Support NeoGAF

[Omzz]

I think I might need to upgrade to 3DSXL now

 

[Lindsay]

Way more than I expected. Waaay more.

You said they wouldn't be 2013 in the west!

No break for tired western trainers!

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

When will the trailers go up? I missed most of it!

 

[MetalGuardian]

I'M GOING TO RIDE THAT WATER FROG FROAKIE INTO THE PACIFIC OCEAN TO SWIM AND EXPLORE AND SHIT FOR THE NEXT TEN MONTHS UNTIL I HAVE THIS GAME IN MY VEINS

YYYYEEEESSSSS

 

[ffdgh]

Going with X since my name starts with it lol.

 

[Wurst]

So this games region is Europe? (Eiffel Tower)

Awesome!

 

[Madao]

oh fuck. didn't see that coming

 

[Supreme Stephan]

The Y logo looks like the legendary Pokemon seen in the video.

 

[grandjedi6]

Iwata: 3DS sales about to fall behind the DS's? SIMULTANEOUS POKEMON LAUNCH, GEN VI

 

[kittens]

Logos are fugly, world is kinda janky, battles look awesome, grass starter is the best, Y version superior. (Or whatever version has the stag.)

That's more or less my take on this, too.

 

[denshuu]

Thank God it wasn't another remake. I swear I have no idea why Gaf has such a hardon for devs who literally make the same game over and over.

Froakie is that dude.

 

[stktt]

So good.

 

[KAL2006]

I've only played Pokemon Red, Silver, Ruby and Diamond. Never played Red/Blue remake or Silver/Gold remake or Black/White 1 and 2. Will jump in the Pokemon bandwagon for this.

 

[Ashodin]

FENNEKIN I CHOOSE YOU

Always go with the firestarters!

 

[EVOL 100%]

Maybe it's because I hopped on the hype train for kicks literally a minute before the conference started, but this is the first time that I've ever been hyped for a Pokemon game.

 

[NeonZ]

I couldn't watch it due to being at work...

X = the stag legendary Y = the bird legendary.

What's Z?

Why are you assuming that there's going to be a Z? They might just release a X 2/Y 2 again.

[Why would you do that?]

Day one. Thank you, Game Freak.

Graphics don't look too good.

I am a bit iffy on the graphics too, but it doesn't matter too much to me. I like how "crazy" the overworld looks, i.e. the rope swinging, spider web thing, etc.

 

[Boney]

i'll take Fynx

my mannn

 

[Despera]

Trailer link?

 

[Hours Left]

I need sleep.

 

[Cranzor]

Wow, I'm really excited for this now. The new look is fantastic, I think. The worldwide release is also excellent. October can't come soon enough!

 

[Big One]

Finally people can shut up about the games having sprites.

 

[Hobby]

 

[Pikma]

POKEMEGAFUCKINGTON

I'm already in love with Froakie!

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Z to be the official Third version.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Finally, the battles move into full 3D. Seemed like pretty nice cel-shading too.

 

[urfe]

Not a Pokemon fan, but this just may draw me back in if it was great Street Pass features, and a decent story.

I really liked playing through Blue all those years ago. Just never got into hardcore training etc.

 

[eternalb]

In case it hasn't been posted, here's a video of the gameplay they showed off

http://youtu.be/hLF9_geQCAE

God it looks glorious

 

[Dennis]

Pokemon Gender Wars

 

[MrCookiepants]

Holy shit. 6th gen, full 3D and worldwide release. This was absolute best-case scenario.

Hype justified.

 

[EatChildren]

Yeesh, very underwhelming game graphics. Looks pretty rough.

 

[Kouriozan]

YEEEEES! Worldwide pokémon release! Full 3D! Exploration looks awesome! Battles too!
CAN'T WAIT!!

 

[HawthorneKitty]

So genetics?

 

[Rubius]

The replay is there. Now I can see the video. The stream lagged so much that I didnt see ANYTHING.
Cant wait.

 

[Nilaul]

Starters?

New legendary?

Now fan art looks good

 

[Mush]

My laptop hates ustream with the passion of a thousand Fire Blasts, so I didn't get to see much.

But it looked like Pokemon.

 

[HardRojo]

They are going with the Red and Blue theme again, wonder if we'll be able to visit Hoenn in this game.

 

[GimMick]

The Pokémon Direct actually fucking delivered !!
3D, Awesome art style with cel-shading !
WORLDWIDE RELEASE !!!

Now which starter to choose now ?!

 

[TheCongressman1]

The style is awesome, but it's kind of a waste to keep the movement on a grid.

 

[Nosgoroth]

"Pokemon X" is now an official thing. Oh boy.

 

[Vermillion]

i'll take Fynx

I'm always about that superior fire starter, so I shall also be taking Fynx.

 

[Kurtofan]

Pikachu is in Paris!

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Nice, I'll be going with X since it's the cooler letter. Also, this shall be my first Pokemon game since Yellow.

 

[AniHawk]

simultaneous 2013 means:

-iwata really wants this out in europe and north america asap
-this is the last huge nintendo project we'll see from them before they focus on saving the wii u

 

[Wichu]

Going with X version. Stag legendary = badass.

Not sure which starter to pick, though. I kinda like Chespin.

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

I think the graphics could be worse. Given the short time-frame Game Freak had after Black & White, and their limited resources, this looks quite good and will probably look better over time.

The new male lead looks good, and I think it suits the next generation better than something more like B2/W2's.

 

[jokkir]

The graphics for the overworld seem kinda... bad. Other than that, HYPEE

Better than BW confirmed.

 

[Sendou]

I have to say I'm very okay with this. The new pokemons shown were good (especially the fire starter Fennekin.) If they had to drop sprites then this art-style is maybe the least worse choice.

But the craziest thing is it releasing the same time all over the world. Now Nintendo please do this with your other games (Animal Crossing *cough*)
