    So plenty of people are happy about the news of these remakes, and plenty of people...are not. Considering I've already seen quite a few complaints here about these remakes - for all those people, here you go, a place for you to vent amid all the speculation threads.

    Remember, though - keep things civil. Feel free to say what bugs you about these games, whether it's the games themselves or certain features or whatever, but keep the thread flame-free.

    (And as a notice: please, if you disagree with anything said in this thread, don't report it just because you don't agree.)

    ........you guys can make (and sticky) complaint threads? Wow, why didn't I find this place sooner? On-topic, as i've said before, I do not like the new female design as it just...eck. Giant hat and Mario's wardrobe being raided, doesn't look "trendy" as most have claimed. Just looks almost as goofy as Lucas's platinum clothing...if he needed to do worse than to prove how fashionably challenged he is beyond his beret. Other than that, if Honey trees are back, add that to th list.

    … I can't believe that there is one. Is the complaints for HG/SS that bad?

    So, what's going to happen to all the complaint threads now?

    First, Dungeon gets a sequel. Then Ranger gets a sequel. Now Dungeon's getting another sequel. To top it all off, G/S are being remade. WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO MAKE TROZEI 2!!!

    Also, new female. Don't like.

    I would have much rather seen Gold and Kris make a comeback. They had fantastic clothes, as well as basic design.

    I MISS KRIS!!!!!!

    that is all.

    This is a foolish thread.

    You're just inviting people to bash opinions and start flamewars.

    Jake, is that you?

    Anyway, I'm not COMPLETELY happy with the female's design, it could of been a lot worse (like Lucas from DPPt). Also, I hope the name's are changed when released in English.

    Watch when this thread equals the HG/SS Speculation Thread in terms of posts and views, at this rate... *sighs* :P

    On-Topic: Absolutely NO complaints yet! And I hope I don't have any in the future! :)

    My only complaint is that my Gold game was stolen before I even got to Kanto so I can't properly compare them =)

    Seriously, there's only a few scans. What's there to complain about so far?

    Though I will miss the pathetically horrid graphics (by today's standards) of the original GSC. Of course they have to remakes those though.

    My only complaint is the lack of Kris/Marina. It's like they're pretending Crystal version never existed. Kind of a continuity lapse, and I preferred Kris's design to this rather plain looking new trainer.

    Also, the starter following you around is something I never really cared for, but it's not bothersome, and enough people requested it, so whatever.

    Other than that, I love you, GF! Keep up the good work! :D

    yea that is my one dislike on it all. But then who knows, maybe they'll remake crystal too. I know they didn't remake yellow but yellow had like no story differences. crystal did have some abeit few. and since it's on ds who knows.



    I am looking forward to these games though :] will save complaints for when alot more info is out and i actually play it.

    Well, I read somewhere that Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum, all those 3rd games, aren't considered "canon" in the pokemon continuity.

    Maybe?

    So far, the only turn off is the replacement of Crystal by this not-so-cute new girl. Some people like her appearance, but I'm too used to my beloved Crystal.

    Meh. Kris has been replaced by...this farmgirl who is Mario-esque.(I'm a Mario fan) I'm not EXTREMELEY happy about that, but at least there is nothing else to complain about. =-]

    I'll agree with Yellow, but at least for Emerald and Platinum, they seem to expand on the established plotlines involving the evil teams and the legendaries. If anything, the third partner games are more canon than the first two.

    Crystal is kind of up in the air. While certainly you can argue that it's not canon, it did bring in several key innovations seen in the later games, including the Battle Tower and the first playable female trainer.

    Since Kris was the first playable female, introducing the feature, it seems only fair, as a nod to her significance, to make her the female trainer in HG/SS. It's also the only consistent choice.

    There seems to be a concensus of opinion, here; why the hell is there a new female Trainer? Replacing Krystal makes no sense whatsoever.

    Well, whatever; maybe she's still in the game somewhere.........still wouldn't make sense.
