Pokemon Diamond & Pearl Patch on Everybody's Nintendo Channel
 
I don't know if anyone knows this but on the Japanese Nintendo channel "Everybody's Nintendo" they have released a patch for Diamond & Pearl, but there seems to be little news about what the patch actully contains, weather the JPN versions of the game have a fault or maybe to stop the glitches that allow them to the event only legendary's or if it new pokemon or a new region (ok the last two are a long shot because we would have heard somthing by now if it was new Pokemon or a new Region) but w/e it is hopefully it's somthing new that we can look forward to getting this month(yes the channel is out this month for everyone else).

Also if anyone does know what it is please tell us.

BakingBluePotatoe May 1st, 2008 2:08 PM

I thought they fixed the Darkmin glitch already?

I wonder what this could be....?

but, I MUST now: do you still have all your stuff (Pokemon, Items, Badges, ect.)? and, HOW do you get it? (do you download it and ur game is patched? or do you have to buy another D/P that has the patch?)

spike6958 May 1st, 2008 2:13 PM

You will download the patch through the Everybody's Nintendo channel onto you DS and then patch the game, you will not need a new game.

BakingBluePotatoe May 1st, 2008 2:33 PM

how do you do that, though? furthermore, will you lose anything you had before?

icycatelf May 1st, 2008 2:36 PM

Who knows? Maybe the patch will enable WI-FI Mystery Gift.

Supreme Dirt May 1st, 2008 2:52 PM

Well, the game itself only uses about 10% of the entire flash card, so I kinda saw this coming.
But this is awesome. Perhaps we can go to Johto now (which is what I have been predicting, as opposed to DuskGold and DawnSilver)

1. seriously? how do you know that?
2. but why would Nintendo let us DOWNLOAD a patch for that rather than just making another game? they'd lose Monies! O_O

Popuri May 1st, 2008 3:07 PM

They'll probably make us pay Wii Points for the patch or something retarded like that.

+Roxas+ May 1st, 2008 4:45 PM

yeah probally i just want pokemon ranch.

tylerowicz May 1st, 2008 5:37 PM

You will download it the same way you play Mulitplayer with just one Cart on DS games via download play, and as i said before there is no info about what the patch does but i highly doubt that Nintendo will release a patch that will remove anything from your game, also it is true that Pokemon Diamond and Pearl only use about 10% of there space so it is possible that a download containing Johto could become avaible to download, but i doubt this download will be it as we would have heard about it by now.

Everybody's Nintendo Channel is a channel on the Wii which will allow people to watch videos about upcoming Wii and DS games, and also allow's people to download Demos and Patches for DS games, and at the moment you cannot get it unless you have a Japanese Wii, but the channel will be released this month and will be downloadable via the Wii shop channel for free.

You will need to be in the same room as the Wii to get it so unless you have any friends who have Wii's or are able to get one soon you will not be able to get the new patch.

tylerowicz May 1st, 2008 6:25 PM

if one person has the patch downloaded can u mix records with em to get the patch?

No, as i said before you NEED to download the patch from the Everybodies Nintendo Channel it can only be transfered from that, so you NEED to be able to get to a Wii to get the patch.

tylerowicz May 1st, 2008 6:29 PM

awww
dam
i need to find someone with a wii

BakingBluePotatoe May 1st, 2008 8:04 PM

the wii is needed for this!?

OMFG... Now I REALLY need a Wii...
Dad, No more of your silly games! I NEED a Wii! >.<

HalcyonXIII May 1st, 2008 11:36 PM

^ *resists temptation to revive the old "Wii" jokes*

:P
*ahem* So curiosity speaking here, what was the source of your information?
To be honest, it isn't Nintendo's style to create big game-changing patches when, as ~KiTsUnE pointed out, they could make a whole new game and charge money for it.

Also, with the supposed 3rd 4th generation title on the way, why not include any major update in that? Heck, that's the whole purpose of it anyways - to reel in more money.
Anything that is present in this title that isn't in the current ones will give people more of an incentive to buy it. Actually, maybe it's something to do with Giratina's second form, because as far as I know, it isn't present in D/P at the moment.

Oh, and ~KiTsUnE is right, the Darkrai/Shaymin glitch only existed in early Japanese copies of D/P, so it isn't likely to be a patch for that.

_Prince_ May 2nd, 2008 12:33 AM

I suppose they want to fool the Japanese people and completely fix up the current glitch. They'll probably add some small features, mini game or something. It wouldn't be somthing major because not everyone has a wii.
I don't think Nintendo will add the new Giratina form, they probably save that for the 3rd d/p. So don't expect too much. ;)

Ársa May 2nd, 2008 12:42 AM

New Giratina form? Did I miss the memo? What's this about? o.0

dragonarche May 2nd, 2008 12:44 AM

A link? lol, it's everywhere? It's quite old news now. Where have you been? lol
You have to digg it out. Try Serebii, google, etc... ;) Just type in google ' New Giratina form'

Ársa May 2nd, 2008 12:59 AM

yeah, I just did. I checked the serebii thread. It's been around since Feb? o.0 Wow, I need to browse some more.

I don't think Nintendo will add the new Giratina form, they probably save that for the 3rd d/p. So don't expect too much. ;)

Specifically, I meant adding the sprite/moveset data so that it can exist on D/P, unless it will be like Deoxys in the GBA games and transform upon trading.

As far as I know, no one has found this information already in the game, so one would assume it doesn't exist there yet - hence me suggesting that's what the patch may be, in part at least.

And how exactly would they fix the cloning glitch?
A patch to stop your finger from pressing the power button whilst the game is saving? :P

Maybe they'll be some sort of GTS update so you can view more information or make more specific requests.
That sounds like wishful thinking though -_-

~CyberKitsune09~ May 8th, 2008 7:49 PM

The Nintendo Channel Is out in the USA Now...
I haven't downloaded it, yet but if someone can tell us if this "Patch" Is real,
I'd be happy ^_^

People making outlandish claims like this is what feeds morons in their "OMG OMG OMG NINTEND0 IZ RELEESING A PATCH THAT LETZ US G0 2 J0HT0!!!1!!1!one!!!eleven!!1!!

If and when Nintendo releases the Johto game remakes, or makes them available, it's not going to be as simple as downloading it to your cartridge. You'd be sitting there an awfully long time waiting for that whole area/game to download. Plus, Nintendo is way more money-hungry than that.

Hypntick May 8th, 2008 10:17 PM

haven't been prompted to patch at all, but maybe i'm not doing it right.

AJ™ May 9th, 2008 3:07 AM

When the american version comes out, i refuse to implement the patch, until someone else tries it. I don't want anything in my game gone :P

In regards to how long it would take to download, a decent sized DS rom is only around 50 MB, which unless you're on dial up shouldn't take you very long at all. Heck I imagine the processing power of the DS would make fairly short work of it as well.

~CyberKitsune09~ May 9th, 2008 9:41 PM

Well I downloaded the Nintendo Channel on my WII and there is no patch *yet* Will spike6958 please tell us where he heard/saw the patch? I thought it was likely that it isn't out in the US yet, and It isn't.

spike6958 May 11th, 2008 6:52 PM

I saw it on a video about the Japanese Version of the Everybodys Nintendo Channel, it was just showing some of the features it had such as interviews, DS Demos and while going through the reviewer said "and there is the new patch for Pokemon Diamond and Pearl" and that is all that was that was said about it, no information about it just that there is a patch for it on the Japanese version of the Everybody's Nintendo Channel.

RiderLeangle May 11th, 2008 6:59 PM

Well theres nothing like this on the US Nintendo Channel (Which is a complete disapointment BTW). So what is the patch anyways? and if its some kind of expansion patch thing or the way to get event Pokemon, When does this come to the U.S. Nintendo Channel?

If you had been willing to read any of the other post's here, you would have seen that there is no known date for the US or anywhere else outside of Japan and there is a good chance that it never will be because if it was somthing of great importance to the game such as an Event Pokemon or a new Region or anything else in that context we would know about it by now as the channel has been out for a while in Japan, as it is we know nothing about it there for the patch was most likely just to solve a bug in the japanese version's of the games.

RiderLeangle May 11th, 2008 7:50 PM

Oh, for the people who got the first batch of D/P.
When WILL the events that use the item happen and will they be Wi-Fi?

Zet May 11th, 2008 8:03 PM

if you want information about the patch for outside of Japan do it the old fashion way and ask the company, instead of posting on forums asking about it. But my guess it's a Japan only patch

Ryuzaki_Lawliet May 12th, 2008 1:03 PM

Yeah, I'm thinking Japan Only..

let's see...you used all caps, colors, and multiple exclamation marks. you also mispelled "Cloning"

so, with all of this noob-ish way of posting, what makes you think that we'll believe you that it will get rid of the cloning glitch, when the rest of us don't know anything about it, yet you do?

demonmike May 12th, 2008 4:44 PM

Just to annoy those whining in this post, I hope the patch, providing it exists, updates the GTS feature in a way that it saves at random without prompting so it will be impossible for you self centered cheating players to clone more. I am sick to death with searching for Pokemon to find that GTS is full of clogged Pokemon requesting impossible levels and holding items like Masterballs.

The only problem with this generation, and its a BIG problem.

Heh, apparently YOU sir haven't tried out the service yet. I'm running on cable broadband and it still takes a good 8 minutes to download a stupid Jam Sessions demo.

Squeenix May 13th, 2008 4:45 AM

mabye for girantina's new form or to put some sprites on fore battling people with the new g/s game when it comes out if it does, is it free too, nintendos like *dude u ned to pay uz muny if u wanto du all dose tings"

Revan<Darkside> May 13th, 2008 5:34 PM

Yea i heard about the new Girantina form, its buzzing over at Bulbagarden right now

paperfunk May 14th, 2008 10:39 AM

may i ask? why are we all discussing this if we're not even sure its going to be here in the US?

wert5679 May 14th, 2008 3:44 PM

!!!!
 
What if the pacth is giving us the updated features that the supposed pokemon platnum has !?!?!? (example: wifi underground) And the new gratina form

AJ™ May 14th, 2008 4:17 PM

It won't
because they wouldn't do that, and release a new game.

Kratos_Aurion88 May 15th, 2008 9:02 AM

I didn't think they'd pass up the opporitunity to make millions more by releasing Johto as a patch rather than remaking GSC. Mark my words: THIS REMAKE WILL COME. Nintendo, unlike the other companies, tends to listen to hat the fans are saying and want, and I would venture a guess that the vast majority of Pokemon fans would LOVE the chance to explore an updated version of the best Pokemon region, Johto.:)
