You know what bothers me? Out of all Pokemon Games, Red, Blue, Silver and Gold got remade together into Soul Silver and Heart Gold, but Emerald, Sapphire and Ruby never got remade, who thinks they should remake it? Post your votes here and ideas for how you want the remake to be!
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

They're going to remake the R/S/E games, and like Salamencetrainer said; it's very popular.

Like the G/S/C remakes were, the R/S/E possible remake games have a serious following behind them.

how do you know there gonna remake it? Currently X and Y are being worked on.
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

if you think about it makes scenes
FR and LG got remade in gameboy advance
HG and SS got remade in the DS
so it would make sense if every remake had a console :p
and wouldn't it be epic if the remakes were in 3D? :D

It only makes sense that they'll remake them. They've remade the 1st Gen of games, and the 2nd, so it's time for the Hoenn game to get their remakes.

I want it to get remade so badly... I can't believe I've never played a Hoenn region game before :(

You've never played Hoenn? Get out, just get out.

You can find those games and game guides cheap on Ebay :)
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

Not this topic again. Couldn't you at least wait until X/Y have been out for about a year? Won't get any info on a possible remake before that anyway.
Hoennbabies sure cry the loudest.

But its strange, doesnt it make sense? If they had a vision of remaking the 1 through 3, would they have done it already before making black 1 and 2? I get the feeling they will never remake it... :C

YOU NEVER PLAYED IT??!! Dude... i aint gonna say what i have in mind.
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

I've had this discussion for a few years now. And it finally shut up after XY proved my point. And now we're months away for even THOSE games.

Anyhow. I still sincerely hope that the concept of "remakes" was finished with HGSS. Gamefreak can do better than that. I mean they don't have to resort to copy-pasting every single outdated game to the current standard, they can do actually new stuff and incorporate nostalgia to milk more cash in that.
They have proven with BW2 that they are more creative than this.

I don't even see how continuing to remake the newer games makes any sense since the remakes of the original games are just as outdated (FRLG are as old as RSE)
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

I just hope they remake it, even if i ge the feeling they wont, and also, i know Red and Blue got remade into FireRed and LeafGreen, then Soul Silver and Heart Gold, but they should remake it again into into its seperate Trio DS title, Leaf Green Fire Red and Water Blue, along with Emerald Sapphire and Ruby, these remake would make a good Generation.

True, Red and Blue got remade like 3 times and HG SS like 2 times but ESR none.
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

First, remaking RS just because the other two pairs were remade is stupid. Second, if you think RS should be remade because they're outdated, then FRLG would have to be remade too since they're also GBA games (lol remakes of remakes)...

Lol, if you read carefully what i said above, thats exactly what i said.


Also, while im at it, i think it would be goos to add evolutions to pokemon that can have badass evolutions, like Tropius, Spinda, Kecleon, etc.
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

I think they should go for BW2 style sequels instead, that way we can get the best of both worlds: we can revisit the same areas, find the same Pokemon, and see familiar characters again, but in new ways that keep things fresh.

The main reason these games were remade were to make the Pokemon in the games more accessible. e.g. iirc Lugia and Ho-Oh were events in FRLG. Same with the starters; there was no way to get the Gen.1 starters in Gen.3 (unless there was some event I don't know about), or the Legendary Birds.
Also, there was only one way to get the Johto starters in Emerald; you had to catch every Pokemon in the Regional Dex and even then you only got one of the starters.

So for evidence for a remake we have:
-The most recent games Groudon, Ho-Oh & Rayquaza have been in were HG/SS (excluding events) and not being available in B/W/2 at all
-The starters, again, having been most recent in HG/SS (excluding events)
-Only region not having been playable on the (3)DS
-the X and Y logos are blue and red so r/s/e remakes confirmed

However, the fact that the Latis and Regis were in B2/W2 might mean that Groudon & Kyogre could be accessible in X & Y (unlikely, since most version mascots can usually be caught in their respective game; only exception I can think of is the Weather Trio being in HG/SS).

Heres a fail:
Last time we had access to Hoenn/Johto/Kanto starters in HGSS (also note how all 3 are equally outdated..)
Last time we had access to Sinnoh starters was in DPt
Yeah...so DP remakes? Of course not.

The legendaries are all over the place and can be added to any postgames when they havent been available long enough as proven by the past 12 games or so. Actually ANY pokemon can.


And no. FRLG really did bring back the old pokemon, but it was not the reason for making them.
You know they did not bring back ALL the old pokemon in FRLG (just ~70%). But we still had access to them. How? OTHER GAMES, non main games. Colosseum had the other 30%.
And a bit later Gale of Darkness even added everything else to the point you would not even have needed FRLG in gen 3 if it wasnt for the Kanto starters (which could have been simply added if they werent already the main selling point of FRLG). Heck they even gave access to otherwise event-pokemon like Lugia and Ho-oh.


The argument is even weaker in HGSS, since ALL pokemon it might have made available were already obtainable in some way (all the extra features like pokeradar, swarms amost did the job on their own) and in the extreme case could have just been transfered from gen 3.


Hence: Remakes were made so we can re-experience the origins of the franchise. It has nothing to do with making pokemon more obtainable, that's just a bonus that comes along, and which could be achieved by a number of ways otherwise.
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

Plus remakes were made to earn some extra cash and to expand development time for the next generation.

You combine the game engine of the most recent games with the plot of the original games, add a nice extra here and there (like Sevii Islands in FRLG or Pokewalker/Pokeathlon/Safari Zone/Battle Frontier in HGSS) and ta-da, you've got a sellable game that tranquilizes the mob calling for supplies (it's not that easy, I know, but way easier than developing a new engine and a new plot from scratch, not to mention some 100-150 new Pokemon, new characters/towns/routes etcetc).

Anyone else noticed that Junichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori headed the development of both DP and BW as Director and Art Director, respectively, but Shigeki Morimoto and Takao Unno took over when it came to HGSS and BW2? What do you think Masuda and Sugimori worked on in the meantime?

Remakes distract attention away from the new generation that is already about to rise in GameFreak's backrooms.

An additional reason especially for RBY and GSC remakes was most probably the disconnectivity between Gen2 and Gen3. Nowadays you are able to build up a team of Pokemon catched in all available regions, whereas your original Kanto and Johto Pokemon were excluded in times before remakes were established.

The only thing we can be sure of is that there will be main games between XY and the first Gen7 games, whether they will be Z, XY2, RSE remakes, RS2 or something completely different (DLC, if feasible?).

If Hoenn celebrates a comeback in Gen6, I hope for something analogous to BW2, too, but for now I thoroughly look forward to XY.
 
RE: Pokemon Third Generation remake

Just in case, FireRed and GreenLeaf got remade into HeartGold and SoulSilver, beacose you can access the region, and do all the stuff you can do in FireRed and LeafGreen.
