I was lucky enough to be browsing through Bulbapedia the day it was announced so as I was searching by coincidence for news about G/S remakes, I saw the news post about the announcement.
I started going through my "Hype Routine" of jumping, dancing, making weird sounds and waking up my Japanese flatmate to tell him about the remakes (he hates Pokemon btw).
The initial excitement was followed by the decision that I had to learn Japanese before they release the game in Japan. (Doing pretty well till now; damn you stupid Katakana).
