That magical moment..
So, when you found out that HG/SS was going to be released, what was your reaction? Did you take a fit of excitement? Shrug it off? Or maybe even done a little dance <( ' '<)
Whatever you did, post it here! |
My insides exploded with joy... till I came to the reality it won't be realeased in the U.S. till 2010.
|
I was shocked, amazed and thrilled all in one. I then did research to make sure it was true and then as this board was made and it was confirmed I was beside myself. Now I am impatient because I live in the US and have to wait for the big 2010 to hit.
|
I took one look at the logo and sighed with a huge smile. My heart skipped a beat and there were light butterflies in my stomach. Pokemon Gold was my very first game I owned, and I immediately though, "I am SO getting Heart Gold!" I also believed I would get a Cyndaquil.
After more thought, though, I remembered the first game I PLAYED was Pokemon Silver at my friend's house, and when he let me start a file, it was Chikorita I used. I'll be getting Soul Silver and starting with Chikorita. All in all, it was a very happy yet nostalgic feel. The little doubt monsters in the back of my head shouted, "IT'S A FAN-SERVICE GAME! THEY'LL RUIN IT!" but I'm hoping for the best. |
I was like Yes!!! and I ran and jumped around my room in excitement.
|
I got a huge grin and started shouting obceneties (in a good way).
|
i danced. i think i danced in public , don't remember. oh, and i yelled. "AWESOME!!!! REMAKES OF GOLD AND SILVER!!! YEAAAAHH!!!" or something '-'
|
When I found out? I was so happy I didn't know what to do, soooooo I created a youtube account in order to let the world know everything about the remake I knew would come one day. :)
|
I....shrugged it off...I guess.
I AM excited, but I didn't dance or shout. |
My heart jumped a beat, and now I know it wont be in Britten until 2010, maybe even 2011, I am really disappointed. I can't wait for it to be released though.
|
I was like 'Man, they should remake gold and silver'
'Dood, they are' 'REALLY? ._.' Checked online and lo and behold, they were XD |
i got all giddy and called all my pokemon-playing friends all excited and giddy like a 5 ear old.
|
I watched the video several times and texted my friends about it
|
my head asploded from the joy, AND I BEGAN TYPING LIKE THIS FOR A WHILE!!!!!!
|
I just kinda smiled. G/S/C were my favorite games, so this news made me happy.
|
Honestly, I announced it on every single thread I could find, and then I got a warning from the administration for spamming :P
|
The only thing I said was "finally!!" and skipped around the house for half an hour. my family thought I went crazy :P
|
"I knew it would happen eventually!"
well that was after I was like "wtf?" because some of my friends on msn were talking about it and I hadn't heard yet. Then I also realized that it wasn't coming out for a long time and I'll probably be in college by the time it's out in English. But still! |
I was like "BEST DAY OF MY LIIIFE!!"
Seriously. People asked why. My entire psyche was fizzing up in euphoria, and I was extremely excited. I don't care if it comes out in 2012, I know it'll be worth the wait. Because Game Freak is gonna make damn sure this delivers the same kind of greatness that Gold, Silver and Crystal did. I might Pre-Order both of 'em... |
I got all warm inside, and didn't really know what to say. I think my eyes were welling up thinking of my long-lost Lugia, "The King." XD
|
I was super excited, and wanted it to be released in America the second it was announced in Japan. o_________________o
|
I shrugged it off
No question about its greatness... as G/S/C were the best games... but I wasn't... excited... I knew I would have to wait for them quite a while, and contemplated pre-ordering a Japanese game (once they're out) to satisfy myself until the English ones come out... but I figured it would be more worth it to wait Basically as a summary: I'll very patiently wait for them to come out... with no excitement until they're available for pre-order in the US =P |
I spent 10 minutes slapping myself, thinking I was still asleep, and I was just dreaming.
It was only until after the pain became unbearable I realised that I wasn't dreaming. |
I was happy, I guess. Not fantasically excited, just put-it-on-my-list-of-stuff-to-buy happy.
|
When I heard, I immediately started checking the internet for where I could pre-order it, I don't care if it's in jap. I have to have them both when they are released.
|
I was...not surprised at all, but in a way, a whole ton more excited than some of you guys sound. I think that I should be embarrassed for screaming it in school, but i'm really not. Oh well, hopefully I can make new friends next year....
JK I still have friends. -PokeJosh |
When I found out that HG/SS was for real I shouted "WOO-HOO! ABOUT F**KING TIME!!!!!!"
I was embarrassed later because everybody in the house heard me. |
(in order) I shouted, danced, shouted and danced at the same time, shouted louder, put a video on youtube about the game, and then shouted again. And the weird thing was that i knew it was gonna be that day.
|
Me: "It's about god-d*mn time."
-Grins, and checks out the newest videos- |

lmao i did the same it does suck though that its comin out in 2010 but good thing is gives us time to put money away for it |
Actually, a few weeks before it was announced, I saw this article on Bulbapedia speculating about possible Gold and Silver remakes. Although the "arrived from Johto" thing seemed sort of suspicious to me, to most of it I was like, "Pffft, that's never going to happen. If they wanted to make it, they would have made it for the GBA." But then I saw the Bulbanews article saying that Pokémon Sunday would announce two new main series games, and they had shown one gold Poké Ball and one silver Poké Ball. And, while I always do my best to never use The Lord's name in vain, I couldn't control myself, and I said "OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!" Actually, even thinking about that one moment still makes me excited now. To think I could ever so cruelly and aberrantly deny the possibility! So yeah, I freaked out, I danced, I screamed, I briefly departed from my normal religious standards. All in one.
|
I felt a sense of great joy that was fighting to be released from me. I then needed a change of pants.
I proceded to post on Pokecommunity (maybe some of you have heard of it) for the first time in like forever. |
I thought "I knew it was coming long before this, but I'm happy they announced it anyways." Followed by "Heart Gold? -.- Oh well, it's better then Shiny..." and then some "Cursegon2 is back in action, and now with tracing capabilities!"
I didn't freak out like everyone else, and now I feel like I've missed out. :disappoin |
My feeling was one of great relief. I can't say I didn't see an announcement coming this year but was kind of tired of all of the anticipation and waiting for remakes. That and the fact I wanted to see the reaction of those who had stood firm with the stance that we'd never have GSDS lol.
It's funny though because the night before, I had a dream that I was playing a game set in Johto (which weirdly enough did not resemble the region, but I guess my mind wanted to tell me it was Johto xD). As a result, me waking up and firing up the laptop to discover this news was just phenomenal. The names were unbelievably majestic too, and felt magnificent compared to the predicted names of Dusk/Dawn/Moon/Sun etc. After the initial joy though, I was then disappointed with the initial lack of substantial information about the games, and realisation dawned that the games will be released here in England over a year later. :( I first played silver as a 10 year old when I had it for my birthday in May 2001, so just knowing that I can relive those good times by embarking on a journey with Totodile once again is great! :D |
I had first heard of the news regarding a 'worldwide announcement'. G/S remake theories were thrown around wildly. I was all like 'Naaah.' But there were hints, and by the time it happened, I was sure it was GSDS, and I squealed like a giddy schoolgirl even though G/S had absolutely nothing to do with my childhood. xD
|
On the news that G/S are getting their remake I just jumped with joy. I was very very hppy. Eagerly waiting for them now!
|
I was on Bulbpedia looking up Arecus, and was looking at his sprites and saw HG/SS under it. I was screaming "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Remakes of Gold and Silver! Oh my gosh!"
|
I think when I first joined here, there was talk of that worldwide announcement. As mentioned, many speculated these as the long awaited GSC remakes. I was almost ready to get disappointed and find out that we were hyped for no reason, but hey, it turned out to be the real deal.
My reaction? It was kind of slow. I just couldn't believe that after months of pining for the remakes, we're finally getting it. |
yea. like forever g/s/c remakes have been popular.
just look at shineygold by zel.
now its an official remake were looking forward to... no more nagging nintendo! |
Ha Ha, to tell you the truth I actually did do a little dance around the house. A burst of excitement had kicked in after hearing the news of the remakes and seeing as I wanted to hear this after so many years I didn't really know what else to do. However, the idea of it eventually synced in not too long after and I basically started doing a bit of research on it. At first I was a bit inquisitive and then I gradually started to learn more and more about it. I really didn't believe it was happening and in a way I still cannot believe it. Although, I'm sure I'll be a lot more excited for when I receive the game. This is when I think the true magical moment might kick in for me and I'm sure others as well.
|
My eyes widened and a grin broke across my face. Would have expressed it more powerfully, but the thinness of the walls in my neighbourhood would have meant families two houses away in every direction would have heard me.
Also, I was glad because it was the first time I found out about a new game before my cousin XD. |
Umm...I was really excited, and I told my friends. When I found out that your pokemon could follow you, I think I started screaming, and my mom asked me if I was ok (lol)! I was hyperventilating, too. And I exploded. And money rained down from the sky.
|
Lol I got so excited when I first saw the Coro coro scans. (The first character I saw was the new girl.) I got even more excited when I found out any Pokemon can follow you. I was flipping out! I thought it was the best thing ever! When I first knew about the names, I thought they were lovely. I love the logos. The Heart looked pretty and the Soul looked cool. (I can still remember getting excited over catching a Magikarp in the original Gold version.) No other game can get me this excited. XD Thanks Nintendo/Game Freak! ^_^
|
Well, seeing as gen II is my least favourite, I wasn't 'overcome with happiness' so to speak, but I am quite excited to get it. They always introduce different things into the new games and i love all the games regardless :)
|
I was just kinda happy and excited when I saw the pictures. Odd, I just played crystal few weeks before it was announced...
|
Quote:
Oh well. Continuing from were I left off a while ago. I then found out the names and thought they were horrible, but then after a week or so I thought those names were just perfect for the remakes. |
I was like "Squee!" And if you know me, you know I don't squee very much, if at all. When Sparkling Dragon squees, something REALLY awesome has just happened XD. I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo psyched about these remakes!
|
Quote:
The joy and dancing was back. Also, the reply of music came in for a moment and slight day dreaming of the future Johto team. I thought a lot the moment I heard the news too, so it was a nice feeling. |
I let out a little squeal of joy at being able to see Silver again. And then I looked for pictures.
|
I was too excited to do anything. Though I remember my friends asking me what happened because I had a huge grin on my face the rest of that day. My only thought was to travel johto once again with my beloved Quilava, Pichu, Umbreon and Togetic, but this time in full color and amazing graphics.
|
I actually got pretty excited hearing about a Gold/Silver [email protected]@@@@
|
i was really excited. Gold and silver to me were great pokemon games, and HS/GG will be incredible.
10 years since gold and silver and we finally get the news of these games being remade! I can't wait for them to come out |
When I saw the confirmation of thise remakes, my eyes widened in awe and I thrust my fist in the air and shouted: "F*** YEAH!!!!" Then my mother scolded me for shouting obscenities.
|
I just sat there for a few minutes stared went I knew it and typed furiously.
|
I blew up. With excitement. No, actually, I checked everywhere and it was confirmed, then I didn't believe them, then I..... blew up.
|
I've danced and round around the house screaming like I lost my mind, no one could calm me down, thats how hyped I was
:t354:TG |
As soon as I heard about the news, I dropped my WiiMote (was playing Super Mario Galaxy), quietly went outside, started randomly screaming, and went to do a 3-hour run to about 20 miles from home while STILL randomly screaming. Once I got tired, I took a bus ride home, and mom got a bit upset at me, but it was worth it. |
I kinda just let it sink in for a few minuites, then did my happy dance, the told everyone I knew about it on msn :D:D
|
First I was like this...
O.O Then I shrugged off the surprise and researched it a bit more, and now I'm not as surprised, or as excited over it as I was over SSBB. |
I didn't find out soon enough.
Then I got excited seeing videos and pictures about it. Excitement is bubbling up in my stomach. I'm getting both ^_^ |
I was so excited, and I sort of danced.
For sure I told my mom and threw all of my plushies around with excitement. |
I ran around my grans house cheering :D
|
I kinda just shrugged it off, there was a skip in my heartbeat and I kinda just stared at my screen for a while, but other then that, meh. I am excited though, I LOVE Pokemon Silver, fave Pokemon game. =]
~Ryu |
I was still my normal self upon the announcment. I might have rolled my eyes and said "So let the speculation begin." and checked out a few sites to prove it was real.
I was happy. But I find that this game won't satisfy my nostalgia. I mean, it is a different generation, so it won't be anything worth getting excited for. If I want nostalgia, I will simply pull out my Crystal and play it. (; |
I compare it to when Sonic was revealed to be in Super Smash Bros Brawl. My heart just started racing, and I felt like I had to talk to everyone I knew about it.
|
Smiled, then ran out of the house screaming "GSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGS!!!!"
NU RLY. then I announced it to everyone on my msn list. ___ Man. I've never been this happy about a game since Sonic Gems Collection! |
at first i was like :yeah sure its proberly fake.
then when i found out it was real.I was like unconcsious. My spirit had gone up to the sky screaming FINALLY! |
My brother and I kinda figured it out before it was official. No real shock or difference from our approximation.
|
I wasn't really surprised. I mean...I had been talking about it for the previous month before, so I wasn't like freaking out and running around my house.
That doesn't mean I'm not excited for it or anything...I can't wait to get my hands on HeartGold. |
When I saw the release date, my first reaction was, the realease date is bound to be pushed back. |
I was first like "OMG, really?" Then after getting confirmation from some reliable sources, I went and Facebooked and IMed all I knew.
I remember my status update was "is pleasantly surprised that Pokemon Gold and Silver are being remade" |
When I found out I sneezed orange juice, but that was my brother's fault. Anyway, I cheered so loud my dog started howling!
|
At first I just sat there in disbelief, but after about five minutes I shouted, "It's about effing time!"
|
Ib was among one of the first people to find out
Bulbapedia 'Major pokemon game to be anounced this month" Bulbapedia "Gen 2 remakes confirmed!!!" Me and my bro started screaming and jumping for joy!!! "this is what fans have been waiting 5 years for" -Pokedude45 |
I punched the air and said to myself with satisfaction: "well, finally." I'd seen it coming for a while, but the confirmation was the crowning moment.
|
I was like "FINALLY!" and made a topic on a Pokemon forum about it.
|
I said "Oh. Cool" and then moved on with my life. Although, I think about it often, and I am slightly excited. But I have no time to be excited over this, as all my excitement must go to the London Cosplay Expo.
|
At first, I was very happy, then I realized it'd be about six months until they were even released in Japan.
|
I jumped for joy, then was let down so harshly after seeing images and videos, they have ruined it for the MOST part, but some aspects are nice.
|
I was expecting a remake, but not at the time.
I just randomly went to check Bulbapedia for some reason and I saw information about new games. I was so excited when I found out they were the Johto remakes. |
When I found out I started to hit my keyboard with much exitement and started to clap thinking about a return to Jhoto. After that I got grounded for hitting the keyboard, but it was worth it.
|
BeachBoy told me when we were chatting, and I screamed IRL. :D. Totadile FTW!
|
I wasn't paticularily shocked to be frank but i sure was happy. I had no dout in my mind thaat Gamefreak would release a remake due to the mass sales and of course the demand for the games to be released. It was a good feeling to know they would be released even though many of us had already had an idea it would be announced on the 10th anniversary. To be honest i get more and more excited every week when i see more coro coro scans. But the only thing letting the excitement down is the wait we'll have to endure for the english version! Although i will be playing the japanese version first it'll inevitably ruin a lot of suprizes from when i play the english version but i'm stuck in the choice of either play the japanese version or have the suprizes ruined by other people on the net annoucing every minor detail that is different... And it would be pretty hard to avoid seeing that sort of stuff.
|
I was. . Apathetic, to say the least. I really didn't care at all. But then I found out that Pokémon follow you. That's when my head asploded with joy. (>^///^<) |
i was like...holy ____. *logs on to pokecommunity*
|
I was filled with joy and excitement then went to "I KNEW IT!" mood. |
'OMGOMGOMG, GOLdS AND SILVER REMAKES! YAY, WOW I CANT WAT. THIS IS AWSOME, GOTTA TO GO TELL MY MY FELLOW POKEMON LUVERS, OMG OMG OMG, IM SO EXCITED.'
Was my exact reaction followed by some extreme googleing of HG/SL, and some hyper ventalation, and a couple of phone calls. i was so excited and am still excited i can't wait for them. |
I was so thrilled. Although I already knew it would happen with the sneak preview in Pokemon Sunday with the Gold and Silver party balls.
|
When I found out that there was going to be a remake on HeartGold and SoulSilver I actually started laughing so much for joy because they are Gold and Silver. I know they are going to be great because aside from Kanto, Johto was the best. I am hoping that they might put in a Celebi event so that we can finally get the ever elusive Pokemon.
|
Only thing I did was find out more.
It wasn't until they said any Pokémon can follow you that I shouted in excitement. |
I gasped and almost died ...
|
When I read that the long awaited remakes of Gold and Silver were going to be produced I simple smiled and thought "about time".
|
I started cheering when I first saw the Coro Coro scans of the boy and girl trainer. That's when I first got excited.
Other times I got excited when I found out/saw: 493 Pokemon, Team Rocket, Silver! First Commercial, Soul Silver intro |
lolz i ran around my house for a hour telling every person who walked near me, "there coming out with a new pokemon game!" lolz
|
I screamed, my heart started pounding, I emailed two of my friends who play Pokemon and I went to bed but lay awake pondering for about 3 hours. lol
|
I felt like a psychic, though it was bound to happen. My body was loaded with energy.
|
Couldn't stop smiling for the rest of that day :)
|
I got incredibly excited and then bored my husband as I dug through all my old stuff trying to find my copy of Crystal to play through!
|
I said "happy graduation to me!" and left it at that.
|
I was eating soup while on my computer and when i found out i jumped up and spilled it on myself!!! Then i ran to all of my friends house to tell them the news!....I liked that soup T_T
