Briefly commenting on this; hopefully I can add more remarks later. Admittedly, I got excited when I came across the news earlier. :cer_boogie: It looks like a lot of people (from websites I've visited) seem pessimistic about the announcement, though, likely because they're guessing that the announcement will be underwhelming - pertaining to a Pokemon spinoff instead of "Gray Version" or "Ruby/Sapphire remakes".
Since Kyuremu and the Sacred Swordsmen movie is upcoming, I'm thinking/hoping that the announcement will probably be Gray Version - it has been a while since Black/White Version's Japanese release (September 2010), and February 2010 was when we first got word of the "existence" of the 5th generation of Pokemon. Furthermore, IIRC it was a question specifically pertaining to Black/White that prompted Junichi Masuda to respond with such an announcement about Pokemon Smash.
Alternatively, since Pokemon + Nobunaga's Ambition, a rather unexpected crossover title, is getting released in March 2012 (next month) in Japan, it would make sense to have content relevant to that game... Or, yet another Pokemon spinoff could get announced.
As much I'm really hoping for RS remakes, I'm doubting that'll be the announcement (with the aforementioned Kyuremu/Keldeo movie, it would seem weird to have Kyuremu focus in the anime movies and Groudon/Kyogre/Rayquaza focus in the games simultaneously), although this scenario does feel similar to when the televised debut of Heartgold/Soulsilver on Pokemon Sunday was *hinted at* a few days in advance to the TV premiere and Nintendo's official announcement of the HGSS games' existence (ah, such a glorious day).
Or, the thing will be unpredictable and...we'll see what gets announced when the time comes. >.> In any case, here's hoping for something awesome (optimism FTW)! :D
