4th Gen A G/S Remake?

[MiTjA]

would the sales of the md game really drop because of gsds?

They're absolutely different games. I don't think it would affect them that much.

 

[Mitchman]

They actually would. That is why they always only release one game type per year. If its MD that gets the year its MD. But you never know. MD could be out by may and they release the gs remakes in december january.

 

[The Wave]

Look. The new MD game is out this year most likely before september in japan. Now if a gs remake where to come along by this year then the sales of the new MD game would drop. So unfortunately no remake this year.

ah I see, and yes, I agree with you. but look what I said. I've said that there should be an announcement or the slightest hint that there WILL be a G/S remake, not that it will be announced to be released this year.

 

[Mitchman]

In that i totally agree. If they show it in march then they could easily have it december january as it would take time to make being on a whole new system instead of an improvment of a gmae aka 3rd version.

Don't forget they'be also yet to release Platinum in the US, and then everywhere else as well. Any news about a GS remake may simply interest people enough to not buy what is a spin-off game in MD3, or a DP game with extra features, but wait and save money for both, rather than buy both.

Basically, they'll be wanting to focus on what they've got planned now and release/announce things once at a time. But a GS remake *could* be announced later this year, IF it's being made and they want to release it soon after Platinum, that is.

yeah,well.but don't forget that the dsi doesn't have a gba slot,so in case that u want YOUR johto pokemon,what are u going to do?u NEED something,u NEED a gsc remake.
in general,i agree with that guy who post about the dsi.

I am not a guy if you are referring to me.

This page say that a remake is an updated rereleased version of a video game so wouldn't that means that a remake will not take as long as a new game to be remade. Though I agree that if they make a Gold and Silver remake for a while that is if they announce going to be a remake because the new Pokemon Mystery Dungeon may not sell well. Though if they were making a remake it would most likely come out this year since it would be Pokemon Gold and Silver tenth anniversary, but who knows. I heard this game called Final Fantasy III had a remake that came out approximately 16 years after it orginal game was released because the developing company had trouble remaking it. If they do not do a GS remake I will settle for a rereleased even though it is not guarantee that the Pokemon Gold and Silver games will be even rereleased.

I really don't buy the whole "THE YPUT THE DATA IN D/P SO THEY MUST BE MAKING ONE" theory. Games, including Pokemon, put a lot of data in. For franchises that feature some sort of compatibility with other games, it can be seen as a precaution just in case it's needed for future comptability.

That being said, just because the data is there doesn't mean it'll ever be used. Way back in R/B, Professor Oak was supposed to be a battle. Even though the event that triggered the battle was taken out, Oak still has a team of Pokemon, and hacking can make the battle happen.

In D/P, Arceus has a ??? type programmed into it. ??? is the same type as the move Curse, and also is the type of many glitched Pokemon. It was probably never intended to be used, but to prevent the game crashing in case hackers ever made a ??? type plate.

The key item known as the S.S. Ticket is in the coding, but for some reason doesn't ellicit the same responses like "omgzers KANTO REMAKE to the max!" like Johto hints do.

It's correct that it's possible, but there's no reason to get your hopes up. There's nothing wrong with speculating, but as long as no one makes a "G/S remake or I'm done with Pokemon post", I think I'll be able to respect this.

As for the copyrighting of names, any type of company copyrights random crap all the time for little or no reason. Often to prevent immitators from using similar names.

You know what i say? PMD 2 episode 2 is out in spring. I say give it out in late march and reveal us the main games in june issue. i know i said no 2 games in one year but that could mean reveal in may release in jan. I hope so i really do.

XD Yea,they always put Johto references into their games,and the anime. They're Johto-freaks.

What do copyrighted names do anyway,they're just names,they might just copyright them for no real reason.

It really wouldn't make scense if they made a Johto remake,unless it was for the 20th aniversary.
There is no real reason..Except,maybe,for the fans.

lol secretly, Johto is Nintendo's favorite region and they love it too.

 

[Mitchman]

I doubt that one a bit much but anyway who here is hoping they reveal this thing asap in other words 2 months after the PMD2 episode 2 release?

 

[The Wave]

I do hope that. *is shot*

 

[AuraAshley]

they should remake G/S that was nintendos best pokemon game so far in my opinion

If they are going to making the Johto remakes they will reveal them when they feel like it, so I am not going to hope it is going to be revealed in two months and I was told that sometimes things come when a person least expects them.

Was it really better than first generation games? I heard on another website that they sold more copies than the second generation games. Also please do not say that this were the best Pokemon games this will alienate people who like the other Pokemon games.

Indeed - very true. it's hard to deny that there is date (heck, I've even seen it first-hand myself thanks to friends with hack-power), but it doesn't mean that they will use it.

But it does show one thing - a GS remakes has been seriously considered by them - enough to put the coding in. And it isn't necessary coding either, I don't believe. In the third gen games they didn't put in 'From Orr' beforehand for the Pokemon from Colo/Xd - I think they simply went around not having that set in and programmed into Orre/XD that all Pokemon will just come from a 'Distant Land'. So it wasn't actually necessary to do it, which adds a bit more to it. But as you said - it's far from a guarantee that it'd be made.

And then there's the other things that scream GSC, that shows that they have indeed at least considered it. I hope that the coding will end up seeing some usage, but one shall have to wait and see.

The key item known as the S.S. Ticket is in the coding, but for some reason doesn't ellicit the same responses like "omgzers KANTO REMAKE to the max!" like Johto hints do.

Umm... I actually heard a lot in the way of people suggesting that the third game, one would go to Kanto. >_< Of course, they were wrong...

Also true. And as I believe I said earlier, they don't even have to copyright things as they are a big game company with plenty of $$$ - hence the fact there had been a website domain name for Pokemon Platinum taken by a small forum being no issue for them when they announced the name Platinum. So it really doesn't mean much at all.

It really wouldn't make scense if they made a Johto remake,unless it was for the 20th aniversary.

Disagree. FR/LG hadn't been made for for an aniversary primarily, nor primarily that they needed a way to give people certain Pokemon that gen (like how a few, albeit less Pokemon are missing from the 4th gen games that happen to have been found in GSC). But they wouldn't have done FR/LG - a remake game - if they thought it wouldn't have sold and made them money. That's all the reason they need - a promise of making $$$ from a game - and it's by far the sole factor they look into if the product can be made (which it can). A GS remake could easily deliever that - look at the demand!

Plus - they can always use some other aniversary if they want (say ten years since GS or Crystal?).

To be fair, she did say 'in my opinion', so she wasn't forcing that concept onto you or anyone else - just stating what she thought.

Oh I am sorry I overlooked that part of her post where she said 'in my opinion'.:embarrass

 

[Raven-NAR-32450]

i did find a ROM "Hack" of Fire Red version that resembles Crystal version at a site called "Doperoms" its fun, it has all of the aspects of G/S/C but since its a ROM "Hack" it has a few minor bugs in it

 

[Underoos]

I think they should make a g/s/c remake. Maybe they could release it after they release Platnium, though.

 

[Precious Tears]

I have to say they'll release the remake within June to October of this year.
Dunno why, it's just my hunch... lol

 

[Mitchman]

Tcch your mixing up the info months with release munch icicle. Its more logical of winter 09/10 to spring for the release.
