Exactly. Actually I was planning on getting to rom anyways, since it's hackable. Also I think I've heard this somewhere here before but now I really believe Nintendo is recycling old Pokemon. Just look at that fire monkey and I dare you to say it looks nothing like Primape! Not to mention they constantly recycle pidgey in birds like Starly, now they're doing it again in Black/White with Mamepato!
I can also see a similarity of the Gear Pokemon to Magnemite's evolutionary base. For example, I'm sure they will make it's evolution 3 or 4 gears instead of 2.
I am also really disappointed in Reshiram and Zekrom now, well mostly Reshiram.
Zekrom:
I like the idea of Electric/Dragon although it's kinda like WTF because Zekrom is black, I'd really hoped it would be a Dark/Dragon type.
Reshiram:
I can't even begin to explain how horrible this surprise was. I was like "oh please don't let this be true" because honestly, Fire/Dragon?! I really had my hopes up for either Flying/Dragon or Ice/Dragon (New, unique combination). First of all Reshiram is white and has a turbine-like tail. Why in the world would it be part fire? --- I really am not going to get Pokemon Black JUST because of Reshiram now. (Will get Pokemon White, reluctantly because I am a fan)
As for the crocodile Pokemon it looks like Nintendo recycled Hippopotas. And the Zebra one looks like Nintendo recycled Girafarig.
Ohh and it also looks like they're recycling the DPPt Pokedex on the outside and updating the inside. You remember the DPPt Pokedex Sugimori Art, right? The new Pokedex's Art looks a lot like DPPt's Sugi art to me.
When I got down to the Wi-Fi details I was like "Oh Gawd" and then I looked through it, and I might actually like it but I'll need a lot more information before I am certain. I like the idea of Random Matches because players will actually be able to use strategies without the other player knowing their strategy, such as if I versed you, then I versed you again soon after you'd know how I like to battle. However with random matches it is not always this way. Not to mention that players can verse people in other countries, according to Nintendo.
I also like that they finally switched the Professor to a female, all the Professors in the past have ONLY been male in games. I mean it's good that they used males, but ya gotta have feminine Professors to balance it out too.
Overall I think the gameplay will be awesome but the Pokemon are completely overkill. (This statement is based on what we currently know)
