Ya'll sure its a pokemon game and not a new Mario or Donkey Kong game?
Highly doubt its a new pokemon game, didnt they
just make a Pokémon spinoff game? Waaay too soon for a "pokemon grey" IMO. If they did release a pokemon grey, wow they'd really be rushing it big time. Maybe its a spinoff game again? Or possibly a R/S remake? I would love a remake of those!!! ^-^
Think Japan. Rumble Blast and Pokepark 2 have been out for a good while. Think the NA releases of Mystery Dungeon 1, Ranger 1, and DP:
- Mystery Dungeon 1 - September 2006
- Ranger 1 - October 2006
- DP - April 2007
That's not a huge gap.
>>>>>‘Black’ and ‘White’ Sequel To Be Announced on ‘Pokemon Smash’ This Week? Monday, February 20th, 2012 @ 1 AM PST - I really thing when they said " sequel to pokemon Black and White" they were talking about a sequel to the movie, Black and White-the one last year with Victini, not a sequel to the Black and White games.
Eh. I'm not sure if Masuda would make a tease if it weren't a Game Freak game.
hmmm just a hypothisis here, if they did make an alternate form of Kyurem, wouldnt it be too similar to giratina like copying it?
Actually, the Kyurem forme might directly be an Origin Forme. Some speculate it may be Kyurem's complete forme, with Reshiram and Zekrom traits. I doubt it would be too similar.
I think if they did that, they wouldnt make it to put it in a "pokemon grey" but as a downloadable event thing for the movie.
Not possible, as evidenced by the ROM story a few weeks back. The data simply isn't there, and if 3DS games are debatable on their patchability, DS games are nigh impossible.

I believe that Pokemon Gray will also be available for the DS.
Yeah, probably. 3DS compatibility would be a beast to do.
Not many people have a 3DS and if it does come out specifically for the 3DS it won't get as many sales.
I guess you mean relative to the DS userbase. It would be a risk, but just look at Monster Hunter 3G.

According to the SwapNote sent out by NoA, the same announcement should be released tomorrow at 6 AM PT/9AM AT.
Which means there probably isn't any news for Pokemon D:
I was about to agree, as a Pokemon announcement would be a for a Japanese game. But it's possible it could happen. At NA's last Nintendo Direct, we got news of Hulu Plus. That didn't make the Japanese one.

Minor bone to pick with you. The 3DS, relative to life cycle, has outsold the DS. 16.1 million in 9 months is nothing to sneeze at. It hasn't sold less than 200,000 units a week worldwide since mid-October. It's outsold every other gaming console every week since early December.
If that's less than enthusiastic, then the rest of the gaming industry must be in complete freefall.
Indeed. Here's a chart comparing sales in its first 52 weeks of sales compared to DS, Wii, and GBA:

@Metalizard and Ice Arceus: I do agree with you about hoping the third game to Black and White isn't 3DS exclusive but their is precendence for it. When Gold and Silver came out it was for the Gameboy and could be played on Gameboy Color as well. But when they released Crystal it was only for the Gameboy Color, which made me have to get a Gameboy Color to play Crystal.
The Game Boy Color is a much smaller step in power from the Game Boy, than the 3DS to the DS. They were the same basic system, so compatibility wasn't an issue.
I was surprised they didn't release a new system with the release of Black and White to be honest.
The timing wasn't right. Pokemon games always usually come out a few years after a system has been out. RB, GS, RS, DP. They've all done it. BW happened to fall late in the DS lifespan. Do note that they came out 5 months before the 3DS. They would have been delayed by at least a year to be put on 3DS.
