I'm actually a little dissapointed this is being a 3DS release.
I loved the 4 man party aspect of the first game on the Wii, the ability to just sit down with my friends and run around beating up pokemon toys was amazing, getting all of the way through EX mode and coming up with different pokemon move strategies was fantasticly fun.
However, I am only one of my friends who will be getting a 3DS during the holidays, so I wont be able to share the same experiences with them this time around, and I'm not sure how deeply its going to affect the repetitive gameplay.
So yeah, I was hoping for another wiiware or even a retail wii game personally, because I like playing games with my friends.
