[Shaymin]

SERIOUS YELLING AND SCREAMING
my favourite gen YES COME TO ME
november is my birth month HELL YEAH GIVE IT TO MEEEEEEEEEEE

[The Macintosh Ninja: SOH CAH TOA]

Well, I just checked the US Pokémon website and the UK website. Unless this is some sort of elaborate hoax (which, given the names I thought it was), this looks to be confirmed.

I hope they bring back Secret Bases. Toss in a ton of extra customization options and I shall be a happy ninja. Oh, and maybe the art style of X and Y, trainer customization, etc. You know, keep the things people liked.

[Awkward Squirtle]

I've not even played the originals and I'm excited. Curse you for getting there first, I wanted to get it in there.

Sounds good.

Are those megas for Kyogre and Groudon on the box art?

[Inferna]

HOLY CRAP ACTUAL GEN 3 REMAKES I'M SO EXCITED JHDBJASD

omgomgomgomgomg

100000x more excited than i am when hgss was announced and i thought that would be impossible!!!!!

[Meowstic Royalty]

Heonn confirmed.

Hoenn ACTUALLY FREAKING CONFIRMED.

I dont actually have a 3DS but still.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE -

Comercially, this is not convincent.

Pokémon was released the 12th of October of 2013, and another game of that kind only a year after could mean that Nintendo could not sell enough Pokémon X and Y units. Although... who knows if PokéManiacs will make the L4D case happen again?

Third Generation was good for me (my third favourite, actually), but... it might happen that Hoenn will be like "Snake Eater" for 3DS: in both world, a lot of details exist, and Snake Eater was precisely rated down because of the excessive rendering time. I hope this does not happen with those, if they actually are released given this date.

uh i'm fairly sure nintendo sold a ton of xy units? it got a lot of people back into pokemon because of the uniqueness of it (ie, customisation, 3dness, etc) and this will play on people's love of hoenn - lots of people will go "oh my god i love ruby/sapphire/emerald and i already have a 3ds so let's get it" cause heck i know i'm buying one for me and for my brother who hasn't played pokemon since he threw down black in a fit of anger cause he was super stuck

plus people will still buy xy. i've seen so many people online who are still look like the basic trainers meaning they probably only just started

[Delicious_Scout]

Well, as I said before, L4D case can be fairly similar; L4D2 was launched exactly one year after L4D and they are still top-percentage sellers. Because of fandom, VALVe, discounts and hats. Pokémon might be the next similar thing, as I can see thanks to your geek approach enthusiasm.


Although... why did not they show any screenshot? It was done with X and Y.

[rapidash king]

i'm doing backflips over here i am so excited

i'm ready for the soothing sounds of trumpets blasting in my ears

[Danatales]

i am so ready for this oh my goD I'VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG is it november yet

COME BACK TO ME MY HOMELAND OF HOENN TAKE ME AWAY

[Petzbreeder]

I herd you liek remakez!

Its about time!
Ruby and Sapphire were my favourite games before X and Y came out.

[Spriter]

YEEEEEEHAWWWWWW.

I dropped bricks from a certain area when I saw that the youtube link in the OP was genuinely a pokemon official announcement.

Now, there's someone (or two people) missing...

RICH. UTACK. Opinions please

(is Utack still around or?)

[SaRo|Rapidash]

My boyfriend showed me these today and... idk what to think. I mean, the box art looked kinda official but the video showed no gameplay footage and didn't look very Nintendo-y to me.

Maybe it's just me being weird or whatever, I mean Hoenn remakes have got to the point where any announcement is in automatic doubt, but eh.

ALSO, alpha is Arceus' species name, and shiny creation trio from gen V xD (I'm adamant these will do something eventually even though they obvs won't =P)
