*is unflattered by that idea*

Firstly -I don't plan to get a DSi, and not even if it WAS a GS only game. A few hundred for a game and a ds that can take pictures and the odd extra feature when I ahve a Lite alread is kinda... bleh. -_-

And there are going to be many like that. MANY. Why would Nintendo limit their sales in such a way for a game that would sell? They'd try to get everything out of it, right?
Besides, if it were to have DSi features - they could also implement it that they will only work on a DSi perhaps... :/ But Nintendo creating a clear and obvious negative effect on sales of a game = questionable logic.

Plus, I ask - what could a GSC remake have that would implement the camera? That I cannot understand... yes - the was a printing thingamabob (which didn't last very long), but... a camera? To take pictures of yourself or other things - well, how would that be of any use - put pictures of non-Pokemon things in a Pokemon game? I believe there's a photo channel for that sort of thing... just that I don't see any reason why it would be DSi only, as there's nothing of any use really, and it would certainly hurt sales.

Lack of GBA -slot allowing for more to happen? Such as? Only thing I can see is a lack of being able to migrate Pokemon. :/ And again - what extra stuff could one use and implement with a Pokemon game? I just don't see it..

Also - I wouldn't consider the DSi to be the new handheld, like the GBA was to the GBC. More like the DS Lite was to the DS - a minor upgrade, with better features and a bigger price-tag. Or liek the GBA-SP to the GBA, which didn't come with a new Pokemon generation - each played the same games as each other. DSi in terms of Pokemon will not be able to migrate Pokemon, and that's about it, I'm predicting. Could be wrong, but don't see why it would, tbh.

I agree w/ the person above. I would not want to buy a dsi for the gs remake. I mean, I probably would, but I relly don twant to because my mom probably won't let me. v.v also about the red gyrados I think they should keep it. it is the only guaranteed chance of getting a shiny, and for people who have never gotten one(like me)it would make them happy and they could trade it to other games and they would have shinies! P.S. my signature pic isn't showing and I don't know why. do any of you know? I uploaded it and everything...

Oh right there was shiny gyarados catchable in GSC... when I think about it, for everyone to be able to catch a shiny gyarados at the lake of rage, I don't really like that to come true. In GSC that seems ok, as it introduced them and there the gyarados just had preprogrammed higher than usual IVs, and the games were not so popular....what I wanna say is, that shiny pokemon in pre 3rd gen were of different value than they're after. A shiny pokemon you can go up to it and fight it? That just doesn't sound right in a 4th gen compatible game to me.
I really hope they make a better game in Johto rather than full remakes like Fr/Lg. That way they could enchance alot of things, and for the red gyarados thing... expand the story about it, but in a way it isn't catchable or something =/
I don't want everyone to have SR shiny gyaras in their teams like it's nothing special.

though I agree with you, this doesn't have to be the case in the remake. in G/S/C, a shiny pokemon have higher IVs, yes. but if I recall it corectly, since R/S/E low IV pokemon could be shiny too. so why not just place the red gyarados with a preset IV? like bad IVs, like most pokemon events.
and even then, why whining about a shiny gyarados when it's nothing special? if people trully wanted a red gyarados in their team, then either they looked hard for a shiny magikarp/gyarados, or they just used an AR.
and like Akira says, this will be a great chance for people who don't have a (legit) shiny, then they can catch one now by themself. I have by myself only traded shinies, I never catched a shiny. but encountered a few in R/S/E, but at time I didn't knew what shiny pokemon were... I still feel stupid for that. oh well.
 
I don't think they should preset low IVs. I think theybshould make the IVs random like normal pokemon or legendaries. however I think they should make it harder to get like the first time you fight it you can't catch it but after the elite 4 are defeated you could come back and catch it like a legendary. GSC needed more legengs anyway...^.^

I agree, but f the red gyarados will get random IVs, then everyone that wants a gyarados in their team will soft reset in front of it till the red gyarados will have the right nature and IVs, just like everyone does with legendaries. and that would mean that every team that has a gyarados will be the red gyarados. and that would be getting quite annoying. so that's why it should be preset with low or bad IVs.
 
Why would that be annoying though? It would be like a legendary, and you don"t see legendaries on teams everywhere you go, do you? Why would it be any different with the gyrados? Maybe because it"s part water/ flying? i dont know... ummmm or it would be like a normal gyrados, just a different color! people could set IVs on a normal one too, and it would just really depend on if they like red or blue... XP

P.S. is my post confusing? sorry

umm it's not a legendary, it's the same gyarados as any other, the only difference is that it's shiny. and people who wants a gyarados in their team WILL put the red gyarados in their team, because it's shiny. yes, only because of that. the change to get a shiny is so small, the red gyarados would be the easiest legit shiny pokemon to get.

thats not what I meant. What I meant was that it would be LIKE a legendary, because you walk up to it and all that other stuff. and plus legendarys are even rarer than shinies beause you can only get them once and its possible to get more than 1 shiny.
 
I think a remake of g/s/c would AMAZING.

I was excited when they redid R/B with FireRed and LeafGreen.
It was like the old times.. but with better graphics..
and more up-to date.

G/S/C are my favorite generation of games. I love the concept of the day/night system along with the days of the week, it's much more realistic that way.
And I love that after you beat Johto, that you could venture into the Kanto region. And I like that they made Kanto different. Some things did make me mad about that, though, such as Viridian Forest disappearing, and not being able to explore Seafoam Islands due to the new Cinnabar Gym being there.
But I still thought it was cool that they showed how three years had gone by.

And though Kanto in that game may be a little boring or bland.. You have to remember that those games were made to focus on Johto.

Plus, it's kind of sad because as of Generation three, I'm finding it really hard to find Johto pokemon..
And I really like the Johto Pokemon.


Anyway.. enough ramblage.

I do agree, though.
A game with every region.. would be amazing. :]
 
2 regions + some of the best Pokemon ever made = Yes!

I've been wanting a GSC remake for years now, ever since FireRed/LeafGreen came out. But if they do end up making one, it will have to be on the DS (obviously?). =o
 
IN my opinion Nintendo would be stupid not to remake G/S/C. Those where honestly 3 of the best classic games next to R/B/Y. If Nintindo doesn't they are just stupid. Microsoft and Sony listens to there gamers for their next games. Look at the MGS Games and Halo Trilogy, ALL THE FANS WANTED MORE AND SONY/MICROSOFT LISTENED. Nintindo doesn't listen to their fans/gamers that much and thats why they are losing in the NxtGenCon War and in the entire game market. They make non-FUN games like the entire Wii Fitness/Sports/Music. They're not that fun.

NINTINDO! READ THIS AND LEARN! MORE PKMN GAMES/RE-MAKES WOULD BE BETTER FOR US ALL!
 
Seeing as platinum was a game beckoned by the shouts of the fans it could happen. I mean look. Platinum was a hell of a lot faster in the battle and surf area and the story line was a bit more darker. And lets not forget a 2 buttoned poketech. They made that game for the fans and im sure of it! So im guessing if they can at least do that for us then they can surely bring to life a gs remake.
 
Hi everybody! I think that a remake for pokemon gold and silver for nintendo DS would be really popular. I still remember when I used to play pokemon gold and silver. I will be really happy if there is a remke for these games. I would like to travel again in the johto region. Also, I saw several pictures in japanese about a remake but those pictures were fake. I don't think that they will make remake for gold and silver because I think that nintendo is busy doing the fifth generation of pokemon. That is only my point of view.

they create a new generation with a new generation handheld system.... the new DS version just came out =/

2009 is the perfect date for GS remakes if ya ask me.
 
Actually yeah it is but that would mean it would have to sort of tie into the 12th movie. Wait wait wait. Movie 7 with munchlax came out before fr/lg. And its connected to kanto. So that would mean movie 12 to promote the g/s remake would have to reveal a 5th gen jhoto pre-evo. Problem solved and yes september 2009 will be perfect.
 
Forget it, the 12th movie is the last of the Sinnoh legends movies. Also, I found a picture of Pokemon GS remakes that are obviously, fake. I put it in my album, but it's really odd, though.
 
You guys?


  • They only made a remake of Red and Blue because those were the first games in the series and were made to celebrate Pokémon's birthday or something along those lines.
  • They had a perfect opportunity to do the remake with the GBA - so why would they make a GS remake on the DS, with two screens to mess with?
  • There's already a bleeping GS remake. (Pokémon Crystal, ever heard of it?)
I want a Crystal remake as well, but there was a chance missed with the Game Boy Advance and I highly doubt it's going to happen any time soon.

Ah, but couldn't they also make a remake for GSC for another aniversery (say, the 15th birthday)? Who's to say they couldn't do that?

Besides - that was not the sole reason they remade RBY. It was partly because of it, yes...more they needed a way to make Kanto/some Johto Pokemon available as well besides Colo and XD. But mostly because of $$$. Had they thought a remake wouldn't have sold well, they wouldn't have done it. Considering many GSC games have now died as well (due to internal betteries dying), meaning it can no longer can be played...

Now, looking at the demand for a GSC remake... well, there is no doubt at all that it would seel. Combined with hints (in-game coding, references), and a lack of a few Pokemon in 4th gen games (GSC legendaries, anyone? Regis available, Kanto birds available... but no 2nd gen legends...), and I wouldn't be so quick to discount it.

See above reason involving $$$ that would be made from it.
And... that is a rather null and void reason in my books, tbh. Because they DIDN'T do it for the GBA, they won't do it for the DS? Um what? Heck, witht he DS it can work well easily. Make the Pokegear the Pokeetch, for instance. Potential FTW!

And also, IMO, making it in the third gen wouldn't have been a good idea. It was in only the previous generation, and thus many would have already played it then not so long ago (and many would still be working). Doing it only a few mere years after it would have lowered the potential sales. Now is a better time for them, as they have many of them dead and thus unplayable, and many gamers new to the Pokemon scene *points to D/P/Pt sales*. More people would want it, and more demand = more $$$. And again combining with clues such as in-game coding within the 4th gen games... it shows that they have at least considered it.

Have you heard of Yellow? Third game following Red and Blue? Sure stopped the remakes of it then in FR/LG, didn't it? -_-

Besides - Crystal is also a 2nd gen game like Gold and Silver. And Crystal isn't a remake, just a repeat version with more features, ala Yellow, Emerald and Platinum. FR/LG however is a remake - a redone version of an old game for a different gaming system (GBA game based on the GB games).

Nintendo has nothing to lose for making a G/S remake, and everything to gain -.-

Honestly, you could expect a bunch of old players to get back into Pokemon if they remade the games.
