Imagine the region you love exploring was playable once more in a generation!

You'd have Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald and Amethyst! Black, White, Grey and Pink, etc.

If a fourth game existed for each respective region, what do you think would be added in to differentiate it from the other three? More cities? Different colour scheme? Maybe for Hoenn, make the fourth mascot Latias, or Latios even? Etc. Do you think it would be worth spending time in one region one more time? (not including remakes)

Livewire's post in the DCC made me wonder, so yeah!

I feel I would get bored of the region; and the games themselves. I mean, I already sometimes get bored with the third games, so having a fourth game would screw me over completely.

Third game is enough. I mean, the third game improves on the first two, so why would we need an improvement of an improvement? That's like remaking a remake.

A fourth game of the same region after a third is just overkill for me. A person can love a region as much as they want, but too much of it, and they can begin to lose interest. I agree with Sydian. If they have the first two versions, the third would should be an improvement from those two.

After that, anything more should really come in a remake ten or so years later where better graphics, designs, and ideas and plannings can be implemented to make the new versions a great improvement after so many years of playing the original versions of the region you once favored over the rest.

Kind of wordy at the end, but I think I got the message across. .-.

No, just no. I'm already partially against the idea of having even a third game, because no matter the additions, it's mostly overall the same game.

Different Pokemon is the central point to the version differences, to encourage trading and stuff (originally this meant more profits from money spent on link cables but I suppose it's just status quo now, though some people buy both versions), with the third one being a sort of standalone expansion and mixing some of the available monsters of the previous two versions. A fourth version per generation would be redundant and antagonising to say the least.

Still, you've made me entertain the idea of a new 1st gen game, but not a remake in the style of how they actually have gone, say instead it'd have the same graphics and sound and as the originals, just with the kinks worked out (like Missingno), being on a newer format (if you want, but I've still got a Gameboy Pocket), and cut features reinserted (assuming there are any). Not something worth full retail price, at least not for me, but it may be a nice nostalgia trip for older fans and something for the younger ones to appreciate.

Unless the 4th game has some things that the 3rd game doesn't, then I wouldn't consider that option.

If a fourth game meant another year or twelve waiting for the next generation, then uh. Definitely not. I wouldn't mind if it was released along with the third; like an alternate two versions to the original two. Say they'd released a pair of games, one featuring Darkrai and the other featuring Cresselia instead of Platinum, or something. I think that'd be a neat idea, at least once or twice.

A fourth game would be okay, but I would still go on the third game a lot more than the fourth game.
Like HG/SS it has too much for me so I stick with platinum.

It'd be like beating a dead horse, getting bored with it for a few months, then beating it again for a little while with a fancier stick.

The region would get very boring... If there was a 4th generation, there would have to be a MAJOR difference and I would buy it. Like maybe you can travel to a bit of another region not in any of other games.

come on. Really?! Seriously they already get enough money from us a 4th game would be outrageous... The third games already is enough and the fact we have to buy a new DS all the time DS DS lite DSi DSi XL 3DS. personally I still like the DS lite, but that's off topic.

Well I don't think I would like it any less or any more. I would of course be interested in these 4th releases, but I truly have no strong feelings one way or the other.

That fourth game better be a completely playing experience from the first three, otherwise I can't see myself spending that kind of money for it...

Something like a new sub-region post game, different storyline/evil team, or if the heroine trainer looks a lot better than in the previous three games... that might give me a reason to buy the fourth game. But minor changes just aren't going to cut it.
