4th Gen I'm Disappointed.

Now mind you I will still buy this game, it will be good and fun, I'll be the first in line for it.
umm.... a little hyporcriticle there aren't ya?
i mean, i like the nastolgia feeling to, but i don't get my panties tangled up in a knot- the thing about a remake is it's meant to bring back the good ole' feelings and add more to the game
 
The Female toddler part, kind of sexist. Male toddlers like chasing things around too... Some female toddlers like smashing things..

SERIOUSLY!! Female AND male toddlers like to chase things.
 
hahaha are you serious?? the new evolutions (only to existing pokemon on gen 2) and the new moves are a big plus for me

thats what makes the game modern and up to date but keeping the gold/silver base

do you really want a game boy game in a ds cartridge?? HG and SS have to be based on the old games but remember that it has too keep up with the times, thats why remakes are popular, they give us the old games we love with the new flavor we are enjoying now
 
Also, even if this is a Gold and Silver remake, I think they _need_ to put Crystal elements into. Since it was a improvement to the other versions I don't see the sense of taking even more outdated versions to revamp, they should do over the most updated one. UNLESS they are preparing a third remake.
.
No they don't.

The only thing Crystal had different was the Suicune story, which is not needed for a GOLD and SILVER remake.
 
seriously, with the complaining- they are not carbon copies of it, they are remakes- key letters REmakes- they are REdoing it so they can connect with the younger fan base- even nintendo knows that the older ones were better- but they also know that alot of their fan base is little kids- most of them won't like the style the originals were done in- so they are REtrying with the little kids- 10 years later, when re-remakes come out on a better console, the kids today can go "HEY, I REMAMBER THAT!" like we are now




this P-O Rant has been brought to you by the letters R and E- YAY RE :)
 
Crystal is a game for female toddlers who want to play as a girl character and run around chasing Suicune to give him a cute cuddly kissy.

For this reason alone he should be banned.

You could've just said "Toddler", not Female Toddler, you sexist *******.

And Crystal is, in my opinion, the GREATEST game in the series, and even if they decided to remake it, I'd still like the original more. Why else would I import a Japanese copy NINE YEARS after its 2000 Release?
 
I think they should have waited until 2 months before the game came out to tell us that it was coming out just so people don't complain about it now. I know we all have our own opinions, but can we please not be obnoxious about it? You can still say you don't like the new girl, but just explain why except for "I like blue hair" and "Crystal was awesome." You don't need to post in every single thread that you "hate" her. We get the point. You don't like her. You only need to say it once. The whole point of the remake is to introduce new features into the game while keeping some of the nostalgic feel to it. You don't have to capture the Sinnoh Pokemon. You can give your Pokemon an Everstone so it doesn't evolve into a Sinnoh Pokemon.
 
The G/S/C Safari Zone needs to be included. It's been said countless times, but it was intended to being the games, but there wasn't enough time/space/whatever to implement it.

Evolution woes? Well, I've heard rumors (I can't be sure they're true, but I'm 99.9% sure they are) that there's a hidden button on the DS called the "B" button, and when you press it while your Pokemon's evolving (unless you're using a stone), it won't evolve. Pretty useful, huh?

Graphical woes? I'd have to agree with you on this one. I don't like the D/P/P style as much as the R/S/FR/LG/E graphics, but still, this is a modern upgrade, so it has to be expected.

Without the Pokegear, the game would be like chocolate milk... without the chocolate.

You don't want your Pokemon to learn certain moves? Here's a thought- don't let them learn said moves. And if you happen to catch a Pokemon with a "non-nostalgic" move, then just get rid of the move, replace the move, etc.

The names? While I can agree that HeartGold isn't exactly the best name, the only time you're gonna see the name is on the box and the title screen. Is it really something to complain about?

I'd like most (if not all) of the features that were added in Crystal to be included in the games. Buena's Password was awesome, the additional Suicune sidequest was great, and all of the Eusine stuff was pretty fun. And if you don't like the Crystal features, then just ignore them. It's not like you're FORCED to catch Suicune.

Or be really quick with that B button.
 
Whoa, went away for a few hours and got 15+ posts. Talk about an active forum lol. Okay there are a few statements I would like to address.

1. Magmar and Electabuzz are only Male. Check the Platinum dex. I don't know about Pearl and Diamond, but Platinum for SURE. Guarantee. Check the dex and click the "Forms" thingy. Anyone who has Magby or Elekids must have used a Ditto in the breeding process.

2. To "OtherAlias." I didn't mean any offense to girls. I love girls. Was just trying to think of a funny way to put it, since I despise Crystal very much.

3. To "Rekhyt." You wrote:
"Wait, what? Grass colour is not revealed to us through the game titles."
Read closer. I wrote TILES. Not TITLES.

4. Also I'd like to address the people that are calling me hypocrite and saying I'm bashing the game. Do you want me to rave for 10 pages on how good the game will be? Everyone knows that if you ask any pkmn player that a G/S remake is coming out tommorow, who's going to hate the idea? And I'm no different. I'm just pointing out things that are kind of annoying me, and my "panties aren't in a knot," think of it as a review on a game that isn't out. And yes, it doesn't need to be out for me to say these things, these can be determined from the screenshots.

Nope dude, I have a female Electabuzz. Try again.

I hatched my Female Elekid ON PLATINUM. It's MOTHER was an Electabuzz CAUGHT ON PLATINUM and it's father was a Machamp with Cross Chop.

Electabuzz and Magmar have a 75% chance of being Male, which is probably why you haven't seen any Female ones yet.
 
Do yourself a favor and go play the originals then. We hardly know ANYTHING about the game yet, it's a bit too early to complain, no?

Some female toddlers like smashing things..

I sure as heck did.

As a toddler, I enjoyed romantic candelit dinners, long walks on the beach, and--




wait a mintue
 
Wait, what? Grass colour is not revealed to us through the game titles.
Screenshots have been released. I didn't even notice the new grass color; I just appreciated the 3D environment.
I'm not hating on this game, I'm just posting things that ticking me off and are going to crush the experience for me. Still gonna buy Heart (grr..) Gold!
... you just wrote a whole essay on what is wrong with HG/SS. Now you're saying that you're a pretty big fan of them? Jesus, what are you smoking.

The things I'm ranting on are things that we don't need to wait till we get the game to find out. The tiles? Unless they change it (which I HIGHLY doubt they will) they remain the same till release date, so my argument is valid. "Go play the originals"? C'mon.... and to everyone else who seems to be getting angry cause I use the world nostalgia a lot, well there's no other word I could use, that word describes precisely the feeling of playing a gold/silver remake. I don't want to play Gold and Silver, I finished them completely before my balls dropped and I grew some facial hair. Plus a remake has updated images and stuff, it'll be fun to play. I'm saying after they compromising and giving us a remake, at least do it right. I don't want to play Diamond and Pearl in the Johto region, I want to play a G/S REMAKE.

They're not going to add sinnoh pokemon in Johto. Way to make a rabid assumption.
And who are you to tell them they're not doing it right? In my opinion, you're doing the whole "fan" thing wrong. You're demanding that they do what you want(in your case, you seem to want a full pixel by pixel port (not remake, but a direct port) of G/S), in reality they will do what they want.
