4th Gen Ultimate games? Famitsu says…

Yes that Nintendogs was bull but whatever we can't do anything. But as very strict scorers I have to agree with this score. Like how Dragon Quest IX deserves that perfect 40 this deserves the highest score for a Pokemon game.
 
I give it a ten without even playing it. The pre release info tells much. and I believe Famitsu gave Nitendogs a 40 because it was quite impressive when DS was new.
 
Hmmmm 37, thats a pretty good score, but I would of thought it would have been sightly higher, at least 38, but they may not be as big pokemon supporters as us. But from other scores he has given, this sounds pretty good.
 
Not really definitive, but guess what Famitsu gave Pocket Monsters Heart Gold & Soul Silver?

37/40

Of a review pane of four people (as all Famitsu reviews are handled), it scored a 9, 10, 9, and 9. That's one point higher than Diamond and Pearl, actually (which had a perfect 9 across the board). A list of the review scores (thanks to the internet):
Platinum: 36/40 (9, 9, 9, 9)
Diamond and Pearl: 36/40 (9, 9, 9, 9)
FireRed and LeafGreen: 32/40 (8, 8, 8, 8)

On a side note, Famitsu is known as one of the toughest, and most trusted game reviewers in Japan. (Though perhaps to give Nintendogs a perfect 10 across the board was a little much.)

What is the categories? like 9 for gameplay, 10 for sounds. idk.. :)

He clearly states how each score is a score given by 4 reviewers. Whoever that 10 is I applaud him cause its so true. I mean its a beautiful game sound wise and graphic wise not to mention its gs in ds.
 
Yay i kenew this game would get great reviews well anyway celebrate the 11th anniversary of red and blue versions today!!!!

How did you read the text on the Famitsu webpage? Its all in Japanese symbols. Did you use Google Translate?
 
A remake of R/B(FR/LG) with the DS graphics would be awesome
Probably won't happen, but if they'll keep remaking some remake would come eventually in the next console(s). Plus, with HGSS's Kanto and probably a few more DS hack tools which might come in some years will give us a VERY easy opportunity to make it.
 
Hopefully I'll be agreeing with those scores when I get to finally play these games. I do have high hopes for it. :P
 
HeartGold and SoulSilver's rating is considerably high, which is a good foreshadowing of how well the game might be to players once released considering Famitsu is a pretty well known and trustworthy source when it comes to rating of the games. As for the rating of Nintendogs, its score really bases on different aspects considering age, effects, and all.

Good to know all together though, because for some it'll tell them whether the game will be worth purchasing or not. Nevertheless of its rating for me however, I would have still tested it myself seeing how well its been showing itself to be.
 
Woah, thats a real good score...makes me not wanna wait even more...T_T
I'm so jealous of them getting it this early though! xD

But...they gave Nintendogs a perfect 10? Uhm...a bit suprising I should say. The game was good but...xD
 
That image of pallet town looks nice.
I really wonder what made this game 1 point better then Diamond and Pearl and Platinum though.
