3rd Gen Would you like to see Ruby and Sapphire be remade in Generation 5?

Hmm...I really think that it's possible for them to do a Fifth gen remake of Ruby and Sapphire, according to the way they've remade Red and Blue in the third generation, and Gold and Silver in the fourth. But really, since Ruby and Sapphire were advanced generation games, I don't think it would really be necessary to remake them.

Might be pretty cool, though.
 
Meh. Unless the internal batteries in my R/S/E go out, I really don't care that much for a remake. It'd be cool to see the underwater routes and all that, though.
 
No didnt they already remake thoes in a game called emerald

if u mean make the 3rd gen pokemon games into a DS cart then ehhh how would u trade using pal park ???

Emerald was the third version. Red and Blue had Yellow, Gold and Silver had Crystal yet they are being remade, and D/P has Platinum. Those are third versions not remakes.

And no not a DS cart it would be on a future console.
 
No, I wouldn't. Stop making remakes of games, and release something new.

Sorry but I don't think remakes are bad. They are always good. FR/LG were good and HG/SS are looking really good upto now. They make wont stop making remakes. R/S will be remade in 5th gen and I am positive about this!
 
You have a point but 5th Gen may bring up whole new compatibility issues

That's not a good point at all. If the 5th Generation is going to have a problem connecting to Hoenn pokémon, then it's going to have to have trouble connecting to D/P/Pt. Nintendo only remakes games once they phase out old games and you are no longer able to get the pokémon from the older Gen. to the new Gen.. The reason they are remaking G/S is that you cannot connect Gen. 1 or Gen. 2 to the newer games. They solved Gen 1's problem with FR/LG, and now they're solving Gen 2's problem with the G/S remakes. You are still able to transfer pokémon from Gen. 3 to Gen. 4. The only time they made it so you couldn't transfer the old pokés to the new Gen. was from Gen. 2 to Gen 3., and that was only because they changed the inner-workings of the game.

If what I just said isn't enough, Gen. 3 was the least-liked game, statistically speaking. Gen. 2 if what you hear everyone talking about as being their favorite games, not Gen. 3. They may be a few outliers, sure, but that's why they're outliers.

Sorry for my rant, and if part of my post was circular logic, but if read correctly it should make sense.

So no, I really don't want to see R/S as remakes. Until I absolutely cannot connect D/P to the newest games (when they come out), there is IMO no reason to make 3rd Gen. remakes. Of course, if I get my way, when they make 3rd Gen. remakes they'll also have to remake D/P. That's a long way off.





And to the poster above: "Good" is relative. It's your opinion that all remakes are good, but I know a lot of people that did not like the Gen. 1 remakes.

R/S will be remade in 5th gen and I am positive about this!
Have you snuck into GameFreak recently? No? I didn't think so. Until you see an official announcement, you can speculate all you want, but (this is a fact, not an opinion like yours) you cannot be positive that they will make a remake.

Game, set, match. It's over bro. I 6-0'ed all sets.

Ok. Got that.


That's true I guess!

It was totally logical!


You are correct here too! But I just thought that as 1st and second gen recieved remakes, the other gen may also recieve remakes!


I too know a lot of people who liked FR/LG! :P I understand that its different opinions for different people. Its true that FR/LG were not liked by many but you can't call it a bad game. It was good. And thus the use of word 'good' by me.


(What if I am snucked? You really don't know that much about me,do you? What if I am a person from gamefreak trying to get to know public opinion?) Its my just my opinion pal. Maybe I can be wrong. And if there is any rule that says that I can't be positive about a game's remake before it being officially annouced then I'll stop being positive.BTW I have not heard of any rule like that.

No you didn't.


Last but not the least, please don't get too overheated! You sounded far too rude!


Gen. 3 was the least-liked game, statistically speaking.





Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire were highly anticipated and met with largely positive reception. In Japan, they sold 1.25 million units within the first four days of release and were the best-selling games of the 2002 holiday season;sales totaled around 4.4 million within six weeks of release. They also became the first games to sell 2 million copies in Japan since 2001's Final Fantasy X and the first games for a hand-held console to do so since 2000's Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 4. In North America, Nintendo moved around 2.2 million units by April 2003 (within one month of the games' North American release) in the region alone. Ruby and Sapphire were the second and third best-selling games, respectively, of 2003.[50] The games enjoyed success in Europe as well. They were the second best-selling games of the holiday season in 2002; even before release, European retailers imported cartridges from the United States to meet the high demand for the games.[52] With around 13 million units sold worldwide, the games are the best-selling titles ever for the Game Boy Advance. However, analysts noted that with "young kids...gravitating toward Yu-Gi-Oh!" at the time, Pokémon's popularity was waning.[54] This was reflected in the games' sales compared to those of previous generations: Red and Blue sold nearly 17 million units worldwide, and Gold and Silver sold a little over 14 million units.

As you can see they were not that bad according to statistics.

Well even in the 4th Gen the new DSi console removed the GBA slot so that's already a compadibility issue for those who traded in their old DS or DS Lite for the DSi luckily I still have my GBA SP and my sis let's me borrow her original DS if I need to use Pal Park.

There shouldn't be any problems with D/P/Plat connecting with any Gen 5 games due to the wireless capibilities. Gen 3 and under lack wireless (except that sorry excuse for wireless that use to come bundled with FR/LG.

Also if all else fails Nintendo may decide to do it just for the profit motive. If D/P has remakes in store that would probably be in the 6th Gen, granted Pokemon lasts that long.
 
I don't really feel that another game is entirely nessicary. I really enjoyed the gen 3 games for what they were. The graphics are survivable and colourful (to be honest those games look even more wonderful on my DS)

All I asked for these past years was gen 2 remade since i never had access to a Gameboy at the point of its release, sure I hold the original games now, but there is no method as far as i know, of transferring GBA Pokemon to GBC games. I think the Gold and Silver remakes were a nessecity, besides the fact that about 90% of the community wanted to see one.
 
I dont really care if they remake them. Im also not to sure that they would. But who knows! lol
 
No.
But if they do make a remake, then I guess they make a remake, it depends on the features that they add


:t354:TG
 
You are correct here too! But I just thought that as 1st and second gen recieved remakes, the other gen may also recieve remakes!
Did you not see what I said before? They only received remakes because it was necessary.

I too know a lot of people who liked FR/LG! :P I understand that its different opinions for different people. Its true that FR/LG were not liked by many but you can't call it a bad game. It was good. And thus the use of word 'good' by me.
Who are you to tell me I can't call it a bad game? I can call it whatever I want.

(What if I am snucked? You really don't know that much about me,do you? What if I am a person from gamefreak trying to get to know public opinion?) Its my just my opinion pal. Maybe I can be wrong. And if there is any rule that says that I can't be positive about a game's remake before it being officially annouced then I'll stop being positive.BTW I have not heard of any rule like that.
You are snucked? I don't understand what you're saying. Well... considering you just said that what you said before are just opinions, I highly doubt you work for GameFreak, otherwise you would know for a fact whether they are or are not remaking R/S, which you don't. There is not officially a rule that says you can't be say that you're positive aobut something that you arent, but you misleading people. When you are starting a rumor, it is appropriate for someone to call you out.

I just noticed this. What do you mean trying to get the public opinion? If you do work for GameFreak, then it absolutely doesn't matter whether the public thinks there is going to be a set of remakes.

No you didn't.


Last but not the least, please don't get too overheated! You sounded far too rude!
Wow... okay. Hahah, that's your opinion.

How do you know what tone I was trying to convey in my post? I have the right to sound rude if I'm trying to clarify a post you made that can confuse people. As I said before, if you say that you are "positive about this (remaking R/S)", and you aren't, then you're spreading rumors and it's perfectly fine for me to sound however rude I need to to get my point across. If you don't like my tone, then down rep. me.

Didn't you read the whole post? I said statistically speaking Gen. 3 was the least-liked Gen.. First off, that has very little to do with the sales, as someone can buy something and not like it. I do all the time. Second, if we are going by number of games sold, it clearly says that the 1st and 2nd Gens. sold more units than the 3rd Gen, and I don't have the data with me right now, but D/P/Pt has also sold more.


Well even in the 4th Gen the new DSi console removed the GBA slot so that's already a compadibility issue for those who traded in their old DS or DS Lite for the DSi luckily I still have my GBA SP and my sis let's me borrow her original DS if I need to use Pal Park.
Yes, but it's still possible to send pokémon from the 3rd Gen. to the 4th Gen.. the 1st and 2nd Gen. were only remade once they could in no way connect to the newer Gens..

There shouldn't be any problems with D/P/Plat connecting with any Gen 5 games due to the wireless capibilities. Gen 3 and under lack wireless (except that sorry excuse for wireless that use to come bundled with FR/LG.
Right, so there is no reason to remake the 3rd Gen. Plus, if they were to remake R/S, they'd obviously have to remake FR/LG, as they come from the same generation, thus they have the same problems..... which as of now are none.

Also if all else fails Nintendo may decide to do it just for the profit motive. If D/P has remakes in store that would probably be in the 6th Gen, granted Pokemon lasts that long.
But at this point in time, when you can still transfer pokémon from the 3rd Gen. to the 4th Gen., people aren't going to pay a lot of money if they can just as easily get their old pokémon onto the new games with a somewhat small amount of hassle.

I understand. Thanks for clarifying everything. But I have to admit that I really can't win from you lol XD.

Not for DSi owners there is no way to transfer 3rd Gen Pokemon to 4th Gen if you have DSi as opposed to an original DS or a DS Lite
 
o.O They've already started.....they probably have seperate teams working on it XD
[PokeCommunity.com] Would you like to see Ruby and Sapphire be remade in Generation 5?

If this is the last gen, then it would be best to remake all of the regions on one system.....

Ugh, it's not worth arguing anymore if everyone is going to be so set in their ways, but I'll just say:

But the DS lite is still on the market. You have to realize that while they may be on their way to phasing out the DS lite, I doubt it will be off of shelves by the time Gen. 5 rolls around. Until DS lites are no longer widely available, there is not a lot of motivation for GameFreak to make R/S remakes.
