Meanwhile they can do their cash grab with these two games. I don't care as long as it means more dev time for the 3DS titles.

 

[Busaiku]

ORGEN.

REDEEMED.

HOLY CRAP

 

[Javier]

So I'm guessing we're traveling to a nearby country?

TAKE YOUR GUESSES PEOPLE CANADA OR MEXICO

 

[Mpl90]

June? Quiick. So, maybe it isn't considered a big big big project? Still hope for September? XD

 

[Roto13]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha, what. Pokemon Grey is its own pair of games.

Also DS. Lame. Pokemon would be perfect for 3DS.

 

[Sendou]

Okaaaaaaay... So I wonder if this includes more stuff than the previous 3rd versions did? Even a whole new story could be nice.

 

[V_Ben]

...I don't understand. The 3DS is selling, why make one for the DS? Hopefully they're making a new one for 3DS.

 

[Zerokku]

Please be 3DS!!!!

Serebii surely aren't lying when they say 3DS!

Serebii is filled with a bunch of hacks.

Back when HG/SS (I think it was anyways) came out in japan, Serebii mysteriously got their review copies about an hour and a half after the games had leaked out on the internet. When I popped onto their forums and made a thread wondering how the hell a western fan-site got their copies before anyone else (making the obvious implications there), I got banned for like a month.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Surely Black is the *absence* of any electromagnetic radiation?

That's why it's Black 2; it's like black, but better. Trust me, just don't look at it too long or your eyes will fall out. Really stylish though, it goes with anything.

 

[Wichu]

So, is this a new game continuing the story of B&W or the same game with a little bit of new content?

Looks like story sequels. I doubt they'd release two carbon-clones of B/W.

 

[Emitan]

I dig the logos.



I have some crow for you losers, why don't you have some?

I said Grey would be on 3DS. This isn't Grey. How am I wrong?

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

why does Nintendo hate 3DS owners

LOL, oh god. You're kidding right?

 

[ZeroGravity]

I don't mind this. It's obviously too soon for the next-generation, and this is a lot cooler than getting a simple Pokemon Grey.

 

[PixyJunket]

I don't play Pokémon but I was really hoping for a pair of 3DS games so my StreetPass plaza would blow up.

Ah well, it'll come in due time, I suppose.

 

[JonathanEx]

We have the strict 3rd version release plans for a reason, it makes things easier!

I mean, I know the 3rd version can be a sendoff of a console, but two games? And by the US/EU release the 3DS will probably have been out 2 years!

Well. Consider me shocked.


...I'll probably buy it anyway mind I'm a sucker like that. Actually, third version, might not. I'll let it surprise me with a feature.

 

[Valnen]

DS? Are they out of their minds?

No, they're doing something smart for once.

 

[MasterShotgun]

...The fuck?

1) Numbered mainline sequels.

2) DS release (does Nintendo hate 3DS sales?)

3) Freaky Kyurem alt forms

Of course I'll get one, but I just don't understand the thought process.

 

[Snakeyes]

I'm sure there will be 3DS extras.

 

[Supermanisdead]

it's actually called pokemon 2 black and 2 white.

 

[The Lamp]

Never would have guess Black 2 and White 2, but I figured it would never be called Grey. That name just sucks. Who wants to buy something....grey?

 

[Gospel]

They'll probably do a 3DS hardware bundle with the games.

 

[P90]

Would have greatly preferred 3DS, but I'll buy any mainline Pokemon game.

 

[-WindYoshi-]

Masuda tweeted that it's compatible with the DS.

Spoiler

3DS enhancements?

That would be brilliant. The first truly cross platform game.

 

[WrenchNinja]

Holy shit, Zekrom and Reshiram are Digimon'd the hell out.

 

[Anth0ny]

My mind is fucking blown. I could have never predicted this.

June 2012? DS? Possibly a trilogy?!?

Will this game have a new region? If so, why is it called Black/White 2? If not, why isn't it just a single game (Grey)?

Coro Coro has a lot of explaining to do.

 

[Tunavi]

Wait what? there isn't a single remake but there are 2? Thats new...

 

[Frost_Ace]

I don't have anything else to say except:

mind=blown.

 

[milesdm]

Black & White 2 for DS, NOT 3DS? Molyneux, you're crazy!

 

[Emitan]

Serebii is filled with a bunch of hacks.

Back when HG/SS (I think it was anyways) came out in japan, Serebii mysteriously got their review copies about an hour and a half after the games had leaked out on the internet. When I popped onto their forums and made a thread wondering how the hell a western fan-site got their copies before anyone else (making the obvious implications there), I got banned for like a month.

Don't forget the copy protection in B/W that causes zero XP gain and they said the beginning of the game just doesn't give you XP, which was bullshit. Serbii makes up shit all the time.

 

[wrowa]

What the hell? How was this even guessed? =P

He didn't guess, he always said that it was told to him by a "source". It just happened that no one believed him.

 

[CassSept]

ORGEN.

REDEEMED.

How in the...

 

[kurahador]

Pokemon Black 2 & White 2? :/
why not Pokemon Charcoal & Milk? why??

 

[BadTaste]

Fine by me, I only have a DS anyway =p

 

[The Emperor]

pokemon gsc started as pokemon 2, they were a continuation of team rocket, etc.

ahhh okay I see.

But this is different in the sense it's just ONE game that's a sequel right?

 

[Mr Swine]

I guess that means they're saving Gen 6 to be the first 3DS pokemon game which we may get next year.

We won't get it next year, too close to this years Pokemon game (

 

[ShironRedshift]

*StarWolfIDon'tBelieveIt.avi*

But seriously... definitely didn't see this coming. Nonetheless though, can't wait~ This should be interesting.

 

[Wichu]

Wait what? there isn't a single remake but there are 2? Thats new...

Not remakes, sequels. Hence the '2' in the titles.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

What a mess. We all got booked.
