Hey, I was wondering... What's that Pokemon Farm, Ranch or anything else that I keep reading about some places ?!

Basically it is going to be the Wii's version of Pokemon Box. You upload your Pokemon from Diamond and Pearl, where they are stored in a Pokemon "farm". The Pokemon are of course gone in your D/P game.

hahaha that seems original :P
What about that WiiWare...
Is that some kind of "Wii Shop" like when you buy old-school NES games from Wii Points ?!

Is there already an idea of how much will it cost ?!

wolverfrog March 2nd, 2008 8:52 AM

not sure, but i wager it'll cost about 2k points, roughly £14

Le_Avatar March 2nd, 2008 10:33 AM

Thanks a lot :)
I'll keep an eye on it

Well this Pokemon Farm is like Pokemon box but for your Wii and you talk and do stuff with your Pokemon and its pretty cool because you can take pictures and stuff.

Heh, I doubt it. Full-blown N64 games cost 1000 points, and this isn't even a full game, so why in the world would it cost that much??

It'll probably be somewhere around 600-800 points.

Le_Avatar March 2nd, 2008 6:26 PM

Yeah I think it could be cool...
Storage is always something good when you breed like crazy to get all kind of decent pokes :)

Circuit March 16th, 2008 5:52 AM

That would be handy especialy since I have my pokemon cluttering up my boxes. I have read about Pokemon farm and the reviews say it is rubbish, old-fashioned and a waste of money. I'll try it out though, could be good.

Yoshiko75 March 16th, 2008 6:56 AM

It is confirmed that the game will be released in Japan on March 25 for 1,000 Wii Points.

Tanro March 16th, 2008 2:37 PM

Farm is really game and its only a waste of money if your not a collector freak.

Espreon March 16th, 2008 2:41 PM

The only downside to it is that it uses the abomination (aka Mii) styled graphics... I bet if I put my Dialga there it would only be 4 feet tall (from what I have seen on some screenshots for tall Pokes) and it would be pudgy...

ngtank March 18th, 2008 10:00 PM

1000 points are rather 10 dollars, see your pokemon in a realy odd but adorable art style as you interact with them and this chick tells you cool stuff about your pokemon!

Le_Avatar March 19th, 2008 4:42 AM

When will they release it for North America ?! ;)

No official release date for the US yet. But this seems like a cute idea to me :3.

But this is wii not N64.

*Puts prediction upto 1200 points*
EDIT: saw Yoshiko's post. 1000 points I guess...

Circuit March 29th, 2008 3:21 PM

Any idea when it will be realeased in UK? Sounds cool now no reveiws will stop me :D!

Le_Avatar March 29th, 2008 3:47 PM

Yeah that will be cool I think, but no official dates have been released I think

Well Diamond and Pearl was released in America like a half a year after it was released in Japan (I think). Farm is a lot less functional than an RPG so maybe if we are lucky, in like 1-3 months.

See! I was right!

Isn't that scary?!?!

And according to the Japanese WiiWare site Pokemon Farm will cost 1000 Wii Points.

$10 to see my Dialga suffer as a deranged dwarf? I don't think so.

Sounds cute <3 I want a pudgy Dialga.

austin00081 April 12th, 2008 10:11 PM

I think it looks fun, new, and cute.
Pokemon hasn't done something like this before (from what I know of).
And it is a great way for a pokefreak to waste a couple of dollars on.

I cannot wait for this to come, because when it does, I will be getting it and getting those unused pokemon off of my DS.

also

Spoiler:
you can get a mew from it after transfering 999 pokemon to it.

A Loc BK April 12th, 2008 11:16 PM

gives me a reason to open those eggs i have in my storage boxes =x
and a new place to store them xD

BakingBluePotatoe April 12th, 2008 11:48 PM

anyone have a pic of a LUCARIO in this thing? 8D

I swear... I'm going to stab somebody if I don't have a Wii before this comes out! >.<
